Important Notice and Risk Disclosure

Investment involves risks and the price of investment products may fluctuate or even become worthless. Past record is not an indicator of future performance. Losses may be incurred rather than making a profit as a result of investment. Investment funds which invest in certain markets (e.g. Emerging Market) may involve a higher degree of investment risks.

Certain investment funds may use financial derivative instruments to meet their investment objectives (please refer to respective offering document for detailed information), thus entailing higher volatility in net asset value. You should carefully and independently consider whether the investment products are suitable for you in light of your investment experience, objectives, financial position and risk profile.

The respective fund management company is the only person quoting prices and counterparty for the fund(s) under its management. You should therefore carefully consider the liquidity risk involved.
