Risk Disclosure of Investment Funds

• Investors should note that all investments involve risks (including the possibility of loss of the capital invested), prices or value of investment fund units may go up as well as down and past performance information presented is not indicative of future performance. Investors should read carefully and understand the relevant offering documents of the investment funds (including the fund details and full text of the risk factors stated therein) and the Notice to Customers for Fund Investing before making any investment decision. Investment funds are investment products and some may involve derivatives. Investors should carefully consider their own circumstances whether an investment is suitable for them in view of their own investment objectives, investment experience, preferred investment tenor, financial situation, risk tolerance abilities, tax implications and other needs, etc., and should understand the nature, terms and risks of the investment products. Investors should obtain independent professional advice if they have concerns about their investment.
• The risks for funds which are index funds include but not limited to:
  • Tracking error risk: There can be no assurance that the performance of the relevant fund will be identical to the performance of the relevant index. Factors such as the fees and expenses borne by the relevant fund, the time differences associated with portfolio re-balancing, the prices at which the constituent stocks of the relevant index are acquired or disposed by the relevant fund, the market condition at the relevant time of acquisition or disposal, the index-tracking strategies or financial derivative instruments used will affect the performance of such fund relative to the relevant index.
  • Passive investment risk: Fund manager does not have any discretion to select stocks individually or to take defensive positions in declining markets or changes in the composition of the index. Hence, any fall in the relevant index will result in corresponding fall in the value of the relevant fund. The composition of the relevant index may change and stocks currently comprising the relevant index may subsequently be delisted. Other stocks may also be added subsequently to become constituent stocks of the relevant index.
  • Concentration risk: The relevant fund may be concentrated in a single or particular sector(s)or single country/ region. The performance of the relevant fund could depend substantially on the performance of the relevant single or particular sector(s)/market(s) and the relevant fund is likely to be more volatile than a broad-based fund as it is more susceptible to adverse conditions in the relevant single or particular sector(s) / market (s). In seeking to reflect the weightings of constituent stocks of the relevant index, investments of the relevant fund may be concentrated in a single constituent stock or several constituent stocks. The performance of the relevant index and the fund may be significantly affected by the price fluctuation of one or several of the constituent stocks of the relevant index.
• The risks for funds which are bond funds, including but not limited to the credit/default risks of the issuers of the bonds in which the bond funds invest, interest rate risk and liquidity risk etc.

When you buy Structured Products, you will be relying on the creditworthiness of the Structured Products issuer and of no other person. You have no rights under the terms and conditions of the Structured Products against any issuer of any linked underlying(s). If the relevant Structured Products issuer becomes insolvent or default on its obligations under the Structured Products, in the worst case scenario, you could lose all of your investment.
• Not the same as investing in linked underlying(s) - Investing in Structured Products is not the same as investing in the linked underlying(s). Changes in the market price or level of any linked underlying(s) may not lead to a corresponding change in the market value of, or your potential gain or loss under, the Structured Products.
