This means that the price of the Friends Provident International fund will be different from the corresponding fund due to the cash holding and any differences in fund charges, but will move mainly in line with it. These mirror funds can only be accessed using Friends Provident International product wrappers. Please note that there are fees charged to investments in the mirror funds that will affect their return. For further details, please refer to the relevant fund information brochure.
