This fund provides access to a global share portfolio that offers thematic exposure to disruptive innovation across a number of sectors and geographies.
Disruptive innovation is caused by the introduction of new technologically enabled products or services that permanently change an industry or economic sector by providing greater simplicity, accuracy, customisation and accessibility while driving down costs.
Note: As the Amova ARK Disruptive Innovation Fund has an extremely high level of volatility, investors should be comfortable accepting periodic investment losses in order to try and achieve higher returns over longer timeframes. The recommended timeframe for investment in this fund is a minimum of ten years.
