Remarks:
1. The risk rating is defined using a 5-point risk scale with risk rating “1” representing the lowest risk and risk rating “5” representing the highest risk. The risk rating is derived based on a combination of quantitative and qualitative risk factors including price volatility, asset allocation and liquidity.
The following provides a general description of the risk rating categorisation.
1 = Low Risk: Minimal chance of losing a significant portion of your capital over the term of the investment (although this is not guaranteed). Expected to demonstrate minimal price fluctuations over short periods of time.
2 = Low to Medium Risk: Low chance of losing a significant portion of your capital over the term of the investment (although this is not guaranteed). Expected to demonstrate moderately low level of price fluctuations over short period of time.
3 = Medium Risk: Moderate chance of losing a significant portion of your capital over the term of the investment (although this is not guaranteed). Expected to demonstrate moderate level of price fluctuations over short period of time.
4 = Medium to High Risk: Moderately high chance of losing a significant portion of your capital over the term of the investment. Expected to demonstrate moderately high level of price fluctuations over short period of time.
5 = High Risk: High chance of losing a significant portion of your capital over the term of the investment. Expected to demonstrate high level of price fluctuations over short period of time.
The above risk ratings are based on data up to 09 May 2020.
The risk ratings are provided by HSBC Group Management Services Limited.
The above risk ratings are provided for reference only, normally reviewed at least annually and may be subject to change from time to time without any notice. The risk ratings or any changes will be made available in the Investment Performance Report. The risk ratings information provided above should not be regarded as investment advice.

Remarks:
- Cumulative performance is calculated based on the unit price of the last valuation day at the end of the quarter.
- Cumulative performance is calculated in the fund currency on the basis of NAV-to-NAV (net asset value).
- Declared Rate is declared annually at the end of the financial year. The year-to-date Declared Rate is determined based on the difference in the unit prices over the relevant period and is for reference only. For Capital Guaranteed Fund, both the Declared Rate and the year-to-date Declared Rate would not be negative.
When the Declared Rate of the year was declared as soon as practicable after 31 December each year, the value of each member’s account will be adjusted in the form of additional units in order to ensure that the return of that member’s investments in the fund for that year is in accordance to the Declared Rate. Conversely, the member would not be entitled to such additional units should the member’s investment is redeemed from the fund in the middle of a financial year, and the return of the member would be calculated according to the year-to-date Declared Rate which could be lesser than the Declared Rate. - The ORSO information provided on this web page is for reference only, which may be subject to adjustment or correction from time to time without any notice.
