Risks
Changes in property value and interest rate trends and their impact on the development of rental income, but also other market-specific and legal factors, influence the value of the fund's shares. An investment in this fund is therefore suitable for investors with a medium to long-term investment horizon and a corresponding willingness and ability to take risks. Every plant is subject to market fluctuations. Each fund has specific risks that can increase significantly under unusual market conditions.
