BOCI-Prudential Asset Management Company Background
BOCI-Prudential Asset Management Company Background Important Notes • Investment involves risk and the funds may not be suitable for everyone. Price of Units and the income generated from them (if any) may go down as well as up. Investors could face no returns and/or suffer significant loss related to the investments. • Investment in emerging markets involves special risks and considerations. • Each Sub-Fund under World Index Shares ETFs (the “Sub-Funds”) is an exchange traded fund which seeks to track the performance of its underlying index. The Sub-Funds are different from typical retail investment funds, in particular: (a) units may only be created and redeemed in Application Unit size (as defined in the relevant Prospectus) directly by Participating Dealer(s) or Eligible Investor(s) (as defined in the relevant Prospectus) where applicable; and (b) the Units in the Sub-Funds may trade at a premium or at a discount to the Net Asset Value of the Units. • In relation to W.I.S.E. – CSI 300 China Tracker®* (*This is a synthetic ETF), investors should note that: (i) although the Sub-Fund may invest directly in A Shares via the Manager’s QFII (Qualified Foreign Institutional Investor) investment quota allocated to the Sub-Fund from time to time, or via the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect※, it, at present, primarily invests in A Shares indirectly via investing in A Share access products (“AXPs”). Each AXP is a derivative instrument linked to an A Share or a basket of A Shares. The AXPs do not provide the Sub-Fund with any legal or equitable interest of any type in the underlying A Shares. There are counterparty risks in relation to a AXP issuer and the collateral provider; (ii) given that the issuance of the AXP(s) through the AXP issuer(s) and the Sub-Fund’s investments in A Shares through the Manager depend on the ability of the QFIIs (including the Manager) to buy and sell A Shares, any restrictions or changes in laws and regulations imposed by the PRC government on QFII’s operations may adversely affect the direct investment in A Shares by the Manager using its QFII investment quota and/or issuance of AXP(s) by the AXP issuer(s) and/or cause Units in the Sub-Fund to trade at a discount on the SEHK; (iii) the Sub-Fund’s direct investment in A Shares through the Manager’s QFII investment quota and the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect entails certain associated risks (please refer to the Prospectus for further details); and (iv) investment in the Sub-Fund may be subject to risks associated with changes in the PRC tax laws and such changes may have retrospective effect and may adversely affect the Sub-Fund. Please refer to the Prospectus for further details. • In relation to W.I.S.E. – SSE 50 China Tracker®, investors should note that: (i) the Sub-Fund, at present, invests directly in A Shares via the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect; (ii) in addition to the risks associated with the China market and risks relating to RMB, it is also subject to the additional risks associated with the Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect. Please refer to the Prospectus for further details; and (iii) investment in the Sub-Fund may be subject to risks associated with changes in the PRC tax laws and such changes may have retrospective effect and may adversely affect the Sub-Fund. Please refer to the Prospectus for further details. • In relation to W.I.S.E. – CSI HK Listed Mainland Consumption Tracker and W.I.S.E. – CSI HK Listed Mainland Real Estate Tracker, investors should note the relevant sector concentration risk. • The QFII products are subject to risks relating to QFII which include: risks associated with QFIIs rules and restrictions, risks regarding remittance and repatriation of funds and QFII investment quota risk and limitation on creation and redemption of units etc. (please refer to the offering document of the relevant fund for further details).
