Barclays Wealth Global Markets 4 B 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.

Risk and reward profile

risk chart

The risk and reward category is calculated using historical data which may not be a reliable indicator of the Fund’s future risk profile.
The risk and reward category may shift over time and is not a target or a guarantee.
The lowest category (i.e. Category 1) does not mean a risk-free investment.
The Fund is in Category 6 because of the high range and frequency of price movements (volatility) of the underlying investments in which the Fund invests.
The following are additional risks not covered by the risk and reward category.
The underlying funds into which the Fund invest may invest in less economically developed (known as emerging) markets which can involve greater risks than well developed economies. Amongst other issues, the level of government supervision and market regulation may be less than in more developed economies and could affect the value of your investment. Investment in emerging markets also increases the risk of settlement default.
The Fund may use derivatives for various reasons, including to try to reduce the effect of currency fluctuations between the currency of its assets and the base currency of the Fund, or to reduce the effect of market or interest rate movements (known as hedging). The effectiveness of any hedging strategy is not guaranteed to succeed and may prevent the Fund from benefitting from an increase in value of a particular currency.
Fluctuations in interest rates may affect the value of your investment.
The Fund may invest a large part of its assets in other funds for which investment decisions are made independently of the Fund.
Investments held by other funds may be denominated in a currency other than the currency of the shares in the Fund and/or the currency of your investment. Currency fluctuations may affect the value of your investment. Investment in other funds may also lead to duplication of fees and commissions.
Future legal or regulatory change could have a substantial adverse effect on the fund and your investment.
Bonds are interest rate sensitive, meaning that the range and frequency of price movements may be significant due to various factors, including changes in interest rates, the creditworthiness of the issuer and the ease with which similar investments may be bought or sold (liquidity).
Stock markets can be volatile, meaning that the prices of shares held by the Fund can change quickly and substantially. The Fund is not guaranteed and your investment is at risk. You may lose some or all of your investment.
More information in relation to risks in general may be found in the "Risk Factors" section of the prospectus.
