Fund Specific Risks
Concentrated Porfolio - Thee fund may invest in a relatively smaller number of stocks. This stock concentration may carry more risk than funds spread across a larger number of companies.
Value of Investments - The value of investments, and any income can fall, as well as rise, so you could get back less than you invested. Neither capital nor income is guaranteed.
Investments Long Term - Investments should be regarded as long term and are not suitable for money which may be needed in the short term, you should always have a sufficient cash reserve.
Higher Risk - This fund is specifically aimed at sophisticated investors and is particularly high risk, because it concentrates on a region that may be exposed to unusual political or economic risks. You should only invest if you are comfortable with the specific risks pertaining to the fund in question. If you are not familiar with these you should ask us for a copy of the provider's key features and brochure.
Umbrella Liabilites - If the liabilities of one fund were to exceed its assets, the other funds within the scheme might have to transfer across money to cover the liabilities.
Returns Are Not Guaranteed - What you receive when you sell your investment is not guaranteed; it depends on how your investments perform.
Inflation - Inflation will reduce the real value of your investments in future.
Taxation and Tax Relief - Levels of taxation and tax relief are subject to change.
