  2. Investment Tools and Model Predictions

    Although Sankore carefully evaluates potential returns based on historic performance, Sankore makes no representation regarding the likelihood or probability that any actual or proposed account allocation will in fact achieve a particular investment outcome or goal. Past performance is not a guarantee of future success, and in fact volatility means that returns in any period may be far above or below those of previous period. Some users have investment results that materially differ from those indicated by our investment tools and projections. Investments made on the Platform may lose value. Sankore is unable to predict or forecast market fluctuations or other uncertainties that may affect the value of any investment.

    Model predictions are inherently limited in that they do not represent actual trading nor material economic or market factors that might have had an impact on the Platform's advice. Portfolio performance projected are based on the Platform's current recommended portfolios and, for periods that pre-date the issuance of funds in our current recommended portfolios, broad market indexes. While "Ola" provides helpful investing guidance, you must carefully consider the appropriateness of the proposed investments in light of your ow n personal financial circumstances, including cash flow needs, tax circumstances, or other complex or subjective concerns.

    You are urged to use all available resources to educate yourself about investing in general, as well as the investments and the overall composition of your account. Additionally, market conditions and your personal financial circumstances may change – perhaps suddenly or gradually over time. Monitoring and adjusting your account to suit changing circumstances is your responsibility, and it is recommended that you reassess any investing program on a regular basis to ensure that it remains consistent with your current financial resources and investment objectives.

    Subject to your subscription preference and the clear directives on the platform ,Sankore may at its discretion, whether discretely or commingled with the resources of other persons, invest, convert from one form to another, sell, re-invest and generally manage on your behalf any funds, securities or other assets comprised in or attributable to your account or use of the Platform.

  3. Investment Liquidation Policy

    In the event that you request an early liquidation of your investment before the maturity of your investment, you may be charged a liquidation fee on the amount being redeemed. A liquidation request before a third of the investment tenor has elapsed will attract a 50% penalty of the entire interest accrued, while a 15% penalty will be charged for a liquidation request made after a third of the investment tenor has elapsed. Matured funds will be automatically moved to your cash wallet, and you can choose to withdraw or re-invest.
