"Behind the winning fund in the category "Best Fund World Equities" in Germany, Austria and Switzerland is an extremely experienced and diverse portfolio management team. The portfolio managers have been working in the financial sector for an average of 30 years, 29 of them in the company. The investment firm pays close attention to heterogeneity in its team composition.

Risk factors you should consider before investing:

  • This material is not intended to provide investment advice or be considered a personal recommendation.
  • The value of investments and income from them can go down as well as up and you may lose some or all of your initial investment.
  • Past results are not a guide to future results.
  • If the currency in which you invest strengthens against the currency in which the underlying investments of the fund are made, the value of your investment will decrease. Currency hedging seeks to limit this, but there is no guarantee that hedging will be totally successful.
  • The Prospectus and Key Investor Information Document set out risks, which, depending on the fund, may include risks associated with investing in fixed income, derivatives, emerging markets and/or high-yield securities; emerging markets are volatile and may suffer from liquidity problems.
