What are the key risks associated with this product? Credit/Default Risk Investments in sukuk are subject to the risk of non-payment and/or untimely payment of the principal amount as well as the profits when they fall due. Credit/default risk is assessed based on the issuer s overall ability to meet its obligations when they fall due. For example, an issuer suffering an adverse change in its financial condition could have the credit rating of the sukuk lowered, leading to greater price volatility of the sukuk. A downgrade of the credit rating of a sukuk may also impact the sukuk s liquidity, making it more difficult to sell and greater volatility on the Fund s valuation. However, such risk can be mitigated through vigorous credit analysis and having regular updates on the business profile and the financial position of the sukuk issuer. Interest Rate Risk The risk refers to how the change in the interest rate environment affects the performance of the sukuk portfolio of the Fund. In the event of a rising interest rate environment, the valuation of sukuk in the secondary market may decrease, and vice versa. Generally, there is an inverse relationship between interest rate and sukuk valuation in the secondary market, where an increase of interest rate may lower the valuation of the sukuk in the secondary market. In addition, sukuk with longer maturity and lower profit rates are more sensitive to interest rate changes. This risk will be mitigated via the management of the duration of the sukuk portfolio. Please note that interest rate such as Overnight Policy Rate (OPR), will have an impact on the management of the Fund regardless of whether it is a conventional or Shariah-compliant fund. It does not in any way suggest that the Fund will invest in conventional financial instruments. Liquidity Risk This risk refers to the possibility that the sukuk and Islamic money market instruments held by the Fund cannot be readily sold at or near its fair value due to insufficient trading volume. This in turn may adversely affect the value of the Fund. To mitigate liquidity risk, the Manager will maintain a diversified asset allocation in terms of the tenure and issuer of the sukuk/islamic money market instruments. Furthermore, the Fund will maintain a minimum level of Islamic liquid assets to serve as buffer for meeting short term liquidity requirements. Please refer to the Master Prospectus and supplemental prospectus(es) (if any) for details. 2
