Risk Factors
Concentrated Portfolio
Yes
Investments Long Term
Yes
Fund Specific Risks |
-
Charges to Capital - Part, or all of the periodic annual management fee(s) and expenses may be charged to
capital which could increase the potential for the capital value of your investment to be eroded. Your capital could
also decrease if income withdrawals exceed the growth rate of the fund(s).
-
Emerging Markets - The fund invests in emerging markets. Generally less well regulated than the UK. There
is an increased chance of political and economic instability with less reliable custody, dealing and settlement
arrangements. The market(s) can be less liquid. If a fund investing in markets is affected by currency exchange rates,
the investment could either increase or decrease. These investments therefore carry more risk.
-
Concentrated Portfolio - The 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.
-
Smaller Companies - The fund invests in smaller companies. Smaller companies shares can be more volatile
and less liquid than larger company shares, so smaller companies funds can carry more risk.
-
Sector Specific - The fund invests in specific sectors. Funds which invest in specific sectors may carry
more risk than those spread across a number of different sectors. They may assume higher risk, as markets/sectors can
be more volatile. In particular, gold, technology funds and other focused funds can suffer as the underlying stocks
can be more volatile and less liquid.
-
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.
-
Exchange Rate - This fund invests in securities outside the UK. The value of investments and any income from
them may therefore decrease or increase as a result of changes in exchange rates between currencies.
