Important Information
Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.
Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).
Source of portfolio data: Broadridge. Source of performance data: FE fundinfo. We can’t predict the future. Past performance isn’t a guide to future performance. The figures shown are intended only to demonstrate performance history of the fund, after allowing for the impact of fund charges and further costs, but take no account of product charges, or any Annual Management Charge paid for by the deduction of units. Charges and further costs may vary in the future and may be higher than they are now. Fund performance is based upon the movement of the daily price and is shown as total return in GBP with net income reinvested. The value of your client’s investment can go down as well as up and the amount your client gets back may be less than they put in.

Important Information
Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.
Some funds may invest in ‘underlying’ funds or other investment vehicles. The performance of our fund, compared to what it’s invested in won’t be exactly the same. That can be due to additional charges, cash management (needed to help people to enter and leave our fund when they want), tax and the timing of investments (this is known as a fund’s dealing cycle, it varies between managers and can be several days).

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.
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.
Income Eroding Capital Growth
The fund focuses on providing an income, which can reduce the prospects for capital growth, and in some cases the capital value may fall.
Umbrella Liabilities
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.
Solvency of Bond Issuers
If the fund you choose invests in bonds there is a risk that the issuer may default, resulting in a loss to the portfolio.
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.
Important Information
Because of changes in exchange rates the value of your investment, as well as any money you take from it, can go down as well as up.
