You should plan to invest for the medium or long term – at least 5 years.
While a short term investment in corporate bonds would be a risky proposition, the risks are reduced over the longer term.
Balanced: Modest risk to capital as there may be some fluctuation in the value of the investment but potential for modest capital growth or income. Purchasing power of your money may be reduced by inflation.

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 dividend may fluctuate in value in money terms.
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.
