What does this risk indicator mean?
The above risk indicator ranks potential risk and reward and is based on medium-term volatility (how sharply the Sub-Fund’s actual
or estimated unit price has gone up and down over five years). Historical data, such as that used in calculating this synthetic
indicator, may not be a reliable indication of the future risk profile of the Sub-Fund. The Sub-Fund's risk indicator is not guaranteed
and may change over time. The Sub-Fund’s risk category reflects the fact that as an asset class, equities tend to be more volatile
than money market securities or bonds. For un-hedged currency classes, exchange rate movements may affect the risk indicator
where the currency of the underlying investments differs from the currency of the unit class.
Additional key risks:
The risk indicator reflects market conditions of recent years and may not adequately capture the following additional key risks of the
Sub-Fund:
Liquidity risk: In adverse market conditions, securities that are liquid may become difficult to value, buy or sell, which could affect the
Sub-Fund’s ability to process redemption requests.
Operational risk: Losses may occur due to human error or omission, process errors, system disruptions or external events.
Derivatives risk: Derivatives create leverage in the Sub-Fund and may cause movements in the value of the underlying investments to
amplify gains or losses to the Sub-Fund.
Emerging market risk: Some of the countries invested in may carry higher political, legal, economic and liquidity risks than
investments in more developed countries.
