| Investment Risk / General Market Risk: The Sub-Fund is an investment fund. There is no guarantee of the repayment of principal. The instruments invested by theSub-Fund may fall in value. The Sub-Fund invests directly or indirectly in securities, and is exposed to various general trends and tendencies in themarkets, especially in the securities markets, which are partially attributable to irrational factors. Such factors could lead tosubstantial and longer-lasting drops in prices affecting the entire market. Securities from top-rated issuers are subject toessentially the same general market risk as other securities and assets. Creditworthiness Risk: The creditworthiness (solvency and willingness to pay) of the issuer of an asset in particular of a security or money-market instrument directly or indirectly held by a Sub-Fund may subsequently fall. This usually leads to a decrease in the price of theasset greater than that caused by general market fluctuations. Risk of Interest Rate Changes: To the extent that this Sub-Fund invests in interest-bearing securities, namely debt securities or convertible debt securities, itis exposed to interest rate fluctuations and credit risks, such as risk of default by or downgrading of issuers. If market interestrates rise, the value of the interest-bearing assets held by the Sub-Fund may decline substantially. This applies to an evengreater degree if this Sub-Fund also holds interest-bearing securities with a longer time to maturity and a lower nominalinterest rate. Derivatives Risk: The Sub-Fund may invest in derivatives, which may expose the fund to higher counterparty, liquidity and market risks. Given the leverage effect embedded in derivatives, in the worst case scenario, the entire value of your investment in the Sub-Fund may be lost. |
