Important information
- Eastspring Investments - US Corporate Bond Fund is referred to as the ‘Fund’.
- The Fund invests in fixed income/debt securities and is subject to interest rate fluctuation and exposed to credit default, valuation and credit rating risks as well as credit risk of the counterparties with which it trades. Investment grade fixed income/debt securities are subject to the risks of credit rating downgrades.
- The Fund invests in a single country, and may be subject to greater volatility compared to more diversified funds.
- The Fund may incur substantial losses if it is unable to sell those investments with liquidity risks at opportune times or prices.
- The Fund may invest in instruments with loss absorption features, including contingent convertible bonds (CoCos) and senior non-preferred debts, which are subject to greater risks than traditional debt instruments, as they may be written off, written down, or converted to ordinary shares upon trigger events that may be outside the issuer’s control and are complex and difficult to predict, and which may result in significant or total reduction in value of such instruments. These instruments may also be exposed to liquidity, valuation and sector concentration risks. Coupon payments on CoCos are discretionary and may be cancelled by the issuer.
- The Fund may invest in asset backed, mortgage backed and commercial mortgage backed securities, all of which have limited recourse to the issuers. These securities are also generally illiquid and subject to market, credit and interest rate risks.
- The Fund may use financial derivatives instruments (FDIs) for hedging and efficient portfolio management purposes. Using FDIs may expose the Fund to market risk, management risk, credit risk, counterparty risk, liquidity risk, volatility risk, operational risk, leverage risk, valuation risk and over-the-counter transaction risk. The use of such instruments may be ineffective and the Fund may incur significant losses.
- The Fund's Board of Directors may, at its discretion, pay dividends out of capital or gross income while charging all or part of the fees and expenses to the Fund’s capital, resulting in higher distributable income. Thus, the Fund may effectively pay dividends out of capital. Payment of dividends out of capital (effectively or not) amounts to a return or withdrawal of part of an investor’s original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment, which will result in an immediate reduction of the net asset value per share.
- Investment involves risk. Investors should not rely solely on this document in making investment decision. Past performance information presented is not indicative of future performance.
