All investments carry a risk of capital loss. A flexible cash fund is not a guaranteed investment, and a total loss of your investment is possible at any time. The risk of loss of principal is borne entirely by the investor. Investing in a flexible cash fund differs from an investment in deposits. The capital invested may fluctuate. The flexible cash fund does not rely on external support to guarantee its liquidity or to stabilize its net asset value per share.
