1. The Funds’ sustainable investment focus carries the risk that the Funds may underperform funds that do not utilize a sustainable investment strategy. Further, the implementation of the sustainable investment strategy may result in foregoing opportunities to buy certain securities when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so, and/or selling securities when it might be disadvantageous to do so, which may adversely affect the Funds’ investment performance.
The funds provide access to innovative UBS Global Wealth Management Chief Investment Office Sustainable Strategic Asset Allocation, based on sustainable asset classes that maintain core asset allocation principles. Investors benefit from the investment selection and implementation expertise of UBS Asset Management. Together we put sustainability front and center aiming to continue to deliver sustainable and attractive risk-adjusted returns for each risk profile, but now doing so with a sustainability focus.
