Some funds on the website may make use of leverage facilities, derivatives or invest up to 100% of their total net assets in unlisted securities, possibly deriving from so-called developing (emerging) countries. This can involve specific risks of which investors should be aware (e.g. risks related to political and economic stability, currency exchange rates as well as foreign tax implications and accounting standards). Products and services may not be available to or suitable for you. Investment or other decisions should not be made solely on the basis of this website.

You may wish to consult an investment and/or tax advisor concerning your financial situation and tax obligations before making any investment decision.
