Investment Advisory Service Financial Product Risks

Securities and other instruments (stocks, government bonds, corporate debentures, real estate investment trusts, investment trust securities, etc.) are expected to experience price fluctuations, and such fluctuations may cause the value of discretionary and advisory account assets under management to fall below their value at time of purchase. As such, neither purchase price principal nor any specific dividend yield or performance rate is guaranteed. The purchaser shall assume responsibility for any losses incurred.

Major risks related to our investment strategies include the following:
  • Price Volatility Risk:

    Prices of stocks and securities are known to fluctuate widely and such price fluctuations in individual stocks and the stock market overall may contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management.

  • Securities Selection Risk:

    Securities selection may contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management irrespective of overall securities market trends.

  • Liquidity Risk:

    An inability to execute trades at the most advantageous time due to low trading volume may contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management.

  • Credit Risk (Stocks):

    In such a case when the issuer of the stock goes into financial difficulty or default etc, invested assets may become unrecoverable. Additionally, in the case when the issuer is expected to go into such situation, the price of the stock issued by the issuer will decline and it may be the factor for the depreciation in the assets under management.

  • Interest Risk:

    Bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise, and such price fluctuations may contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management.

  • Credit Risk (Fixed Income):

    Invested assets may become unrecoverable if issuers of corporate/sovereign bonds, commercial paper or short-term financial instruments become insolvent or experience calamitous declines in creditworthiness. Market anticipation of such declines may also contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management.

  • Foreign Currencies Risk:

    Fluctuations in the currency market may have an impact on the value of assets under management. As a result, investors may suffer losses arising from foreign exchange fluctuations. Investment in foreign currency denominated assets may also be affected by regional political and economic conditions, currency and capital regulations and other factors that may contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management.

  • Country Risk:

    Financial market turbulence caused by country-specific political, economic or regulatory changes may constrain fund management and contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management.

  • Derivative Risk:

    Some products may include derivatives in their investment strategy. In such cases, declining or low correlation with underlying hedged products, liquidity risks, margin deposit losses, leverage risks and other factors may contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management.

Investment Trust Product Fees and Expenses

  • Subscription fee: Application fee, maximum 3.78% (tax included) **
  • Investment trust reserve expense: maximum 0.5%
  • Conversion fee : public and corporate bonds in investment trust product and green public and corporate bonds in investment trust product, maximum 108 yen (tax included)** per 10,000 unit according to the subscription date
  • Other conversion fee: NA
  • Fees indirectly imposed during investment holding period: Trust fee, maximum 2.052% per annum (tax included)
  • Other fees: Fees to be defrayed by the investor based on the holding period and factors other than the aforementioned. Refer to the prospectus issued for each investment trust product for specific details.
 

**Note: A general investment trust product is assumed with regard to the fees and expenses items stated above.
The fee rates included herein are the maximum rates for the respective fees withheld on investment trusts managed by Asset Management One Co., Ltd.
When tax law is revised, a commission including tax etc. may be changed.

Investment Trust Product Risks

Investment trusts invest in domestic/foreign securities such as stocks, corporate bonds, real estate investment trusts and other instruments with price fluctuations. Purchase amount principal is not guaranteed, and the unit value of invested assets is subject to trading price and exchange rate fluctuations that may contribute to a decline in the value of assets under management.

Each investment trust has different characteristics and risks associated with it due to differences in asset class, countries invested in, applicable regulations, security market conditions and other factors. Refer to the prospectus issued for each investment trust product for specific details.
