Risks factors

  • Please remember the value of your investment and any income from it may fall as well as rise and is not guaranteed.
  • You may get back less than you invest.
  • Although there is no fixed term you should consider ISA and unit trust investments to be medium to long term, ideally five years or more.
  • The tax efficiency of ISAs is based on current rules. The current tax situation may not be maintained. The benefit of the tax treatment depends on individual circumstances.
  • The fund may invest overseas. Changes in exchange rates between currencies may cause the value of your investment and the level of any income to rise or fall.
  • Each trust has its own individual risks detailed in the individual 'Key Investor Information' documents. More general information can be found in 'Additional Fund Information' and 'A Guide to Investing with Us'. Before you decide to invest you must read these documents.
