Furthermore, we recommend that you consult an independent tax adviser in order to obtain information on the tax regulations relating to a specific investment in your legal jurisdiction and with regard to your personal circumstances.

As the funds are recognised (ie. registered) but not authorised in the UK, the UK Financial Services Authority's financial services compensation scheme does not apply to investments in the fund but the Financial Services Authority regulated firm approving this document for the purposes of UK regulation has taken reasonable steps to satisfy itself that Bellevue will deal in an honest and reliable way and is so satisfied.
Performance Past performance is not an indication or guarantee of the future performance of the investment. The value of investments may be subject to fluctuations and, under certain circumstances, investors may not get back the full amount invested. The performance data are calculated without taking account of commissions and costs that result from subscriptions and redemptions and commissions and costs have a negative impact on performance. Changes in foreign-exchange rates may also cause the value of investments to go up or down.
