Risk factors you should consider before investing: The value of investments and any income will fluctuate and investors may not get back the full amount invested. Where the Fund’s Investment Manager has expressed views and opinions in this fact sheet, these may change. Changes in exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the value, price, or income of the product. Whilst the Company aims to ensure the accuracy of the data contained in this webpage, it is provided for information purposes only. It should not be relied on as the basis for making an investment decision. Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks and expenses of any investment carefully before investing as described in the Company’s Prospectus.

The Fund invests in foreign markets which involve risks such as social and political instability, market illiquidity, currency fluctuations and limited regulation. Additionally, investing in emerging market countries may be less liquid and more volatile than securities markets in more developed markets or in companies that are less well-established and substantially smaller. These companies may often experience significant price volatility and potential lack of liquidity due to low trading volume of their securities. Substantial risks are involved in trading in OTC markets and there is no guarantee that the Fund will be able to realize the fair value of such securities due to their tendency to have limited liquidity and comparatively high price volatility. Investments in financial derivative instruments including futures, forward contracts and options may be highly volatile and have limited liquidity which could result in major losses to the Fund. Certain derivative instruments in which the Fund may invest are foreign exchange rate sensitive and could amplify risks.
