Le rendement peut devenir négatif en raison de l'évolution négative des prix. Il existe un risque lié à l'investissement dans des fonds en raison des mouvements du marché, de l'évolution des devises, des niveaux de taux d'intérêt, des conditions économiques, sectorielles et spécifiques aux entreprises. Les fonds sont libellés en NOK. Les rendements peuvent augmenter ou diminuer en raison des fluctuations monétaires.
