Objective The Fund aims to outperform (after deduction of costs) the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, as stated in sterling by at least 2% per annum over rolling five-year periods. Policy The Fund will invest at least 90% in shares of emerging market companies. Emerging markets companies are companies which are listed, incorporated, domiciled or conducting a significant portion of their business in emerging markets and the Fund may invest in companies of any size or in any sector. Emerging markets will be determined by the investment manager at its sole discretion. The Fund may also invest in other transferable securities of emerging market companies and money market instruments. The Fund will be actively managed. Other Information You can sell some or all of your shares on any business day in the United Kingdom by contacting our Dealing Department by phone or post. Where properly completed documentation is received by post, shares will be sold at the next valuation point following receipt of the instruction. Income will be re-invested. No further shares will be purchased but the reinvestment will be reflected in the price of your existing accumulation shares. You are, however, deemed to have received the income for tax purposes. For further explanation and information see the investment objective and policy section of the Prospectus, which is available by contacting us. Recommendation: this Fund may not be appropriate for investors who plan to withdraw their money within five years.
