                                                              • You should consider your own risk tolerance level and financial circumstances before making any investment choices or investing according to the Default Investment Strategy. When, in your selection of funds or the Default Investment Strategy, you are in doubt as to whether a certain fund or the Default Investment Strategy is suitable for you (including whether it is consistent with your investment objective), you should seek financial and/ or professional advice and choose the investment choice(s) most suitable for you taking into account your circumstances.
                                                              • In the event that you do not make any investment choices, please be reminded that your contributions made and/ or accrued benefits transferred into the Plan will be invested in accordance with the Default Investment Strategy, which may not necessarily be suitable for you.
                                                              • Members should note that BCT (Pro) Asian lncome Retirement Fund does not provide any guarantee on capital or investment return or dividend yield. The fund may pay dividends out of net distributable income and/or capital, which will result in an immediate decrease or adjustment in the net asset value per unit of the fund. The payment of dividends (if any) will involve an investment time-lag and is subject to out-of-market risk. There is no assurance on the dividend distribution frequency and the dividend amount/yield may fluctuate.
                                                              • Investments in the Fund (including dividends distributed) are subject to the same vesting, preservation and withdrawal requirements applicable to mandatory and voluntary contributions (as applicable).
                                                              • Your investment decision should not be based on this document alone. Please read the MPF Scheme Brochure for BCT (MPF) Pro Choice for further details including the risk factors.
                                                              • Investment involves risks. Past performance is not indicative of future performance. The price of constituent funds may fall as well as rise.

                                                               

                                                              We are heading to an era of high inflation again, which affects the buying power of money and erodes the value of retirement savings. Hong Kong people are famous for their longevity, and we will be experiencing a period of inflation once more. In that sense, inflation is the enemy of retirement! BCT launches the first MPF fund which aims to provide "protection against inflation" as well as "dividend income" -Asian Income Retirement Fund. No matter which stage of life you are in, BCT is here to shape the future with you.
