Our take

Structural notes on how this fund behaves. Read our guide on the 6 warning signs.

Thematic
Warning

These usually launch after the gains are gone

A theme gets packaged into a fund after it has already run. Over the past 15 years, fewer than one in 10 thematic funds beat a broad global index, and more than three-quarters closed down entirely. The pitch always sounds good. The returns rarely follow.
