Past performance is not an indication of future performance. The value of investments may go down as well as up and investors may not get back the amount invested. The assets of the funds mentioned on this website may be in a variety of currencies and therefore movements in the values of currencies may also affect the value of an investor's holdings. Furthermore, the value of shares may be adversely affected by fluctuations in exchange rate between the investor's reference currency and the base currency of the fund.


The funds described on this website may be subject to higher risk and volatility than other funds and may not be suitable for all investors. Risks associated with each individual fund are detailed in the relevant fund's prospectus, which all prospective investors should read. Investments may only be made on the basis of the relevant prospectus and most recent annual financial statements, and semi-annual financial statements if published thereafter. Where available, copies of the relevant prospectus and financial statements can be obtained from this website.
