FUND RISKSInvestment in company shares: The fund invests in shares of companies, and the value of these shares can be negatively affected by changes in the company, its industry or the economy in which it operates. Emerging markets investment: The fund may invest in the markets of countries which are smaller, less developed and regulated, and more volatile than the markets of more developed countries. Investment in smaller company shares: The fund buys shares in smaller companies. It may be diffi cult to sell these shares, in which case the fund may not be able to minimise a loss on such shares. Concentrated fund: The fund invests in fewer companies than other funds which invest in shares usually do. This means that the fund does not spread its risk as widely as other funds and will therefore be affected more if an individual company has signifi cant losses. Fund currency: Changes in exchange rates between the currencies of investments held by the fund and the fund’s base currency may negatively affect the value of an investment and any income received from it. Fund operations: The fund is subject to the risk of loss resulting from inadequate or failed internal processes, people or systems or those of third parties such as those responsible for the custody of its assets. Charges from capital: The fund’s fees and expenses may be taken from its capital (rather than income). This will result in an increase in income available for distribution to investors. However, this will forego some of the capital that the share class has available for future investment and potential growth.IMPORTANT INFORMATION This is a sub-fund (“fund”) of Legg Mason Funds ICVC (“the Company”), an umbrella investment company with variable capital, authorised in the UK by the Financial Conduct Authority as an undertaking for collective investment in transferable securities (“UCITS”).
