Unit Trusts are generally medium to long term investments. Apart from the Money Market Funds, where the unit price is maintained constant at ZWL100 cents, the value of units may
go down as well as up. Investment performance will depend on the growth in the underlying assets of the Fund, whose values may move up or down due to various factors including
the financial market environment and exchange rate movements. Past performance cannot be relied on as an indication of future performance. OMIG does not provide any
guarantees regarding the capital invested in the Fund or the returns of the Fund. Significant withdrawals from the Fund may place the Fund under liquidity pressure, however we are
committed to process all withdrawal instructions within the generally accepted 14 working days period. A schedule of fees and charges is available on request from the
management company. Withholding tax on the sale of units is applicable. You can easily sell your units at the ruling price of the day (calculated at 16h00 on a forward pricing
basis). All accounts in our books are subject to OMIG’s terms and conditions which can be obtained during working hours at our offices or on our website.
