4. EXECUTION POLICY
4.1. We act as a principal and not as an agent on the Client’s behalf at all times. However, we reserve our rights to transmit the Clients orders for execution to third party liquidity providers, whereby contractually Kudo Trade (Mauritius) Ltd is the sole counterparty to your trades and any execution of orders is done in the Kudo Trade’s name. Therefore, Kudo Trade (Mauritius) Ltd is the sole execution venue for the execution of the Client’s orders.
4.2. The Client acknowledges that the transactions entered with Kudo Trade (Mauritius) Ltd
- are not undertaken on a recognised exchange;
- are over-the-counter (“OTC”) transactions;
- may expose the Client to greater risks comparatively than recognized exchange, such as counterparty risk arising from execution outside a trading venue.

- impose a penalty of 5% on the Client’s deposit;
if Kudo Trade (Mauritius) Ltd deems the Client is engaging, engaged or is under suspicion in bonus-hunting.
5.3. The following actions shall be considered as bonus-hunting:
- if the Client systematically closes positions with a profit of less than 10 points and still has non-turn over bonus; and/or
