13. Investment Performance
You should note that Investments do involve risk, including the possible loss of the entire capital invested, and past performance is not a guide to future performance. An Investment may expose you to a significant risk of loss; the value of your investments and the income from them may go down as well as up and returns are not guaranteed. Tax reliefs may change from time to time, as they have done previously, and rates of exchange may cause the value of investments to go up or down. Some, but not all, of these risks will be contained in the Memorandum. Potential investors should familiarize themselves with these risks and obtain advice from their own financial, accounting, legal, tax and other advisors and only make investment decisions based on the investor’s own objectives, experience and resources.
