General Risk Factors
- The portfolios referred to in this website may invest in equity, fixed-income securities and/or derivatives. Each portfolio may have a different risk profile.
- Investment involves risk and investor may lose the entire investment. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. All charts, data, opinions, estimates and other information are provided as of the date of this document and may be subject to change without notice.
- Certain portfolios may use financial derivative instruments (FDI) extensively for investment, efficient portfolio management and hedging purposes. Risks associated with FDI include counterparty/credit risk, liquidity risk, valuation risk, volatility risks and over-the-counter transaction risks. The leverage element/component of an FDI can result in a loss significantly greater than the amount invested in the FDI by the portfolio. Exposure to FDI may lead to a high risk of significant loss by the portfolio.
- Certain portfolios may have a net leveraged exposure of more than 100% of the NAV of the portfolio. This will further magnify any potential negative impact of any change in the value of the underlying asset on the portfolio and also increase the volatility of the portfolio’s price and may lead to significant losses.
- In respect of Distributing Shares, the portfolios may at its discretion pay dividends out of the capital of the portfolios. Dividends paid out of capital amount to a return or withdrawal of part of an investor’s original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment. Such dividends may result in an immediate decrease in the net asset value of the relevant shares.
- Investors should not solely rely on information on this website to make any investment decision. Please refer to the offering documents for details including the risk factors before making any investment decisions.
- Exchange rate fluctuations may affect the value of an investment and any income derived from it.
- Dividends and capital gains on securities issued in the relevant portfolios may be subject to withholding taxes imposed by the countries in which each particular fund invests.
- Some portfolios which are invested in emerging markets may also involve a higher degree of risk and are usually more sensitive to price movements relative to the developed markets. Investors should read the offering documents for details and the risk factors, in particular those associated with investments in emerging markets.
- Some portfolios invest primarily in a single market or sector or in small-sized companies. These investments are subject to higher concentration risk and are more volatile than funds following a more diversified policy. Those portfolios which are invested in smaller companies may involve a higher degree of risk and are usually more sensitive to price movements.
- Please note that this website has not been reviewed by the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission.
