Risk Warning:
Your investments and any income from CFDs can go down as well as up. You can quickly lose more than your initial deposit. Please make sure you understand the risks. CFDs may not be suitable for everyone.
Managing your account
There are a couple of simple precautions you can take to help keep your Halifax CFD portfolio in order.
- Always check your contract notes and statements for discrepancies, so they can be reported immediately. It's wise to keep a written record of all trades to enable us to investigate any query.
- If any of your personal details change, please let us know so we can keep our records up-to-date.
- Remember to keep your Halifax CFD personal account number and any passwords confidential.
Please note, dividends on UK equities will be paid or received at 90% of the dividend amount. For non-UK equities you will generally receive 85% on long positions and pay 100% on short positions. However this may vary for some currencies and you should contact Halifax CFDs trading desk if you require further information.
