It should be remembered that the value of shares and the income from them can go down as well as up and cannot be guaranteed. The funds and fund managers utilised within each Strategy may vary and full details are available within the prospectus. Much of the growth in the value of the Cautious, Conservative and Balanced strategies will be achieved through the generation of income, which will be distributed to shareholders and reinvested.

An investment in a currency other than the shareholder's own base currency or in a fund that invests in securities denominated in currencies other than its base currency will be subject to the movements of foreign exchange rates, which may cause an additional favourable or unfavourable change in value. Consequently, investors may, on selling their shares, receive an amount greater or less than their original investment.
