    Just found this in the PDS:

    "In normal circumstances the Fund will be unhedged to
    Australian dollars. Foreign exchange risk is significant
    as the China A shares are denominated in renminbi,
    a small amount of cash in US dollars will be held for
    InvestCo expenses and there is the possibility that some
    Working Capital will be invested in futures contracts
    via the Singapore Futures Exchange. For an Australian
    investor, this means that if the Australian dollar
    appreciates in value relative to the foreign currencies
    in which the assets of the Fund are denominated, the
    investment performance of the Fund will suffer.
    Conversely, if the Australian dollar depreciates relative
    to those foreign currencies, the performance of the Fund
    will benefit".

    So it's unhedged and currency changes can have a big effect. Does anyone know just how large this can be and has it previously done much to the portfolio?? For eg we had the run up to amost parity and back down again only last year. How did this effect the sp?

    Thanks
