As with any investment where the underlying investments are shares and bonds, the price of units and the income from them can go down as well as up, and you may get back less than the amount originally invested. Investment in the Fund should be considered a medium to long term investment (5 years or more).
Past performance is no guarantee of future performance.
The performance of the Fund will depend on the investments selected by the fund advisers.
If you apply to invest in the Fund following investment advice, you will have the right to cancel your application. If you exercise the right to cancel, the amount returned may be less than the amount you invested if there has been a downward movement in the stock market from the date of investment to the date your instruction to cancel was received.
Inflation will reduce what you could buy in the future.
The regulatory and taxation regime under which the Fund operates may change in the future.
Worldwide Managed Fund
The fund invests in bonds and shares. Share and bond prices go up or down, meaning you may get back less than you invested.
As part of the Fund is invested overseas the value of your investment may be affected by changes in currency exchange rates.
Changes in interest rates may affect the value of the bonds held in the Fund. If interest rates go up, the value of bonds may fall. If interest rates go down, the value of bonds may rise.
A small part of the Fund may invest in emerging markets. This may involve greater risk in buying and selling investments, settlement arrangements and the safekeeping of the investments held.

The Fund will not track the FTSE® 100 Index exactly. In other words there will be a difference between the performance of the Fund and the FTSE® 100 Index.
High Income Fund
The fund invests in bonds. Bond prices go up or down, meaning you may get back less than you invested.
Changes in interest rates may affect the value of the bonds held in the Fund. If interest rates go up, the value of bonds may fall. If interest rates go down, the value of bonds may rise.
As part of the Fund is invested overseas the value of your investment may be affected by changes in currency exchange rates.
Part of the Fund may invest in emerging markets. This may involve greater risk in buying and selling investments, settlement arrangements and the safekeeping of the investments held.
