Overview

Risk disclosure

INVESTMENT INVOLVES RISKS. The value of the Fund can be volatile and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

  • Franklin NextStep Moderate Fund invests principally in Undertakings for Collective Investment in Transferable Securities and other open and closed-end Undertakings for Collective Investment, providing exposure to equity securities of any market capitalisation as well as fixed or floating-rate debt securities of issuers located anywhere in the world.
  • The Fund is subject to market risk, underlying investment funds risk, debt securities risk, asset allocation risk, emerging markets risk, equity risk, smaller and midsize companies risk, convertible securities risk, foreign currency risk, liquidity risk, valuation risk, derivative instruments risk, credit-linked securities risk, counterparty risk, restructuring companies risk, commodities related exposure risk, real assets risk and class hedging risk.
  • The Fund may at its discretion pay dividends out of the capital or out of gross income of the Fund while paying all or part of the Fund’s fees and expenses out of the capital of the Fund, which results in effectively paying dividends out of capital. Payment of dividends out of capital amounts to a return or withdrawal of part of an investor’s original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment. Any distributions involving payment of dividends out of the Fund’s capital or payment of dividends effectively out of the Fund’s capital (as the case may be) may result in an immediate reduction of the net asset value per share.
  • Investors should not invest based on this marketing material alone.  Offering documents should be read for further details, including the risk factors. Before you decide to invest, you should make sure the intermediary has explained to you that the Fund is suitable to you.
