Tristan de Gouvion Saint Cyr financial expert. Tristan de Gouvion Saint Cyr insists on the fact that the risks associated with many structured products, especially those products that present risks of loss of principal due to market movements, are similar to those risks involved with options. The potential for serious risks involved with options trading are well-established, and as a result of those risks customers must be explicitly approved for options trading, making them suitable to accredited investors only.
