Awards & Recognition

Important Legal Information
Investments are subject to investment risks, fund value may go up as well as down and past performance is not indicative of future performance. The investment returns are denominated in fund currency. Investors investing in funds denominated in non-local currency should be aware of the risk of exchange rate fluctuations that may cause a loss of principal. Where a fund invests in emerging markets, this investment can be more volatile than an investment in developed markets. Investors should read the Explanatory Memorandum or Prospectus (including the risk factors) and especially the risk disclosure on investment in emerging markets before investing. Where a fund has transactions in derivatives so as to meet its investment objective, the net asset value of the fund may have a higher volatility due to these instruments and techniques being included in its scheme property and may involve a greater degree of risk than is the case with conventional securities. Please contact your financial advisor if you are in doubt of any information contained in this website.
