Rischi principali

Rischio di liquidità: Il rischio di liquidità si verifica quando è difficile acquistare o vendere un determinato strumento finanziario. Se il relativo mercato risulta illiquido, potrebbe non essere possibile effettuare una transazione o liquidare una posizione a un prezzo vantaggioso o ragionevole, o addirittura concludere l'operazione.

Rischio del mercato azionario: I prezzi dei titoli detenuti dal Fondo sono soggetti ai rischi associati all'investimento nel mercato dei valori mobiliari, incluse le condizioni economiche generali e i cali di valore improvvisi e imprevedibili. Un investimento nel Fondo potrebbe comportare perdite economiche.

Rischio di concentrazione industriale o settoriale: Le attività del Fondo possono essere concentrate in uno o più settori o industrie specifici. Il Fondo potrebbe essere esposto al rischio che determinate condizioni economiche, politiche o di altro tipo, che incidono negativamente sulle industrie e sui settori interessati, penalizzino la sua performance in misura maggiore di quanto non accada quando gli attivi del Fondo sono investiti in una gamma più ampia di settori o industrie.

Per ulteriori informazioni sui rischi, consultare la sezione "Fattori di rischio" del prospetto informativo della Società, disponibile sul sito www.vaneck.com.
