8 8 Risk factors you should consider prior to investing: The value of investments and the income from them can fall and investors may get back less than the amount invested. Past performance is not a guide to future results. Investment in the Company may not be appropriate for investors who plan to withdraw their money within 5 years. The Company may accumulate investment positions which represent more than normal trading volumes which may make it difficult to realise investments and may lead to volatility in the market price of the Company's shares. There is no guarantee that the market price of the Company's shares will fully reflect their underlying Net Asset Value. As with all stock exchange investments the value of the Company's shares purchased will immediately fall by the difference between the buying and selling prices, the bid-offer spread. If trading volumes fall, the bid-offer spread can widen. Yields are estimated figures and may fluctuate, there are no guarantees that future dividends will match or exceed historic dividends and certain investors may be subject to further tax on dividends. Derivatives may be used, subject to restrictions set out for the Company, in order to manage risk and generate income. The market in derivatives can be volatile and there is a higher than average risk of loss.
