You should consider your own risk tolerance level and financial circumstances before investing in the MPF Default Investment Strategy ("DIS" as defined in section.a headed "MPF Default Investment Strategy" of the Principal Brochure of My Choice Mandatory Provident Fund Scheme (the "Scheme")). You should note that the My Choice Core Accumulation Fund and the My Choice Age 65 Plus Fund may not be suitable for you, and there may be a risk mismatch between the My Choice Core Accumulation Fund and the My Choice Age 65 Plus Fund and your risk profile (the resulting portfolio risk may be greater than your risk preference). You should seek financial and/or professional advice if you are in doubt as to whether the MPF Default Investment Strategy is suitable for you, and make the investment decision most suitable for you taking into account your circumstances. 5. You should note that the implementation of the MPF Default Investment Strategy may have an impact on your MPF investments and benefits. We recommend that you consult with the Trustee if you have doubts on how you are being affected. 6. The My Choice MPF Conservative Fund of the Scheme does not guarantee the repayment of capital. Investment in the My Choice MPF Conservative Fund and My Choice RMB & HKD Money Market Fund is not the same as placing funds on deposit with a bank or deposit taking company and that the Trustee has no obligation to redeem the investment at the subscription value. In addition, the My Choice MPF Conservative Fund and My Choice RMB & HKD Money Market Fund are not subject to the supervision of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority. 7. Fees and charges of a MPF conservative fund can be deducted from either: (i) the assets of the fund; or (ii) members' account by way of unit deduction. The My Choice MPF Conservative Fund uses method (i) and, therefore, unit prices/ Net Asset Value/ fund performance quoted have incorporated the impact of fees and charges. 8.
