The Issuer issues the Certificates via the Custodian, and the proceeds from the acquisition of the Certificates received from the Holders will be included into the Compartment Assets. Thereupon, the Issuer acquires the Reference Assets and entrusts the Reference Account Custodian or the Custodian with their safekeeping. The Issuer receives interest payments and/or distributions and/or redemptions under the Reference Assets.
There is no capital protection under the Certificates and the Redemption Amount may also be zero (0), but holders cannot lose more than their capital investment.
Insolvency remoteness of this structure also protects the holders from issuer risk as the compartments are ringfenced and each compartment forms a distinct and independent part of the Company's estate which is segregated from other compartments of the Company and the general estate of the Company.

The agents have been appointed to carry out various activities from an operational perspective. These agents have their own insurance in place which covers their operations and any potential liability they may assume in the carrying out of their appointed duties. Hence the issuer has protection from the operational and business risks of its agents, which is important.

The exercise date (put in place for the investor) and the call date (put in place for the issuer) is simply a legal requirement that the issuer must comply with for open-ended (no maturity) products like these should either party want to wind it down permanently (once all capital has been repaid).
The certificates/notes have daily liquidity which means that you can buy/sell it daily (daily pricing is available) – exercise date does not speak to liquidity.
