Risks

Control risk

The Trustee does not control the day-to-day operations, including investment and disposition decisions, of the Fund. The Trustee relies on the Investment Manager of the Fund to conduct and manage the affairs of the Fund.

Investment risk

The Fund invests the available capital in financial instruments that can be deemed speculative investments. While there is a market for buying and selling these assets, the market for such assets in general is subject to fluctuations that are at times substantial. Higher volatility results in higher risk. Different financial instruments have different levels of volatility.

The price of a specific investment of the Fund may be affected by market risk (above) but also by factors which are specific to that investment; for example, a circumstance or change impacting a particular company, sector, region or type of product in which the Fund has invested.

Reduced or no returns

Some series of Units pay returns at the maturity of the units as a final value. Final values may be fixed from the outset or conditional or based on the performance of the Reference Asset. If there is insufficient performance of the Reference Asset, the Fund may not achieve its desired return form the Units. If the performance of the Reference Asset is negative, the Fund could lose some or all of the amount it has paid to acquire the Units.

Some series of Units may also pay coupons, either during the investment term or at maturity of the Units, or both. Where a coupon is dependent or conditional on the performance of the Reference Asset, there may be no coupon payable where the performance of the Reference Asset does not meet the specified level.
