Artificial Intelligence today can take many forms - from machine learning algorithms to self-driving cars - but one thing that most AI technologies share is their ability to act as disruptors.
As the focus moves from the US election to tariffs and trade wars, a supportive yet volatile market environment encourages investors to explore more “medium risk” opportunities in fixed income or private markets.
Allianz Global Investors Fund (“AGIF”) as an umbrella fund under the UCITS regulations has within it different sub-funds investing in fixed income securities, equities, and derivative instruments, each with a different investment objective and/or risk profile.

Some Sub-Funds may invest in single countries or industry sectors (in particular small/mid cap companies) which may reduce risk diversification. Some Sub-Funds are exposed to significant risks which include investment/general market, country and region, emerging market (such as Mainland China), creditworthiness/credit rating/downgrading, default, asset allocation, interest rate, volatility and liquidity, counterparty, sovereign debt, valuation, credit rating agency, company-specific, currency (in particular RMB), RMB debt securities and Mainland China tax risks.
Some Sub-Funds may invest in convertible bonds, high-yield, non-investment grade investments and unrated securities that may subject to higher risks (include volatility, loss of principal and interest, creditworthiness and downgrading, default, interest rate, general market and liquidity risks) and therefore may adversely impact the net asset value of the Sub-Funds. Convertibles will be exposed prepayment risk, equity movement and greater volatility than straight bond investments.
Some Sub-Funds may invest a significant portion of the assets in interest-bearing securities issued or guaranteed by a non-investment grade sovereign issuer (e.g. Philippines) and is subject to higher risks of liquidity, credit, concentration and default of the sovereign issuer as well as greater volatility and higher risk profile that may result in significant losses to the investors.
Some Sub-Funds may invest in European countries. The economic and financial difficulties in Europe may get worse and adversely affect the Sub-Funds (such as increased volatility, liquidity and currency risks associated with investments in Europe).
Some Sub-Funds may invest in the China A-Shares market, China B-Shares market and/or debt securities directly via the Stock Connect or the China Interbank Bond Market or Bond Connect and or other foreign access regimes and/or other permitted means and/or indirectly through all eligible instruments the qualified foreign institutional investor program regime and thus is subject to the associated risks (including quota limitations, change in rule and regulations, repatriation of the Fund’s monies, trade restrictions, clearing and settlement, China market volatility and uncertainty, China market volatility and uncertainty, potential clearing and/or settlement difficulties and, change in economic, social and political policy in the PRC and taxation Mainland China tax risks).

Also, some Sub-Funds may be particularly focusing on the GHG efficiency of the investee companies rather than their financial performance which may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance.
Some Sub-Funds may invest in share class with fixed distribution percentage (Class AMf). Investors should note that fixed distribution percentage is not guaranteed. The share class is not an alternative to fixed interest paying investment. The percentage of distributions paid by these share classes is unrelated to expected or past income or returns of these share classes or the Sub-Funds.

This may result in an immediate decrease in the NAV per share and the capital of the Sub-Fund available for investment in the future and capital growth may be reduced, in particular for hedged share classes for which the distribution amount and NAV of any hedged share classes (HSC) may be adversely affected by differences in the interests rates of the reference currency of the HSC and the base currency of the respective Sub-Fund. Dividend payments are applicable for Class A/AM/AMg/AMi/AMgi/AQ Dis (Annually/Monthly/Quarterly distribution) and for reference only but not guaranteed.

Before you start investing, it is important to understand what you want to achieve. What is your investment objective? Are you looking to achieve mainly capital growth or income or capital preservation? What is your investment horizon? Are you looking to invest for one year, three years, five years or over a longer period? What is your risk tolerance? To what extent are you prepared to endure capital losses or erosion of real wealth through inflation?
It is also important to consider what, in general, are the key features of the various investment funds that are available to you. To what extent are they likely to provide capital growth or income? What are the main factors that drive their performance? How risky are they relative to other kinds of funds?
Step 3 - Choosing the Suitable Fund Mix
A successful investment strategy requires the right mix of funds. The selected fund options should match your main investment objectives and investor profile. Often the better outcome will involve several types of investment funds. By investing in a combination of different funds, you may reduce the overall level of risk through diversification: as one investment is performing badly, another investment may be performing well. The gains and losses are offset under normal circumstances, thereby reducing the risk.

Generally, if an investor requires a higher potential return he must be prepared to expose himself to a higher level of risk.
Step 4 - Regular Review
Your investment needs may change over time and you should regularly review your financial situation and consider whether you need to change your strategy and fund investments. You might need to reassess your investment objective and your risk-taking level each time before choosing the investment strategy that meets your investment needs and then make changes to reflect your modified financial situation.
