Important Risk Warning:
  • Investors should not only base on content below alone to make investment decisions. Investors should refer to fund's offering documents and read carefully the summary of the key features and risks specific to this fund stated in the fund factsheet prepared by the relevant fund house, before making any investment decision.
  • Unit Trusts are investment products and some may involve derivatives. The investment decision is yours but you should not invest in the Unit Trusts unless the intermediary who sells it to you has explained to you that the product is suitable for you having regard to your financial situation, investment experience and investment objectives.
  • Unit Trusts are NOT equivalent to time deposits.
  • Investment involves risks. Past performance is no guide to future performance of the funds. Value of the investments and the income/dividend generated can fluctuate and is not guaranteed.
  • In the worst case scenario, the value of the unit trusts may be worth substantially less than the original amount you have invested (and in an extreme case could be worth nothing).
  • The funds' investment may involve substantial market, currency, volatility, liquidity, regulatory and political risks.
  • If the funds invest in emerging markets, a single market or a limited number of geographical market(s) or industry sector(s) or smaller cap companies, the funds will be subject to higher degree of risk and are usually more sensitive to price movements.
  • If the funds invest in derivatives, additional risks will be involved, and the funds may be subject to higher volatility.
