Investors should be aware that past performance is not indicative of future performance. Returns can be volatile, reflecting rises and falls in the value of underlying investments. Investors should note that because investments in securities can be volatile and that their value may decline as well as appreciate, there can be no assurance that a sub-fund will be able to attain its objective. The price of units as well as the income therefrom may go down as well as up to reflect changes in the net asset value of a sub-fund. An investment in a sub-fund should not constitute a substantial proportion of an investment portfolio and may not be appropriate for all investors. An investment in a sub-fund will carry substantial and above average risk and should only be made by those persons who could sustain a loss on their investment.
Investment in a fund carries substantial and above average risk and is suitable only for investors who are in a position to lose their entire investment. The nature of a fund’s investments involves certain risks and a fund may utilise investment techniques such as leveraging and short selling which may carry additional risks. Potential investors should carefully consider, among others, the following factors:
Political risk; regulatory risk; taxation; potential concentration of investments; counterparty risk; foreign exchange/exchange control risks; settlement risk; currency exposure/unlisted securities and derivative risks; market risk; short selling; derivatives; custody risk; premium risk; valuation risk; performance fee; illiquidity; forward exchange contract risks; inadequate market liquidity and leverage.
