*** Abbey Life has assigned a risk classification to each fund as a guide to the degree of risk each fund represents. They are:
Secure: These funds provide a high level of safety to the amount invested and can be expected to offer relatively low growth.
Cautious: Such funds are expected to have a low risk of capital loss and have the potential to provide modest growth over the long term.
Balanced: These funds carry a risk of capital loss but have the potential for capital growth over the long term, but the capital value is likely to fluctuate.
Adventurous: These funds carry a significant risk of capital loss but have the potential for higher capital growth over the long term. They can be very volatile and are only suitable for investors who are prepared to
accept the high risk of capital loss.
****While investments in this fund are lower risk relative to other investment categories they do not guarantee total security of capital because scenarios can arise resulting in a reduction in the value of your investment. These scenarios include:
1. If interest rates rise the current market value of certain types of instruments held in the fund will drop.
2. A counterparty defaults leading to only a proportion of the value of an investment being recovered.
3. In very low interest rate environments, interest rates earned can be lower than the charges applied to your investment.
