Risk and performance notice

Capital investments are associated with risks, which include the potential loss of the capital invested. The prices, values and profits of capital investments can fall and rise. Investments in foreign currencies are also subject to exchange rate fluctuations. Details regarding the risks are described in the respective, current product documents which must be read carefully before investing in Swisscanto products.

Past performance is not an indicator of future value development and does not offer any guarantee for future success. The performance data have been calculated based on the reinvestment of any distribution of dividends and, in case of doubt, without taking into account the commissions and expenses charged at the time of the issue and redemption of units, which have a negative effect on performance. The calculation is performed in the product's currency and may rise or fall as a result of exchange rate fluctuations.

Source of fund documents

The sole binding basis for purchasing Swisscanto products is the current fund documents (e.g. fund agreements/contractual conditions, prospectuses, basic information sheets as well as annual reports), which can be obtained from www.swisscanto.com, from Swisscanto Fund Management Company Ltd., Bahnhofstrasse 9, CH-8001 Zurich (also the representative for Luxembourg-based Swisscanto products) or from all branch offices of Zürcher Kantonalbank.
