All statistics are quoted “bid to bid”, or its OEIC equivalent (in both cases with net dividends reinvested) to 30th June 2011. Past performance is not necessarily a guide to future performance and may not be repeated. The value of an investment, and any income from it, can fall as well as rise as a result of market and currency fluctuations and you may not get back the original amount invested.
Some of the funds listed above invest in emerging markets or Pacific Rim economies. These investments are more volatile and as such they expose the investor to greater risks than mature markets such as the UK. These risks include currency movements and exchange control restrictions, as well as political and economic instability in the countries concerned. In addition, under certain circumstances investors may suffer if the underlying investments become illiquid, or experience other problems due to the underdeveloped nature of the securities markets in some emerging countries.
On 21st April 2006 Aberdeen Far East Emerging Economies Unit Trust converted into Aberdeen Asia Pacific Fund. The ongoing fund has a similar investment objective to the historic fund. Historic performance figures quoted are those of Aberdeen Far East Emerging Economies Unit Trust, launched February 1987.
