Risk class

 

A risk class is to be assigned to each constituent fund according to the seven-point risk classification below based on the latest risk indicator of the constituent fund. The Risk Indicator shows the annualized standard deviation based on the monthly rates of return of the fund over the past 3 years, and correct to 2 decimal places. Generally, the greater the annualized standard deviation, the more volatile/risky the constituent fund. The Risk Indicator for the constituent fund will be available 3 years after its launch date.

The risk class is prescribed by the Mandatory Provident Fund Schemes Authority (“MPFA”) according to the Code on Disclosure for MPF Investment Funds and the risk class has not been reviewed or endorsed by the Securities and Futures Commission (“SFC”).
