You are about to purchase a product that is not simple and may be difficult to understand.
But that's stated (misleadingly) for every Investment Trust.
We have classified this product as class 4 out of 7, which is a medium risk class. This rates the potential losses from future performance at a medium level, and poor market conditions could impact the capacity to pay you.
That's probably risk as in volatility rather than risk as in losing your shirt. Again that seems a standard rating for almost every Investment Trust.
