• A sub-fund may be subject to general investment and market risks, custody risks, settlement risks, equity investment risks, regulatory risk of equity markets, volatility risk, risk associated with small-capitalisation/mid-capitalisation companies; and risk of investing in IPO.

• The Manager or Directors (as the case maybe) may at its discretion make distribution from income and/or capital in respect of the distributing classes of a sub-fund. Distributions paid out of the capital amount to a return or withdrawal of part of the investors’ original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment. Any such distributions may result in an immediate reduction of the net asset value per unit (or share). “Net distributable income” means the net investment income (i.e. dividend income and interest income net of fees and expenses) attributable to the relevant distributing class and may also include net realised gains (if any) based on unaudited management accounts. However, “net distributable income” does not include net unrealised gains. Distribution is not guaranteed. Past distribution record is not an indicative of future distribution. A positive distribution yield does not imply a positive return.
