Past performance is not a guide to future performance. The value of investments and the income from them may go down as well as up and you may not get back the original amount you invested. Inflation can erode the real value of capital.

Specific investments may have specific risks. You must ensure that you read and understand the documentation regarding any investment you choose to make; such as key features, risk factors, important information and product brochures.

Legislation and taxation may change in the future. Current tax advantages may change and could be withdrawn; tax rates and reliefs may change and depend on your individual circumstances.

Exchange rate changes may cause the value of overseas investments to go down as well as up.

Investment trusts may borrow to finance further investment (gearing). The use of gearing is likely to lead to volatility in the Net Asset Value (NAV) meaning that a relatively small movement, down or up, in the value of a trust’s assets will result in a magnified movement, in the same direction, of that NAV. This may mean that you could get back nothing at all.

If you are unsure whether an investment is right for you, you should seek professional advice.
