Important Information
Investment involves risks. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. Investor should not make any investment decision solely based on the information provided on this material. Investors should refer to the Prospectus and the Product Key Facts Statement of the Sub-Fund for further details, including product features and risk factors before making any investment decision. Bosera RMB Money Market ETF offers both listed class of shares (“Listed Class”) and unlisted class of shares (“Unlisted Class”). Switching between Listed Class and Unlisted Class is not available.
Bosera RMB Money Market ETF (the “Sub-Fund”) is a sub-fund of the Bosera Global Exchange Traded Funds Series Open-ended Fund Company (“Company”), which is a public umbrella open-ended fund company established under Hong Kong law with variable capital with limited liability and segregated liability between sub-funds. The Company has been registered with the Securities & Futures Commission (“SFC”) as an OFC and the Company and the Sub-Fund have been authorized by the SFC pursuant to section 104 of the Securities and Futures Ordinance. The SFC’s registration or authorization is not a recommendation or endorsement of the Company nor the Sub-Fund nor does it guarantee the commercial merits of the Company or the Sub-Fund or its performance. It does not mean the Company or the Sub-Fund is suitable for all investors nor is it an endorsement of its suitability for any particular investor or class of investors.
The Manager employs an actively managed investment strategy for the Sub-Fund. The Sub-Fund does not seek to track any index or benchmark, and there is no replication or representative sampling conducted by the Manager. It may fail to meet its objective as a result of the Manager’s selection of investments, and/or the implementation of processes which may cause the Sub-Fund to underperform as compared to prevailing money market rates or other money market funds with a similar objective.
The Sub-Fund’s ability to make the relevant investments or to fully implement or pursue its investment objective and strategy is subject to the applicable laws, rules and regulations (including restrictions on investments and repatriation of principals and profits) in Mainland China, which are subject to change, which may have potential retrospective effect. The Sub-Fund may suffer substantial losses if the approval of the RQFII is being revoked/terminated or otherwise invalidated as the Sub-Fund may be prohibited from trading the relevant securities and repatriation of the Sub-Fund’s monies, or if any of the key operators or parties (including the RQFII custodian/brokers) is bankrupt / in default and/or is disqualified from performing its obligations (including execution or settlement of any transaction or transfer of monies or securities).
Investors of Listed and Unlisted Classes of Shares are subject to different pricing and dealing arrangements. The NAV per Share of each of the Listed and Unlisted Classes of Shares may be different due to different fees and cost applicable to each class. The trading hours of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited applicable to the Listed Class of Shares in the secondary market and the dealing deadlines in respect of the Unlisted Classes of Shares are also different. For the avoidance of doubt, the dealing deadline applicable to the Listed Class of Shares in the primary market and the dealing deadlines in respect of the Unlisted Classes of Shares are the same.
Shares of the Listed Class of Shares are traded on the stock exchange in the secondary market on an intraday basis at the prevailing market price (which may diverge from the corresponding NAV), while Shares of the Unlisted Classes of Shares are sold through intermediaries based on the dealing day-end NAV and are dealt at a single valuation point with no access to intraday liquidity in an open market. Depending on market conditions, investors of the Unlisted Classes of Shares may be at an advantage or disadvantage compared to investors of the Listed Class of Shares.
In a stressed market scenario, investors of the Unlisted Classes of Shares could redeem their Shares at NAV while investors of the Listed Class of Shares in the secondary market could only redeem at the prevailing market price (which may diverge from the corresponding NAV) and may have to exit the Sub-Fund at a significant discount. On the other hand, investors of the Listed Class of Shares could sell their Shares on the secondary market during the day thereby crystallising their positions while investors of the Unlisted Classes of Shares could not do so in a timely manner until the end of the day.
If there is a suspension of the inter-counter transfer of Shares between the counters and/or any limitation on the level of services by brokers and CCASS participants, Shareholders will only be able to trade their Shares in one counter only, which may inhibit or delay an investor dealing. The market price of Shares traded in each counter may deviate significantly. As such, investors may pay more or receive less when buying or selling Shares traded on one counter on the SEHK than in respect of Shares traded in another counter and vice versa.
The trading price of the Shares on the SEHK is driven by market factors such as the demand and supply of the Shares. Therefore, the Shares may trade at a substantial premium or discount to the NAV and may deviate significantly from the NAV per Share.
As investors will pay certain charges (e.g. trading fees and brokerage fees) to buy or sell Shares on the SEHK, investors may pay more than the NAV per Share when buying Shares on the SEHK, and may receive less than the NAV per Share when selling Shares on the SEHK.
The Shares in the RMB counter are RMB denominated securities traded on the SEHK and settled in CCASS. Not all stockbrokers or custodians may be ready and able to carry out trading and settlement of the RMB traded Shares. The limited availability of RMB outside Mainland China may also affect the liquidity and trading price of the RMB traded Shares.
The Sub-Fund may be terminated early under certain circumstances, for example, if the size of the Sub-Fund falls below USD10,000,000 (or equivalent). Investors may not be able to recover their investments and suffer a loss when the Sub-Fund is terminated.
Although the Manager will use its best endeavours to put in place arrangements so that at least one market maker will maintain a market for the Shares traded in each counter and that at least one market maker to each counter gives not less than 3 months’ notice prior to terminating market making under the relevant market maker agreement, liquidity in the market for the Shares may be adversely affected if there is no or only one market maker for the Shares traded in any available counter. There is also no guarantee that any market making activity will be effective.
There may be less interest by potential market makers making a market in Shares denominated and traded in RMB. Any disruption to the availability of RMB may adversely affect the capability of market makers in providing liquidity for the Shares.
The 7-day annualised yield and the 30-day annualised yield are based on 7-day period and 30-day period of Bosera RMB Money Market ETF (Listed Class)’s past performance respectively and do not represent an actual one-year return.
The assumptions involved in the calculation of the 7-day annualised yield and the 30-day annualised yield are hypothetical.
