The posting of any prospectus or any other Content on this Site (including the results of any online calculators) is solely for convenience and informational purposes and should not be interpreted as a recommendation or opinion that you should make any purchase or sale or participate in any transaction.

All insurance or securities transactions require signed agreements between us and our customers, and the terms of those agreements are binding on the parties.
Forward-Looking Statements
Forward-looking statements represent only management’s beliefs regarding future performance, which is inherently uncertain. There are a variety of factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s or its parent’s control, which affect its operations, performance, business strategy and results and could cause its actual results and experience to differ materially from the expectations and objectives expressed in any forward-looking statements. These factors include, but are not limited to, actions and initiatives taken by current and potential competitors, general economic conditions, the effects of current, pending and future legislation, regulation and regulatory actions, and the other risks and uncertainties detailed in this report. Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements. We do not undertake any obligation to update such information after it is posted or to remove such information if it is not accurate or complete. You should, however, consult further disclosures the Company or its parent may make in future filings of its Annual Report or other filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission or the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets.
