4 While a weaker dollar and recent tax cuts/spending heighten pricing pressure WEAKNESS IN THE US DOLLAR WILL LIKELY CONTINUE. The $1.5 trillion tax cut that President Trump signed into law late last year, combined with a looming agreement to increase federal spending by hundreds of billions of dollars, would deliver a larger short-term fiscal boost than President Barack Obama and Democrats packed into their $835 billion stimulus package in the Great Recession.

27 Important Information This presentation has been approved by Sarasin & Partners LLP of Juxon House, 100 St Paul s Churchyard, London, EC4M 8BU, a limited liability partnership registered in England & Wales with registered number OC which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority with firm reference number and passported under MiFID to provide investment services in Republic of Ireland. The investments of the funds are subject to normal market fluctuations. The value of the investments of the funds and the income from them can fall as well as rise and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. If investing in foreign currencies, the return in the investor s reference currency may increase or decrease as a result of currency fluctuations. Past performance is not a guide to future returns and may not be repeated. There is no minimum investment period, though we would recommend that you view your investment as a medium to long term one (i.e. 5 to 10 years). Frequent political and social unrest in Emerging Markets, and the high inflation and interest rates this tends to encourage, may lead to sharp swings in foreign currency markets and stock markets. There is also an inherent risk in the smaller size of many Emerging Markets, especially since this means restricted liquidity. Further risks to bear in mind are restrictions on foreigners making currency transactions or investments. For efficient portfolio management the Funds may invest in derivatives. The value of these investments may fluctuate significantly, but the overall intention of the use of derivative techniques is to reduce volatility of returns. The Funds may also invest in derivatives for investment purposes.
