Important Information
Investors should not base investment decisions on this material alone. Please refer to the Prospectus for details including product features and the risk factors. Investment involves risks. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. There is no guarantee of the repayment of the principal. Investors should note:
Global X FTSE Greater China ETF (the “Fund”)’s investment objective is to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, closely correspond to the performance of the FTSE MPF Greater China Index (the “Index”).The Fund is subject to concentration risk as a result of tracking the performance of a single geographical region or country (Greater China). The Fund may likely be more volatile than a broad-based fund, such as a global equity fund, as it is more susceptible to fluctuations in value of the Index resulting from adverse conditions in the region.The Fund invests in certain emerging markets such as Mainland China and Taiwan. This may involve increased risks and special considerations not typically associated with investment in more developed markets, such as liquidity risks, currency risks/control, political and economic uncertainties, legal and taxation risks, settlement risks, custody risk and the likelihood of a high degree of volatility.Listed companies on the ChiNext market and/or STAR Board are usually of emerging nature with smaller operating scale. In particular, listed companies on ChiNext market and/or STAR Board are subject to higher fluctuation in stock prices and liquidity risks, Over-valuation risk, Differences in regulation, Delisting risk, and Concentration risk.The Fund may invest in mid-capitalisation companies, which may have lower liquidity and their prices are more volatile to adverse economic developments than those of larger capitalisation companies in general.The borrower may fail to return the securities in a timely manner or at all. The Fund may as a result suffer from a loss or delay when recovering the securities lent out. This may restrict the Fund’s ability in meeting delivery or payment obligations from redemption requests. As part of the securities lending transactions, there is a risk of shortfall of collateral value due to inaccurate pricing of the securities lent or change of value of securities lent. This may cause significant losses to the Fund.There are risks and uncertainties associated with the current Mainland China tax laws, regulations and practice in respect of capital gains realized via Stock Connect on the Fund’s investments in Mainland China (which may have retrospective effect). Any increased tax liabilities on the Fund may adversely affect the Fund’s value.The trading price of the Shares on the SEHK is driven by market factors such as the demand and supply of the Shares. Therefore, the Shares may trade at a substantial premium or discount to the Fund’s Net Asset Value.Payments of distributions out of capital or effectively out of capital amounts to a return or withdrawal of part of an investor’s original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment. Any such distributions may result in an immediate reduction in the Net Asset Value per Share of the Fund and will reduce the capital available for future investment.
