Currency Exchange Risk Notice: Investments in currencies other than sterling face currency exchange risk. Fluctuating exchange rates can impact the value of investments in sterling, potentially resulting in losses even if the stock price rises in its original currency. Overseas stocks may also incur additional fees, tax implications, and may not have the same regulatory protections as UK-listed stocks.
