  • INVESTMENT INVOLVES RISKS. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
  • The Fund may invest in certain types of derivatives, which in general involve special risks and costs and, if leveraged, may magnify or otherwise increase investment losses to the Fund. In particular, the Fund may enter into options traded over-the-counter (or OTC options), which allows the Fund great flexibility to tailor the option to its needs. However OTC options generally involve greater risk than exchange-traded options. The Fund may also engage in currency hedging for the purpose of attempting to enhance the Fund’s return, which may not always be successful and may eliminate any chance for the Fund to benefit from favourable fluctuations in relevant foreign currencies. If the use of derivatives is extensive, this may increase the volatility of the Fund’s performance.
  • Investors should read and understand the Fund’s most current offering document, including details of risk factors relevant to the Fund and the “Types and Description of FDI” section, before making an investment in the Fund.
  • An investment in the Fund may not be suitable for all investors. The investment decision is yours but you should not invest in the Fund unless the intermediary who sells it to you has advised you that it is suitable for you and has explained why, including how buying it would be consistent with your investment objectives.
