Personal Investing

The capital value of investments and the income from them can go down as well as up and an investor may not get back the amount invested. Prospective investors should be aware of the underlying risks associated with investing in shares listed on certain stock markets which can be more volatile and less marketable than in more developed stock markets. The value of shares may rise or fall due to changes in the rate of exchange in the currency in which the funds are denominated if it is different from the investors' own currency. If you have any doubts at all about investing you should consult a financial adviser.
