4 What are the Key Risks? Investments involve risks. Please refer to the offering document for details including the risk factors. Investment risk The Fund is an investment fund. There is no guarantee of the repayment of principal. The Fund s investment portfolio may fall in value due to any of the key risk factors below and therefore your investment in the Fund may suffer losses. Equity risk The Fund s investment in equity securities is subject to general market risks, whose value may fluctuate due to various factors, such as changes in investment sentiment, political and economic conditions and issuer-specific factors. ( ) Concentration risk The Fund s investments are concentrated in Brazil. The value of the Fund may be more volatile than that of a fund having a more diverse portfolio of investments. The value of the Fund may be more susceptible to adverse economic, political, policy, foreign exchange, liquidity, tax, legal or regulatory event affecting the Brazil market. Emerging market risk Investing in emerging market like Brazil involves a greater risk of loss than investing in more developed markets due to, among other factors, greater political, tax, economic, foreign exchange, liquidity, settlement, custodial, market volatility (such as interest rate and price volatility), legal and regulatory risks. Risk associated with small-capitalisation / mid-capitalisation companies The shares of small-capitalisation/ mid-capitalisation companies may have lower liquidity and their prices are generally more volatile, especially during adverse economic developments, than those of larger capitalisation companies in general. Derivative instrument risk Risks associated with financial derivative instruments include counterparty/credit risk, liquidity risk, valuation risk, volatility risk and over-thecounter transaction risk. The leverage element/component of a financial derivative instrument can result in a loss significantly greater than the amount invested in the financial derivative instrument by the Fund. Exposure to financial derivatives instruments may lead to a high risk of significant loss by the Fund. / /
