Important Information
1. The Fund invests primarily (at least 70%) in equity securities of listed companies in Asia (excluding Japan), and using derivatives where appropriate.
2. The Fund is therefore exposed to risks related to equity, derivatives, emerging markets, concentration, smaller companies, currency, liquidity, hedging, class currency and currency hedged classes. RMB hedged class also exposes to risks associated with the RMB currency. RMB is currently not freely convertible and RMB convertibility from offshore RMB (CNH) to onshore RMB (CNY) is a managed currency process subject to foreign exchange control policies of and restrictions imposed by the Chinese government. There can be no assurance that RMB will not be subject to devaluation at some point. The Manager may, under extreme market conditions when there is not sufficient RMB for currency conversion and with the approval of the Trustee, pay redemption monies and/or distributions in USD.
