15 Gartmore Cautious Managed Fund – G5434 Important Information >For business and professional investors only. This document should not be circulated to private investors. >Past performance is not a guide to future performance. >The value of investments and the income from them may go down as well as up and you may not get back your original investment. >When a Fund holds high yielding bonds there is an increased risk of capital erosion through default or if the redemption yield is below the income yield. You should also be aware that economic conditions and changes to interest rate levels may significantly impact the values of high yield bonds. >The annual management fee is currently charged to the capital of the Fund. Whilst this increases the yield, it will restrict the potential for capital growth. >The level of yield is subject to fluctuation and is not guaranteed. >More than 35% of the Fund is likely to consist of Government and other Public Securities issued by one issuer. >Please ensure clients read the Simplified Prospectus/Key Features Document before investing. >All opinions and estimates constitute our judgment as of the date of this presentation and are subject to change without notice.
