Hang Seng Asian Growth and Income Fund

(Capitalised terms used herein but not otherwise defined will have the same meanings as defined in the Explanatory Memorandum of the Hang Seng Investment Series (the “Series”) and the Term Sheet of the Fund)

  • Hang Seng Asian Growth and Income Fund (the "Fund") invests primarily in a balanced portfolio consisting of equity and debt securities issued in the debt and securities markets in the Asia Pacific region (excluding Japan).
  • The asset allocation of the Fund is determined by the Manager and depends on the views of the Manager on fundamental economic and market conditions and investment trends across the globe. The dynamic asset allocation may not achieve the desired results under all circumstances and market conditions. The investments of the Fund may be periodically rebalanced and therefore the Fund may incur greater transaction costs than a fund with static allocation strategy.
  • The Fund is also subject to investment risks, equity market risks, risks associated with investing in fixed income instruments, risks of investing in other collective investment schemes, general risks of investments associated with an emerging market, concentration risk, general risks of investments associated with investments in the PRC, RMB currency and conversion risks, currency and exchange rate control risk and Risks for Funds which invest in Derivatives.
  • The Fund may generate additional income by collecting option premium from writing (selling) Call Options. These limits the Fund’s exposure to potential capital growth of the referenced securities to the strike price thereby limiting the overall return of the Fund.
  • The Manager may at its discretion pay dividend out of capital or effectively out of the capital of the Fund. Any such distributions may result in an immediate reduction in the Net Asset Value per Unit.
  • Investments involve risks and investors may lose substantial part of their investment in the Fund.

Investors should not only base on this material alone to make investment decisions, but should read the Fund’s Term Sheet, Product Key Facts Statements and the Explanatory Memorandum of the Series (including the full text of the risk factors stated therein) (collectively “Offering Documents”) in detail. If investors have any doubts about the contents of this material or about the Offering Documents, they should consult their investment adviser and obtain independent professional advice.
