6) The Index is a new index. The Index has minimal operating history by which investors can evaluate its previous performance. There can be no assurance as to the performance of the Index. The Sub-Fund may be riskier than other exchange traded funds tracking more established indices with longer operating history.
7) As the Sub-Fund's investments are concentrated in securities of Biopharmaceuticals companies in Hong Kong and the United States, and those companies may significantly be impacted by technological changes, increased governmental regulations and intense competition from competitors, the Sub-Fund is subject to sector and geographical concentration risks and its Net Asset Value is therefore likely to be more volatile than a broad-based fund.
8) You should not invest in the Sub-Fund unless the intermediary who sells it to you has explained to you that the Sub-Fund is suitable for you having regard to your financial situation, investment experience and objectives.
9) Investors should not invest in the Sub-Fund based on this document alone. Before making any investment decision, the investor should read the Sub-Fund’s offering documents carefully including the risk factors.
