Important information - investors should note that the views expressed may no longer be current and may have already been acted upon. All these funds invest in overseas markets to a varying degree, so the value of investments could be affected by changes in currency exchange rates depending on the exposure each fund has to those markets. The Stewart Investors Asia Pacific Leaders Sustainability Fund invests in emerging markets which can be more volatile than more developed markets. The Brown Advisory US Sustainable Growth Fund, the Stewart Investors Asia Pacific Leaders Sustainability Fund and Fidelity UK Select Fund invest in a relatively small number of companies and so may carry more risk than funds that are more diversified. The FP Foresight UK Infrastructure Income Fund, Fidelity Special Situations Fund and Fidelity UK Select Fund use financial derivative instruments for investment purposes, which may expose the funds to a higher degree of risk and can cause investments to experience larger than average price fluctuations. The Stewart Investors Asia Pacific Leaders Sustainability Fund may also use derivatives to reduce risk or to manage the Fund more efficiently. The FP Foresight UK Infrastructure Income Fund, Fidelity Special Situations Fund and Fidelity UK Select Fund use currency hedging. Currency hedging is used to substantially reduce the risk of losses from unfavourable exchange rate movements on holdings in currencies that differ from the dealing currency. Hedging also has the effect of limiting the potential for currency gains to be made. The FP Foresight UK Infrastructure Income Fund investment policy means it invests mainly in units in collective investment schemes. The Brown Advisory US Sustainable Growth Fund, Fidelity Special Situations Fund and Fidelity UK Select Fund have, or are likely to have, high volatility owing to its portfolio composition or the portfolio management techniques.
