Investors having access to an account withEuroclear or Clearstream should provide details of their Euroclear orClearstream account number in their application to the Administrator.Fight against Money Laundering and Financing of TerrorismPursuant to international rules and Luxembourg laws and regulationscomprising, but not limited to, the law of November 12, 2004 on thefight against money laundering and financing of terrorism, asamended, and circulars of the CSSF, obligations have been imposedon all professionals of the financial sector to prevent the use ofundertakings for collective investment for money laundering andfinancing of terrorism purposes. As a result of such provisions, theregistrar agent of a Luxembourg undertaking for collective investmentmust in principle ascertain the identity of the subscriber in accordancewith Luxembourg laws and regulations. The registrar agent mayrequire subscribers to provide any document it deems necessary toeffect such identification.In case of delay or failure by an applicant to provide the documentsrequired, the application for subscription (or, if applicable, forredemption) will not be accepted. Neither the Company nor theAdministrator have any liability for delays or failure to process deals asa result of the applicant providing no or only incomplete documentation.Shareholders may be requested to provide additional or updatedidentification documents from time to time pursuant to ongoing clientdue diligence requirements under relevant laws and regulations.Market TimingThe Shares are priced on a forward basis. Market timing practices (forexample where an investor appears to subscribe and redeem orconvert Shares within a short space of time in order to exploit pricinginefficiencies due to time zone differences) will not be accepted andthe Company and the Administrator reserve the right to reject orderson suspicion of such activities and to take any necessary action toprotect other investors.GeneralThe Company reserves the right to reject any application for Shares inwhole or in part without stating reasons. Shares will only be allotted ifcleared subscription monies are received by the Administrator with theApplication Form unless otherwise agreed at the discretion of theBoard of Directors, such discretion being delegated to the InvestmentManager. The Company may, if agreed in the sole discretion of theDirectors, satisfy any subscription for Shares in specie, in which casea report from the Company’s auditors on the value of any assetsaccepted by way of in specie subscription will generally be obtained.11

Requests should:(a)(b)(c)state the <strong>Fund</strong>(s), Class(es) and relevant ISIN numbers of theShares in respect of which the application is being made;state the name of the Shareholder(s) and the Personal AccountNumber of such Shareholder; andstate the number of Shares or amount in cash to be redeemed.Payment of redemption proceeds will be made in accordance withinitial redemption payment instructions as notified in the ApplicationForm. If investors wish to make any change in the redemption paymentinstruction, such change must be by written notice to the Administratorsigned by the sole investor or all joint investors. The Administrator willbe deemed to be authorised to act on any redemption instructionreceived from any person purporting to be the Shareholder andreciting the Personal Account Number.For redemption requests that are received by the Administrator priorto the Dealing Deadline in respect of a Valuation Day, Shares willbe redeemed at the Redemption Price of the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>calculated as at the Valuation Point on such Valuation Day.Redemption requests received by the Administrator after the DealingDeadline on a Valuation Day will be dealt with at the Valuation Pointon the following Valuation Day.There is no redemption charge on redemptions unless otherwisespecified in the Information Sheets of a <strong>Fund</strong>. Any redemption chargewill be retained by the <strong>Fund</strong> for the benefit of the Class concerned.A contract note confirming the details of the redemption will normallybe forwarded by the Administrator within two Business Days followingthe relevant Valuation Day.Unless otherwise specified in the relevant Information Sheet,redemptions will be effected in the Class Currency of the relevantClass. Redemption proceeds will generally be paid on the fourthBusiness Day after the later of the date on which the applicableRedemption Price is determined and receipt by the Company of awritten redemption request.There is no minimum number of Shares, or minimum value of Shares,which may be redeemed in any one redemption transaction exceptthat in the event of an applicant requesting the redemption of part onlyof his holding of Shares which would, if carried out, leave the applicantholding less than the Minimum Holding, the Directors may, if they thinkfit, redeem the whole of that applicant’s holding in that Class.Redemption in kindThe Board of Directors may, at the request of a Shareholder, agree tomake, in whole or in part, a distribution in kind of securities of the <strong>Fund</strong>to that Shareholder in lieu of paying to that Shareholder redemptionproceeds in cash. The Board of Directors will agree to do so if theydetermine that such a transaction would not be detrimental to the bestinterests of the remaining Shareholders of the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>. Suchredemption will be effected at the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value of Shares of therelevant Class of the <strong>Fund</strong> which the Shareholder is redeeming, andthus will constitute a pro rata portion of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s assets attributablein that Class in terms of value. The assets to be transferred to suchShareholder shall be determined by the Board of Directors, withregard to the practicality of transferring the assets and to the interestsof the <strong>Fund</strong> and continuing participants therein and to the Shareholder.The selection, valuation and transfer of assets shall be subject to thereview and approval, if required by applicable laws and regulations orthe Board of Directors, of the Company’s auditors at the requestingShareholder’s expense. The costs for such redemptions in kind, inparticular the costs of the special audit report, will be borne by theShareholder requesting the redemption in kind or by a third party, butwill not be borne by the Company unless the Board of Directorsconsiders that the redemption in kind is in the interest of the Companyor made to protect the interests of the Company.Limitation on RedemptionThe Company shall not be bound to redeem on any Valuation DayShares representing more than 10% of the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value of any<strong>Fund</strong> (net of subscriptions on the same Valuation Day). For thispurpose conversions of Shares out of a Class shall be treated asredemptions of such Shares. Redemption requests received on aValuation Day may, in the absolute discretion of the Directors, bescaled down pro-rata so that Shares representing not more than 10%of the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value of any <strong>Fund</strong> may be redeemed on a ValuationDay. In these circumstances redemptions may be deferred by theCompany to the next Valuation Day after the date of receipt of theredemption request. Redemptions that are deferred when processedwill be effected in the order of receipt.The Company and/or the Administrator will accept Shareholderinstructions to redeem by facsimile at the Shareholder’s own risk andprovided that the Shareholder has executed a facsimile instructionindemnity form. Redemption requests may not be withdrawn except inthe event of a suspension set out under the section headed‘Suspension of Dealings in Shares’ or deferral of the right to redeemShares of the relevant Class. Shares redeemed by the Company willbe cancelled.How to Convert SharesConversion facilities are available to all Shareholders wishing toconvert all or part of their holding from one <strong>Fund</strong> to another.Conversions between <strong>Fund</strong>s are made at the relevant SubscriptionPrice and Redemption Price and may only be made into the equivalentClass in the <strong>Fund</strong> into which the Shareholder wishes to convert. Forexample, a holding in an € L Class of a <strong>Fund</strong> may be converted to aholding in another L Class of the same or different currencydenomination. Conversion requests should be presented directly tothe Administrator.Conversion requests should be made in writing and sent to theAdministrator. The Administrator will also accept conversion requestsin electronic format (in such format or method and under suchconditions as shall be deemed acceptable by the Administrator fromtime to time and subject to applicable legal and regulatory provisions).12

A conversion fee of up to 1% of the gross amount beingswitched (as determined below under ‘F’) may be charged in respectof conversions for the benefit of the Investment Manager or forpayment to a Distributor as the Investment Manager may direct.If as a result of a partial conversion of Shares, the Shareholder’sbalance of Shares in a particular Class falls below the MinimumHolding, the Company may require that these Shares be converted orredeemed. Contract notes will normally be issued within two BusinessDays following the applicable Valuation Day.The rate at which all or any part of a holding of Shares (the ‘original<strong>Fund</strong>’) is converted on any Valuation Day into Shares of another <strong>Fund</strong>(the ‘new <strong>Fund</strong>’) will be determined in accordance with (or as nearlymay be) the following formula:A= ((B x C x E) – F)Where:ABCDEFDis the number of Shares of the new <strong>Fund</strong> to be allotted;is the number of Shares of the original <strong>Fund</strong> to be converted;is the NAV per Share of the original <strong>Fund</strong> ruling on the relevantValuation Day;is the NAV per Share of the new <strong>Fund</strong> ruling on the relevantValuation Day;is, in the case of a conversion involving two <strong>Fund</strong>s which do nothave the same Base Currency, the exchange rate determined bythe Custodian, for converting the currency of B into the currencyof A; andis a conversion fee of up to 1% of the gross amount beingswitched (i.e. B x C).Shareholders should note that a switch of Shares of one Class forShares in another Class of another <strong>Fund</strong> may in some jurisdictions bea realisation for the purposes of capital gains taxation. A Shareholderwhose Shares of one Class have been switched into Shares of anotherClass following submission of a switching request, will not be given aright by law to reverse the transaction except as a new transaction.Limited Secondary MarketShareholders should note that a Distributor may, but shall not beobliged to, make a market in Shares and, consequently, acting asprincipal, acquire and hold Shares. When a Distributor makes amarket in Shares, a purchaser will acquire Shares directly from theDistributor and a Shareholder selling Shares will sell them directly tothe Distributor rather than from or to the Company. Acquisition andsale of Shares from and to a Distributor may not be made at pricesexceeding the relevant NAV per Share plus the Initial Charge or beingless than the Redemption Price, respectively. A Shareholder who hasacquired Shares through a Distributor may at any time apply directly tothe Distributor for the redemption of his Shares. For the avoidance ofdoubt, nothing contained herein shall oblige a Distributor to make amarket in the Shares. Any transferee or purchaser of Shares in thesecondary market will be required to comply with the measures aimedtowards the prevention of money laundering set out above.How to Transfer SharesTransfers of Shares may be effected in writing in any usual or commonform acceptable to the Directors, signed by or on behalf of thetransferor and the transferee and every transfer shall state the fullname and address of the transferor and transferee.The Directors or the Administrator may decline to register any transferof Shares where:(i)(ii)the transfer would result in the beneficial ownership of such Sharesby a U.S. Person or otherwise is made in contravention of anyrestrictions on ownership imposed by the Directors or might resultin legal, regulatory, pecuniary, taxation or material administrativedisadvantage to the Company or its Shareholders; orthe transfer is to a person who, if not already a Shareholder,would as a result of the transfer not hold the Minimum Holding.The Directors or the Administrator may decline to register a transfer ofShares unless the transfer form is deposited with the Company or itsdelegate together with such information as may reasonably be requiredincluding evidence required to show the right of the transferor to make thetransfer and satisfy the Administrator as to its requirements with respectto prevention of money laundering. A potential transferee (not being anexisting Shareholder) will be required to complete such documentation aswould have been required had that transferee subscribed for Sharesbefore the proposed transfer is approved for registration.Swing PricingIn the event of large net subscriptions or redemptions the associatedinvestment and/or disinvestment costs for the underlying investmentportfolio of a <strong>Fund</strong> may have an adverse effect on Shareholders’interests. In order to mitigate this effect, commonly referred to as‘dilution’, the Board of Directors has a discretion to apply a ‘dilutionadjustment’ to subscriptions and/or redemptions of Shares (the“Dilution Adjustment”). This power has been delegated to theInvestment Manager.If applied, the Dilution Adjustment will be paid into the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>and will become part of the assets of that <strong>Fund</strong> for the benefit of itsShareholders.The need to make a Dilution Adjustment will depend on the volume ofnet subscriptions or redemptions. The Investment Manager may makea discretionary Dilution Adjustment if, in its opinion, the existingShareholders (prior to large subscriptions) or remaining Shareholders(following large redemptions) are likely to be adversely affected. Inparticular, a Dilution Adjustment may be made by the InvestmentManager in the following circumstances:• where the <strong>Fund</strong> is, in the opinion of the Investment Manager,experiencing a period of continued decline;• where the <strong>Fund</strong> is, in the opinion of the Investment Manager,experiencing a period of continued expansion;• where the <strong>Fund</strong> experiences a level of net redemptions or netsubscriptions on any Valuation Day which exceeds the thresholddetermined by the Investment Manager for the <strong>Fund</strong>; or• in any other case where the Investment Manager is of the opinionthat the interests of Shareholders require the imposition of aDilution Adjustment.13


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDHow to Subscribe, Convert and Redeem■■How to Subscribe, Convert and RedeemSwing Pricing continuedWhere a Dilution Adjustment is made, it will increase the SubscriptionPrice when there are net inflows into the <strong>Fund</strong> or decrease theRedemption Price when there are net outflows.The price of each Class in each <strong>Fund</strong> will be calculated separately, butany Dilution Adjustment will affect the price of Shares of each Class ofthe relevant <strong>Fund</strong> identically up to a maximum of 2%.In circumstances when the Investment Manager elects not to apply aDilution Adjustment there may be an adverse impact on the totalassets of the <strong>Fund</strong> pursuant to net subscriptions or redemptions. Asdilution is directly related to the value of inflows and outflows of moneyfrom the <strong>Fund</strong>, it is not possible to accurately predict whether dilutionwill occur at any future point in time. Consequently it is also notpossible to accurately predict how frequently the Investment Managerwill need to impose a Dilution Adjustment.Because the Dilution Adjustment for each <strong>Fund</strong> will be calculated byreference to the costs of dealing in the underlying investments of that<strong>Fund</strong>, including any dealing spreads (which can vary with marketconditions), the amount of any Dilution Adjustment applicable to agiven <strong>Fund</strong> will vary over time.Calculation of Dilution Adjustment:In applying a Dilution Adjustment, the Investment Manager must usethe following basis of valuation:• When, by reference to any Valuation Point, the aggregate value ofthe Shares of all Classes of the <strong>Fund</strong> issued exceeds the aggregatevalue of Shares of all Classes cancelled, any adjustment must beupwards. The Dilution Adjustment must not exceed the InvestmentManager’s reasonable estimate of the difference between what theSubscription Price or Redemption Price would have been had theDilution Adjustment not been taken into account and what theSubscription Price or Redemption Price would have been if theassets of the <strong>Fund</strong> had been valued on the best available marketoffered basis (plus dealing costs); or• When, by reference to any valuation point, the aggregate value ofthe Shares of all Classes of the <strong>Fund</strong> redeemed exceeds theaggregate value of Units of all Classes issued, any adjustmentmust be downwards. The Dilution Adjustment must not exceed theInvestment Manager’s reasonable estimate of the differencebetween what the price would have been had the DilutionAdjustment not been taken into account and what the price wouldhave been if the assets of the <strong>Fund</strong> had been valued on the bestavailable market bid basis (less dealing costs).Calculation of Net <strong>Asset</strong> ValueThe Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value per Share of each Class in each <strong>Fund</strong> will bedetermined in respect of any Valuation Day in the currency of therelevant Class, as determined by the Board of Directors. It will becalculated by dividing the value of the net assets of the <strong>Fund</strong> attributableto such Class by the number of Shares in issue of that Class.The value of the net assets of each <strong>Fund</strong> will be determined inaccordance with the Articles in the following manner.The assets of the Company shall be deemed to include:(i)(ii)(iii)(iv)(v)(vi)all cash balances and deposits, including any interest accruedthereon;all bills and demand notes and accounts receivable (includingproceeds of securities sold but not settled);all bonds, time notes, shares, stock, units/shares in undertakingsfor collective investment, debenture stocks, subscription rights,warrants, options and other investments and securities owned orcontracted for by the Company;all stock, stock dividends, cash dividends and cash distributionsreceivable by the Company to the extent that information thereonis reasonably available to the Company (provided that theCompany may make adjustments with regard to fluctuations inthe market value of securities caused by trading ex-dividends,ex-rights, or similar practices);all interest accrued on any interest-bearing securities owned bythe Company except to the extent that the same is included orreflected in the principal amount of such security;the launch expenses of the Company insofar as the same havenot been written off, provided that such preliminary expensesmay be written off directly from the capital of the Company; and(vii) all other permitted assets of every kind and nature, includingprepaid expenses.The value of such assets shall be determined as follows:(i)the value of any cash balances or deposits, bills and demandnotes and accounts receivable, prepaid expenses, cashdividends and interest declared or accrued as aforesaid and notyet received shall be deemed to be the full amount thereof,unless in any case the same is unlikely to be paid or received infull, in which case the value thereof shall be arrived at aftermaking such discount as the Company may consider appropriatein such case to reflect the true value thereof;(ii) the value of securities, money market instruments and/orfinancial derivative instruments which are listed on any officialstock exchange or dealt in on any Regulated Market are valuedat the last available price in accordance with the Company’scurrent accounting policies;(iii)(iv)in the event that any of the securities, including money marketinstruments or financial derivative instruments held by theCompany’s portfolio on the relevant day are not listed on anystock exchange or dealt in on any Regulated Market or if, withrespect to securities listed on any stock exchange or dealt in onany other Regulated Market, the basis of the price as determinedpursuant to sub-paragraph (ii) is not representative of the fairmarket value of the relevant securities, the value of suchsecurities will be determined based on the reasonablyforeseeable sales price determined prudently and in good faith;the financial derivative instruments which are not listed on anyofficial stock exchange or traded on any other Regulated Marketwill be valued in a reliable and verifiable manner on a daily basisand verified by a competent professional appointed by theCompany in accordance with market practice;14

Indetermining the amount of such liabilities the Company maycalculate administrative and other expenses of a regular orrecurring nature on an estimated figure for yearly or otherperiods in advance, and may accrue the same in equalproportions over any such period.In calculating the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value, the Administrator may rely uponsuch automatic pricing services as it shall determine or, if so instructedby the Company, the <strong>Management</strong> Company or the InvestmentManager, it may use information provided by particular pricingservices, brokers, market makers or other intermediaries. In suchcircumstances, the Administrator shall not, in the absence of fraud,negligence or wilful default on the part of the Administrator, be liablefor any loss suffered by the Company or any Shareholder by reason ofany error in the calculation of the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value resulting from anyinaccuracy in the information provided by any such pricing service,broker, market maker or other intermediary.Suspension of Dealings in SharesThe Directors may suspend the determination of the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Valueof any <strong>Fund</strong> and the issue and redemption of any <strong>Fund</strong>’s Shares toand from its Shareholders and the conversion from and to Shares ofthe relevant <strong>Fund</strong> during:(i)(ii)any period when any of the principal stock exchanges or marketson which any substantial portion of the investments of theCompany attributable to such <strong>Fund</strong> are quoted or dealt in areclosed otherwise than for ordinary holidays, or during whichdealings therein are restricted or suspended; orthe existence of any state of affairs which constitutes anemergency as a result of which disposals or valuation of assetsowned by the Company attributable to such <strong>Fund</strong> would beimpracticable; or(iii) any breakdown in or restriction in the use of the means ofcommunication normally employed in determining the price orvalue of any of the investments attributable to such <strong>Fund</strong> or thecurrent price or values on any stock exchange; or(iv)(v)(vi)(vii)any period when the Company is unable to repatriate monies forthe purpose of making payments on the redemption of suchShares or during which any transfer of funds involved in therealisation or acquisition of investments or payments due onredemption of such Shares cannot in the opinion of the Directorsbe effected at normal rates of exchange; orany period when, in the opinion of the Directors, there existunusual circumstances where it would be impracticable or unfairtowards the Shareholders to continue dealing in the Shares ofany <strong>Fund</strong> of the Company; orany period, if the Directors so decide and if the Company or therelevant <strong>Fund</strong> is being or may be wound up, commencing on orfollowing the date on which notice is given of the general meetingof Shareholders at which a resolution to wind up the Company orthe relevant <strong>Fund</strong> is to be proposed; orany period when the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value of any subsidiary of theCompany cannot be accurately determined.No Share of such a <strong>Fund</strong> may be issued or redeemed and noconversion of Shares can be made to or from such <strong>Fund</strong> during suchperiod of suspension.

During the first six months following its launch, a new <strong>Fund</strong> mayderogate from restrictions (3) and (5) while ensuring observanceof the principle of risk-spreading.9. Each <strong>Fund</strong> must ensure an adequate spread of investment risksby sufficient diversification.10. The Company will in addition comply with such further restrictionsas may be required by the regulatory authorities in which theShares are marketed.The Company need not comply with the investment limit percentageswhen exercising subscription rights attached to securities which formpart of its assets.If the percentage limitations set forth in the above restrictions areexceeded for reasons beyond the control of the Company or as a resultof the exercise of subscription rights, it must adopt as a priority objectivefor its sales transactions the remedying of that situation, taking dueaccount of the interests of its Shareholders.Commodity IndicesIf expressly provided for in the investment policy of a <strong>Fund</strong> in its InformationSheet, a <strong>Fund</strong> may have exposure to indices that will (i) contain a singleunderlying commodity (‘Single Commodity Index’) or (ii) be representativeof the commodity markets (‘Market Commodity Index’).Where a <strong>Fund</strong> has exposure to a combination of both SingleCommodity Indices and Market Commodity Indices, the <strong>Fund</strong>’s netexposure to any single underlying commodity may not exceed 20%.This limit may be increased to a maximum of 35% in respect of onesingle underlying commodity.Notwithstanding the aforementioned limits, the <strong>Fund</strong>’s exposure to anySingle Commodity Index may not exceed 10% of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s net assets.Furthermore, the aggregate exposure of the <strong>Fund</strong> to such SingleCommodity Indices with exposure exceeding 5% may not exceed 40% ofthe assets of the <strong>Fund</strong>. In addition, in respect of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s exposure toSingle Commodity Indices, the <strong>Fund</strong>’s net exposure to any singlecommodity underlying such Single Commodity Indices is limited to 10%,and the aggregate exposure of the <strong>Fund</strong> to such single commodities withexposure exceeding 5% may not exceed 40% of the assets of the <strong>Fund</strong>.Financial Techniques and InstrumentsThe use of derivatives or other financial techniques and instrumentsmay not cause the Company to stray from the investment objectives setout in the Information Sheets. Subject to the limits set out in the sectionheaded ‘Investment Restrictions’ above and subject also to any furtherlimits identified in the Information Sheet for each <strong>Fund</strong>, each of the<strong>Fund</strong>s has the ability: to hedge against directional risk using indexfutures and/or cash; to hold bonds and warrants on transferablesecurities; to use options and futures for hedging purposes and forefficient portfolio management; to enter into total return and other swaparrangements (including portfolio swaps); to use forward currencycontracts; to effect repurchase transactions (subject to paragraph 6below); and to hold ancillary liquid assets.1. Measurement of exposure to financial derivative instrumentsfor risk management purposesThe <strong>Management</strong> Company and the Investment Manager maycalculate the <strong>Fund</strong>’s global exposure of each <strong>Fund</strong> on a‘commitment approach’. This means that, in respect of eachfinancial derivative instrument, the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>’s commitmentmay be calculated by adding to the unrealised net present valueof each derivative contract an amount corresponding to an ‘addon’percentage applied to the nominal value of that derivativecontract. The add-on percentage is determined in accordancewith a methodology which takes into account the nature of theasset class underlying the derivative, counterparty exposure andmarket volatility. Further information on this add-on methodologycan be obtained by investors upon request from the <strong>Management</strong>Company or the Investment Manager. The global exposure of a<strong>Fund</strong> may also be calculated by applying a ‘Value-at-Risk’.Further details are set out under the heading ‘Risks Related tothe Use of Financial Derivative Instruments’ on page 22 belowand also under the heading ‘Risk <strong>Management</strong> Process’ onpage 34 below.19


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInvestment Restrictions■■Investment RestrictionsFinancial Techniques and Instruments continued1. Measurement of exposure to financial derivative instrumentsfor risk management purposes continued<strong>Fund</strong>s calculating their global exposure on a ‘commitmentapproach’ must comply with the limits and restrictions specifiedabove when using financial derivative instruments. They willgenerally make use of financial derivative instruments and othertechniques and instruments relating to transferable securities forthe purpose of efficient portfolio management or for providingprotection against exchange rate risks unless otherwisedisclosed in the specific investment policy of the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>(under the conditions and within the limits laid down by law,regulation and administrative practice) or otherwise as furtherdescribed below.Subject to the foregoing provisions, the Investment Restrictionsrelating to the use of financial derivative instruments will notapply to those <strong>Fund</strong>s applying a Value-at-Risk (VaR) approachto calculate their global exposure to financial derivativeinstruments as referred to in CSSF Circular 11/512. With theVaR process, the risks are measured daily with a 99th percentileconfidence interval and a holding period of 20 trading days. TheVaR is deemed to be the maximum amount that would be lostwith a probability of 99% assuming a holding period for theportfolio of one month. According to this model, the amount isexceeded in 1% of cases. The VaR of the <strong>Fund</strong> may at no timeexceed either twice the VaR of a derivative-free benchmarkportfolio or 20%, at the Investment Manager’s discretion. Each<strong>Fund</strong> for which the global exposure is calculated by applying aVaR shall conduct regular stress tests.2. Use of Financial futures contracts, options and warrants inrelation to:a. SecuritiesThe investment strategies permitted of the <strong>Fund</strong>s includetransactions in financial futures contracts and options thereon.The <strong>Fund</strong>s may also engage in transactions in options andwarrants on portfolio securities, on bond and stock indices andon portfolios of indices.b. CurrenciesThe <strong>Fund</strong>s may seek to hedge their investments againstcurrency fluctuations which are adverse to the respectivecurrencies in which these <strong>Fund</strong>s are denominated by utilisingcurrency options, futures contracts and forward foreign exchangecontracts. In this regard, the currency exposure of a <strong>Fund</strong> maybe managed with reference to the market benchmark used forthe investments of such <strong>Fund</strong>. In that case, the benchmark willbe disclosed in the Information Sheet. The currency exposureresulting from such benchmark may or may not be hedgedagainst the reference currency of the <strong>Fund</strong>. Within the limits setout herein, each <strong>Fund</strong> may also use forward foreign exchangecontracts, currency options or currency swaps to alter thecurrency composition of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s portfolio with reference tosuch benchmarks.c. Interest ratesThe <strong>Fund</strong> may sell interest rate futures contracts, write calloptions or purchase put options on interest rates or enter intoswap agreements for the purpose of hedging against interestrate fluctuations.Each <strong>Fund</strong> may also for a purpose other than hedging, purchaseand sell futures contracts and options on any kind of financialinstruments within the limitations and conditions specified inthese investment restrictions.3. Use of Swap contractsSubject to the limits set out in the section headed ‘InvestmentRestrictions’ above and subject also to any further limitsidentified in the Information Sheet for each <strong>Fund</strong>, each of the<strong>Fund</strong>s has the ability to enter into swap arrangements, includingtotal return swaps, portfolio swaps and credit default swaps aseach is further described below:a. Total return swapsA total return swap is a swap agreement in which one party makespayments based on a notional interest rate, (whether at a fixed orvariable rate), while the other party makes payments based on thetotal return on an underlying asset (which includes both anyincome that it generates and any capital gains or losses).Total return swaps allow the party receiving the total return togain exposure and benefit from any gains on a reference assetwithout actually having to own it. Conversely, total return swapsallow the party offering the total return to buy protection againstan anticipated loss in the value of the reference asset.Total return swaps may be linked to a variety of reference assets,such as (without limitation) currency exchange rates, interestrates, prices and total returns on interest rate indices, fixedincome indices, individual transferrable securities and indicesand baskets thereof. The form of total return swap commonlyassociated with the return on transferrable securities is knownas a ‘portfolio swap’:b. Portfolio swapsEach <strong>Fund</strong> may enter into ‘portfolio swaps’ in which the <strong>Fund</strong>and a counterparty enter into a total return swap to exchangepayments where one or both parties pay a cash amount whichreplicates the economic performance and cash flows generatedby a transferrable security (or a basket or index thereof).The payments made by the <strong>Fund</strong> to the counterparty and viceversa under a portfolio swap are calculated by reference to aspecific reference asset (usually a transferrable security, adefined basket of transferrable securities or an index) and anagreed upon notional interest rate (as described above).The reference asset for a portfolio swap would ordinarily be atransferable security or an index associated with a RegulatedMarket. Settlement of portfolio swaps is always made in cash(rather than by means of delivery of physical goods or securities).Portfolio swaps are primarily used to take long or short positionsin individual transferable securities. For example, the holder of a‘long’ portfolio swap (a long portfolio swap being one that mimicsa purchase) can attain not only exact participation in the pricemovement of that security, but also a credit for the net dividendif the underlying securities go ‘ex dividend’ during the time thatthe portfolio swap position is open.20


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInvestment Restrictions■■Investment RestrictionsFinancial Techniques and Instruments continuedc. Credit default swapsThe Company may, at the discretion of the Investment Manager,use credit default swaps. A credit default swap is a bilateralfinancial contract in which one counterparty (the protection buyer)pays a periodic fee in return for a contingent payment by theprotection seller following a credit event of a reference issuer or abasket of reference issuers or a reference index. The protectionbuyer must either sell particular obligations issued by the referenceissuer for its par value (or some other designated reference orstrike price) when a credit event occurs or receive a cashsettlement based on the difference between the market priceand such reference price. A credit event is commonly definedas bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, material adverserestructuring of debt, or failure to meet payment obligations whendue. The International Swaps and Derivatives Association (‘ISDA’)has produced standardised documentation for these transactionsunder the umbrella of its ISDA Master Agreement.• Credit default swaps for hedging purposesFor the purposes of efficient portfolio management, theCompany may use credit default swaps in order to hedgethe specific credit risk of some of the issuers in its portfolioby buying protection.• Credit default swaps for buying protection for the <strong>Fund</strong>In addition, the Company may, provided it is in its exclusiveinterest, buy protection under credit default swaps withoutholding the underlying assets provided that the aggregatepremiums paid together with the present value of theaggregate premiums still payable in connection with the creditdefault swap purchased together with the amount of theaggregate of premiums paid relating to the purchase ofoptions on Transferable Securities or on financial instrumentsfor a purpose other than hedging, may not, at any time,exceed 15% of the net assets of the <strong>Fund</strong> to which they relate.• Credit default swaps for acquiring credit exposureProvided it is in its exclusive interest, the Company may alsosell protection under credit default swaps in order to acquirea specific credit exposure. In addition, the aggregatecommitments in connection with such credit default swapsold together with the amount of the commitments relating tothe purchase and sale of futures and option contracts on anykind of financial instruments and the commitments relatingto the sale of call and put options on transferable securitiesmay not, at any time, exceed the value of the net assets ofthe <strong>Fund</strong> to which they relate.The Company will only enter into credit default swaptransactions with institutions specialised in this type oftransaction and only in accordance with the standard termslaid down by the relevant ISDA. Each <strong>Fund</strong> may invest incredit default swaps, provided at all times that the use ofcredit default swaps will not result in a <strong>Fund</strong> diverging fromits investment strategy.4. Maximum exposure to financial derivative instrumentsThe total commitment of each <strong>Fund</strong> arising from (1) the use ofswaps, (2) the purchase and sale transactions of futurescontracts and options on any kind of financial instruments and(3) with the amount of commitments relating to the writing of calland put options on Transferable Securities may not exceed atany time the value of the net assets of the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>.The writing of call options on Transferable Securities for whichthe <strong>Fund</strong> has adequate coverage are not considered for thecalculation of the aggregate amount of the commitments referredto above. All such permitted transactions must be effectedsubject to the limits set out in the section headed ‘InvestmentRestrictions’ above and subject also to any further limitsidentified in the Information Sheet for each <strong>Fund</strong>.5. Risks associated with the use of financial techniques andinstrumentsUse of the aforesaid financial techniques and instruments involvesadditional risks and there can be no assurance that the objectivesought from such use will be achieved. Further details if the risksinvolved are set out under the heading ‘Risks Related to the Useof Financial Derivative Instruments’ on page 22 below.If any <strong>Fund</strong> intends to make use of aforesaid financial techniquesand instruments, on a regular and ongoing, rather than on anoccasional basis, this policy will be disclosed accordingly in thecorresponding Information Sheet for the <strong>Fund</strong> concerned.6. Securities lending transactions or repurchase agreementsUnless otherwise provided in the Information Sheet for a given<strong>Fund</strong>, the Company will not enter into securities lendingtransactions or repurchase agreements.Use of the aforesaid techniques and instruments involves certain risksand there can be no assurance that the objective sought to be obtainedfrom such use will be achieved.21


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDRisk Factors■■Risk FactorsInvestors should note the following risk considerations beforemaking any decision to invest in the <strong>Fund</strong>s. It should be noted thatthe risk factors set out below do not purport to be a completeexplanation of the risks involved in investing in the <strong>Fund</strong>s.Prospective investors should read the entire document and consultwith their legal, tax and financial advisers before making anyinvestment decision.GeneralAn investment in the Company is suitable only for investors who arecapable of evaluating the risks and merits of such investment and whohave sufficient resources to bear any loss which might result from suchinvestment. Potential investors should consult their stockbroker, bankmanager, solicitor, accountant or their independent financial adviserbefore investing.Investment in the Company should be regarded as long term in nature.There can be no guarantee that any appreciation in the value of theCompany’s investments will occur and investors may not get back thefull value of their investment. Although it will be the policy of each <strong>Fund</strong>to diversify its investment portfolio, a <strong>Fund</strong> may at certain times holdrelatively few investments. The <strong>Fund</strong> could be subject to significantlosses if it holds a large position in a particular investment that declinesin value or is otherwise adversely affected, including default of the issuer.There can be no guarantee that the investment objectives of theCompany will be met.The Company and its <strong>Fund</strong>s have limited operating histories. The pastperformance of assets managed by the <strong>Jupiter</strong> Group are not necessarilyguides to the future performance of any particular <strong>Fund</strong>.Regulatory RisksThe Company is domiciled in Luxembourg and investors should notethat all the regulatory protections provided by their local regulatoryauthorities may not apply. Investors should consult their financial or otherprofessional adviser for further information in this area.General Investment RisksIn addition to the opportunities for price gains and earnings, investmentin securities also involves risks because the prices could fall below thepurchase price paid. Factors affecting the value of securities in somemarkets and under certain situations cannot easily be determined andthe value of such investments may decline or be reduced to zero.The Company employs a risk management process that enables it tomonitor and measure at any time the risk of the positions and theircontribution to the overall risk profile of each <strong>Fund</strong>. The Company will alsoemploy, if applicable, a process for accurate and independent assessmentof the value of any OTC derivative instruments. Further information is setout under ‘Risk <strong>Management</strong> Process’ on page 46 below.Risks Related to the use of Financial Derivatives InstrumentsUnless otherwise stipulated in the relevant Information Sheet, the<strong>Fund</strong>s may invest in derivative financial instruments, comprisingoptions, futures, index futures and currency forward contracts forhedging and efficient portfolio management. The risks associated withusing derivative financial instruments (whether for hedging, efficientportfolio management and investment purposes) are set out in theparagraphs titled ‘Risks Related to Investments in Equity RelatedSecurities’, ‘Options’, ‘Financial Futures Contracts’, ‘Swaps’, ‘Portfolioswaps and Participation Notes’ and ‘Possible Losses in SecuritiesOption Transactions, Financial Futures Contracts, Option Transactionson Financial Futures Contracts and Securities Index Options’ below.<strong>Fund</strong>s using financial derivative instruments for investment purposesare generally associated with greater risk than <strong>Fund</strong>s which usefinancial derivative instruments only for efficient portfolio managementor hedging purposes. These significant additional risks include, forexample, market counterparty risk, leverage risk, liquidity risk andoperational risk. Losses incurred as a consequence of the use offinancial derivative instruments for investment purposes may besubstantial and could lead to total capital loss for investors in the<strong>Fund</strong>(s) concerned.Risks Related to Investments in Equities (including ordinary andpreference shares)Experience has shown that equities and securities of a share-likecharacter are subject to strong price fluctuations. That is why they offerthe possibility of considerable price gains, but also involve thecorresponding risks. Share prices are influenced above all by theprofits or otherwise of individual enterprises and sectors as well asmacro-economic developments and political perspectives whichdetermine the expectations of the securities markets and thus themovement of prices.Risks Related to Investments in Fixed-Interest Securities(including convertible debt securities)Price changes in fixed-interest securities are influenced predominantlyby interest rate developments in the capital markets, which in turn areinfluenced by macro-economic factors. Fixed-interest securities couldsuffer when capital market interest rates rise, while they could increasein value when capital market interest rates fall. The price changes alsodepend on the term or residual time to maturity of the fixed-interestsecurities. In general, fixed-interest securities with shorter terms haveless price risks than fixed-interest securities with longer terms.However, they generally have lower returns and, because of themore frequent due dates of the securities portfolios, involve higherre-investment costs.Risks Related to Investments in WarrantsIn addition to the above risks involved with securities and exchangerate changes, warrants carry the risk, but also the opportunity, of whatis known as leverage. This leverage is produced, for example, with callwarrants through the lower capital investment when the warrants arepurchased compared with a direct purchase of the underlying assets.The same applies for put warrants. The greater the leverage, thegreater the change of price of the warrant in the event of a change inthe prices of the underlying assets (in comparison to the subscriptionprice set forth in the option conditions). The opportunities and risks ofwarrants increase as the leverage increases. Since warrants aregenerally issued only for a limited term, it cannot be ruled out that theywill be valueless at the date of maturity if the price of the underlyingassets falls below the subscription price fixed when the call warrantswere issued or exceeds the subscription price fixed when the putwarrants were issued.Risks Related to Investments in Fixed-Interest Securities WithoutRegular Interest Payments and Zero BondsParticular attention must be paid to observing the credit worthiness andassessing the issuer of interest-bearing securities without regularinterest payments and zero bonds. In times of climbing capital marketinterest rates, it may be difficult to trade in such bonds, particularlybecause of their comparatively long term and the absence of continualinterest payments.22


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDRisk Factors■■Risk FactorsRisks Related to Investments in Equity Related SecuritiesIn accordance with the investment restrictions of the Company, certain<strong>Fund</strong>s may invest in equity related securities, including but not limited tofinancial derivative instruments, options, swaps, futures and forwardcontracts, warrants, convertible bonds and preference shares. Equityrelated securities may not be listed and are subject to the terms andconditions imposed by their issuers. There may be no active market inequity related securities and therefore investments in equity relatedsecurities can be illiquid. In order to meet realisation requests, theCompany relies upon the issuers of the equity related securities to quotea price to unwind any part of the equity related securities that will reflectthe market liquidity conditions and the size of the transaction. There is arisk that the issuers of equity related securities will not settle a transactiondue to a credit or liquidity problem and the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>s may suffer aloss (including a total loss). Investments in equity related securities do notentitle the investors to the beneficial interest in the underlying securitiesnor to make any claim against the company issuing the securities.Fluctuations in the exchange rate between the denomination currency ofthe underlying shares and the equity related securities will affect the valueof the equity related securities, the redemption amount and the distributionamount on the equity related securities.Depositary ReceiptsInvestment into a given country may be made via direct investmentsinto that market or by depositary receipts traded on other internationalexchanges in order to benefit from increased liquidity in a particularsecurity and other advantages. A depository receipt admitted to theofficial listing on a stock exchange may be deemed an eligibletransferable security regardless of the eligibility of the market in whichthe security to which it relates normally trades.Credit and Counterparty RisksEven when the securities to be acquired are selected carefully, thecredit risk, i.e. the risk of loss through the inability of issuers to pay(issuer risk), cannot be excluded. The value of a <strong>Fund</strong> may be adverselyaffected if any of the institutions with whom the assets of the <strong>Fund</strong> areinvested or deposited suffers insolvency or other financial difficulties.The <strong>Fund</strong>s may invest in derivative financial instruments, comprisingoptions, futures, index futures and currency forward contracts forhedging and efficient portfolio management, as more fully described inthe investment policy of each <strong>Fund</strong>. There is a risk that the use of suchinstruments will not achieve the goals aimed at. Also, the use of swaps,portfolio swaps and other derivative contracts entered into by privateagreements may create a counterparty risk for the <strong>Fund</strong> concerned.This risk is mitigated by the fact that the counterparties must beinstitutions subject to prudential supervision and that the counterpartyrisk on a single entity must be limited in accordance with the investmentrestrictions. The secondary market price of such derivative instrumentswill vary in accordance with the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer.In the event of failure of the counterparty the Company may only rankas an unsecured creditor in respect of sums due from the issuer orbroker in question, meaning that the Company may be unable to recoverpart or all of the assets exposed to that counterparty and any suchrecovery may be significantly delayed. Such delay or loss would be tothe detriment of the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value of Shares in the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>.Liquidity RiskIn extreme market conditions there may be a lack of liquidity in themarket which may adversely affect the ease of disposal of assets andthe price at which the securities held by a <strong>Fund</strong> can be sold. Theabsence of reliable pricing information in a particular security held by a<strong>Fund</strong> may make it difficult to assess reliably the market value of assets.Sector and/or Geographical Concentration<strong>Fund</strong>s which specialise in investing in a particular market sector orgeographical region are likely to be more volatile than funds with abroader range of investments. This risk is greater in relation toinvestment in emerging market countries which may experiencepolitical and economic changes.Risks Related to Investment into Undervalued Companies<strong>Fund</strong>s may invest in entities considered by the Manager to beundervalued. Although undervalued entities can be a great source forgrowth, they may also present some financial weakness and have aneconomical uncertain viability or be undergoing mergers, turnaroundsor takeovers. Investments in such entities could therefore exposesuch <strong>Fund</strong>s to higher risks than investment in entities whichdemonstrate a greater seniority or more stabilised structures and solidfinancial resources.OptionsOptions are associated with particular risks which can differ inimportance, depending on the position taken:• The purchase price of a call or put option is lost on the dateof maturity.• If a call option is sold, there is a risk that the Company will no longerbe able to participate in especially strong appreciation of the asset.If put options are sold, there is a risk that the Company will beobligated to acquire assets at the exercise price, even though themarket value of these assets is significantly lower.• The value of the Company can be more strongly influenced throughthe leveraging of options than would be the case if assets wereacquired directly.Financial Futures ContractsFinancial futures contracts are associated with considerableopportunities as well as risks, because only a fraction of the relevantcontract size (initial deposit) must be paid immediately. If theexpectations of the Investment Manager are not fulfilled, the differencebetween the price at the time of conclusion and the market price mustbe borne by the Company by no later than the due date of thetransaction. The amount of the possible loss is thus not known inadvance and may exceed any collateral provided.Total Return Swaps, Portfolio swaps and Credit Default SwapsSwaps involve a particular contracting party risk in that the contractingparty may be unable to meet its payment obligations, or may do soonly partially or late. Swaps also involve a market risk arising fromfluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates.In the case of swaps which convert into foreign currency, there arealso exchange rate opportunities and risks. Moreover, these swapsare subject to what is called a transfer risk, something which alsoexists with other swaps involving cross-border transactions.Credit default swaps may trade differently from the funded securitiesof the reference entity. In adverse market conditions, the basis(difference between the spread on bonds and the spread on creditdefault swaps) can be significantly more volatile than funded securities.23


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDRisk Factors■■Risk FactorsParticipation NotesParticipation notes involve a particular contracting party risk in that thecontracting party may be unable to meet its payment obligations, ormay do so only partially or late. They also involve a market risk arisingfrom fluctuations in exchange rates and interest rates.In the case of participation notes which convert into foreign currency,there are also exchange rate opportunities and risks. Moreover, theseparticipation notes are subject to what is called a transfer risk,something which also exists with other participation notes involvingcross-border transactions.Possible Losses in Securities Option Transactions, FinancialFutures Contracts, Option Transactions on Financial FuturesContracts and Securities Index OptionsSecurities option dealings, financial futures contracts and optiondealings on financial futures contracts and securities index options(option rights and warrants) are all forward exchange transactions.However, since the possible profits arising from such transactions mustbe set against high possible losses, the investor must realise that:• the time-limited rights acquired from forward exchange transactionscan collapse or suffer a reduction in value;• the amount of the possible loss is not known in advance and canexceed any collateral provided;• it may not be possible, or may only be possible at a loss, to effectdealings through which the risks from forward exchange transactionswhich have been effected are to be excluded or limited; and• in addition to the above risks, the exercising of two linked forwardexchange transactions involves additional risks which depend onthe financial futures contracts/securities index options thus createdand may result in a loss far above the original investment in theprice paid for the option right or warrant.Currency Exposure and Passive Currency HedgingEach Class of each <strong>Fund</strong> will have its own Class Currency and each<strong>Fund</strong> will have its own Base Currency. The Shares of each Class willbe issued and redeemed by reference to the Class Currencyconcerned. The assets of each <strong>Fund</strong> may, however, be invested insecurities and other investments that are not denominated in its ClassCurrency and/or Base Currency. Accordingly, the value of such assetsmay be affected favourably or unfavourably by fluctuations in currencyrates and therefore each <strong>Fund</strong> will necessarily be subject to foreignexchange risks relative to its Class Currency and/or Base Currency.In particular, a Shareholder who acquires Shares of a <strong>Fund</strong> will besubject to foreign exchange risk in respect of those assets of that <strong>Fund</strong>which are denominated in any currency other than the currency ofinvestment in that <strong>Fund</strong> (irrespective of whether the currency ofinvestment was also the Class Currency and/or Base Currency).A Shareholder whose assets and liabilities are predominantly inanother currency should take into account the potential risk of loss (orgain) arising from fluctuations in value between the currencydenomination of the assets of a <strong>Fund</strong> in which the Shareholder investsand the Shareholder’s own currency of investment.A Shareholder who subscribes for Shares, or requests that redemptionpayments be made, in a currency other than the Base Currency of therelevant <strong>Fund</strong> should also take into account the potential risk of lossarising from fluctuations in value between the relevant Class Currencyand/or Base Currency and the currency that the Shareholder used tosubscribe for Shares or the currency in which the Shareholderrequests that redemption payments be made.Passive currency hedging strategies may be used by the InvestmentManager, at its sole discretion, to seek to reduce the impact of adversemovements between the Class Currency and/or Base Currency of a<strong>Fund</strong> and the currencies of the assets in which a <strong>Fund</strong> is invested.This may involve the use of foreign exchange transactions and/orcurrency derivatives. However, there is no guarantee that any hedgingtechniques will be employed or, if employed, that they will be effectivein managing the currency exposures to which a <strong>Fund</strong> may be subject.Each Class will be responsible for any currency hedging costsapplicable to the assets attributable to it.Exchange Rate Hedging TransactionsExchange rate hedging transactions serve to reduce exchange raterisks. As these hedging transactions only protect the Company to alimited extent to one part of the exchange rate losses, it cannot beruled out that exchange rate fluctuations can have a negative impacton the performance of the Company.Future Exchange TransactionsThe costs and possible losses arising in future exchange transactionsthrough the purchase of the corresponding option rights and warrantsreduce the operating profit of the Company. In this respect the notesregarding securities option transactions and financial futures contractsalso apply here.Lending SecuritiesThe loan of securities involves a particular contracting party risk in thatthe contracting party may be unable to (i) meet its payment obligations,or may do so only partially or late; and/or (ii) return the securities lentor to return them in time; and/or (iii) provide additional collateral whenso required. In the event that the borrowers of securities fail to fulfiltheir settlement obligations, the Company will suffer losses if theproceeds from realisation of the collateral possessed by the Companyare less than the value of the securities lent.Risk Reduction and Risk Avoidance MeasuresThe Investment Manager uses modern methods of analysis tooptimise the opportunity/risk ratio of an investment in securities.Through shifting and temporarily higher cash balances, the portion ofthe Company not invested in securities serves the objectives of theinvestment policy in that it reduces the effect of possible price falls insecurities investments. Nevertheless, no assurance can be given thatthe objectives of the investment policy will be reached.Emerging and Less Developed MarketsIn emerging and less developed markets, the legal, judicial andregulatory infrastructure is still developing but there is much legaluncertainty both for local market participants and their overseascounterparts. Some markets may carry higher risks for investors whoshould therefore ensure that, before investing, they understand therisks involved and are satisfied that an investment is suitable as partof their portfolio. Investments in emerging and less developed marketsshould be made only by sophisticated investors or professionals whohave independent knowledge of the relevant markets, are able toconsider and weigh the various risks presented by such investments,and have the financial resources necessary to bear the substantial riskof loss of investment in such investments.24


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDRisk Factors■■Risk FactorsEmerging and Less Developed Markets continuedExamples of economies that the Investment Manager currentlyconsiders to be emerging market economies include, without limitation,countries in Asia, Latin America, the Middle East, southern andeastern Europe, the region formerly known as the USSR, and Africa.These include, again without limitation: Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia,Czech Republic, Egypt, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia,Mexico, Morocco, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Russia, South Africa,Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey, Sri Lanka and Pakistan.Political and Economic Risk FactorsThere is in some emerging market countries, in which certain <strong>Fund</strong>smay invest, a higher than usual risk of nationalisation, expropriation orconfiscatory taxation, any of which might have an adverse effect onthe value of investments in those countries. Emerging market countriesmay also be subject to higher than usual risks of political changes,government regulation, social instability or diplomatic developments(including war) which could adversely affect the economies of therelevant countries and thus the value of investments in those countries.The economics of many emerging market countries can be heavilydependent on international trade and, accordingly, have been andmay continue to be adversely affected by trade barriers, managedadjustments on relative currency values and other protectionistmeasures imposed or negotiated by the countries with which theytrade and international economic developments generally.Foreign Investment RestrictionsThere are, in certain of the countries in which investments of certain<strong>Fund</strong>s are proposed, restrictions on investment by foreign investors.In addition, the ability of foreign investors, such as the <strong>Fund</strong>, toparticipate in privatisations in certain foreign countries may be limitedby local law, or the terms on which the <strong>Fund</strong> may be permitted toparticipate may be less advantageous than those for local investors.These factors and any restrictions introduced in the future could limitthe availability to the <strong>Fund</strong> of attractive investment opportunities.Settlement and Custodial RiskSettlement and safe custody of securities in certain emerging countriesinvolve certain risks and considerations which do not normally applywhen settling transactions and providing safe custody services inmore developed countries. The Custodian will not have absoluteliability for the acts, omissions or creditworthiness of local agents,depositaries, registrars or brokers involved in the safekeeping or thesettlement of the assets of the Company.TaxationAny change in the Company’s tax status or in taxation legislation couldaffect the value of the investments held by and the performance of theCompany. Representations in this document concerning the taxationof investors in Shares are based upon current tax law and practicewhich is subject to change.The Company may from time to time purchase investments that willsubject the Company to withholding taxes or exchange controls invarious jurisdictions. In the event that withholding taxes or exchangecontrols are imposed with respect to any of the Company’sinvestments, the effect generally reduces the income or proceedsreceived by the Company on its investments.Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (‘FATCA’)The Hiring Incentives to Restore Employment Act (the ‘Hire Act’) wassigned into US law in March 2010. It includes provisions generallyknown as FATCA. The intention of these is that details of US investorsholding assets outside the US will be reported by financial institutionsto the IRS, as a safeguard against US tax evasion. As a result of theHire Act, and to discourage non-US financial institutions from stayingoutside this regime, all US securities held by a financial institution thatdoes not enter and comply with the regime will be subject to a US taxwithholding of 30% on gross sales proceeds as well as income. Thisregime will be effective from 1 January 2014. The basic terms of theHire Act currently appear to include the Company as a ‘FinancialInstitution’, such that in order to comply, the Company may require allShareholders to provide mandatory documentary evidence of their taxresidence. However, the Hire Act grants the US Treasury Secretaryextensive powers to relax or waive the requirements where aninstitution is deemed to pose a low risk of being used for the purposesof US tax evasion. The detailed regulations that are expected to definehow widely those powers will in fact be exercised have not yet beenfinalised, and accordingly the Company cannot at this time accuratelyassess the extent of the requirements that FATCA may place upon it.Smaller CompaniesThe Company may invest in companies with a market capitalisation ofless than €250 million. As smaller companies do not have the financialstrength, diversity and resources of larger companies, they may find itmore difficult to operate in periods of economic slowdown or recession.In addition, the relatively small capitalisation of such companies couldmake the market in their shares less liquid and, as a consequence,their share price more volatile than investments in larger companies.Conflicts of InterestThe Directors, the Investment Manager, the Distributors, the<strong>Management</strong> Company, the Administrator and the Custodian and theirrespective affiliates, officers, directors and shareholders, employeesand agents (collectively the ‘Parties’) are or may be involved in otherfinancial, investment and professional activities which may onoccasion cause a conflict of interest with the management of theCompany and/or their respective roles with respect to the Company.These activities may include managing or advising other investmentfunds, purchases and sales of securities, investment managementservices, brokerage services, valuation of unlisted securities (incircumstances in which fees may increase as the value of assetsincreases) and serving as directors, officers, advisers or agents ofother funds or companies, including funds or companies in which theCompany may invest.In particular, the Investment Manager may be involved in advising ormanaging other investment funds which have similar or overlappinginvestment objectives to or with the Company or <strong>Fund</strong>s. Each of theParties will use its reasonable endeavours to ensure that theperformance of their respective duties will not be impaired by any suchinvolvement they may have and that any conflicts which may arise willbe resolved fairly and in the best interests of Shareholders. TheInvestment Manager will endeavour to ensure a fair allocation ofinvestments among each of its clients.Suspension of Share DealingsInvestors are reminded that in certain circumstances their right toredeem Shares may be limited (see page 12 under ‘Limitationon Redemption’).Fees and ExpensesParticular attention should be paid to the level of fees and expensescharged as their proportionate effect may be determined by <strong>Fund</strong> size.25


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDRisk Factors■■Risk FactorsSector and/or Geographical Concentration<strong>Fund</strong>s which specialise in investing in a particular market sector orgeographical region are likely to be more volatile than funds with abroader range of investments. This risk is greater in relation toinvestment in emerging market countries which may experiencepolitical and economic changes.Performance Fee RiskThe existence of a performance fee on a particular <strong>Fund</strong> has thebenefit that it aligns the Investment Manager’s interests more with thatof the Shareholders. However, because part of the InvestmentManager’s remuneration is calculated by reference to the performanceof the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>, there is the possibility that the InvestmentManager will be tempted to make investments that are riskier andmore speculative than if the remuneration was linked purely to the sizeof that <strong>Fund</strong>.Segregation of <strong>Asset</strong>s and Liabilities between ClassesThe Company is composed of the different <strong>Fund</strong>s listed in the sectionentitled ‘Key Features’, each <strong>Fund</strong> corresponding to a distinct part ofthe assets and liabilities of the Company. Whilst each <strong>Fund</strong> maysegregate the assets and liabilities attributable to each Class itmaintains in its books and records, any third party creditor will be acreditor of the relevant <strong>Fund</strong>. For example, if a particular <strong>Fund</strong> defaultsunder any liability owed to one or more third parties where the relevantliability is attributable to a particular Class, such third party or thirdparties will have recourse to all the assets of the relevant <strong>Fund</strong> (i.e. theassets attributable to all Classes, and not just the assets of the Classto which the relevant liability is attributable in the books and records ofthe <strong>Fund</strong>) to satisfy such liability or liabilities.Early Termination of a <strong>Fund</strong>The Directors may terminate a <strong>Fund</strong> in accordance with the provisionsset forth under section entitled ‘Merger, Liquidation and Reorganizationof <strong>Fund</strong>s’. In the event of early termination, the <strong>Fund</strong> concerned wouldhave to distribute to the Shareholders their pro rata interest in theassets of that <strong>Fund</strong>. It is possible that at the time of such sale ordistribution, certain investments held by the <strong>Fund</strong> concerned may beworth less than the initial cost of such investments, thereby resultingin a substantial loss to the Shareholders concerned.Risks Related to Repurchase TransactionsIn relation to repurchase transactions and sale with right of repurchasetransactions in which a <strong>Fund</strong> acts as seller and in the event of thefailure of the counterparty to which securities have been sold, investorsshould be aware that (A) there is the risk that the value of the securitiessold to the counterparty is higher than the cash originally received,whether because of a market appreciation of the value of saidsecurities or an improvement in the credit rating of their issuer; that (B)(i) locking investment positions in transactions of excessive size orduration, (ii) delays in recovering, at maturity, the securities sold, mayrestrict the ability of a <strong>Fund</strong> to meet delivery obligations under securitysales or payment obligations arising from redemption requests.Investment in RussiaIf investment in Russia is authorised in the relevant Information Sheet,certain <strong>Fund</strong>s may invest in securities listed on the RTS StockExchange, on the Moscow Interbank Currency Exchange in Russiaand on any other Regulated Markets in Russia which would further berecognised as such by the CSSF.Investments in Russia are currently subject to certain heightened riskswith regard to the ownership and custody of securities. In Russiashareholdings are evidenced by entries in the books of a company orits registrar (which is neither an agent nor responsible to theCustodian). No certificates representing shareholdings in Russiancompanies will be held by the Custodian or any of its localcorrespondents or in an effective central depository system. As aresult of this system and the lack of effective state regulation andenforcement, the <strong>Fund</strong>s could lose its registration and ownership ofRussian securities through fraud, negligence or even mere oversight.However, in recognition of such risks, the Russian correspondent ofthe Custodian is following increased ‘due diligence’ procedures. Thecorrespondent has entered into agreements with Russian companyregistrars and will only permit investment in those companies thathave adequate registrar procedures in place. In addition, thesettlement risk is minimised as the correspondent will not release cashuntil registrar extracts have been received and checked. In addition,Russian debt securities have an increased custodial risk associatedwith them as such securities are, in accordance with market practice,held in custody with Russian institutions which may not have adequateinsurance coverage to cover loss due to theft, destruction or default.Risks related to investment in Underlying <strong>Fund</strong>sThe Investment Manager may not always be provided with detailedinformation regarding all of the investments made by Underlying<strong>Fund</strong>s because certain of this information may be consideredproprietary information by the managers of those Underlying <strong>Fund</strong>s.This potential lack of access to information may make it more difficultfor the Investment Manager to select, allocate among and evaluateindividual fund managers.Despite the due diligence procedures which will be used to select andmonitor the individual Underlying <strong>Fund</strong>s in which the assets of the<strong>Fund</strong>s will be invested, there can be no assurance that pastperformance information in relation thereto will be indicative of howsuch investments will perform (either in terms of profitability orcorrelation) in the future.Although the Investment Manager will seek to monitor theinvestments and trading activities of the Underlying <strong>Fund</strong>s in whichthe <strong>Fund</strong> has invested, investment decisions will normally be madeindependently at the level of such Underlying <strong>Fund</strong>s and it is possiblethat some managers will take positions in the same security or inissues of the same industry or country at the same time.Consequently, the possibility also exists that one Underlying <strong>Fund</strong>may purchase an instrument at about the same time as anotherUnderlying <strong>Fund</strong> decides to sell it. There can be no guarantee thatthe selection of the managers will actually result in a diversificationof investment styles and that the positions taken by the Underlying<strong>Fund</strong>s will always be consistent.Potential investors must be aware that Underlying <strong>Fund</strong>s will besubject to management fees and other expenses. As a result,Shareholders may suffer management fees and expenses incurredboth at the level of the Company and the Underlying <strong>Fund</strong>s in whichthe Company invests. There may also be a duplication of subscriptionand/or redemption fees.26


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDRisk Factors■■Risk FactorsRisks related to commoditiesCommodities, to which some of the <strong>Fund</strong>s may be exposed throughthe use of financial derivative instruments, are assets that havetangible properties, such as oil, metals, and agricultural products. Aninvestment in commodities may not be suitable for all investors.Commodities and commodity-linked securities and derivatives may besubject to heightened risks and may be affected by overall marketmovements, changes in interest rates, and other factors such asweather, disease, embargoes, and international economic, regulatoryand political developments, as well as the trading activity of speculatorsand arbitrageurs in the underlying. The commodity markets (includingthe markets for commodity-linked securities and derivatives) may besubject to a degree of volatility that may prove higher than in equity orbond markets due to their sensitivity to the development of commodityprices and their substantial exposure to emerging markets.Risks related to the European sovereign risks crisisThe <strong>Fund</strong>s invest in equity or equity-related securities whereby theissuers have their registered office or exercise a predominant part oftheir economic activities in Europe. In light of the current fiscalconditions and concerns in relation to the sovereign risk of certainEuropean countries, there is an increased amount of volatility, liquidity,price and foreign exchange risk associated with investments inEurope. The performance of the <strong>Fund</strong>s could deteriorate significantlyshould an adverse credit event occur such as, but not limited to, thedowngrade of the sovereign credit rating of a European country orwithdrawal from the Euro currency by one or more member states ofthe European Monetary Union.27


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDTaxation■■TaxationThe following information is based on the law and practice currently inforce in Luxembourg. The information is not exhaustive and, if potentialinvestors are in any doubt as to their taxation position, they shouldconsult their professional adviser. Investors should note that tax lawand interpretation can change and that, in particular, the levels andbases of, and reliefs from, taxation may change and that changes mayalter the benefits of investment in the Company.The CompanyThe Company is not subject to any Luxembourg tax on profits orincome. However, as at the date of publication of this <strong>Prospectus</strong>, theCompany is liable in Luxembourg to a taxe d’abonnement of 0.05%per annum of its NAV, such tax being payable quarterly on the basisof the value of the net assets of the relevant <strong>Fund</strong> at the end of therelevant calendar quarter. The taxe d’abonnement is levied at a rate of0.01% per annum on <strong>Fund</strong>s or Classes reserved to InstitutionalInvestors. No such tax will be payable in respect of the portion of theassets of the <strong>Fund</strong> invested in other Luxembourg collective investmentundertakings. No Stamp Duty or other tax is payable in Luxembourgon the issue of Shares.No Luxembourg tax is payable on the realised or unrealised capitalappreciation of the assets of the Company. Income received from theCompany on its investments may be subject to non-recoverablewithholding and other taxes in the countries of origin. Neither theInvestment Manager nor the Custodian will obtain receipts for suchtaxes either for individual or for all Shareholders. However, theCompany may benefit from certain double-tax treaties and be able inthese cases to recover the withholding taxes in the country of origin.The Directors intend that the Company should so conduct its affairsthat it will be resident in Luxembourg for tax purposes.Taxation of Shareholders in LuxembourgUnder current Luxembourg legislation, Shareholders may be subjectto capital gains, income, inheritance or other taxes dependent ontheir individual circumstances. Shareholders should consult theirown professional adviser if they are in any doubt as to their owntaxation position.i) Luxembourg residents:ii)Shareholders resident in Luxembourg will be liable to tax oncapital gains on the disposal of any holding in the Company ifthey have held more than 10% of the share capital of theCompany at any time during the five years preceding thedisposal (important participation). Shareholders holding lessthan 10% of the share capital of the Company at any time duringthe five years preceding the disposal will not be liable to tax oncapital gains unless they dispose of their holding within sixmonths of the date of acquisition. Dividend income will be subjectto income tax in the hands of a Luxembourg resident Shareholder.Shareholders not resident in Luxembourg:The information in this section is subject to and qualified by theEU tax considerations set forth below.A disposal of a holding in the Company will constitute a disposalfor the purposes of Luxembourg tax on capital gains. Luxembourgtax on capital gains is generally overruled by applicabledouble-tax treaties however, Shareholders who are in any doubtover their position are advised to consult their own professionaladviser. The tax treaty between Luxembourg and the UKexempts UK resident Shareholders from Luxembourg tax oncapital gains.Subject to the EU provisions detailed below, dividends received byLuxembourg non-residents are not subject to Luxembourg tax.There is no withholding tax on the distributions paid by the Companywhether or not the Shareholder is resident in Luxembourg.EU Tax Considerations for Individuals Resident in the EU or inCertain Third Countries or Dependent or Associated TerritoriesThe EU Council Directive 2003/48/EC on taxation of savings incomein the form of interest payments (the ‘Directive’) provides that from1 July 2005, paying agents established in a member state of the EU orcertain dependent or associated territories of member states whomake savings income payments to individuals resident in anothermember state or to residual entities within the sense of the Directive(and depending on the jurisdiction of establishment of the payingagent, possibly also to individuals and residual entities within thesense of the Directive resident in certain dependent or associatedterritories of member states) will be obliged, depending on thejurisdiction of the payment agent either to report details of the paymentand payee to fiscal authorities or to withhold tax from it. A furtheroption allowing an EU resident to submit an exemption certificate isalso available. The Luxembourg law of 21 June 2005 (the ‘2005 Law’)has implemented the Directive into national law.Although exchange of information is the ultimate objective of theDirective, Luxembourg, Austria and certain dependent or associatedterritories of EU Member states (such as Jersey and Guernsey) haveopted to apply withholding tax during a transitional period. Underthese arrangements, withholding tax will apply when a Luxembourgpaying agent makes distributions from and redemptions of shares incertain funds and where the beneficiary of these proceeds falls withinthe scope of the Directive. However, an individual may specificallyrequire to be brought within the Directive exchange of informationregime which would result in no withholding tax being applied butinstead information regarding the distribution being provided to thefiscal authority in his country of residence.Dividends distributed by a <strong>Fund</strong> of the Company will be subject tothese obligations if more than 15% of such <strong>Fund</strong>’s assets are investedin debt claims as defined in the 2005 Law and proceeds realised byShareholders on the redemption or sale of Shares in a <strong>Fund</strong> will besubject to the Directive or 2005 Law if more than 25% of such <strong>Fund</strong>’sassets are invested in debt claims. The applicable withholding tax is ata rate of 35% since 1 July 2011.The Company and the Administrator reserve the right to reject anyapplication for Shares if the information provided by any prospectiveinvestor does not meet the standards required by the 2005 Law as aresult of the Directive.GeneralThe above statements regarding taxation are based on advicereceived by the Company regarding the law and practice in force atthe date of this document. Prospective investors should be aware thatlevels and bases of taxation are subject to change and that the valueof any relief from taxation depends upon the individual circumstancesof the tax payer.28


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDTaxation■■TaxationGeneral continuedIt is expected that Shareholders in the Company will be resident fortax purposes in many different countries. Consequently, no attemptis made in the <strong>Prospectus</strong> to summarise the taxation consequencesfor each investor. These consequences will vary in accordance withthe law and practice currently in force in a Shareholder’s country ofcitizenship, residence, domicile or incorporation and with hispersonal circumstances.Shareholders should ascertain from their professional advisers theconsequences to them of acquiring, holding, redeeming, transferring,selling or converting Shares under the relevant laws of thejurisdictions to which they are subject, including the tax consequencesand any exchange control requirement. These consequences,including the availability of and the value of tax relief to Shareholders,will vary with the law and practice of the Shareholder’s country ofcitizenship, residence, domicile or incorporation and with theirpersonal circumstances.29

Thereafter,the Performance Period will correspond to the Company’s accountingperiod ending on 30 September in each year.If the Investment <strong>Management</strong> Agreement is terminated or a Class iswound-up or otherwise ceases to be a Class of the Company, thePerformance Period with respect to that Class or Classes, as the casemay be, will end on the date of such termination, winding-up or dateupon which the Class ceases to be a Class of the Company. Thetermination of the Investment <strong>Management</strong> Agreement will have noeffect on the High Watermark.Performance Fee CalculationThe calculation of the Performance Fee, where applicable, may beexpressed as follows:PF = (A x (B - C - D)) x (E x F)Where:A = the percentage of the Performance Fee in respect of each Classas specified in the relevant Information Sheet for each <strong>Fund</strong>;B = the percentage total return of the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value per Share(having added to this the amount of any dividends per Share paidor payable and any accrual for unpaid Performance Fees duringthe Performance Period) in the Class from the first Valuation Pointin the Performance Period to the last Valuation Point in thePerformance Period;C = the cumulative percentage shortfall, if any, carried forward fromthe previous Performance Period(s), being the ‘High Watermark’;D = the percentage total return of the Benchmark for the relevantClass from the first Valuation Point in the Performance Period tothe last Valuation Point in the Performance Period;E = the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value per Share in the Class (having added to thisthe amount of any dividends per Share paid or payable and anyaccrual for unpaid Performance Fees during the PerformancePeriod) on the last Valuation Day of the Performance Period; andF = the time weighted average of the total number of Shares in issuein the relevant Class during that Performance Period.In the event that the calculation of (B - C - D) produces a negativeresult then that shortfall, expressed as a percentage, shall be carriedforward to the next Performance Period as a hurdle to the InvestmentManager’s entitlement to a Performance Fee (identified as the HighWatermark in ‘C’ above).The Performance Fee is calculated and accrued on each Valuation Dayand is payable to the Investment Manager within 30 days of the end ofthe Performance Period. For the purposes of calculating thePerformance Fee accruals, on each Valuation Day the formula for thecalculation of the Performance Fee shall be applied as if that ValuationDay were the last Valuation Day in the Performance Period.The Performance Fee may be adjusted in the event of any change inthe manner in which the Benchmark is calculated or published and anyrebasing of the Benchmark. For Classes which are denominated in acurrency other than that of the Benchmark, the Benchmark shall be redenominatedin the currency of the Class or as the Directors mayotherwise think fit.TimingCalculation periods for the Performance Fee correspond to theaccounting periods of the Company. The Performance Fee will bepayable within 30 days of the end of the accounting period.33

Such law currently provides for the deposit inescrow at the Caisse de Consignation of any amounts which have notbeen claimed by any Shareholder at the time of the closing of theliquidation. Amounts which have not been claimed from escrow withinthe prescribed period are liable to be forfeited in accordance with theprovisions of Luxembourg law.Merger, Liquidation and Reorganisation of <strong>Fund</strong>sThe Directors may decide to liquidate a <strong>Fund</strong> if the net assets of such<strong>Fund</strong> fall below the equivalent of €10,000,000 or if, at their absolutediscretion, the Directors believe that a change in the economic orpolitical situation relating to the <strong>Fund</strong> concerned would justify suchliquidation or if, for financial and commercial reasons, the Directorsconsider it in the general best interests of the Shareholders to liquidatethe relevant <strong>Fund</strong>, if permitted by, and under the conditions set forthin, the Articles. The decision to liquidate will be published by theCompany prior to the effective date of the liquidation and thepublication will indicate the reasons for, and the procedures of, theliquidation operations. Unless the Directors otherwise decide in theinterests of, or to keep equal treatment between, the Shareholders,the Shareholders of the <strong>Fund</strong> concerned may continue to requestredemption or conversion of their Shares. <strong>Asset</strong>s which could not bedistributed to their beneficiaries upon the close of the liquidation of the<strong>Fund</strong> concerned will be deposited with the Caisse de Consignation onbehalf of their beneficiaries.As a general rule, the liquidation shall be closed within a period of nine(9) months from the date of liquidation. However, subject to regulatoryapproval, this period of liquidation may be extended. Any outstaningamount of the liquidation income that shall not have been distributedbefore such closure will be deposited with the Caisse de Consignationand held at the disposal of the rightful Shareholders until the end of theperiod of limitation (prescription).The Directors may decide to allocate the assets of any <strong>Fund</strong> to thoseof another existing <strong>Fund</strong> within the Company (the ‘new <strong>Fund</strong>’) and toredesignate the shares of the sub-class or sub-classes concerned asshares of the new <strong>Fund</strong> (following a split or consolidation, if necessary,and the payment of the amount corresponding to any fractionalentitlement to Shareholders). The Directors may also decide to allocatethe assets of any <strong>Fund</strong> to another undertaking for collective investmentorganised under the provisions of Part I of the Law or under thelegislation of a member state of the European Union, or of the EuropeanEconomic Area, implementing Directive 2009/65/EC or to acompartment within such other undertaking for collective investment.The mergers will be undertaken within the framework of the Law.Any merger shall be decided by the Directors unless the Directorsdecide to submit the decision for a merger to a meeting of Shareholdersof the <strong>Fund</strong> concerned. No quorum is required for such a meeting anddecisions are taken by a simple majority of the votes cast. In case of amerger of a <strong>Fund</strong> where, as a result, the Company ceases to exist, themerger shall be decided by a meeting of Shareholders resolving inaccordance with the quorum and majority requirements for changingthe Articles.The Directors may also decide to consolidate or split Classes ofShares in any type of Shares or split or consolidate different types ofShares within a <strong>Fund</strong>. Such decision will be published in the samemanner as described in the paragraph on the liquidation of a <strong>Fund</strong>hereabove and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.Under the same circumstances as provided in the paragraph on theliquidation of a <strong>Fund</strong> hereabove, the Directors may decide thereorganisation of a <strong>Fund</strong>, by means of a division into two or more<strong>Fund</strong>s. Such decision will be published in accordance with applicablelaws and regulations. Such publication will normally be made onemonth before the date on which the reorganisation becomes effectivein order to enable the Shareholders to request redemption of theirShares, free of charge, before the operation involving division into twoor more <strong>Fund</strong>s becomes effective.Creation of new <strong>Fund</strong>sThe Board of Directors of the Company may decide, at any time, toestablish new <strong>Fund</strong>s. On the establishment of such additional <strong>Fund</strong>s,the present <strong>Prospectus</strong> shall be adapted accordingly. Furthermore inthe case of <strong>Fund</strong>s or Classes created, which are not yet opened forsubscription, the Board of Directors of the Company is empowered todetermine at any time the initial period of subscription and the initialsubscription price. At the opening of a <strong>Fund</strong> or Class, the <strong>Prospectus</strong>and the Simplified <strong>Prospectus</strong>es shall, if appropriate, be updated.Risk management processThe Company employs a risk-management process which enables it,together with the <strong>Management</strong> Company, to monitor and measure thevalue of each <strong>Fund</strong>’s investment positions and their contribution to theoverall risk profile of each <strong>Fund</strong>. The risk monitoring process isperformed by the <strong>Management</strong> Company in accordance with thespecifications of the Board of Directors and with a frequency andmethodology appropriate to the risk profile of each <strong>Fund</strong>.The permanent risk management function is the responsibility of the‘Director of Risk’ of the <strong>Management</strong> Company and is responsible formonitoring the financial risks, paying particular attention to financialderivative instruments and the risks associated therewith.The <strong>Management</strong> Company shall calculate the <strong>Fund</strong>’s global exposureby using the commitment approach, the Value at Risk approach or otheradvanced risk measurement methodologies as may be appropriate.Each <strong>Fund</strong> must calculate its global exposure on at least a daily basis andthe limits on global exposure must be complied with on an ongoing basis.The <strong>Management</strong> Company shall, at the same time, ensure that themethod selected to measure global exposure is appropriate, takinginto account the investment strategy pursued by the <strong>Fund</strong>, the typesand complexities of the financial derivative instruments used, and theproportion of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s portfolio which comprises financial derivativeinstruments. Where a <strong>Fund</strong> employs techniques and instrumentsincluding repurchase agreements or securities lending transactions inorder to generate additional leverage or exposure to market risk, the<strong>Management</strong> Company shall take these transactions into considerationwhen calculating global exposure. The selection of the methodology tocalculate global exposure should be based on the self-assessment bythe <strong>Fund</strong> of its risk profile resulting from its investment policy, includingits use of financial derivative instruments.34


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDGeneral Information■■General InformationUse of the Value at Risk (VaR) ApproachA <strong>Fund</strong> must use an advanced risk measurement methodology(supported by a stress testing program) such as the Value at Risk(VaR) approach to calculate global exposure where:1. it engages in complex investment strategies which representmore than a negligible part of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investment policy2. it has more than a negligible exposure to exotic derivatives3. the commitment approach doesn’t adequately capture themarket risk of the portfolioAs a general rule, the <strong>Fund</strong> should use a maximum loss approach toassess whether the complex investment strategy or the use of exoticderivatives represent more than a negligible exposure. Thoseinvestment strategies that can be pursued by the <strong>Fund</strong> through theuse of financial derivative instruments for which the commitmentapproach does not adequately capture the related risks (for instancenon-directional risks like volatility risk, gamma risk or basis risk) and/or for which it does not give, with regards to the complexity of thestrategy, an adequate and risk sensitive view of the related risks, implythe use of an advanced risk measurement methodology. Someexamples of such investment strategies can be:• hedge fund-like strategies• option strategies (delta-neutral or volatility strategies)• arbitrage strategies (interest rate curve, convertible bondarbitrage, etc.)• complex long/short and/or market neutral strategies• strategies that use derivatives to create a highly leveragedinvestment positionUse of the Commitment ApproachA <strong>Fund</strong> that is not using an advanced risk measurement methodologyto calculate global exposure must apply the commitment approach.The risk function of the <strong>Management</strong> Company and the InvestmentManager each use additional quantitative measures in relation tothese <strong>Fund</strong>s, such as the Value-At-Risk (‘VaR’) of the portfolio,coupled with ad hoc stress tests and regular back test programs inorder to validate the VaR model used.In practice the risk function of the <strong>Management</strong> Company and theInvestment Manager each monitor the VaR figures on a daily basiswith regard to the limits required by the CSSF (being no more than (A)20% for <strong>Fund</strong>s with an absolute return benchmark (such as LIBOR) or(B) a choice of either an absolute VaR of no more than 20% or aspecified VaR relative to the Benchmark for those <strong>Fund</strong>s with anequity index benchmark (such as FTSE World Index), in accordancewith the provisions of CSSF Circular 11/512 and the UCITS Directive).The <strong>Management</strong> Company and the Investment Manager eachperforms further in depth analysis should any such limit be exceeded.The quantitative results of exposure coming from the calculationengines system are compared to the various limits set out forthe considered <strong>Fund</strong> (whether relative or absolute) and anybreach is further investigated and to the Investment Manager forremedial action.Ad hoc stress tests are also run on a regular basis in order to assessthe impacts of low probability events on the <strong>Fund</strong>. The results of thesestress tests scenarios are reported to the Company and the InvestmentManager. Similarly, in order to validate the VaR model used, back testprograms are run on a regular basis and the results are also reportedto the Company and the Investment Manager.Further information relating to the risk management and control policy,procedures and methods employed by the <strong>Management</strong> Companyand the Investment Manager are available on request from the<strong>Management</strong> Company and the Investment Manager respectively.Data Protection – Disclosure of InformationShareholders are informed that their personal data or the informationgiven in the subscription documents or otherwise in connection withan application to subscribe for Shares, as well as details of theirshareholding, will be stored in digital form and processed in compliancewith the provisions of the Luxembourg law of 2 August 2002 on dataprotection, as amended, as more fully described in the section ‘DataProtection’ of the Application Form.Investors should be aware that personal information may be disclosed:(i) to the Investment Manager or any other company within the <strong>Jupiter</strong>Group which may be based in countries where privacy laws do notexist or provide less protection than the laws in the EU; or (ii) whenrequired by applicable law and regulation.

Intendinginvestors are strongly advised to seek independent professionaladvice concerning possible taxation or other considerations thatmay be relevant to their particular circumstances.Potential investors should note that the following information relatesonly to United Kingdom taxation and is based on advice received bythe Directors regarding current law and practice. It is therefore subjectto any subsequent changes. The Directors of the <strong>Fund</strong> are informed ofthe following general taxation consequences for investors resident inthe United Kingdom and subject to UK tax:a) The Company is not resident in the UK for taxation purposes andit is the intention of the Directors to continue to conduct theaffairs of the Company so that it does not become resident in theUK. Accordingly, it should not be subject to UK taxation. TheCompany is an ‘offshore fund’ within the offshore fundslegislation in Part 8 of the Taxation (International etc) Act 2010.b) The Offshore <strong>Fund</strong>s (Tax) Regulations 2009 (the ‘Regulations’)provide that if an investor resident or ordinarily resident in the UKfor taxation purposes holds an interest in an offshore fund, andthe fund does not obtain certification as a ‘reporting fund’ for theentire period in which the investor holds that interest, any gain(calculated without the benefit of indexation) accruing to theinvestor upon sale or other disposal of the interest (including adisposal pursuant to a switch transaction) will be taxed asincome and not as a capital gain.c) Section 355 of the Taxation (International etc) Act 2010 definesthe term ‘offshore fund’ for the purposes of applying theRegulations. For these purposes, each of the constituentClasses of the Company will be regarded as a separate offshorefund. Accordingly, the different Classes of the Company musteach obtain ‘reporting fund’ status in their own right. The Classeswhich have been certified for all accounting periods up to30 September 2010 as ‘distributing funds’ will be treated ashaving obtained ‘reporting fund’ status for the purposes ofapplying the Regulations. The Directors expect these Classes tocontinue to be certified as ‘distributing funds’ for the accountingperiod ending 30 September 2011 - these Classes, if so certified,will then be regarded as ‘reporting funds’ for the purposes of theRegulations for that period. Further, the Directors currentlyintend to apply for ‘reporting fund’ status in respect of all Classeswhich are currently certified as distributing funds for theaccounting period ending 30 September 2012. The Directorsalso intend to maintain ‘reporting fund’ status for all Classescurrently holding this status. Please note there can be noguarantee that these Classes will remain so certified and theDirectors do not accept any liability for such certification notbeing successfully. Once reporting fund status is obtained fromHMRC for each Class, it will remain in place for all subsequentperiods provided that the annual reporting requirements aresatisfied. The current official list of reporting <strong>Fund</strong>s may beinspected on the HMRC website at: http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/collective/rep-funds.xls. The official list of Distributing <strong>Fund</strong>smay inspected at: http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/offshorefunds/offshore-funds.xlsd) Under the Regulations, all ‘reporting funds’ will be required todisclose annually to investors the ‘total reportable income’arising in each certified Class in order to maintain reporting fund’status. The Directors currently intend to apply for ‘reporting fund’status for the accounting period ending 30 September 2012 andall subsequent periods. UK resident Shareholders who hold theirinterests at the end of the reporting period to which the reportedincome relates will therefore be subject to income tax orcorporation tax on the higher of any cash distribution paid andthe full reported amount for the relevant Classes held. Thereported income will be deemed to arise to UK Shareholders on37


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDSupplementary Information for Investors in the United Kingdom■■Supplementary Information for Investors in the United Kingdomthe date the report is issued by the Directors provided that therelevant Class reports within 6 months of the accounting periodend. It is expected that the report will be available within 6months of the accounting period end. For accounting periods upto and including the period ending 30 September 2011, ‘reportingfund’ certification will be obtained in accordance with transitionalprovisions in the Regulations, which apply where a fund haspreviously been certified as a ‘distributing fund’ for UK taxpurposes. Shareholders in the relevant Classes during theseperiods will be taxed only on actual cash distributions received.The ‘total reportable income’ for those Classes which areclassified as Reporting <strong>Fund</strong>s will be published online at: www.jupiteronline.com.e) Subject to paragraph (c) above, capital gains arising on adisposal of Shares by individuals will be liable to capital gains taxat either 18% or 28% if, together with other net gains, theyexceed the annual exemption, which is GBP 10,600 for the fiscalyear ending 5 April 2012. The applicable rate of capital gains taxfor other non-corporate investors is currently a flat rate of 18%.In the case of companies generally, gains arising on a disposalof Shares (after indexation allowance), will be liable to corporationtax. The mainstream rate of corporation tax is currently 28%.Tax rates may be different for subsequent financial years.f) Since the Company does not propose to seek certification fromHMRC as a Distributing <strong>Fund</strong> or as a Reporting <strong>Fund</strong> for allClasses in issue, any gains arising on a redemption, disposal (ordeemed disposal) or on conversion from one Class to another ofShares in a Class which is not specifically identified in therelevant Information Sheet as being a Distributing <strong>Fund</strong> or aReporting <strong>Fund</strong> will be ‘offshore income gains’ for tax purposesand will generally be liable to tax as income for Shareholderswho are resident or ordinarily resident in the UK for tax purposes.Gains chargeable to tax as income under the offshore fundsprovisions are not eligible for Capital Gains Tax annualexemption which is available annually for individuals or, in thecase of corporate Shareholders, an indexation allowance.g) Dividends received by Shareholders liable to UK income tax orreinvested on their behalf in further Shares, or reported income inexcess of the dividends received by Shareholders, received fromcorporate offshore funds which are largely invested in equities willbe charged to income tax as dividends from a non-UK residentcompany. These income receipts should be declared on theinvestor’s tax return and will be taxable at the applicable rate ofincome tax. The rates for the fiscal year ended 5 April 2012 is 10%where net income is less than GBP 35,000 and 32.5% or 42.5%for higher rate or additional rate tax payers respectively. IndividualShareholders resident or ordinarily resident in the UK will generallybenefit from a non-refundable tax credit in respect of suchdividends received from corporate offshore funds. The effect ofthis notional tax credit is that dividends will be deemed to bereceived net of a 10% withholding tax.h) It should be noted that, where 60% or more of the fund assets areinvested in interest-bearing products, individual Shareholdersresident or ordinarily resident in the UK receiving distributionsand/or reported income will be treated for UK tax purposes ashaving received interest income and not a dividend. This willmean that the applicable tax rates will be those for interest income(currently 20% basic rate, 40% higher rate and 50% for additionalrate tax payers respectively) and that no tax credit will apply.i) Individual Shareholders resident or ordinarily resident In the UKshould note the provisions of Chapter 2 of Part 13 of the IncomeTax Act 2007. These provisions are directed to the prevention ofavoidance of income tax through transactions resulting in thetransfer of assets or income to persons (including companies)resident or domiciled outside the UK and may render them liableto taxation in respect of any undistributed income and profits ofthe <strong>Fund</strong> on an annual basis. This legislation is not directedtowards the taxation of capital gains.j) The attention of investors resident or ordinarily resident in theUK (and who, if individuals. are also domiciled in the UK forthose purposes) is also drawn to the provisions of Section 13 ofTaxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 (‘Section 13’). Underthese provisions, where a chargeable gain accrues to a companythat is not resident in the UK, but which would be a closecompany if it were resident in the UK, a person may be treatedas though a proportional part of that chargeable gain, calculatedby reference to their interest in the company, has accrued tothem. No liability under Section 13 can be incurred by such aperson, however, where such proportion does not exceed onetenthof the gain.k) Dividends received by Shareholders subject to UK corporationtax or reinvested on their behalf in further Shares, will be treatedas income receipts. For Shareholders subject to UK corporationtax most forms of overseas dividends will be exempt from thecharge to UK corporation tax provided they fall within one of theexempt classes of distributions listed in Part 9A of the CorporationTax Act 2009.l) The attention of corporate Shareholders is drawn to Chapter 3 ofPart 6 of the Corporation Tax Act 2009, whereby relevant interestsof companies in offshore funds may be deemed to constitute aloan relationship with the consequence that all profits and losseson such relevant interests are chargeable to corporation tax inaccordance with a fair value basis of accounting. The relevantprovisions apply where the market value of interest bearingsecuritiesand other qualifying investments of a fund comprisesmore than 60% of the value of all the investments of that fund atany time during an accounting period.m) Corporate Shareholders resident in the UK should note theprovisions of Chapter 4 of Part 17 of the Taxes Act.

Theseprovisions affect UK resident companies who have an interest ofat least 25% in the profits of a non-resident company, whichdoes not distribute substantially all its income. In view of theproposed income distribution policy, it is not anticipated thatthese provisions will have any material effect on UK residentcorporate Shareholders. This legislation is not directed towardsthe taxation of capital gains.n) Investors who are insurance companies within the charge toUnited Kingdom corporation taxation holding their Shares in the<strong>Fund</strong> for the purposes of their long-term business (other thanpension business) will be deemed to dispose of and immediatelyreacquire those Shares at the end of each accounting period.38

TheInvestment Manager believes the new categories better communicatethe link between environmental and economic issues. They alsoreflect the Investment Manager’s belief that investment inenvironmental solutions businesses is an investment in long-termglobal structural growth.InfrastructureThere has been a marked increase in global infrastructure spending inrecent years as emerging market economies look to support rapidgrowth and mature economies seek to modernise. Patterns in bothemerging and developed markets have trended towards infrastructureof lower environmental impact (i.e. less pollution, more alternativeenergy sources etc.) in recognition of its longer-term economic benefits.This is creating opportunities for businesses involved in renewableenergy generation, smart electrical grids, clean and wastewatersystems, engineering consultants, transport infrastructure andcommunication networks.Resource efficiencyIncreased global demand for natural resources has stimulatedsignificant investment in resource efficiency (i.e. lower impact methodsof using existing resources such as energy, water and land, as well asresource recycling). This is presenting opportunities for businessesinvolved in energy and water efficiency, wastewater recycling, airpollution technology, waste recycling (from residential to industrialmaterials) and sustainable agriculture and land management.DemographicsRising populations and changing demographic patterns around theworld create unique challenges when it comes to environmental andeconomic sustainability. Ageing populations in the West are puttingpressure on healthcare, for example, while a growing global populationis affecting agriculture and food production. These challenges havecreated opportunities for businesses that are providing sustainable, lowimpact solutions in sustainable consumption, public transport, health,agriculture and education. The <strong>Fund</strong> continues to use a stock-focusedinvestment approach. Taking a long-term bottom-up approach toinvestment and every stock within the portfolios is there on its ownfundamental merits.

THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> New EuropeRisk Factors specific to <strong>Jupiter</strong> New Europe:Emerging and Less Developed MarketsIn emerging and less developed markets, the legal, judicial andregulatory infrastructure is still developing but there is much legaluncertainty both for local market participants and their overseascounterparts. Some markets may carry higher risks for investors whoshould therefore ensure that, before investing, they understand therisks involved and are satisfied that an investment is suitable as partof their portfolio. Investments in emerging and less developed marketsshould be made only by sophisticated investors or professionals whohave independent knowledge of the relevant markets, are able toconsider and weigh the various risks presented by such investments,and have the financial resources necessary to bear the substantial riskof loss of investment in such investments.Smaller CompaniesThe amount of capital raised in the securities markets of in territoriesset out in the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investment policies (the ‘Territories’) may besubstantially less than the amount raised in major Western markets.As a result of lower trading volumes, the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investmentportfolio may experience greater price volatility and significantlylower liquidity than a portfolio invested in equity securities ofcompanies based in more developed West European countriesor the United States.In addition to their small size, illiquidity and volatility, the securitiesmarkets in the Territories are less developed than the major Westernsecurities markets. There is less state regulation and supervision ofthese securities markets, and less reliable information available tobrokers and investors than in the major Western markets andconsequently less investor protection.The prices at which the <strong>Fund</strong> may acquire investments may beaffected by the market’s anticipation of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investing, by otherpersons trading on material non-public information, and by brokerstrading securities in anticipation of transactions by the <strong>Fund</strong> inparticular securities.Brokerage commissions and other transaction costs and related taxeson securities transactions in the Territories are generally higher thanin Western securities markets.Currency ExposureWhere the Investment Manager deems it appropriate to invest incompanies which earn revenues, have expenses or make distributionsin the currency of the relevant Territory, currency risks in connectiontherewith will be borne indirectly by investors. The potential lossresulting from unfavourable currency risks will be considered whenmaking investments.Corporate Legislation and JurisprudenceCorporate legislation in the Territories regarding the fiduciaryresponsibility of directors and officers and protection of shareholdersis significantly less developed than in the major Western jurisdictionsand may impose inconsistent or even contradictory requirements oncompanies. Some rights typically sought by Western investors maynot be available or enforceable. Also, the legal systems in some of theTerritories have not fully adapted to the requirements and standards ofan advanced market economy. The rudimentary state of commerciallaw, combined with a judiciary which lacks experience and knowledgeof market traditions and rules, makes the outcome of any potentialcommercial litigation unpredictable.Reporting StandardsAccounting, auditing and financial reporting standards andrequirements in the Territories are in many respects less stringent andless consistent than those applicable in many major Western countries.Less information is available to investors investing in such securitiesthan to investors investing in securities of companies in many majorWestern countries and the historic information which is available is notnecessarily comparable or relevant.TaxationTaxation of dividends and capital gains received by foreign investorsvaries among the Territories and, in some cases may be comparativelyhigh. Many of the Territories purport to offer preferential tax treatmentto foreign investors. Such preferences may apply only if a foreigninvestor’s equity stake in the relevant company exceeds a certainpercentage or meets other requirements. The Investment Managerwill take reasonable steps to mitigate the <strong>Fund</strong>’s tax liabilities.WarrantsWhen warrants are held, the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value per Share may fluctuatemore than would otherwise be the case because of the greatervolatility of warrant prices.Risks Relating to Derivative Financial Instruments andTechniquesThe <strong>Fund</strong> may invest in derivative financial instruments, comprisingoptions, futures, index futures and currency forward contracts forhedging and efficient portfolio management, as more fully described inthe investment policy. There is a risk that the use of such instrumentswill not achieve the goals aimed at. Also, the use of swaps, portfolioswaps and other derivative contracts entered into by private agreementsmay create a counterparty risk for the <strong>Fund</strong>. This risk is mitigated by thefact that the counterparties must be institutions subject to prudentialsupervision and that the counterparty risk on a single entity must belimited in accordance with the investment restrictions.This Information Sheet forms an integral part of this <strong>Prospectus</strong>.The information contained in this Information Sheet should beread in conjunction with the full information contained in this<strong>Prospectus</strong>. In particular, investors should read the risk warningsset out in the section headed ‘Risk Factors’ above.52

THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> China Sustainable GrowthInvestment Instruments which may be held by <strong>Jupiter</strong>China Sustainable GrowthSubject to the limits set out in the Investment Restrictions, the <strong>Fund</strong>may invest in the following:• China B-Shares – The <strong>Fund</strong> may invest in shares of companiesincorporated in mainland China that are traded in the mainlandB-Share markets. Unlike prices in the A-Share market, the pricesof B-Shares are quoted in foreign currencies. The China B-Sharemarket is composed of the Shanghai Stock Exchange (whichsettles in US Dollars) and the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (whichsettles in Hong Kong Dollars).• China H-Shares – The <strong>Fund</strong> may invest in shares of companiesincorporated in mainland China and listed on the Hong Kong StockExchange. H-Shares are traded in Hong Kong Dollars on theHong Kong Stock Exchange. H-shares are issued by companiesincorporated in mainland China, and must meet Hong Kong’s listingand disclosure requirements in order to be listed on the Hong KongStock Exchange. H-shares may be traded by foreigners and are oftenthe vehicle for extending a Chinese privatisation to foreign investors.• Red Chip Companies – The <strong>Fund</strong> may invest in shares ofcompanies with controlling Chinese shareholders that areincorporated outside mainland China and listed on the Hong KongStock Exchange. Red Chip shares are traded in Hong Kong Dollarson the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.• China-Related Companies – The <strong>Fund</strong> may invest in shares ofChina-related companies listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange,the Singapore Stock Exchange or other exchanges. A ‘Chinarelated’company is a company that (i) is organised in, or for whichthe principal securities trading market is in, China; or (ii) derivesor that is expected to derive 50% or more of its annual revenuesprimarily from either goods produced, sales made or servicesperformed in China.• Short Term Investments – The <strong>Fund</strong> may also invest in moneymarket and other short term debt securities and cash equivalents,which may be denominated in Renminbi.• China A-Shares – At present, subject to the limits set out in theInvestment Restrictions in this Information Sheet, the <strong>Fund</strong> maygain exposure to A-Shares of Chinese companies listed on theShanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges indirectly by investingin participation notes (where the return on each participation noteis linked to the performance of a particular A-Share). Participationnotes are offered by regulated stockbrokers who provide suchproducts on the basis of their own existing qualified foreigninstitutional investors (‘QFII’) statuses. Any participation notes inwhich the <strong>Fund</strong> may invest will generally be in the form of loanparticipations. Investment in participation notes involves additionalrisks, including credit risk (against the issuer of the participationnote), interest rate risk and liquidity risk, as each is furtherdescribed under ‘Risk Factors’ on page 23 of this <strong>Prospectus</strong>. The<strong>Fund</strong> may currently seek exposure to China A-Shares throughparticipation notes. Such exposure will not exceed 10% of theNet <strong>Asset</strong> Value of the <strong>Fund</strong>. For the avoidance of doubt, the<strong>Fund</strong> has not been assigned with QFII status and the InvestmentManager has not yet lodged an application for QFII status.• Short Term Investments – The <strong>Fund</strong> may also invest in moneymarket securities, short term debt securities and other cashequivalents, which may be denominated in Renminbi and othercurrencies.What is QFII Status?Currently, the equity of listed companies in mainland China seekingboth domestic and foreign capital includes A-Shares denominatedand traded in Renminbi and B-Shares denominated in Renminbi buttraded in either US Dollars or Hong Kong Dollars. Foreign investorshave historically been unable to participate in the A-Share market.However, investment regulations promulgated by the China SecuritiesRegulatory Commission (‘CSRC’) (the ‘Investment Regulations’)provide a legal framework for certain QFIIs, including certain fundmanagement institutions, insurance companies, securities companiesand other asset management institutions, to invest in A-Shares onthe Shanghai and Shenzhen Stock Exchanges and certain othersecurities historically not eligible for investment by non-Chineseinvestors, through quotas granted by the State Administration forForeign Exchange of the PRC (‘SAFE’) to those QFIIs which havebeen approved by the CSRC.A QFII may invest in stocks listed and traded on a stock exchange,bonds listed and traded on a stock exchange, securities investmentfunds, warrants listed and traded on a stock exchange, and otherfinancial instruments approved by the CSRC (due to technicalreasons, QFIIs currently cannot participate in the repurchase ofgovernment bonds and trading of corporate bonds). The CSRC grantsQFII licences to certain fund management institutions, insurancecompanies, securities companies and other asset managementinstitutions for investing in Chinese securities markets. Investmentcompanies are not currently within the types of companies that maybe granted a QFII licence.The Investment Manager may apply for a QFII licence upon successfulacceptance of which:• the Investment Manager would be authorised to invest in ChinaA-Shares and other permitted China securities on behalf of the<strong>Fund</strong> up to a specified investment quota (the ‘A-Share Quota’); and• the <strong>Fund</strong> may invest through the Investment Manager or otherwisein A-Shares of Chinese companies listed on the Shanghai andShenzhen Stock Exchanges up to 30% of its net assets in ChinaA-Shares subject to applicable regulatory approval.Sustainability Assessment of Investments held by <strong>Jupiter</strong> ChinaSustainable GrowthThe <strong>Fund</strong> is not intended to form part of the suite of specialistscreened green and SRI products managed by the <strong>Jupiter</strong> Group. TheInvestment Manager will nevertheless benefit from specialist researchand analysis in relation to each of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s holdings from the SRI& Governance equity research team within the Investment Manager.The SRI & Governance Team will review companies within the <strong>Fund</strong>’sinvestment portfolio to assess whether they are actively improving theirsustainability performance through their products and processes forthe commercial benefit of the companies concerned. Their focus willbe on the key environmental or social issues that they believe have thepotential to affect the <strong>Fund</strong>’s financial performance or risk profile.55


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> China Sustainable GrowthInvestment Instruments which may be held by <strong>Jupiter</strong>China Sustainable Growth continuedSustainability Assessment of Investments held by <strong>Jupiter</strong> ChinaSustainable Growth continuedThe Investment Manager will not be bound to sell or preclude anyinvestment from the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investment portfolio as a consequence ofadverse research findings by the SRI & Governance Team. However,positive results are likely to be considered to be a positive indicator ofother attractive investment attributes. The Investment Manager andthe <strong>Fund</strong> expressly acknowledge that the strict screening that hasenabled the development of green and SRI funds in European andother Western economies is not suitable for investment in China.The sustainability assessment begins with a review of all publiclyavailable information on a company’s sustainability profile, includinginformation on a company’s own website or information reported togovernmental agencies. The Investment Manager then considers acompany’s industry to determine what environmental challenges arefacing that industry. Factors that the Investment Manager considersduring this process include:• Environmental policy and management system;• Regulatory compliance;• Waste reduction and management;• Resource efficiency;• Environmental attributes of products;• Environmental purchasing considerations, and• Worker environment, health and safety programmes.The Investment Manager sees its environmental and governanceresearch as an opportunity to create a more comprehensiveunderstanding of a company. The research helps understand how acompany approaches its environmental responsibilities and whetherconsideration is being given to both long term risks and opportunities.The Investment Manager believes that companies that are managingboth environmental risks and opportunities operate the mostsustainable businesses and will also make the best investments overthe long term.Risk Factors specific to <strong>Jupiter</strong> China Sustainable GrowthCountry RiskInvesting in equities of companies with substantial assets in orrevenues derived from China involves special considerations andcertain risks not typically associated with more developed markets oreconomies. The risks inherent in China can generally be expectedto result in increased volatility in the shares of companies in greaterChina and portfolios which invest in them when compared to theircounterparts in developed markets. Investment companies investingin China generally can be expected to display greater share price andNet <strong>Asset</strong> Value volatility than those investing in developed markets.The <strong>Fund</strong>’s investments are subject to country specific risk factors dueto the concentrated strategy of investment in companies that derive asignificant share of their business from activities within the People’sRepublic of China:• Legal Risk – The legal system of the People’s Republic of China(‘PRC’) is based on the PRC Constitution and is made up of writtenlaws, regulations, circulars and directives which may not afford theCompany the same level of certainty in relation to matters suchas contracts and disputes as may be available in more developedmarkets. Accordingly, in such circumstances the returns to the<strong>Fund</strong> may be materially and adversely affected.• Changes in Government Policies and the RegulatoryEnvironment – Certain investments of the <strong>Fund</strong> may be subjectto PRC laws and regulations and policies implemented by the PRCgovernment from time to time. PRC government policies may havea material impact on the industries in which the <strong>Fund</strong> invests. If anycompany in which the <strong>Fund</strong> invests should become subject to anyform of negative governmental control, there could be a materialadverse effect on the value of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investments.The PRC government is still in the process of developing its legalsystem, so as to meet the needs of investors and to encourageforeign investment. As the PRC economy is developing generallyat a faster pace than its legal system, some degree of uncertaintyexists in the application of the existing laws and regulations to certainevents or circumstances. Some of the laws and regulations, and theinterpretation, implementation and enforcement thereof, are still atthe experimental stage and are therefore subject to policy changes.Furthermore, precedents on the interpretation, implementation andenforcement of the PRC laws and regulations are limited, and courtdecisions in the PRC are not binding on lower courts. Accordingly,the outcome of dispute resolutions may not be as consistent orpredictable as in other more developed jurisdictions. It may alsobe difficult to obtain swift and equitable enforcement of the laws inthe PRC or the enforcement of a judgement by a court of anotherjurisdiction. The Company recognises that making investments inPRC companies entails certain ambiguities and risks. The lack ofconsistency and predictability in the outcome of dispute resolutions,the lack of certainty in the interpretation, implementation andenforcement of the PRC laws and regulations and political system,may affect returns to Shareholders.• Economic Considerations – The PRC has a long history ofpre-planned economic policy and is subject to one, five and 10year plans formulated by the PRC government. In recent years, thePRC government has introduced various economic reforms aimedat transforming the PRC economy from a planned economy intoa market economy with socialist characteristics. These economicreforms allow greater utilisation of market forces in the allocationof resources and greater autonomy for enterprises in theiroperations. However, many rules and regulations implemented bythe PRC government are still at an early stage of development,and further refinements and amendments are necessary to enablethe economic system to develop into a more sophisticated form.Further, there can be no assurance that such measures will beapplied consistently and effectively or that the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investmentreturns will not be adversely affected by such reforms. The PRCgovernment has only recently encouraged substantial privateeconomic activity and there can be no assurance that the PRCgovernment’s pursuit of economic reforms will be consistent oreffective. However, it is considered that the PRC’s admittance intothe World Trade Organisation will encourage the PRC governmentto continue to pursue its current strategy of encouraging privateeconomic activity. Many of the reforms are unprecedented orin an experimental stage and are expected to be refined andmodified in order to enable the economic system to developinto a more sophisticated form. There is no assurance that thecontinued introduction of such reforms will not have a materialand adverse effect on the returns on the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investments.56


THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> China Sustainable GrowthRisk Factors specific to <strong>Jupiter</strong> China Sustainable GrowthcontinuedIn addition, the economy of the PRC differs from the economiesof most developed countries in many respects, including theamount of governmental involvement, the level of development,the growth rate, the controls on foreign exchange and allocation ofresources. The economy of the PRC has experienced significantand consistent growth in the past 20 years but growth has beenuneven both geographically and among various sectors of theeconomy. Economic growth has been accompanied by a periodof high inflation. The PRC government has implemented variousmeasures from time to time to control inflation and restrain the rateof economic growth.• Devaluation or Appreciation in the Value of the Renminbi,Restrictions on Convertibility of the Renminbi and ExchangeControl Restrictions in the PRC – The external value of theRenminbi is subject to changes in policies of the PRC governmentand to international economic and political developments. Thereis therefore a risk that fluctuations in the Renminbi exchange ratemay be experienced and any large movement in the value of theRenminbi against the US Dollar could have an adverse effect onthe <strong>Fund</strong>’s portfolio of Chinese investments.• Tax Uncertainty – Tax laws and regulations in China are underconstant development and often subject to change as a result ofchanging government policy. Such changes may occur withoutsufficient warning. There is a risk that changes in tax policy andregulations may adversely affect the <strong>Fund</strong>’s return on investments.• Increased brokerage commissions and transaction charges –Brokerage commissions and other transaction costs and custodyfees are generally higher in China than they are in Westernsecurities markets.• Investments in A-Shares – The Shanghai and Shenzhen StockExchanges divide listed shares into two classes: A-Shares andB-Shares. A-Shares are traded on the Shanghai and ShenzhenStock Exchanges in Chinese currency with all repatriations ofgains and income requiring the approval of SAFE. B-Shares aretraded on the Shenzhen and Shanghai Stock Exchanges in HongKong Dollars and US Dollars, respectively. QFII historically wereunable to participate in the A-Share market. However, pursuant toan administrative notice issued by the CSRC on 24 August 2006implementing the Investment Regulations, a QFII may investin stocks listed and traded on a stock exchange, bonds listedand traded on a stock exchange, securities investment funds,warrants listed and traded on a stock exchange and other financialinstruments approved by the CSRC. Restrictions continue to existand capital therefore cannot flow freely into the A-Share market. Asa result it is possible that in the event of a market disruption, theliquidity of the A-Share market and trading prices of A-Shares couldbe more severely affected than the liquidity and trading prices ofmarkets where securities are freely tradable and capital thereforeflows more freely. The Company cannot predict the nature orduration of such a market disruption or the impact that it may haveon the A-Share market and the short term and long term prospectsof its investments in the A-Share market. The Chinese governmenthas in the past taken actions that benefited holders of A-Shares, inwhich the Chinese government waived a withholding tax on profitsgenerated from investments in A-Shares albeit that such a taxcould be levied pursuant to applicable Chinese law. As A-Sharesbecome more available to foreign investors, such as the <strong>Fund</strong>, theChinese government may be less likely to take action that wouldbenefit holders of A-Shares.Definitions used in this Information Sheet• ‘Greater China’ means China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan;and• ‘Renminbi’ means the legal currency of the PRC from time to time.This Information Sheet forms an integral part of this <strong>Prospectus</strong>.The information contained in this Information Sheet should beread in conjunction with the full information contained in this<strong>Prospectus</strong>.

THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> India SelectSAARC Region Securities Market continuedmarkets are undergoing a period of growth and changes which maylead to difficulties in settlement and recording of transactions and ininterpreting and applying the relevant regulations. In addition, thereis a low level of regulation and enforcement activity in such securitiesmarkets. Certain regulatory authorities have only recently been giventhe power and duty to prohibit fraudulent and unfair trade practicesrelating to securities markets, including insider trading, and to regulatesubstantial acquisitions of shares and takeovers of companies.Certain securities markets in the SAARC region are not subject tosuch restrictions.A disproportionately large percentage of market capitalisation andtrading volume in the stock exchanges and markets in the SAARCregion is represented by a relatively small number of issues.Significant delays have been common in settling trade on certain stockexchanges and registering transfers of securities. The above factorscould negatively affect the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value of the <strong>Fund</strong>, the ability toredeem the <strong>Fund</strong>’s shares and the price at which the <strong>Fund</strong>’s Sharesmay be redeemed.Market CharacteristicsThe disclosure and regulatory standards applicable to Indian companiesare in many respects less stringent than in other, more developed,equity markets. Accounting, auditing and financial standards are alsoless rigorous. The securities market in India is smaller, less liquid andmore volatile than more developed stock markets. The equities ofsmaller or medium-sized Indian companies may be less marketablethan securities of similar companies traded on more developed marketsand such investments may carry a higher risk than investments inlarger Indian companies. Indian stock exchanges have in the pastbeen subject to temporary closures, broker defaults and failed trades.In particular, the settlement systems in the Indian Stock Exchangesare less developed and less reliable than settlement systems in moremature markets and vary considerably between exchanges.Political and Economic ConsiderationsThe <strong>Fund</strong> may be affected by political and economic developmentsin or affecting the SAARC region, including changes in governmentpolicy, taxation and social, ethnic and religious instability. Theeconomies of the countries in the SAARC region may differ, favourablyand unfavourably, from economies in more industrialised countries insuch respects as gross domestic product, rates of inflation, currencydepreciation, capital reinvestment, resource self sufficiency andbalance of payments position. The economies in the SAARC regionare heavily dependent upon international trade and accordingly havebeen and may continue to be adversely affected by trade barriers,exchange controls and other protectionist measures imposed ornegotiated by the countries with which they trade.India’s population comprises diverse religious and linguistic groupsand has been subject to periods of considerable ethnic and religioustension. The government continues to exercise significant influenceover many aspects of the economy and there can be no assurancethat there will be no change in policies implemented by the present orany future government.The current regional tensions and/or any escalations therein includingany conflicts, could adversely affect the <strong>Fund</strong> and/or those companiesin which it invests and/or could impair the ability of the <strong>Fund</strong> torealise its investments and/or repatriate the proceeds or returns fromsuch investments.WarrantsWhen warrants are held, the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value per Share may fluctuatemore than would otherwise be the case because of the greatervolatility of warrant prices.Risks Relating to Derivative Financial Instruments andTechniquesThe <strong>Fund</strong> may invest in derivative financial instruments, comprisingoptions, futures, index futures and currency forward contracts forhedging and efficient portfolio management, as more fully describedon page 20 of the <strong>Prospectus</strong>.

THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> Property SecuritiesRisk Factors specific to <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> Property SecuritiesThe <strong>Fund</strong> will not invest in property directly but, as a result of the<strong>Fund</strong>’s policy of investing in Property Securities, the <strong>Fund</strong> will havean indirect exposure to the risks associated with direct propertyownership. These include: property being a relatively illiquid assetclass; property assets being inherently subjective in value due to theindividual nature of each property; extended lay periods in tenantedproperties; tenant credit risk; an excess supply of property as a resultof overdevelopment; changes in planning law and practice; changesin property taxation or transaction costs; the availability of purchaseor development finance to the sector or in the geographical regionconcerned; and increases in interest rates. However, as each of the<strong>Fund</strong>’s investments will generally represent a portfolio in its own right,and having regard to the diversified nature of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s own portfolio,the <strong>Fund</strong>’s exposure to any individual property or tenant is expectedto be relatively low.Investment by the <strong>Fund</strong> in Property Securities also carries specificrisks including the following: movements in, or changes in sentimenttowards, property markets may result in disproportionate moves in thevalue of Property Securities; and REITs and/or property companiesmay be highly geared and subject to the risks associated with debtfinancing and the credit risk associated with the issuer of propertyrelatedsecurities.The Investment Manager may invest part of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s portfolio inREITs (real estate investment trusts or similar investment vehiclesfor real estate assets designed to offer tax transparency to investors)and/or other similar investment funds. The investment by the <strong>Fund</strong>in such funds will increase the aggregate management chargesborne by Shareholders; however, such investments are made withthe expectation that these will be outweighed by lower costs andincreased flexibility compared to holding property assets directly.Important Information for UK ShareholdersThe <strong>Fund</strong> will not be able to recover any UK tax credit associated withdividends that the <strong>Fund</strong> may receive from investee companies, suchas REITS, which are themselves tax resident in the UK.Furthermore, under the current offshore funds rules applicable inthe UK, any return generated by the <strong>Fund</strong> on investments in ‘nondistributing’ funds (as described on page 10 above) will be consideredto be income for UK tax purposes and will therefore fall to be distributedby way of dividend to investors in the Sterling UK Distributing Class(only) in accordance with the <strong>Fund</strong>’s stated dividend policy.Any change in the <strong>Fund</strong>’s tax status or in taxation legislation (includingthe tax treatment of dividends or other investment income received bythe <strong>Fund</strong>) could affect the value of the investments held by the <strong>Fund</strong>and/or affect the <strong>Fund</strong>’s ability to provide returns to Shareholders oralter the post-tax returns to Shareholders.The <strong>Fund</strong> may purchase investments that may be subject to exchangecontrols or withholding taxes in various jurisdictions. In the event thatexchange controls or withholding taxes are imposed with respect toany of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investments, the effect will generally be to reducethe income received by the <strong>Fund</strong> on its investments and/or the capitalvalue of the affected investments. This in turn may reduce the level ofdividends received by Shareholders.Statements in this <strong>Prospectus</strong> concerning taxation are based oncurrent taxation law and what is understood by the Directors to becurrent practice, both of which are subject to change, possibly withretrospective effect. In any event, the taxation of an investment in the<strong>Fund</strong> will depend on the individual circumstances of the investor, andprospective investors who are in any doubt should consult their taxadvisers before making an investment in the <strong>Fund</strong>.This Information Sheet forms an integral part of this <strong>Prospectus</strong>.The information contained in this Information Sheet should beread in conjunction with the full information contained in this<strong>Prospectus</strong>.

THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> EuropaInvestment ObjectiveTo generate positive long term returns across varying market conditionsprincipally from a portfolio of investments in European equities andequity related securities.Investment PolicyThe Investment Manager employs an active stock picking approachconcentrating on fundamental analysis of individual companies andtheir valuations. This process is used to identify instances both ofunder-valued and over-valued securities. Central to the researchfunction is an emphasis on regular contact with senior companymanagement. For companies judged to be under-valued, theInvestment Manager will hold a portfolio of physical long positions andwill use financial derivatives, primarily portfolio swaps, to establishsynthetic long positions. For companies judged to be over-valued, theInvestment Manager will initiate a synthetic short position, primarilythrough the use of portfolio swaps.The <strong>Fund</strong> has wider investment powers than most of the other <strong>Fund</strong>swithin the Company. In particular it has the power to use financialderivative instruments for investment purposes. The purpose behindthese wider investment powers is designed to enable the InvestmentManager to achieve positive returns across varying market conditions.Specific risks associated with the strategy and the instruments to beused are outlined below. The ability of the <strong>Fund</strong> to maintain a portfolioof both long and short positions also provides the flexibility to hedgeagainst periods of falling equity markets, to reduce the correlation withbroad stock market returns and to minimise the monthly volatility ofportfolio returns.The <strong>Fund</strong> is not subject to a predetermined country, industry, sector ormarket capitalisation bias and will not be managed by reference to anyEuropean equity index. In seeking to meet the Investment Objective,the Investment Manager will aim to limit volatility through diversifiedportfolio holdings and sector exposures, active management of thenet and gross portfolio exposure, and through the use of financialderivatives. The types of derivatives which the Investment Managerintends to use include portfolio swaps, sector swaps, single stock andequity index options and equity index futures.The <strong>Fund</strong> may also invest in cash, fixed interest securities, currencyexchange transactions, index related securities, money marketinstruments and deposits.Base CurrencyEuro.Launch Date4 January 2010.The <strong>Fund</strong> was known as ‘The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> - <strong>Jupiter</strong> EuropeanAbsolute Return’ prior to the change of name that was implementedon 18 October 2011.Currency of SubscriptionShares of each Class may be purchased in any freely convertiblecurrency at such conversion rates as may be determined by theCustodian and at the exchange rate risk of the investor, as more fullydescribed in the section headed ‘How to Subscribe’ in this <strong>Prospectus</strong>.Valuation DayEvery Business Day in Luxembourg.Dealing DeadlineFor subscription: 1.00pm (Luxembourg time) on every Valuation Day.For redemption and conversion: 1.00pm (Luxembourg time) fiveBusiness Days prior to the relevant Valuation Day.Price Informationwww.jupiteronline.com and at the registered office of the Companyon every Valuation Day.

THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> EuropaRisk Factors specific to <strong>Jupiter</strong> EuropaInvestors should note that the <strong>Fund</strong> may use Financial DerivativeInstruments for investment purposes rather than solely for hedgingand efficient portfolio management. This flexibility is intended to enablethe Investment Manager to meet the investment objective of the <strong>Fund</strong>.There are specific risks associated with the use of Financial DerivativeInstruments for investment purposes, which may be summarisedas follows:• Leverage Risk – Investment in financial derivative instrumentscan introduce significant leverage risks and lead to high volatility.This is because typically such instruments require very low marginpayment in relation to the amount of underlying exposure, andhence a small price movement in the value of the underlyingsecurity may lead to a significant loss or gain on the money actuallyinvested in the derivative. Note that although the <strong>Jupiter</strong> Europahas the power to invest in such derivatives and to consequentlyleverage its exposure to the market, the <strong>Fund</strong>s’ overall exposure toderivatives will not at any time exceed their total Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value.• Directional Risk – The <strong>Fund</strong> has the power to use derivativetransactions for both efficient portfolio management (e.g. hedgingexisting exposure) and for pure investment purposes. It should benoted that while derivatives used for hedging purposes can reduceor eliminate losses, such use can also reduce or eliminate gains.When derivatives are used purely for investment purposes, the<strong>Fund</strong> will be directly exposed to the risks of the derivative and anygains or losses on the derivative instrument will not be offset bycorresponding losses or gains in other assets within the <strong>Fund</strong>.• Short Selling Risk – Although the <strong>Fund</strong> does not have the abilityto enter into physical short positions of individual securities, it mayuse derivatives to enter into synthetic short positions. While suchpositions give the potential for the <strong>Fund</strong> to benefit from falling marketprices, it also opens the <strong>Fund</strong> up to the risk of potentially unlimitedlosses until such time as the derivative positions are closed out, asthere is no upper limit on the price to which the underlying securitymay rise.• Counterparty Risk – The <strong>Fund</strong> may enter into derivativetransactions in Over-The-Counter markets that expose it to thecreditworthiness of its counterparties and their ability to satisfy theterms of such contracts. Where a <strong>Fund</strong> enters into such derivativecontracts, it will be exposed to the risk that the counterparty maydefault on its obligations to perform under the relevant contract.The Investment Manager will seek to minimise such risk by onlyentering into transactions with counterparties that it believes tohave a high credit rating at the time the transaction is entered into,and by ensuring that formal legal agreements covering the terms ofthe contract are entered into in advance. In certain circumstanceshowever the Investment Manager may be unable to enforce orrely on rights and obligations arising under such agreements. Inthe event of bankruptcy or insolvency the <strong>Fund</strong> may only havethe rights of a general creditor and could therefore experiencedelays in liquidating the position and may incur significant losses.The Investment Manager may use one or more counterparties toundertake derivative transactions and may be required to pledgea <strong>Fund</strong>’s assets as collateral against these transactions. TheInvestment Manager will seek to further reduce counterparty riskby settling profits or losses on open contracts on a weekly basis.• Liquidity Risk – A number of the derivative instruments thatthe Investment Manager is likely to use will be traded Over-The-Counter, rather than on recognised exchanges. There is risk withsuch investments, that the more bespoke they become and themore complex they become the harder it is to unwind the positionsat market prices. However it is the intention of the InvestmentManager to invest mainly in derivatives which have a liquidunderlying investment that is traded on a recognised exchange inorder to reduce the exposure to liquidity risk.• Basis Risk – Basis risk is the risk of loss due to a divergence inthe difference between two rates or prices. There will be occasionswhere the Investment Manager of the <strong>Fund</strong> will use derivativessuch as sector swaps to hedge out existing market exposure to aparticular basket of stocks. Although the underlying constituents ofthe swap used may be similar to the basket of stocks being hedgedagainst, it is likely that there will be differences in the compositionand this may have an adverse impact on the hedging arrangement.• Cash Flow Risk – With most derivative contracts the counterpartywill require the investor to place a margin payment with it at theoutset of the contract, and this margin payment will be subjectto additional top-ups if and when the market moves against theinvestor. There is a risk therefore that the Investment Managerwill have insufficient cash in the <strong>Fund</strong> to meet the margin callsnecessary to sustain its position in a derivative contract. In suchcircumstances the Investment Manager will either have to close outthe position, or dispose of other assets in the <strong>Fund</strong> to raise therequired margin call.Definitions used in this Information Sheet• ‘EURIBOR’ means the Euro InterBank Offered Rate;• ‘Sterling LIBOR’ means the London InterBank Offered Ratedenominated in Sterling; and• ‘US Dollar LIBOR’ means the London InterBank Offered Rateddenominated in US Dollars.This Information Sheet forms an integral part of this <strong>Prospectus</strong>.The information contained in this Information Sheet should beread in conjunction with the full information contained in this<strong>Prospectus</strong>.

THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> Emerging Markets SelectRisk Factors specific to <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> EmergingMarkets SelectEmerging and Less Developed MarketsIn emerging and less developed markets, the legal, judicial andregulatory infrastructure is still developing but there is much legaluncertainty both for local market participants and their overseascounterparts. Some markets may carry higher risks for investors whoshould therefore ensure that, before investing, they understand therisks involved and are satisfied that an investment is suitable as partof their portfolio. Investments in emerging and less developed marketsshould be made only by sophisticated investors or professionals whohave independent knowledge of the relevant markets, are able toconsider and weigh the various risks presented by such investments,and have the financial resources necessary to bear the substantial riskof loss of investment in such investments.Smaller CompaniesThe amount of capital raised in the securities markets of the territoriesset out in the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investment policy (the ‘Territories’) may besubstantially less than the amount raised in major Western markets.As a result of lower trading volumes, the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investmentportfolio may experience greater price volatility and significantlylower liquidity than a portfolio invested in equity securities ofcompanies based in more developed West European countriesor the United States.In addition to their small size, illiquidity and volatility, the securitiesmarkets in the Territories are less developed than the major Westernsecurities markets. There is less state regulation and supervision ofthese securities markets, and less reliable information available tobrokers and investors than in the major Western markets andconsequently less investor protection.The prices at which the <strong>Fund</strong> may acquire investments may beaffected by the market’s anticipation of the <strong>Fund</strong>’s investing, by otherpersons trading on material non-public information, and by brokerstrading securities in anticipation of transactions by the <strong>Fund</strong> inparticular securities.Brokerage commissions and other transaction costs and related taxeson securities transactions in the Territories are generally higher thanin Western securities markets.Currency ExposureWhere the Investment Manager deems it appropriate to invest incompanies which earn revenues, have expenses or make distributionsin the currency of the relevant Territory, currency risks in connectiontherewith will be borne indirectly by investors. The potential lossresulting from unfavourable currency risks will be considered whenmaking investments.Corporate Legislation and JurisprudenceCorporate legislation in the Territories regarding the fiduciaryresponsibility of directors and officers and protection of shareholdersis significantly less developed than in the major Western jurisdictionsand may impose inconsistent or even contradictory requirements oncompanies. Some rights typically sought by Western investors maynot be available or enforceable. Also, the legal systems in some of theTerritories have not fully adapted to the requirements and standards ofan advanced market economy. The rudimentary state of commerciallaw, combined with a judiciary which lacks experience and knowledgeof market traditions and rules, makes the outcome of any potentialcommercial litigation unpredictable.Reporting StandardsAccounting, auditing and financial reporting standards andrequirements in the Territories are in many respects less stringent andless consistent than those applicable in many major Western countries.Less information is available to investors investing in such securitiesthan to investors investing in securities of companies in many majorWestern countries and the historic information which is available is notnecessarily comparable or relevant.TaxationTaxation of dividends and capital gains received by foreign investorsvaries among the Territories and, in some cases may be comparativelyhigh. Many of the Territories purport to offer preferential tax treatmentto foreign investors. Such preferences may apply only if a foreigninvestor’s equity stake in the relevant company exceeds a certainpercentage or meets other requirements. The Investment Managerwill take reasonable steps to mitigate the <strong>Fund</strong>’s tax liabilities.WarrantsWhen warrants are held, the Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value per Share may fluctuatemore than would otherwise be the case because of the greatervolatility of warrant prices.Risks Relating to Derivative Financial Instruments and TechniquesThe <strong>Fund</strong> may invest in derivative financial instruments, comprisingoptions, futures, index futures and currency forward contracts forhedging and efficient portfolio management, as more fully described inthe investment policy. There is a risk that the use of such instrumentswill not achieve the goals aimed at. Also, the use of swaps, portfolioswaps and other derivative contracts entered into by private agreementsmay create a counterparty risk for the <strong>Fund</strong>. This risk is mitigated by thefact that the counterparties must be institutions subject to prudentialsupervision and that the counterparty risk on a single entity must belimited in accordance with the investment restrictions.This Information Sheet forms an integral part of this <strong>Prospectus</strong>.The information contained in this Information Sheet should beread in conjunction with the full information contained in this<strong>Prospectus</strong>.

THE JUPITER GLOBAL FUNDInformation Sheet■■The <strong>Jupiter</strong> <strong>Global</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> – <strong>Jupiter</strong> Strategic Total ReturnRisk Factors specific to <strong>Jupiter</strong> Strategic Total ReturnInvestors should note that the <strong>Fund</strong> may use financial derivativeinstruments for investment purposes rather than solely for hedgingand efficient portfolio management. This flexibility is intended toenable the Investment Manager to meet the investment objective ofthe <strong>Fund</strong>. There are specific risks associated with the use of financialderivative instruments for investment purposes, which may besummarised as follows:• Leverage Risk – Investment in financial derivative instruments canintroduce leverage risks and lead to volatility. This is becausetypically such instruments require very low margin payment inrelation to the amount of underlying exposure, and hence a smallprice movement in the value of the underlying security may lead toa significant loss or gain on the money actually invested in thederivative. Note that although the <strong>Jupiter</strong> Strategic Total Return<strong>Fund</strong> has the power to invest in such derivatives and to consequentlyleverage its exposure to the market, the <strong>Fund</strong>s’ overall exposure toderivatives will not at any time exceed their total Net <strong>Asset</strong> Value.• Directional Risk – The <strong>Fund</strong> has the power to use derivativetransactions for both efficient portfolio management (e.g. hedgingexisting exposure) and for pure investment purposes. It should benoted that while derivatives used for hedging purposes can reduceor eliminate losses, such use can also reduce or eliminate gains.When derivatives are used purely for investment purposes, the<strong>Fund</strong> will be directly exposed to the risks of the derivative and anygains or losses on the derivative instrument will not be offset bycorresponding losses or gains in other assets within the <strong>Fund</strong>.• Short Selling Risk – Although the <strong>Fund</strong> does not have the abilityto enter into physical short positions of individual securities, it mayuse derivatives to enter into synthetic short positions. While suchpositions give the potential for the <strong>Fund</strong> to benefit from fallingmarket prices, it also opens the <strong>Fund</strong> up to the risk of potentiallyunlimited losses until such time as the derivative positions areclosed out, as there is no upper limit on the price to which theunderlying security may rise.• Counterparty Risk – The <strong>Fund</strong> may enter into derivativetransactions in Over-The-Counter markets that expose it to thecreditworthiness of its counterparties and their ability to satisfy theterms of such contracts. Where a <strong>Fund</strong> enters into such derivativecontracts, it will be exposed to the risk that the counterparty maydefault on its obligations to perform under the relevant contract.The Investment Manager will seek to minimise such risk by onlyentering into transactions with counterparties that it believes tohave a high credit rating at the time the transaction is entered into,and by ensuring that formal legal agreements covering the terms ofthe contract are entered into in advance. In certain circumstanceshowever the Investment Manager may be unable to enforce or relyon rights and obligations arising under such agreements. In theevent of bankruptcy or insolvency the <strong>Fund</strong> may only have therights of a general creditor and could therefore experience delays inliquidating the position and may incur significant losses. TheInvestment Manager may use one or more counterparties toundertake derivative transactions and may be required to pledge a<strong>Fund</strong>’s assets as collateral against these transactions. TheInvestment Manager will seek to further reduce counterparty risk bysettling profits or losses on open contracts on a weekly basis.• Liquidity Risk – A number of the derivative instruments thatthe Investment Manager is likely to use will be tradedOver-The-Counter, rather than on recognised exchanges. There isrisk with such investments, that the more bespoke they becomeand the more complex they become the harder it is to unwind thepositions at market prices. However it is the intention of theInvestment Manager to invest mainly in derivatives which have aliquid underlying investment that is traded on a recognisedexchange in order to reduce the exposure to liquidity risk.• Cash Flow Risk – With most derivative contracts the counterpartywill require the investor to place a margin payment with it at theoutset of the contract, and this margin payment will be subject toadditional top-ups if and when the market moves against theinvestor. There is a risk therefore that the Investment Manager willhave insufficient cash in the <strong>Fund</strong> to meet the margin callsnecessary to sustain its position in a derivative contract. In suchcircumstances the Investment Manager will either have to close outthe position, or dispose of other assets in the <strong>Fund</strong> to raise therequired margin call.Definitions used in this Information Sheet• ‘EURIBOR’ means the Euro InterBank Offered Rate;• ‘Sterling LIBOR’ means the London InterBank Offered Ratedenominated in Sterling; and• ‘CHF LIBOR’ means the London InterBank Offered Ratedenominated in Swiss Francs.• ‘US Dollar LIBOR’ means the London InterBank Offered Ratedenominated in US Dollars.This Information Sheet forms an integral part of this <strong>Prospectus</strong>.The information contained in this Information Sheet should beread in conjunction with the full information contained in this<strong>Prospectus</strong>.
