3 IMPORTANT FUND INFORMATION 3 INVESTMENT RISK. Investing in a fund always means putting your money at some sort of risk. Your attitude to risk is key to choosing which fund, or mix of funds, is suitable for you. A fund that is higher risk generally means the potential return from that fund is higher, but also that the potential to lose money is higher. A higher risk fund may also be more volatile, meaning the fund may rise and fall more frequently, and by larger amounts. A lower risk fund generally means a lower potential return, but with less risk of losing money. It is usually less volatile, meaning the fund value is usually less likely to rise and fall as frequently, or by as much. GENERAL INVESTMENT RISKS The Investing with IPS document lists the general investment risk that you should be aware of before you decide to invest. This risk applies to all funds. The effect of this risk will vary between funds, depending on how the fund invests. RISK AND REWARD PROFILE The risk and reward profile calculated by the fund manager is shown on the KIID as a number on a standard scale based on the potential risk and also the potential reward of a fund. It allows comparison across most European investment funds using standard calculations based on the of fund you re comparing. It shows the volatility in the performance of each fund, giving you an idea of how much risk you re exposed to and how much a fund can rise and fall in value. The risk and reward profile is split into seven sections, so you can find funds that meet the appropriate level of risk for you. However, it doesn t allow you to compare the relative risk of two funds within the same section. The calculation is based on the rate at which the value of the fund has moved up and down in the past five years. It s important you regularly review the funds you hold to make sure you re comfortable with the risk and the funds are still suitable for your investment objectives.
