Risks specific to Artemis Atlas Fund
- Risk to Capital All financial investments involve taking risk and the value of your investment may go down as well as up. This means your investment is not guaranteed and you may not get back as much as you put in. Any income from the investment is also likely to vary and cannot be guaranteed.
- Currency risk The fund’s assets may be priced in currencies other than the fund base currency. Changes in currency exchange rates can therefore affect the fund's value.
- Derivatives risk The fund may invest extensively in derivatives with the aim of profiting from falling (‘shorting’) as well as rising prices. Should the asset’s value vary in an unexpected way, the fund value could reduce. Refer to the investment policy in fund's prospectus for further details on how derivatives may be used.
- Leverage risk The fund may operate with a significant amount of leverage. Leverage occurs when the economic exposure created by the use of derivatives is greater than the amount invested. A leveraged portfolio may result in large fluctuations in its value and therefore entails a high degree of risk including the risk that losses may be substantial.
- Government and public securities risk The fund may invest more than 35% of its value in transferable securities and money market instruments issued or guaranteed by the United Kingdom, United States or Germany. Refer to the investment policy in the fund's prospectus for further details on how large exposures to government and public securities may be held.
- Counterparty risk Investments such as derivatives are made using financial contracts with third parties. Those third parties may fail to meet their obligations to the fund due to events beyond the fund's control. The fund's value could fall because of loss of monies owed by the counterparty and/or the cost of replacement financial contracts.
