- The Fund aims at long-term capital growth and income by investing in debt securities of Asian bond markets denominated in EUR, USD, GBP, JPY, AUD, NZD or any Asian currency in accordance with environmental and social characteristics. With the adoption of the Sustainability Key Performance Indicator Strategy (Relative) (“KPI Strategy (Relative)”), the Fund aims to achieve the reduction in greenhouse gas emissions (“GHG”) of the Fund’s portfolio which shall be at least 20% lower than that of its benchmark index within the same period (“Sustainability KPI”).
- The Fund is exposed to significant risks of investment/general market, country and region, interest rate, creditworthiness/credit rating/downgrading, default, valuation, sovereign debt, emerging market, RMB debt securities, currency (such as exchange controls, in particular RMB), and the adverse impact on RMB share classes due to currency depreciation.
- The Fund is exposed to sustainable investment risks relating to KPI Strategy (Relative) (such as foregoing opportunities to buy certain securities when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so, and/or selling securities when it might be disadvantageous to do so or relying on information and data from third party ESG research data providers and internal analyses which may be subjective, incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable). The Fund focuses on the Sustainability KPI which may reduce risk diversifications and may be more volatile compared to broadly based funds. Also, the Fund may be particularly focusing on the GHG emission efficiency of the investee companies rather than their financial performance which may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance.
- Investing in share class with fixed distribution percentage (Class AMf) is not an alternative to fixed interest paying investment. Investors should note that fixed distribution percentage is not guaranteed. The percentage of distributions paid by these share classes is unrelated to expected or past income or returns of these share classes or the Fund. Distribution will continue even the fund has negative returns and may adversely impact the net asset value of the Fund. Positive distribution yield does not imply positive return.
- The Fund may invest in high-yield (non-investment grade and unrated) investments and convertible bonds which may subject to higher risks, such as 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 Fund. Convertibles may also expose to risks such as prepayment, equity movement and greater volatility than straight bond investments.
- The Fund may invest in financial derivative instruments (“FDI”) which may expose to higher leverage, counterparty, liquidity, valuation, volatility, market and over the counter transaction risks. The Fund’s net derivative exposure may be up to 50% of the Fund’s net asset value.
- This investment may involve risks that could result in loss of part or entire amount of investors’ investment.
- In making investment decisions, investors should not rely solely on this material.
- Note: Dividend payments may, at the sole discretion of the Investment Manager, be made out of the Fund’s capital or effectively out of the Fund’s capital which represents a return or withdrawal of part of the amount investors originally invested and/or capital gains attributable to the original investment. This may result in an immediate decrease in the NAV per share and the capital of the 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 Fund.
