The HSBC Gilt & Fixed Interest Fund is a sub-fund of the HSBC Investment Funds range. The Authorised Corporate Director and Investment Manager is HSBC Global Asset Management (UK) Limited. The value of investments and any income from them can go down as well as up. There are risks involved with this type of investment. Please refer to the HSBC Investment Funds Simplified Prospectus for detailed risk information. If the yield on a corporate bond, gilt or other fixed interest security is fixed and interest rates go up, the relative yield will be reduced as may its capital value. In addition investing in corporate bonds carries the risk of the issuer becoming insolvent. In this case the bondholder would rank as an unsecured creditor in the liquidation and may not recover all or any of the debt due. The fund may also invest in derivatives which carry additional risks.
