In general, Commodity Barrier Capital Protected Certificates (Dolphin CPN) can provide a participation in the positive performance of an underlying, as long as no barrier event occurs.

Additionally, this Commodity Barrier Capital Protected Certificate offers full capital protection by the issuer / guarantor on the redemption date.
The payout profile is for illustrative purposes only and is based on the assumption that no exceptional cancellation will occur, in accordance with the issuer’s product documentation.
