Investment objective and risk profile JPMorgan Claverhouse Investment Trust plc (the Company) Investment objective The Company aims to provide a combination of capital and income growth from a portfolio consisting mostly of companies listed on the London Stock Exchange. The Company s portfolio consists of between 60 and 80 individual equities in which the Manager has high conviction. The company has the ability to use borrowing to gear the portfolio within the range of 5% net cash to 20% geared in normal market conditions. Risk profile The value of your investment may fall as well as rise and you may get back less than you originally invested. Where permitted, a trust may invest in other investment trusts that utilise gearing (borrowing), which will exaggerate market movements both up and down. Dividend income payments are not guaranteed and may fluctuate. This fund may use derivatives for investment purposes or for efficient portfolio Management. Derivatives are complex and trusts that use them for investment purposes may be more volatile. These trusts are considered to be higher risk than trusts that invest only in shares. External factors may cause an entire asset class to decline in value. Prices and values of all shares or all bonds could decline at the same time, or fluctuate in response to the performance of individual companies and general market conditions. This trust may utilise gearing (borrowing) which will exaggerate market movements both up and down. The trust may invest in smaller company shares, which can be more unpredictable and less liquid than shares of larger companies. The share price may trade at a discount to the Net Asset Value of the company. The single market in which the Trust primarily invests, in this case the UK, may be subject to particular political and economic risks and, as a result, the trust may be more volatile than more broadly diversified trusts. The key risks facing the Company and the mechanisms in place to monitor and measure these risks are set out in the Company s annual report, a copy of which is available from its website, www.jpmclaverhouse.co.uk. 22 FOR AGM USE ONLY NOT FOR FURTHER PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION
