Jupiter Merlin Worldwide Portfolio Acc

This factsheet should be viewed in conjunction with the Key Investor Information Document (KIID) as both provide important information. The KIID is accessible from the link on the right.

Factsheets contain information about the features of the fund such as the investment objective, fund region and past performance.

Some funds offer income units, accumulation units or both. The unit type you choose will affect the way income generated from the fund is treated. With income units, income is paid into your nominated account. With accumulation units income is retained within the fund, increasing the value of your holding.

All Investments carry an element of risk. In particular, the value of Investments and any income from them can go down as well as up and you may not get back what you originally invested.

In addition, investing in funds is subject to specific risks. Details of these risks are contained in the Key Investor Information Document which is designed to provide important information about funds as well as the risks involved.

Fund Objective

Risk and reward profile

risk chart

The Risk and Reward Indicator table demonstrates where the Fund ranks in terms of its potential risk and reward. The higher the rank the greater the potential reward but the greater the risk of losing money. It is based on past data, may change over time and may not be a reliable indication of the future risk profile of the Fund. The shaded area in the table below shows the Fund’s ranking on the Risk and Reward Indicator.
• The lowest category does not mean ‘no risk’. Some risk will still be present in funds with a risk and reward rating of 1.
• The Fund is in this category as it invests in a wide range of company shares, which carry a degree of risk.
• Investments can fall in value. You may get back less than you invest.
• Due to entry charges, you are less likely to see growth, or get back the amount invested, in the first few years.
• The value of your money will be eroded by inflation.
• Changes to currency exchange rates may cause the value of the Fund to fall, sometimes by a large amount.
