Any local or foreign, natural or legal person may become the client of the EUROBROKER. A person may acquire the status of client, with all rights and obligations, by signing a Contract on Brokerage which is a general contract on providing services under the defined terms.

Immediately prior to the conclusion of the Contract, the broker is required to familiarize the future client with the Stock Exchange Rules approved by the Securities Commission (SC) and provide the client with the following forms:

• Questionnaire to define the client’s profile
• Form for classifying clients

Rules are used to closely define rights and obligations of both broker and client as well as procedures necessary for working with the client, the Banja Luka Stock Exchange and other institutions. The client is familiarized with the official pricelist of brokerage services which have been approved by the SC.
