Schroders Capital Semi-Liquid Energy Transition

Commitment funding risk - The fund will have an investor commitment/draw-down funding model which exposes the investment vehicle to the credit risk of its investors. If an investor fails to comply with a drawdown notice, the investment vehicle may be unable to pay its obligations when due.

Higher volatility risk - The price of this fund may be more volatile as it may take higher risks in search of higher rewards, meaning the price may go up and down to a greater extent.

Infrastructure asset risk - The fund invests in illiquid assets which are harder to sell; the investment strategy is therefore specifically designed for buy and hold. Investments have no guaranteed valuation and are subject to capital loss. Investment risk is concentrated on specific sectors, countries, currencies, or companies, with resulting concentration risk.

Infrastructure risk - The fund may invest in sectors that are subject to significant regulation and so changes to such regulation or government policy could have a negative impact on financial performance. Where revenues or cash flows earned or generated by an infrastructure asset depend substantially on the level of use, changes in demand could adversely impact such revenues and cash flows, which could result in losses to the fund.

Maintenance & renewal risk - During the lifetime of an investment, components of certain infrastructure assets are likely to need to be replaced or undergo a major refurbishment. Timing and costs of such replacements or refurbishments are forecast, modelled and provided for but various factors such as shorter than anticipated asset lifespans or underestimated costs and/or inflation higher than forecast, may result in life-cycle costs being higher than projected.

Market risk - The value of investments can go up and down and an investor may not get back the amount initially invested.

Private market valuations - In times of stress it may be difficult to find appropriate prices for private asset investments and they may be valued on the basis of proxies or estimates.  This may lead to significant changes in the valuation of the fund, or the inability to determine a reliable net asset value which may lead to a suspension of the fund.

Property development risk - The fund may invest in property development which may be subject to risks including, risks relating to planning and other regulatory approvals, the cost and timely completion of construction, general market and letting risk, and the availability of both construction and permanent financing on favourable terms.

Tax risk - The fund and its returns may rely on certain available tax efficiencies at the inception of the Fund which may be subject to changes in tax treatment or interpretations. Any change in the actual or perceived tax status or exposure of the Fund or its investments as well as in tax legislation, practice or in accounting standards could adversely affect the anticipated level of taxation.

Currency risk -  If the fund’s investments are denominated in currencies different to the fund’s base currency, the fund may lose value as a result of movements in foreign exchange rates, otherwise known as currency rates. If the investor holds a share class in a different currency to the base currency of the fund, investors may be exposed to losses as a result of movements in currency rates.

Derivatives risk - Derivatives, which are financial instruments deriving their value from an underlying asset, may be used to manage the portfolio efficiently. A derivative may not perform as expected, may create losses greater than the cost of the derivative and may result in losses to the fund.

Interest rate risk - The fund may lose value as a direct result of interest rate changes.

Liquidity risk - The fund invests in illiquid instruments, which are harder to sell. Illiquidity increases the risks that the fund will be unable to sell its holdings in a timely manner in order to meet its financial obligations at a given point in time. It may also mean that there could be delays in investing committed capital into the asset class.

Operational risk - Operational processes, including those related to the safekeeping of assets, may fail. This may result in losses to the fund.

Performance risk - Investment objectives express an intended result but there is no guarantee that such a result will be achieved. Depending on market conditions and the macroeconomic environment, investment objectives may become more difficult to achieve.

Sustainability risk - The fund has the objective of sustainable investment. This means it may have limited exposure to some companies, industries or sectors and may forego certain investment opportunities, or dispose of certain holdings, that do not align with its sustainability criteria chosen by the investment manager. The fund may invest in companies that do not reflect the beliefs and values of any particular investor.
