• The Fund's investments are concentrated in equities and fixed income securities which provide exposure to long-term investment themes relevant to global Megatrends. This may result in greater volatility than a more diverse portfolio of investments. The valuation of securities of companies relevant to global Megatrends may be subject to significant instability and fluctuations. The valuation of securities of such companies may be higher than those providing more traditional products or services, and the Fund may suffer a loss when there is a revaluation. The Fund’s investments in companies associated with technological innovation and benefiting from Megatrends may be affected by regulatory and technological developments. The Fund’s value may be adversely affected due to technological change and obsolescence, as well as loss or impairment of patent and intellectual property rights and/or licences on those companies. The evaluation methodology adopted by different investment managers may vary due to a lack of standardized taxonomy on themes or sectors relating to climate change and resource scarcity. Any future slowdowns or declines in the economy may impact the Fund’s investments in companies benefitting from emerging global wealth.
• The Fund is subject to risks relating to active thematic asset allocation strategy. The Fund is subject to risks of investing in other collective investment schemes (“CIS”) and underlying investments in equities, fixed income securities, cash and cash equivalents. The Fund invests in other CISs which may include those not regulated by the Securities and Futures Commission.
• The Fund is subject to risks relating to target risk strategy, currency risk, currency conversion risk including Renminbi denominated Classes, liquidity risk, valuation risk and volatility risk.
• Class 9 Units pay dividends gross of expenses and/or from capital at the Managers’ discretion and may include interest rate differentials arising from unit class currency hedging. Negative interest rate differentials may decrease the dividends paid. Paying dividends gross of expenses may result in more income being available for distribution; however these units may effectively pay dividends from capital – may amount to a partial return or withdrawal of an investor’s original investment or capital gains. All declared dividends result in an immediate reduction in the NAV price of the unit class on the ex-dividend date.
• The Fund may use derivatives for investment and hedging purposes. However, usage of derivatives will not be extensive. The Fund may suffer losses from its derivatives usage.
• The value of the Fund can be volatile and can go down substantially within a short period of time. It is possible that a certain amount of your investment could be lost.

MSCI Ratings are currently unavailable for this fund.
Business Involvement
Business Involvement
Business Involvement metrics can help investors gain a more comprehensive view of specific activities in which a fund may be exposed through its investments.
Business Involvement metrics are not indicative of a fund’s investment objective, and, unless otherwise stated in fund documentation and included within a fund’s investment objective, do not change a fund’s investment objective or constrain the fund’s investable universe, and there is no indication that an ESG or Impact focused investment strategy or exclusionary screens will be adopted by a fund. For more information regarding a fund's investment strategy, please see the fund's prospectus.
Review the MSCI methodology behind the Business Involvement metrics, using links below.
Business Involvement metrics are calculated by BlackRock using data from MSCI ESG Research which provides a profile of each company’s specific business involvement. BlackRock leverages this data to provide a summed up view across holdings and translates it to a fund's market value exposure to the listed Business Involvement areas above.
Business Involvement metrics are designed only to identify companies where MSCI has conducted research and identified as having involvement in the covered activity. As a result, it is possible there is additional involvement in these covered activities where MSCI does not have coverage. This information should not be used to produce comprehensive lists of companies without involvement. Business Involvement metrics are only displayed if at least 1% of the fund’s gross weight includes securities covered by MSCI ESG Research.
