KEY RISKS What are the key risks associated with this product? Interest rate risk Interest rate risk refers to the impact of interest rate changes on the valuation of sukuk and Islamic liquid assets. When interest rates rise, sukuk prices generally decline and this may lower the market value of the fund’s investment in sukuk. The reverse applies when interest rates fall. The returns of the fund’s investments in lslamic liquid assets move in tandem with interest rates. A decline in interest rates will lower the returns of the fund’s investments in Islamic liquid assets. For example, when interest rates fall, Islamic deposit placements would be reinvested at lower interest rates and subsequently yield lower returns to the fund. Credit risk Credit risk relates to the creditworthiness of the issuer of the sukuk or Islamic liquid assets which is dependent on the issuer’s ability to make timely payments of profit and/or principal. In the event that the issuer of a sukuk or Islamic liquid assets defaults in the payment of profit and/or principal, the value of the fund may be adversely affected. Liquidity risk Liquidity risk refers to the ease of liquidating an asset depending on the asset’s volume traded in the market. If the fund holds assets that are illiquid, or are difficult to dispose of, the value of the fund will be negatively affected when it has to sell such assets at unfavourable prices. You are advised to read the fund’s prospectus and understand the risks involved and, if necessary, consult your professional adviser(s) before investing.
