Risk Statement: You should be aware of the risks associated with equity investment. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Returns will fluctuate with changing market conditions, taxes, exchange rates and sales charges. Performance claims on this website are represented as changes in net asset value in U.S. dollars and do not take into consideration taxes, sales or redemption fees. The yields vary according to the share class in which the investor invests. Due to the increasing rate of changes in tax regulations and the unpredictability in how tax authorities divergently interpret existing laws, these companies cannot assume any liability for the effects of any particular tax issues. Independent financial advice should be taken before entering into any financial transaction.

Important Information for UK investors: The Fund does not have a place of business in the United Kingdom and is not authorized under the Financial Services Act 1986 (the "Act"). As a consequence, the regulatory regime governing an investor's rights with respect to the Fund (and its similarly unauthorized overseas agents) will be different than that of the United Kingdom. Investors will not, for example, be entitled to compensation under the United Kingdom's Investors Compensation Scheme. The Fund is an unregulated collective investment scheme under the laws of the United Kingdom and, therefore, can be promoted in the United Kingdom only to persons in accordance with the Act and the Financial Services (promotion of Unregulated Schemes) Regulations 1991 (the "Regulations"). Accordingly, this information may not be distributed in the United Kingdom other than to persons authorized to carry on investment business under the Act, persons whose ordinary business involves the acquisition and disposal of property of the same kind as the property or a substantial part of the property in which the Fund invests and persons permitted to receive this information under the Regulations. In addition, this information may not be issued or passed on in the United Kingdom to any person, other than to persons to whom the information may otherwise lawfully be issued, unless that person is of a kind described in Article 11(3) of the Financial Services Act of 1986 (Investment Advertisements) (Exemptions) Order 1996 (as amended).
