What should I know before investing?
Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against market loss.
The program manager(s) may, to a limited extent, invest in other securities entailing additional risks beyond those highlighted in this material. All investments involve risk, including possible loss of principal. The investment process may change over time. The characteristics set forth above are intended as a general illustration of some of the criteria the strategy team considers in selecting securities for client portfolios. Not all investments in a client's portfolio will meet such criteria.
Investments may be made in American Depositary Receipts and U.S.-traded ordinary shares of non-U.S. companies in developed and emerging markets, which involve risks in addition to those ordinarily associated with investing in domestic securities. These risks include the potentially negative effects of currency fluctuations, political and economic developments, foreign taxation and differences in auditing and other financial standards, and are magnified in emerging markets. Investments in mid- and small-cap companies tend to involve greater risk than investments in large-cap companies.
