  • Shariah-compliant unit trusts are investment products and some may involve derivatives. The value of investments, unit prices and income distribution may go down or up, and the investor may not get back the original sum invested. Past performance of a fund should not be taken as indicative of its future performance. In a worst case scenario, the value of fund may worth substantially less than the original amount you have invested (and in an extreme case could be worth nothing).
  • The investment returns, payment of initial capital and distribution payouts are not guaranteed. Investors and potential investors must not solely rely on the content in this website to make investment decisions. Investors are advised to read carefully and understand the contents of prospectus and consider the general risk factors associated with investing in Shariah-compliant unit trusts in addition to other specific risks uniquely associated with the fund. All the relevant risk factors are set out in the relevant prospectus for the fund.
  • You are advised to carefully consider your own circumstances, including not only the product risk level of your selected investment, but also your financial situation, investment knowledge and/or experience, investment objective and preferred investment period. Switching of fixed deposits into any unit trust beyond your risk appetite is highly discouraged.
  • When you subscribe to any Shariah-compliant unit trust with us, the investment amount will be deducted directly from your settlement account(s) with us. Investors and potential investors are reminded not to provide cash for investment purposes to any HSBC Amanah employees. Pre-signed forms are also strictly prohibited.
  • Before you make any investment decision, you may wish to engage or speak to your Relationship Manager to understand more about any investment product including the applicable charges, investment objective and return expectation. For first-time investors, you should also be made aware of your cooling-off rights for eligible funds.
  • Shariah-compliant unit trusts are NOT protected by Perbadanan Insurans Deposit Malaysia ("PIDM").

What are Shariah-compliant unit trusts?

Shariah-compliant unit trusts pool the resources of investors into one large fund, which can be spread over a number of different investments and over a wide geographical area. These unit trusts are managed by professional fund managers and have varying levels of risk and return.

Shariah-compliant unit trusts will exclude investments in companies involved in non-Shariah compliant activities, such as products or services related to conventional banking, insurance and financial services, gambling, alcoholic beverages and non-halal food products.

A Shariah-compliant unit trust fund must follow a variety of rules, including investing only in Shariah-compliant companies, appointing a Shariah board, carrying out an annual Shariah audit and purifying certain types of income prohibited by Shariah law, such as interest, by donating them to charity.

Whether you are making your first investment, or adding an investment to your portfolio, at HSBC you can choose from a range of funds to match your attitude to risk and investment goals.
