Common use of COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT SCHEMES Clause in Contracts

COLLECTIVE INVESTMENT SCHEMES. Collective investment schemes (such as investment funds and open-ended investment companies) invest funds paid by purchasers of units or shares in the collective investment scheme in the various types of asset provided for in their rules or investment plans. As such, collective investment schemes generally allow unit holders and shareholders to achieve a high degree of diversification at a relatively low cost. Open-ended investment funds, for example, allow savers to invest or disinvest by buying or selling fund units on the basis of the value of a unit, plus or minus relevant commissions (the value of the unit being obtained by dividing the value of the entire portfolio managed by a Fund, calculated at market prices, by the number of units in circulation). Allowing the Local Manager to purchase units or shares in a collective investment scheme will expose the Adviser to the risks associated with the nature of the financial instruments in which the collective investment scheme invests and, where relevant, their concentration in a particular sector, country, region or asset class. Before allowing the Local Manager to invest in collective investment schemes, the Adviser should make itself fully aware of the risks associated with collective investment schemes, including without limitation, the general risks identified in paragraph 1 above.
