RISKS
COMPANY SPECIFIC RISK
This risk refers to the individual risk of the respective companies issuing securities. This risk could be a result of changes to the business performance of the company, consumer tastes and demand, lawsuits, competitive operating environment and management practices. Developments in a particular company which the Fund has invested in would result in fluctuations in the share price of that company and thus the value of the Fund's investments. This risk is mitigated by diversification in a portfolio comprised of stocks of many companies.
WARRANTS INVESTMENT RISK
The value of warrants will depend on the pricing of the underlying security whereby the growth and performance prospect of the underlying security would consequentially affect the value of the warrants. In addition, the value of the warrants may decrease exponentially as the warrants approach their maturity date and potential gains from a favourable price movement of the underlying may be offset by aggressive time decay. The Manager may consider unwinding these warrants if there are material adverse changes to their value to mitigate the risk.
COUNTRY RISK
This risk refers to the risks of investing in foreign markets. Emerging markets may have relatively underdeveloped capital markets, less stringent regulatory and disclosure standards, concentration in only a few industries, greater adverse political, social and economic risks and general lack of liquidity of securities. The risk of expropriation, nationalisation, exchange control restrictions, confiscatory taxation and limitations on the use or removal of funds also exist in emerging markets. This risk may be mitigated by conducting thorough research on the respective markets, their regulatory framework, economics, companies, politics and social conditions as well as minimising or omitting investments in markets that are economically or politically unstable or lack a regulatory financial framework and adequate investor protection legislation.
CURRENCY RISK
As the investments of the Fund may be denominated in foreign currencies, the Fund is exposed to currencies fluctuation risks. Such investments are impacted by any fluctuation in the exchange rate of the foreign currencies as to RM. If the foreign currencies in which the investments are denominated depreciate against the RM, the NAV may be adversely affected and vice versa. Investors should also note that any gains or losses arising from the fluctuation of the exchange rate may further increase or decrease the returns of their investments.
