1. Past performance (actual or simulated) is not a reliable indicator of future results. Periods greater than one year are annualised, dividends reinvested, index gross. The value of an investment in the Fund may fall as well as rise and investors may not get back the amount originally invested. Changes in rates of exchange between currencies may cause the value of investments to decrease or increase. 2. All performance statistics shown over rolling 3 years (or 1 year where 3 years of data is not yet available). Sharpe ratio assumes the US 3-month T-Bill risk free rate. 3. Duration and Yield statistics include all positions with a verified duration and yield figure, subject to the exclusion of defaulted positions. Bond securities with less than 1 year to maturity show yield to maturity on a non-annualised basis. 4. Theme values have been rebased to 100% based on the theme type of the underlying fund instruments. 5. Currency and country exposures may be reduced by active FX hedging (if applicable). 6. Credit ratings are based only on issuers with a rating. Figures provided are based on the higher rating of S&P, Moody's or Fitch. Percentages grossed to 100%, where applicable. 7. Top 10 holdings do not include derivatives apart from total return swaps and p-notes. 8. For investments in Ashmore managed funds (where applicable), allocation and holdings information is shown on a "look through" basis, whereas attribution information is not shown on a look through basis. 9. Hedged benchmarks are used where applicable. 10. OCF's are as at 30.06.2022. Sources are Ashmore, data provider or administrator where appropriate.

Risk Warning: Emerging Markets (EM) carry risks as well as rewards. The fund invests in EM, which may be more volatile than more mature markets. The value of your investment could go down as well as up. In extreme circumstances, this could result in a total loss of your investment. EM may suffer from liquidity problems; changes in rates of exchange between currencies may cause the value of your investment to decrease or increase; operational risks of investing are higher than in more developed markets. Neither past experience nor the current situation are necessarily accurate guides to the future. For a full description of these and further risks, you should refer to the latest full prospectus.
