Risks for investing in Euro inflation-linked bonds:The Fund will invest in inflation-linked bonds and other inflation-linked debt instruments denominated in Euro. A lower inflation rate than expected will lead to an underperformance of inflation-linked bonds in comparison to conventional bonds. The European inflation-linked bond market is currently relatively small. If there are major changes on the demand or supply side, this could have a more significant impact than on mature markets. Besides, the value of the assets of the Fund may be affected by uncertainties such as fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Credit risk:Investment in bonds or other fixed income securities are subject to the risk that issuers not make payments on such securities. An issuer suffering from an adverse change in its financial condition could lower the quality of a security leading to greater price volatility on that security. Interest rate risk:The bonds or fixed income securities that the Fund invests in may fall in value if the interest rates change. Longer term debt securities are usually more sensitive to interest rate changes. Investment risk:There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. There is no guarantee of the repayment of principal. The instruments invested by the Fund may fall in value. |
