KEY FEATURES AND RISKS:

  • W.I.S.E. - Nasdaq China New Economy Companies ESG Index Tracker (formerly known as "W.I.S.E. – Nasdaq Overseas China New Economy Companies Top 50 Index Tracker") (the "Sub-Fund") is an index-tracking exchange traded fund which seeks to track the performance of the Nasdaq China New Economy Companies Top 50 ESGTM Index (formerly known as "Nasdaq Overseas China New Economy Companies Top 50 IndexSM") (the "Underlying Index"). The Sub-Fund primarily invests (not less than 70% of its NAV) in constituent securities of the Underlying Index ("Index Securities") that are commensurate with the Sub-Fund's focus on environment, social and governance ("ESG").
  • The Underlying Index consists of 50 constituent securities listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited ("SEHK") and included in the Nasdaq Global Index (NQGI). The constituent securities of the Underlying Index must satisfy, amongst others, certain ESG criteria, which are described in details in Appendix I to the Prospectus of the Sub-Fund. The Underlying Index does not have A shares.
  • The Underlying Index is a modified ESG risk rating score-adjusted market capitalization weighted index which is designed to capture the new drivers of the China Economy by measuring the performance of the 50 largest companies from China in certain sectors. Companies are evaluated on the basis of their business activities, controversies and ESG risk ratings and weights modified on the basis of their ESG risk ratings assigned by Sustainalytics^.
  • Investment involves risks and the Sub-Fund may not be suitable for everyone. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. The Sub-Fund is subject to market and exchange rate fluctuations and to the risks inherent in all investments. Price of Units and the income (if any) generated from the Sub-Fund may go down as well as up. Investors could face no returns and/or suffer significant loss related to the investments. There is no guarantee in respect of repayment of principal.
  • The key risks to which the Sub-Fund is subject to include: general investment risk, ESG investment policy risk, concentration / PRC market risk/ emerging market risk, passive investment risk, tracking error risk, trading risk, equity market risk, currency risk, termination risk, reliance on market maker risks and risk in relation to distribution.
  • The Manager will normally make distributions out of net income received or receivable by the Sub-Fund. However, in the event that the net income is insufficient to pay the distributions that it declares, the Manager may also, in its absolute discretion, determine that distributions be paid out of the capital of the Sub-Fund, or the Manager may, in its discretion, pay distributions out of its gross income while charging/ paying all or part of its fees and expenses to/ out of the capital of the Sub-Fund, resulting in an increase in distributable income for the payment of distributions by the Sub-Fund and therefore, the Sub-Fund may effectively pay distributions out of capital. This may reduce the capital that the Sub-Fund has available for investment in future and may constrain capital growth.
  • Investors should be aware that in circumstances where distributions are paid out of capital or effectively out of capital, this amounts to a return or withdrawal of part of the amount investors originally invested or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment. Any distributions involving payment of distributions out of capital or payment of distributions effectively out of capital (as the case may be) may result in an immediate decrease in the Net Asset Value per Unit.
  • Please refer to the offering document of the Sub-Fund for further details including investment objectives and policies, charges and expenses, risk factors, and the arrangement in the event that the Sub-Fund is delisted, before making any investment decision.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION:

 

Investment involves risks. The Sub-Fund is subject to market fluctuations and exchange rate fluctuations and to the risks inherent in all investments. Investment in emerging markets involves special risks and considerations. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Price of Units and the income generated from them (if any) may go down as well as up. Investors should, before investing in the Sub-Fund, carefully read the Prospectus of the Sub-Fund for further details including product features and risk factors, and the arrangement in the event that the Sub-Fund is delisted. Investors should also note that the Sub-Fund is different from a typical retail investment fund offered to the public in Hong Kong, in particular:


a.

Such other investors may only make a request (and if such investor is a retail investor, through a stockbroker which has opened an account with a Participating Dealer) to create or redeem Units in Application Unit sizes through a Participating Dealer which reserves the right to refuse to accept a request from an investor to create or redeem Units under exceptional circumstances. Alternatively, investors may realize the value of their Units by selling their Units through an intermediary such as a stockbroker on the SEHK, and there is a risk that dealings on the SEHK may be suspended;


b. There is risk related to divergence between the market price of the Units and the NAV of the Sub-Fund. The market price of the Units traded on the SEHK is determined not only by the NAV of the Sub-Fund but also by other factors such as the supply of and demand for the Units in the SEHK; and


c. The Units may trade at a substantial premium or discount to the Sub-Fund's NAV.


* Minimum 780,000 Units (or multiples thereof). Investors may buy or sell Units of the Sub-Fund through an intermediary such as a Stockbroker on the SEHK. The Trading Board Lot Size is 100 Units.
