3. IntroductionThe main objectives of Nordea 1, SICAV (the “Company”) are• to provide a range of Sub-funds combined with active and

professional management, • to diversify investment risks and • to satisfy Investors seeking income, capital conservation and

longer-term capital growth.

The Company was originally incorporated in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg on 31 August 1989 under the name of Frontrunner I, SICAV. The Company changed its name into Nordea 1, SICAV on 1 February 2001. The Company is organised as a variable capital company, Société d’Investissement à Capital Variable (SICAV) with multiple compartments under the law of 10 August 1915 relating to commercial companies as amended and part I of the law of 17 December 2010 on undertakings for collective investment as amended (“the Law”). The Company is established for an indefinite period from the date of incorporation.

The Registered Office of the Company is at 562, rue de Neudorf, L-2220 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.

The Statutes of the Company were originally published in the Mémorial, Recueil des Sociétés et Associations (the “Mémorial”), dated 16 October 1989, and amended several times. The last amendments to the Statutes were adopted on 09 September 2005 and published in the Mémorial on 05 October 2005. The last version of the Statutes, together with the mandatory legal notice, have been deposited with the Chancery of the District Court of Luxembourg where they are available for inspection and where copies thereof can be obtained.

The financial year of the Company commences on 1 January and ends on 31 December of each year.

Shareholders’ meetings shall be held annually in Luxembourg at the Company’s Registered Office or at such other place as specified in the notice of meeting. The Annual General Meeting shall be held on 15 March each year, at 11:00 CET. If such a day is not a Business Day, the Annual General Meeting shall be held on the first following Business Day thereafter. Other meetings of Shareholders may be held at such place and time as may be specified in the respective notices of meetings. Registered Shareholders will receive notices of meetings by ordinary mail. Notices will further be published as described in the chapter “Notices and information to Shareholders”.

Resolutions concerning the interests of the Shareholders of the Company shall be passed at a general meeting and resolutions concerning the particular rights of the Shareholders of one specific Sub-fund shall in addition be passed by that Sub-fund’s general meeting.

In accordance with the Statutes of the Company, the Board of Directors is empowered to • restrict the acquisition of Shares in the Company by any

physical person or legal entity if this is in the interest of the Company;

• restrict the holding of Shares in the Company by any physical person or legal entity if this is necessary to ensure that the laws and regulations of a country and/or official regulations are not violated or that shareholding does not lead to a situation in which the Company would incur tax liabilities or other financial disadvantages, which it would otherwise not have incurred or would not incur.

The Board of Directors has decided that the Shares shall not be offered or sold to US Persons. For this purpose, the term “US Person” shall include: • a citizen of the United States of America irrespective of

his place of residence or a resident of the United States of America irrespective of his citizenship;

• a partnership organised or existing in laws of any state, territory or possession of the United States of America;

• a corporation organised under the laws of the United States of America or of any state, territory or possession thereof or

• any estate or trust which are subject to United States tax regulations.

As the above-mentioned definition of “US Person” differs from Regulation S of the US Securities Act of 1933, the Board of Directors of the Company, notwithstanding the fact that such person or entity may come within any of the categories referred to above, has granted authority to Nordea Investment Funds S.A. to determine, on a case by case basis, whether ownership of Shares or solicitation for ownership of Shares shall or shall not violate any securities law of the United States of America or any state or other jurisdiction thereof.

For further information on restricted or prohibited Share ownership please consult the Company or the Management Company.

The Board of Directors may decide, at any time, to establish new Sub-funds for investment in securities. On the establishment of such additional Sub-funds, the present Prospectus shall be amended and a relevant KII shall be produced.

Furthermore, in the case of Sub-funds created which are not yet opened for subscription, the Board of Directors is empowered to determine at any time the initial period of subscription and the initial subscription price; at the opening of such a Sub-fund, the Prospectus shall be amended and a KII shall be produced to provide the Investors with the necessary information.

The Shares of the Sub-funds of the Company may be listed on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.

The Shares of the Sub-funds of the Company may be distributed in Italy, in accordance with Italian laws and customs, through savings plans via a Paying Agent in Italy (as per chapter “Representatives & Paying Agents outside Luxembourg”).

Within this minimum two thirds of total assets (after deduction of cash), the Sub-fund will aim to invest in companies that are expected to generate a significant proportion of their earnings from consumers in Emerging Markets, e.g. by establishing themselves as the leading brands. Additionally the Sub-fund will focus the investment around companies in developed markets that sell products and services targeted towards the marginal spending of the emerging consumer, benefiting from the expected increases in disposable income levels.

This Sub-fund may invest up to one-third of its total assets in bonds, warrants on bonds and other debt instruments denominated in various currencies and issued by world wide borrowers as well as in equities, other equities and equity rights, dividend-right certificates, warrants on equities and equity rights which do not meet the above-mentioned restriction.

Nordea 1 – Euro Diversified Corporate Bond Fund

Investment objectiveThis Sub-fund aims to preserve the Shareholder’s capital and to provide an adequate risk-adjusted rate of return on the investment. The investment manager aims to invest the assets of the Sub-fund, within the limitations stated below, into Euro-denominated corporate bonds directly or indirectly through the use of derivatives, and into other types of Euro-denominated transferable securities and money market instruments in anticipation of positive and negative market movements.

This sub-fund targets a limited exposure to any specific issuer or sector relative to its reference index, which is further used as a tool for performance comparison purposes.

Eligible assets, investment policy and risk profileThis Sub-fund shall invest a minimum of two-thirds of its total assets (after deduction of cash) in Euro-denominated corporate bonds, asset-backed securities and covered bonds with fixed coupon or fixed and contingent coupon or variable coupon. A maximum of 20 percent of the net assets of this Sub-fund may be invested in asset-backed securities.

At the time of the investment, the securities must have a long-term rating between AAA and BBB- or equivalent by any available rating agency (S&P, Moody’s and Fitch).

In addition to the above-mentioned limitations, this Sub-fund may invest up to one-third of its total assets in bonds, including government bonds, warrants on bonds and other debt instruments such as money market instruments denominated in various currencies and issued by worldwide borrowers.

This sub-fund can hold investments in equities, other equity shares such as co-operative shares and participation certificates (equities and equity rights), dividend-right certificates, warrants on equities and equity rights, provided that such holdings are a result of debt conversion or any form of restructuring. This fund is not allowed actively to buy equity shares in its normal cause of business. However,(i) a maximum of 10 percent of the total assets of this Sub-Fund

may be invested in convertible bonds and other equity-linked debt securities;

(ii) a maximum of 10 percent of the total assets of this Sub-Fund may be invested in equity securities.

The total exposure to markets deriving from these derivatives contracts may not exceed 100% of the Net Asset Value of the Sub-fund.

The Sub-fund may as well enter into derivative contracts for the purpose of reducing the duration of its portfolio or for the purpose of bringing the portfolio’s duration closer to that of the Sub-fund’s reference index. Such derivative contracts will then typically include bond futures or bond index futures, where the underlying assets may not be limited to corporate bonds.

The above rating criteria also apply for the underlying securities of derivatives. On derivative contracts where the underlying assets consist of multiple securities the rating criteria apply to the average rating of securities.

This Sub-fund may accessorily hold liquid assets in all currencies in which investments are effected, as well as in the currency of its respective Class(es) and/or Sub-class(es).

The investments made in this Sub-Fund may be subject to fluctuations and no guarantee can be given that the value of the Shares will not fall below the value at the time of their acquisition.

public expenditure and indebtedness, inflation- Changes in the legal environment- Change in investor confidence in investment type (e.g. bonds

Swinging Single Pricing MethodologyThe Board of Directors may determine that a swinging single pricing methodology will be applied in the calculation of the daily Net Asset Value of the relevant Sub-fund, in order to compensate for the costs generated by the purchase or sale of the Sub-fund’s assets caused by subscriptions and redemptions. These costs reflect both the estimated fiscal charges and dealing costs that may be incurred by the Sub-fund and the estimated bid/offer spread of the assets in which the Sub-fund invests. Further information can be found in the chapter “Net Asset Value” of the Prospectus.

Total Expense Ratio (TER)This ratio expresses the sum of all costs and commissions charged on an ongoing basis to the Sub-fund’s assets taken retrospectively as a percentage of the Sub-fund’s average assets. The latest calculated TER-rate can be found in the Company’s latest financial report.

Nordea 1 – Euro Money Market Fund

Investment objectiveThis Sub-fund aims to preserve the Shareholder’s capital and to provide an adequate risk-adjusted rate of return on the investment. The investment manager aims to invest the assets of the Sub-fund, within the limitations stated below, predominantly into money market instruments, euro-denominated floating rate notes (FRN) and other fixed income debt instruments. This Sub-fund complies with the definition of “Money Market Fund” as per guidelines dated 19th May 2010 issued by the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) and establishing “a common definition of European money market funds”.

Eligible assets, investment policy and risk profileThis Sub-fund shall invest in one or more of the following instruments:• money market instruments, • floating rate notes, • structured financial instruments,• fixed income debt instruments.

The Sub-fund shall comply with the following requirements:

(i) The Sub-fund’s investments may be denominated in EUR or in another currency. Investments in another currency than EUR shall be hedged back to EUR.

(ii) The Weighted Average Life (“WAL”) of the Sub-fund’s investments portfolio shall not exceed 12 months.

(iii) The Weighted Average Maturity (“WAM”) of the Sub-fund’s investments portfolio shall not exceed 6 months.

(iv) The Sub-fund may invest in securities with a residual maturity until legal redemption date of less than or equal to 2 years, provided that the time remaining until the next interest rate reset date is less than or equal to 397 days.

(v) The Sub-fund may only invest in high quality money market and debt instruments: Only instruments that have been awarded one of the two highest available short-term credit ratings by each recognized credit rating agency that has rated the instrument, or, if the instrument is not rated, it is of an equivalent quality as determined by the internal rating process of the Management Company or the Investment Sub-Manager.

The Sub-fund may use financial derivative instruments such as, but not limited to, interest rate swaps and forward rate agreements to manage its money market strategy within the above mentioned restrictions. The Sub-fund may as well enter into derivative contracts for the purpose of hedging the Sub-fund’s assets denominated in another currency than EUR back to EUR.

This Sub-fund may accessorily hold liquid assets in all currencies in which investments are effected, as well as in the currency of its respective Class(es) and/or Sub-class(es).

Glossary of terms:

The Weighted Average Maturity (WAM) is a measure of the length of time to maturity of all of the underlying securities in the Sub-fund weighted to reflect the relative holdings in each instrument, assuming that the maturity of a floating rate instrument is the time remaining until the next interest rate reset, rather than the time remaining before the principal value of the security must be repaid.

The Weighted Average Life (WAL) is the weighted average of the remaining life (maturity) of each security held in the Sub-fund, meaning the average time until the principal is repaid in full (disregarding interest and not discounting). Contrary to what is done in the calculation of the WAM, the calculation of the WAL for floating rate securities and structured financial instruments does not permit the use of interest rate reset dates and instead only uses a security’s stated (legal) final maturity.

The investments made in this Sub-Fund may be subject to fluctuations and no guarantee can be given that the value of the Shares will not fall below the value at the time of their acquisition.

The factors that may trigger such fluctuations or can influence their scale include but are not limited to:- Changes in interest rates- Changes in exchange rates- Changes affecting economic factors such as employment,

public expenditure and indebtedness, inflation- Changes in the legal environment- Change in investor confidence in investment type (e.g. bonds

versus equities or cash).

By diversifying investments, the investment manager endeavours to partially mitigate the negative impact of such risks on the value of the individual Sub-Funds.

Although the Board of Directors makes every effort to achieve the investment objectives of the Company and its Sub-funds, no guarantee can be given as to whether the investment objectives will be achieved.

Investors must read carefully the special risk considerations as described in the chapter “Special Risk Considerations” before investing in the Sub-fund.

The investor should have a minimum investment horizon of 6 to 12 months and be able to accept moderate short-term losses.

Investment objectiveThis Sub-fund aims to preserve the Shareholder’s capital and to provide a return exceeding the average return of the Euro corporate bond market. The investment manager actively uses derivatives in order to enhance returns and manage risks in the Sub-fund. This Sub-fund is further using its reference index as a tool for performance comparison purposes.

Eligible assets, investment policy and risk profileThis Sub-fund shall invest a minimum of two-thirds of its total assets (after deduction of cash) in corporate bonds, asset-backed securities and covered bonds with fixed coupon or fixed and contingent coupon or variable coupon. The Sub-fund shall focus on corporate bonds and debt instruments issued by companies which are domiciled or exercise the predominant part of their economic activity in Europe.

A maximum of 20 percent of the net assets of this Sub-fund may be invested in asset-backed securities.

At the time of the investment, the securities must have a long-term rating between AAA and BBB- or equivalent by any available rating agency (S&P, Moody’s and Fitch).

In addition to the above-mentioned limitations, this Sub-fund may invest up to one-third of its total assets in bonds, including government bonds, warrants on bonds and other debt instruments such as money market instruments denominated in various currencies and issued by worldwide borrowers.

This sub-fund can hold investments in equities, other equity shares such as co-operative shares and participation certificates (equities and equity rights), dividend-right certificates, warrants on equities and equity rights, provided that such holdings are a result of debt conversion or any form of restructuring. This fund is not allowed actively to buy equity shares in its normal cause of business. However,(i) a maximum of 10 percent of the total assets of this Sub-Fund

may be invested in convertible bonds and other equity-linked debt securities;

(ii) a maximum of 10 percent of the total assets of this Sub-Fund may be invested in equity securities.

In order to achieve its investment objective, the Sub-fund may enter into derivative contracts, whose underlying assets consist mainly of, but are not limited to, securities belonging to the corporate bond market. The derivatives used will include, but will not be limited to, credit default swaps and interest rate derivatives. The total exposure to markets deriving from these derivatives contracts may not exceed 100% of the Net Asset Value of the Sub-fund.

Such derivative contracts will then typically include bond futures or bond index futures, where the underlying assets may not be limited to corporate bonds.

The above rating criteria also apply for the underlying securities of derivatives. On derivative contracts where the underlying assets consist of multiple securities the rating criteria apply to the average rating of securities.

Although the Board of Directors makes every effort to achieve the investment objectives of the Company and its Sub-funds, no guarantee can be given as to whether the investment objectives will be achieved.

The Management Company is entitled to receive a performance-related fee (“Performance Fee”), calculated and accrued daily and paid yearly in arrears, in respect of each calendar year.

Nordea 1 – Global Portfolio Fund

Page 71: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

PB 7171

Performance Fee will be calculated as follows: at the end of the calendar year for which Performance Fee is to be calculated, the Performance Fee for each Share will be equal to a maximum of 20% of the appreciation of the Net Asset Value per Share (net of Performance Fee) as at the end of such calendar year exceeding the all time highest end-of-year Net Asset Value per Share (“High Watermark”), in excess of the MSCI World – Net Return Index (“Hurdle Rate”). The initial Subscription price represents the first High Watermark.

In case of net redemptions as observed on any Valuation Day, the pro rata of the year-to-date performance accrual that relates to such net redeemed shares will be considered as due to the Management Company regardless of the performance of the Sub-fund after such net redemption.

Entitlement to a Performance Fee arises only when the following two conditions are met:1) the Net Asset Value per Share has exceeded the Hurdle Rate

in the relevant calendar year; or in case of net redemption on any Valuation Day, if the Net Asset Value per Share has exceeded the Hurdle Rate on the period starting at the beginning of the calendar year and finishing on the Valuation Day where the redemption price is fixed; and

2) the Net Asset Value per Share exceeds the previous all time high year-end Net Asset Value per Share.

The Hurdle Rate applied is the same as this Sub-fund’s reference index.

Investors should be aware that a Performance Fee could be charged even though the Sub-fund’s Net Asset Value has dropped during the measuring period. For more detailed information on this performance fee calculation, please contact the Management Company.

Other fees and expenses charged to the Sub-fund:This Sub-fund pays a custodian fee of up to 0.1250% p.a. and an administration fee of up to 0.250% p.a., plus any VAT if applicable; in addition hereto the Sub-fund also pays the expenses as described in the chapter “Expenses borne by the Company”.

Investment objectiveThis Sub-fund aims to provide attractive absolute returns by benefiting from both rising and falling asset prices using a long-short strategy.

Eligible assets, investment policy and risk profileThis Sub-fund will generate gains from investing in a broadly diversified portfolio of derivatives strategies. Each strategy consists of a derivatives contract which can be bought (long) or sold (short). Thus, the strategies aim to generate returns both from rising as well as from falling prices of the underlying assets. The assets underlying the derivatives contracts comprise predominantly equity indices, interest rates or fixed income instruments (such as government bonds), currencies as well as other financial indices with respect to Article 44 of the Law and Article 9 of Commission Directive 2007/16/EC of 19 March 2007.

The derivatives contracts used will be exchange traded futures contracts where applicable (e.g. a futures contract on the S&P 500 index) or OTC contracts such as foreign exchange forward contracts. The total exposure to markets deriving from these derivative contracts may not exceed 100% of the Net Asset Value of the Sub-fund.

The Sub-fund may also invest in the units of other UCITS or undertakings for collective investment, deposits, fixed or floating rate instruments (including but not limited to commercialpaper), floating rate notes, certificates of deposit, debentures, asset backed securities and government or corporate bonds, cash and cash equivalents.

This Sub-fund may accessorily hold liquid assets in all currencies in which investments are effected as well as in the currency of its respective share Class(es) and/or Sub-class(es).

The investments made in this Sub-Fund may be subject to substantial fluctuations and no guarantee can be given that the value of the derivatives positions will not be negative.

The factors that may trigger such fluctuations or can influence their scale include but are not limited to:• Fluctuations in equity markets• Changes in interest rates• Changes in exchange rates• Changes in the volatility of the relevant assets• Changes in the correlation between the relevant assets

By diversifying investments, the investment manager endeavours to partially mitigate the negative impact of such risks on the value of the Sub-Fund.

Although the Board of Directors makes every effort to achieve the investment objectives of the Company and its Sub-funds, no guarantee can be given as to whether the investment objectives will be achieved.

Investors must read carefully the special risk considerations as described in the chapter “Special Risk Considerations” before investing in the Sub-fund.

Metzler Asset Management GmbH (“Metzler”), in its capacity as investment sub-manager for the Sub-fund is entitled to receive a performance-related fee (“Performance Fee”), calculated and accrued daily and paid yearly in arrears, in respect of each calendar year.

However, Metzler may elect to forego its right to the Performance Fee for any given calendar year. Metzler’s decision to forego the Performance Fee must be taken and communicated to the Management Company before the 1st January of the calendar year for which Performance Fee would otherwise be calculated. Once the decision to forego has been made, Metzler will have no entitlement to a Performance Fee for the calendar year in question.

If Metzler has not communicated its decision to forego Performance Fee, Performance Fee will be calculated as follows: at the end of the calendar year for which Performance Fee is to be calculated, the Performance Fee for each Share will be equal to maximum 20% of the appreciation of the Net Asset Value per Share (net of Performance Fee) as at the end of such calendar year exceeding the all time highest end of year Net Asset Value per Share (“High Watermark”), after deduction of Euribor1M (“Hurdle Rate”). The initial Subscription price represents the first High Watermark.

In case of net redemptions as observed on any Valuation Day, the pro rata of the year-to-date performance accrual that relates to such net redeemed shares will be considered as due to Metzler regardless of the performance of the Sub-fund after such net redemption.

Entitlement to a Performance Fee arises only when the following two conditions are met:1) the Net Asset Value per Share has exceeded the Hurdle Rate

in the relevant calendar year; or, in case of net redemption on any Valuation Day, if the Net Asset Value per Share has exceeded the Hurdle Rate on the period starting at the beginning of the calendar year and finishing on the Valuation Day where the redemption price is fixed; and

2) the Net Asset Value per Share exceeds the previous all time high year end Net Asset Value per Share.

The Hurdle Rate applied for non-hedged share classes is a variable EUR short term interest rate (Bloomberg code EUR001M Index). For hedged share classes, an equivalent variable short term interest rate expressed in the relevant currency will be applied for the respective currency.

Other fees and expenses charged to the Sub-fund:This Sub-fund pays a custodian fee of up to 0.1250% p.a. (with a minimum custodian fee of EUR 60,000 p.a. after six months from the launch of the Sub-fund) and an administration fee of up to 0.250% p.a. (with a minimum administration fee of EUR 90,000 p.a. after six months from the launch of the Sub-fund), plus any VAT if applicable; in addition hereto the Sub-fund also pays the expenses as described in the chapter “Expenses borne by the Company”.

Total Expense Ratio (TER)This ratio expresses the sum of all costs and commissions charged on an ongoing basis to the Sub-fund’s assets taken retrospectively as a percentage of the Sub-fund’s average assets. The latest calculated TER-rate can be found in the Company’s latest financial report.

Nordea 1 – Low Duration US High Yield Bond Fund

Investment objectiveThis Sub-fund aims to preserve the Shareholder’s capital and to achieve a long-term capital appreciation by investing predominantly in high yield debt instruments. This Sub-fund is further using its reference index as a tool for performance comparison purposes.

Eligible assets, investment policy and risk profileThis Sub-fund shall invest a minimum of two-thirds of its total assets (after deduction of cash) in fixed rate, fixed and contingent rate or variable rate high yield bonds (bonds with long-term rating equal or lower than BB+ or equivalent by any available rating agency), issued by companies which are domiciled or exercise the predominant part of their economic activity in the United States of America, or denominated in US Dollars.

Within the remaining one third of its total assets, the Sub-fund is entitled to invest in transferable debt securities including sovereign bonds, investment grade corporate bonds, non-US/ non-USD denominated high yield corporate bonds, convertible bonds, equity and equity related securities, mortgage and other asset- backed securities, bank loans and money market instruments. However the Sub-fund will respect the following limitations:

(i) a maximum of one third of the total assets of this Sub-Fund may be invested in variable, fixed and fixed and contingent rate bonds with any credit rating issued by companies or sovereigns worldwide

(ii) a maximum of 25 percent of the total assets of this Sub-Fund may be invested in convertible bonds and other equity-linked debt securities

(iii) a maximum of 10 percent of the total assets of this Sub-Fund may be invested in equities and equity related securities

(iv) a maximum of 10 percent of the total assets of this Sub-Fund may be invested in mortgage or other asset backed securities

(v) a maximum of 10 percent of the total assets of this Sub-Fund may be invested in bank loans issued by companies with a sub-investment grade credit rating

(vi) a maximum of one third of the total assets of this Sub-fund may be invested in money market instruments

Modified duration of this Sub-Fund fund must be between 0 and 2. The Average Effective Maturity of the investments of this Sub-Fund must be between 0 and 7 years. The measure of such Average Effective Maturity of Sub-funds’ investments is computed by weighting each bond’s maturity by its market value with respect to the portfolio and the likelihood of any of the bonds being called. In a pool of mortgages, this would also account for the likelihood of prepayments on the mortgages.

The Sub-Fund invests predominantly in USD denominated instruments/securities. Minimum 90% of the assets in the Sub-Fund must be hedged into- or denominated in the base currency of the Sub-Fund.

This Sub-fund may accessorily hold liquid assets in all currencies in which investments are effected, as well as in the currency of its respective Class(es) and/or Sub-class(es).

Within the above-mentioned risk profile and the Company’s general investment restrictions, this Sub-fund is exposed to interest, liquidity and credit risks via exposure to the High Yield Bond market.

In order to achieve its investment objective, the Sub-fund may enter into derivative contracts, whose underlying assets consist mainly of, but are not limited to, securities belonging to the foreign exchange, high yield and government bond market. The derivatives used will include, but will not be limited to, currency derivatives, credit default swaps and interest rate derivatives. The total exposure to markets deriving from these derivatives contracts may not exceed 100% of the Net Asset Value of the Sub-fund.

The Sub-fund is entitled to invest up to 100% of its net assets in Rule 144a Securities under the conditions that:

• the attached registration right provides for an exchange into equivalent debt securities or into equity shares within a period of one year after the acquisition of such Rule 144a Securities by the Sub-fund;

• such equivalent debt securities or such equity shares, obtained through exchange, are either admitted to official listing on a Regulated Market or are dealt in on an Other Regulated Market which operates regularly and is recognised and open to the public;

• such securities are negotiated before and after their exchange on a Regulated Market and/or on an Other Regulated Market;

• such securities respect Point 17 of "CESR's Guidelines concerning eligible assets for investment by UCITS", dated March 2007.

Investment in Rule 144a Securities, which would not comply with any of the above conditions, shall, together with the transferable securities eligible under section B(1) of the chapter “Investment Restrictions” of the Prospectus, not exceed 10% of the Sub-fund’s net asset value.

The investments made in this Sub-fund may be subject to fluctuations and no guarantee can be given that the value of the Shares will not fall below the value at the time of their acquisition.

The factors that may trigger such fluctuations or can influence their scale include but are not limited to:• Company specific changes• Changes in interest rates• Changes in exchange rates• Changes in liquidity preferences• Changes affecting economic factors such as employment,

public expenditure and indebtedness, inflation• Changes in the legal environment• Changes in investor preferences

By diversifying investments, the investment manager endeavours to partially mitigate the negative impact of such risks on the value of the individual Sub-Funds.

Although the Board of Directors makes every effort to achieve the investment objectives of the Company and its Sub-funds, no guarantee can be given as to whether the investment objectives will be achieved.

Investors must read carefully the special risk considerations as described in the chapter “Special Risk Considerations” before investing in the Sub-fund.

Nordea 1 – Multi-Asset Fund

Investment Objective This Sub-fund aims to obtain an attractive return taking positions in a broad range of assets by investing directly into securities or indirectly via the use of derivatives.

Eligible assets, investment policy and risk profile The Sub-fund will implement investment strategies taking long or short positions in a broad range of asset classes or sub-asset classes based on the portfolio manager’s convictions. Asset classes and sub-classes refer to a group of assets of common sectors, geographic areas or other criteria relevant for the construction of each investment strategy. The Sub-fund will not borrow securities or cash to create leverage. Any short exposure will only be achieved via the use of derivatives.

The most common instruments used will be:• transferable debt securities including corporate bonds,

government bonds, mortgage-backed securities***, asset-backed securities***, fixed income instruments issued by sovereign borrowers or their agencies as well as other fixed-income securities*;

• money market instruments, including commercial papers and certificates of deposits;

• equity (including commodity related equities) and equity related securities;

• open-ended undertakings for collective investments as well as exchange traded funds**;

• derivative instruments such as futures on indices, bond futures, currency forwards, contracts for difference, total return swaps, equity swaps, portfolio swaps, interest rates swaps, credit default swaps as well as derivatives on commodities and commodity indices, where the latter are selected in compliance with Article 9 of the Grand-Ducal decree of 8th February 2008.

* No rating criteria are established for the debt securities in which the Sub-fund may invest.

** The Sub-fund may use equity and fixed income based exchange traded funds. Direct investment in open-ended exchange traded funds (ETFs) and indirect investment in ETFs via contracts for difference (CFDs) are, combined together, subject to the limit restriction C (9) defined in the Investment Restrictions chapter of this prospectus.

*** a maximum of 20 percent of the net assets of this Sub-fund may be invested in a total combination of mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities.

The Sub-fund may not use any derivative instruments that would require at maturity date of those derivative contracts any physical delivery of commodities by the Sub-fund to its counterparty or from the counterparty to the Sub-fund.

Depending on the instruments used to implement the investment strategies, the Sub-fund could have variable level of cash. It is not to be excluded that, in the case that the large majority of long positions are achieved via the use of derivatives, the level of cash increases up to 100% of the Sub-fund’s net assets. The portfolio manager will allocate the cash across currencies worldwide in accordance with his convictions. Cash may as well be required to cover margin call and collateral requirements.

In order to obtain the Sub-fund’s targeted risk and return profiles, the gross exposure across all portfolio holdings and derivatives of the Sub-fund may be larger than the Sub-fund’s net asset value. The level of this gross exposure may vary considerably depending on the volatility: in periods of high volatility, the gross exposure may be lower than in periods of low volatility, in order for the investment to remain within the risk and return targets. Overall, the level of the gross exposure will be measured using the VaR methodology. The monthly VaR of the Sub-fund will not exceed 20% of the Sub-fund’s net asset value at any time. Such monthly VaR will be calculated daily for a holding period of 20 days and with a 99% confidence interval.

In the context of ethical screening, international norms and guidelines for environmental, social and governance issues are considered. Furthermore, consideration is given to try to exclude companies within the following sectors: weapons, alcohol, tobacco, gambling and pornography. The investments made in this Sub-fund may be subject to fluctuations. Such fluctuations may be amplified by the leverage implemented by the Sub-fund. No guarantee can be given that the value of the Shares will not fall below the value at the time of their acquisition.

The factors that may trigger such fluctuations or can influence their scale include but are not limited to:• Changes in interest rates• Changes in exchange rates• Changes affecting economic factors such as employment,

public expenditure and indebtedness, inflation• Changes in the legal environment• Change in investor confidence in investment type (e.g.

equities versus bonds or cash), markets, countries, industries and sectors.

By diversifying investments, the investment manager endeavours to partially mitigate the negative impact of such risks on the value of the individual Sub-funds.

Although the Board of Directors makes every effort to achieve the investment objectives of the Company and its Sub-funds, no guarantee can be given as to whether the investment objectives will be achieved.

Investors must read carefully the special risk considerations as described in the chapter “Special Risk Considerations” before investing in the Sub-fund. Special attention must be drawn to the risks associated with credit default transactions and transactions in options, futures, swaps and CFDs.

Base Currency The Base Currency of this Sub-fund is EUR.

Reference Index This Sub-fund has no reference index.

Profile of the typical InvestorThis Sub-fund is suitable for the Investor who is prepared to take the higher risks associated with investments in financial instruments in order to maximise the return. Thus, the Investor should have experience with volatile products and be able to accept significant temporary losses. A long-term investment horizon, at least 5 years, is required in order to ride out potentially adverse market trends.

The Management Company is entitled to receive a performance-related fee (“Performance Fee”), calculated and accrued daily and paid yearly in arrears, in respect of each calendar year.

Performance Fee will be calculated as follows: at the end of the calendar year for which Performance Fee is to be calculated, the Performance Fee for each Share will be equal to a maximum of 20% of the appreciation of the Net Asset Value per Share (net of Performance Fee) as at the end of such calendar year exceeding the all time highest end-of-year Net Asset Value per Share (“High Watermark”), after deduction of Euribor1M (“Hurdle Rate”). The initial Subscription price represents the first High Watermark.

In case of net redemptions as observed on any Valuation Day, the pro rata of the year-to-date performance accrual that relates to such net redeemed shares will be considered as due to the Management Company regardless of the performance of the Sub-fund after such net redemption.

Entitlement to a Performance Fee arises only when the following two conditions are met:1) the Net Asset Value per Share has exceeded the Hurdle Rate

in the relevant calendar year; or, in case of net redemption on any Valuation Day, if the Net Asset Value per Share has exceeded the Hurdle Rate on the period starting at the beginning of the calendar year and finishing on the Valuation Day where the redemption price is fixed; and

2) the Net Asset Value per Share exceeds the previous all time high year-end Net Asset Value per Share.

The Hurdle Rate applied is a variable EUR short term interest rate (Bloomberg code EUR001M Index or its equivalent in the Nordic countries).

Investors should be aware that a Performance Fee could be charged even though the Sub-fund’s Net Asset Value has dropped during the measuring period. For more detailed information on this performance fee calculation, please contact the Management Company.

Other fees and expenses charged to the Sub-fund:This Sub-fund pays a custodian fee of up to 0.1250% p.a. and an administration fee of up to 0.250% p.a., plus any VAT if applicable; in addition hereto the Sub-fund also pays the expenses as described in the chapter “Expenses borne by the Company”.

Total Expense Ratio (TER)This ratio expresses the sum of all costs and commissions charged on an ongoing basis to the Sub-fund’s assets taken retrospectively as a percentage of the Sub-fund’s average assets. The latest calculated TER-rate can be found in the Company’s latest financial report.

Investment Objective This Sub-fund aims to obtain an attractive return taking positions in a broad range of assets by investing directly into securities or indirectly via the use of derivatives.

Eligible assets, investment policy and risk profile The Sub-fund will implement a relatively higher return / higher risk investment strategy when compared to the Multi Asset fund in this prospectus, taking long or short positions in a broad range of asset classes or sub-asset classes based on the portfolio manager’s convictions. Asset classes and sub-classes refer to a group of assets of common sectors, geographic areas or other criteria relevant for the construction of each investment strategy. The Sub-fund will not borrow securities or cash to create leverage. Any short exposure will only be achieved via the use of derivatives.

The most common instruments used will be:• transferable debt securities including corporate bonds,

government bonds, mortgage-backed securities***, asset-backed securities***, fixed income instruments issued by sovereign borrowers or their agencies as well as other fixed-income securities*;

• money market instruments, including commercial papers and certificates of deposits;

• equity (including commodity related equities) and equity related securities;

• open-ended undertakings for collective investments as well as exchange traded funds**;

• derivative instruments such as futures on indices, bond futures, currency forwards, contracts for difference, total return swaps, equity swaps, portfolio swaps, interest rates swaps, credit default swaps as well as derivatives on commodities and commodity indices, where the latter are selected in compliance with Article 9 of the Grand-Ducal decree of 8th February 2008.

* No rating criteria are established for the debt securities in which the Sub-fund may invest.

** The Sub-fund may use equity and fixed income based exchange traded funds. Direct investment in open-ended exchange traded funds (ETFs) and indirect investment in ETFs via contracts for difference (CFDs) are, combined together, subject to the limit restriction C (9) defined in the Investment Restrictions chapter of this prospectus.

*** a maximum of 20 percent of the net assets of this Sub-fund may be invested in a total combination of mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities.

The Sub-fund may not use any derivative instruments that would require at maturity date of those derivative contracts any physical delivery of commodities by the Sub-fund to its counterparty or from the counterparty to the Sub-fund.

Depending on the instruments used to implement the investment strategies, the Sub-fund could have variable level of cash. It is not to be excluded that, in the case that the large majority of long positions are achieved via the use of derivatives, the level of cash increases up to 100% of the Sub-fund’s net assets. The portfolio manager will allocate the cash across currencies worldwide in accordance with his convictions. Cash may as well be required to cover margin call and collateral requirements.

In order to obtain the Sub-fund’s targeted risk and return profiles, the gross exposure across all portfolio holdings and derivatives of the Sub-fund may be larger than the Sub-fund’s net asset value. The level of this gross exposure may vary considerably depending on the volatility: in periods of high volatility, the gross exposure may be lower than in periods of low volatility, in order for the investment to remain within the risk and return targets. Overall, the level of the gross exposure will be measured using the VaR methodology. While the annual volatility of the Sub-fund shall vary under normal circumstances between 10% and 20% of the Sub-fund’s net assets, the monthly VaR of the Sub-fund will not exceed 20% of the Sub-fund’s net asset value at any time. Such monthly VaR will be calculated daily for a holding period of 20 days and with a 99% confidence interval.

In the context of ethical screening, international norms and guidelines for environmental, social and governance issues are considered. Furthermore, consideration is given to try to exclude companies within the following sectors: weapons, alcohol, tobacco, gambling and pornography. The investments made in this Sub-fund may be subject to fluctuations. Such fluctuations may be amplified by the leverage implemented by the Sub-fund which can be high at times, especially during periods of low volatility, in order to reach its return target. The leverage will however remain so as for the VaR to be within the limits as required from UCIT III compliancy. No guarantee can be given that the value of the Shares will not fall below the value at the time of their acquisition.

The factors that may trigger such fluctuations or can influence their scale include but are not limited to:• Changes in interest rates• Changes in exchange rates• Changes affecting economic factors such as employment,

public expenditure and indebtedness, inflation• Changes in the legal environment• Change in investor confidence in investment type (e.g.

equities versus bonds or cash), markets, countries, industries and sectors.

By diversifying investments, the investment manager endeavours to partially mitigate the negative impact of such risks on the value of the individual Sub-funds.

Although the Board of Directors makes every effort to achieve the investment objectives of the Company and its Sub-funds, no guarantee can be given as to whether the investment objectives will be achieved.

Investors must read carefully the special risk considerations as described in the chapter “Special Risk Considerations” before investing in the Sub-fund. Special attention must be drawn to the risks associated with credit default transactions and transactions in options, futures, swaps and CFDs.

Base Currency The Base Currency of this Sub-fund is EUR.

Reference Index This Sub-fund has no reference index.

Profile of the typical InvestorThis Sub-fund is suitable for the Investor who is prepared to take the higher risks associated with investments in financial instruments in order to maximise the return. The Sub-fund follows an investment policy aiming at a relatively high return in turn coupled with higher volatility. Thus, the Investor should have experience with volatile products and be able to accept significant temporary losses. A long-term investment horizon, at least 5 years, is required in order to ride out potentially adverse market trends.

The Management Company is entitled to receive a performance-related fee (“Performance Fee”), calculated and accrued daily and paid yearly in arrears, in respect of each calendar year.

Performance Fee will be calculated as follows: at the end of the calendar year for which Performance Fee is to be calculated, the Performance Fee for each Share will be equal to a maximum of 20% of the appreciation of the Net Asset Value per Share (net of Performance Fee) as at the end of such calendar year exceeding the all time highest end-of-year Net Asset Value per Share (“High Watermark”), after deduction of Euribor1M (“Hurdle Rate”).

In case of net redemptions as observed on any Valuation Day, the pro rata of the year-to-date performance accrual that relates to such net redeemed shares will be considered as due to the Management Company regardless of the performance of the Sub-fund after such net redemption.

Entitlement to a Performance Fee arises only when the following two conditions are met:1) the Net Asset Value per Share has exceeded the Hurdle Rate

in the relevant calendar year; or, in case of net redemption on any Valuation Day, if the Net Asset Value per Share has exceeded the Hurdle Rate on the period starting at the beginning of the calendar year and finishing on the Valuation Day where the redemption price is fixed; and

2) the Net Asset Value per Share exceeds the previous all time high year-end Net Asset Value per Share.

The Hurdle Rate applied is a variable EUR short term interest rate (Bloomberg code EUR001M Index or its equivalent in the Nordic countries).

Investors should be aware that a Performance Fee could be charged even though the Sub-fund’s Net Asset Value has dropped during the measuring period. For more detailed information on this performance fee calculation, please contact the Management Company.

All Shares of the Company are issued and fully paid-up and have no par value.

Each Share carries one vote, irrespective of its Net Asset Value and of the Sub-fund / Class and/or Sub-class to which it relates.

Shares are only available as Registered Book Shares in non-certificated form. Shares issued will be evidenced by a transaction confirmation. Shares may also be held and transferred through accounts maintained with clearing systems.

Registered Book shares are issued as fractions of Shares with 3 decimal places (rounding up or down of the last decimal). Fractions of Shares will have no voting rights but will participate in the distribution of dividends, if any, and in the liquidation distribution.

If the capital of the Company falls below two-thirds of the legal minimum, the Board of Directors must submit the question of the dissolution of the Company to a general meeting of Shareholders. The meeting does not require a quorum, and decisions are taken by simple majority. If the capital falls below one quarter of the legal minimum, a decision regarding the dissolution of the Company may be passed by Shareholders present or represented holding one quarter of the Shares at the meeting. The meeting must be convened not later than 40 days from the day on which it appears that the capital has fallen below two-thirds or one-quarter of the minimum capital, as the case may be.

Share Class definitionThe Board of Directors may decide to issue Shares in different classes (a “Class”). Such Classes may be differentiated by specific sales and redemption charge structure, fee structure, distribution policy, reference currency, category of Investors, marketing country or other specificity which shall be described in further details, when issued.

It should however be noted that hedging strategies employed by the Company will not completely eliminate the exposure of the hedged share classes to movements in other currencies.

The Board of Directors of the Company emphasises that• all Investors / Shareholders are bound to place their

subscription / redemption or conversion order(s) before the applicable cut-off time for transactions in the Company’s Shares,

• when doing so, orders are being placed for execution on the basis of still unknown prices,

• the repeated purchase and sale of Shares designed to take advantage of pricing inefficiencies in the Sub-funds, also known as “market timing”, may disrupt portfolio investment strategies and increase the Sub-funds’ expenses and adversely affect the interests of the Sub-funds’ long term Shareholders. The Sub-funds are not intended for market timing and excessive short term trading,

• to prevent such practice, the Company and its duly appointed agents reserve the right, in case of reasonable doubt and whenever an investment is suspected to be related to market timing, to suspend, revoke or cancel any subscription or conversion order placed by Shareholders who have been identified as frequently trading in and out of a particular Sub-fund.

Subscription for SharesThe Board of Directors shall be authorised, without limitation and at any time, to issue additional Shares for all Sub-funds without granting existing Shareholders a preferential right to subscribe for the Shares.

The initial and subsequent Subscription amounts in a single Sub-fund / Class / Sub-class are set out in the relevant Sub-fund’s specifications.

Initial Subscription for Shares must be made by Investors by forwarding to the Registered Office, the Custodian or a Paying Agent a duly completed subscription form.

Customers of the Custodian do not need to submit a subscription form.

Subsequent Subscription for Shares may be made either • on the subscription form or • by letter or facsimile addressed to the Registered Office, the

Custodian or a Paying Agent or• by transfer of an amount (not less than the minimum

subscription amount as specified further below) to the Company’s account with the Custodian and clearly indicating the Investor identification details (customer number and name) and the name of Sub-fund, Class and/or Sub-class applied for. Such subscription requests are deemed to be final and conclusive for the Company and are executed at the entire risk of the applicant. The Company does not accept third party payments.

If a Subscription is received by the Registered Office, the Custodian or a distributor mentioned in the chapter “Distribution Channels” of this Prospectus before or at 15:30 CET on a Business Day, the Subscription will be processed using the Net Asset Value per Share calculated on that day after 15:30 CET. If a Subscription is received later than 15:30 CET on a Business Day, the Subscription will be processed on the first following Business Day thereafter.

A Subscription Fee of up to 5% of the Net Investment Amount may be charged to Investors upon Subscription for Shares. Such Subscription Fee will be paid to the Principal Distributor or to the respective distributor or sales agent.

Example showing the Net Asset Value per Share and the payment amount:

Net Assets EUR 50,000,000Number of Shares issued 500,000Net Asset Value per Share EUR 100.00Number of Shares subscribed 200.00Net Investment Amount EUR 20,000.005 % Subscription Fee EUR 1,000.00Gross Investment Amount EUR 21,000.00

Upon Subscription, all Shares shall be allotted immediately after payment for the Shares subscribed has been made readily available on the relevant Valuation Day at the latest.

For subscriptions made by Institutional Investors the allotment of Shares is conditional upon settlement within a previously agreed period not exceeding three Business Days from the relevant Valuation Day on which the subscription has been received. In these circumstances payment by cheque will not be accepted. If timely payment has not been received within the settlement period, the subscription may lapse and be cancelled at the cost of the Investor or the Investor’s financial intermediary. Failure to make payment on the agreed payment date may result in the Company bringing an action against the defaulting Investor or the Investor’s financial intermediary or deducting any costs or losses incurred by the Company or the Service Agent against any existing holding of the Investor in the Company. In all cases, any confirmation of transaction and any money returnable to the Investor will be held by the Service Agent without payment of interest pending receipt of the remittance.

Subscription may be made for Shares denominated either in the Base Currency of the relevant Sub-fund or in the currency of the relevant Class and/or Sub-class.

Payments should preferably be made by bank transfer and in the Base Currency of the relevant Sub-fund or in the currency of the relevant Class and/or Sub-Class; if payment is made in another currency than the Base Currency of the relevant Sub-fund or the currency of the relevant Class and/or Sub-Class, the Custodian will make an exchange transaction at market conditions and at the expense of the Investor according to its “Charges and Commissions” before execution of the Subscription. This exchange transaction could lead to a postponement of the allotment of Shares.

Should the payment be made by the Investor by cheque, the Custodian will present the cheque for payment at the expense of the Investor according to its “Charges and Commissions”, and the Subscription and allotment of Shares shall only be effected once cleared funds are available to the Custodian in the Base Currency of the relevant Sub-fund or the currency of the relevant Class and/or Sub-Class. The payment in favour of the Company shall include the Net Investment Amount increased by the applicable Subscription Fee and without deduction of any transfer charges.

The Board of Directors may from time to time accept subscriptions for Shares against contribution in kind of securities or other assets which could be acquired by the relevant Sub-fund pursuant to its investment policy and restrictions. Any such contribution in kind will be made at the net asset value of the assets contributed calculated in accordance with the rules set out in the chapter “Net Asset Value” and will be the subject of an auditor’s report drawn up in accordance with the requirements of Luxembourg law. Should the Company not receive good title on the assets contributed this may result in the Company bringing an action against the defaulting Investor or his/her financial intermediary or deducting any costs or losses incurred by the Company or Manager against any existing holding of the applicant in the Company.

If requests for Subscription and/or Conversion on any Valuation Day exceed 10% of a Sub-fund’s Total Net Asset Value, the Company reserves the right not to be bound to issue Shares in the Sub-fund on any one Valuation Day in excess of 10% of the Sub-fund’s Total Net Asset Value. In these circumstances and provided that the Net Asset Value is calculated on each Business Day, the Board of Directors may declare that part or all of the Subscription and/or Conversion requests will be processed during a period not exceeding 8 (eight) Valuation Days and will be priced at the Net Asset Value determined on the Valuation Day the Shares are subscribed and/or converted. On any Valuation Day such Shares will be dealt with before any subsequent requests for Subscription and/or Conversion.

The Board of Directors may also decide that some Sub-funds shall only be open for Subscription during the initial subscription period. After the expiration of such initial subscription period, there shall be no further issue of Shares.

6. Share Dealing

Page 131: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

PB 131131

Redemption of SharesAny Shareholder has the right to request, at any time, that the Company repurchases any or all of its Shares without capital guarantee at their Net Asset Value.

A redemption request will only be executed after the identity of the Shareholder and/or the beneficial owner has been established to the complete satisfaction of the Company. Payment will only be made to the respective Shareholder.

Shareholders wishing to have any or all of their Shares redeemed shall deliver by letter or by facsimile to the Registered Office, the Custodian or a Paying Agent, an irrevocable, written and duly signed redemption request specifying the name, address and account identification of the Shareholder(s), the name of the Sub-fund and the number of Shares to be redeemed as well as payment details for the redemption proceeds (name of bank, bank identification number, account number and name of the account holder(s). Shareholders still having Share certificates shall, when asking for Redemption of their Shares, deliver the Share certificate(s) representing such Shares to the Registered Office, the Custodian or a Paying Agent. Such Share certificate(s) will be cancelled.

If the redemption request is received by the Registered Office, the Custodian or a distributor mentioned in the chapter “Distribution Channels” before or at 15:30 CET on a Business Day, the Redemption will be processed using the Net Asset Value per Share calculated on that day after 15:30 CET. If the redemption request is received later than 15:30 CET on a Business Day, the Redemption will be processed on the first following Business Day thereafter.

All redemption requests will be processed strictly in the order in which they are received, and each Redemption shall be processed at the Net Asset Value of the said Shares.

A Redemption Fee of up to 2% of the Gross Redemption Amount may be charged to Shareholders redeeming Shares. The Redemption Fee is payable to the Principal Distributor, the respective distributor or sales agent.

Example showing the Net Asset Value per Share and the redemption payment amount:

Net Assets EUR 50,000,000Number of Shares issued 500,000Net Asset Value per Share EUR 100.00Number of shares to redeem 200.00Gross Redemption Amount EUR 20,000.001% Redemption Fee (if any) EUR 200.00Net Redemption Amount EUR 19,800.00

For presentation purpose the above example assumes that no EU Savings Tax applies to the redemption. The EU Savings Tax, if applicable to a redemption, will be calculated on the basis of the Net Redemption Amount. Neither the Company nor the Custodian or the Management Company are responsible for any delays or charges incurred at any receiving bank or settlement system.

Redemption proceeds will normally be dispatched to or available in cash to the Shareholder within 8 (eight) days after the relevant Valuation Day and after receipt/presentation of proper documentation. If in exceptional circumstances the liquidity of a Sub-fund is not sufficient to enable the payment to be made within 8 (eight) Business Days after the relevant Valuation Day, such payment will be made as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter.

Shareholders should note that any Redemption of Shares by the Company will take place at a price that may be higher or lower than the original acquisition amount.

The Redemption of Shares of any Class and/or Sub-class of any Sub-fund shall be suspended when the calculation of the Net Asset Value thereof is suspended.

If requests for Redemption and/or Conversion on any Valuation Day exceed 10% of a Sub-fund’s Shares, the Company reserves the right not to be bound to redeem and/or convert on any one

Valuation Day more than 10% of the Shares then in issue. In these circumstances and provided that the Net Asset Value is calculated on each Business Day, the Board of Directors may declare that part or all of such Shares for Redemption and/or Conversion will be redeemed and/or converted during a period not exceeding 8 (eight) Valuation Days and will be priced at the Net Asset Value determined on the Valuation Day the Shares are redeemed and/or converted. On any Valuation Day such Shares will be dealt with before any subsequent requests for Redemption and/or Conversion.

Mandatory repurchase of SharesWhere the Board of Directors become aware that a Shareholder in the Company (a) is a US Person or is holding Shares for the account of a US

Person, so that the number of US Persons known to the Board of Directors to be beneficial owners of Shares for the purposes of the US Investment Company Act of 1940 exceeds 100 or such other number as the Board of Directors may determine from time to time; or

(b) is holding Shares in breach of any law or regulation or otherwise in circumstances having or which may have adverse regulatory, tax or fiscal consequences for the Company or its Shareholders;

the Board of Directors may

(i) direct such Shareholder to dispose of the relevant Shares to a person who is qualified or entitled to own or hold such Shares; or

(ii) redeem the relevant Shares at the Net Asset Value of the Shares as at the Valuation Day immediately following the date of notification of such mandatory redemption to the relevant Shareholder.

Conversion of Shares Any Shareholder has the right to request, at any time, that the Company converts any or all of its Shares without capital guarantee at their respective Net Asset Value per Share subject to the following restrictions: • Private Shares may not be converted into Institutional Shares

and vice versa; and• Accumulating Shares may not be converted into Distributing

Shares and vice versa; • E-Shares may not be converted into any other Shares and

vice versa;• AX-Shares, HAX EUR-Shares, HAX GBP-Shares, HAX JPY-

Shares, X-Shares, HX EUR-Shares, HX USD-Shares, HX SEK-Shares, HX NOK-Shares, HX DKK-Shares, HX GBP-Shares and HX JPY-Shares may not be converted into any other Shares and vice versa;

• Y-Shares and HY PLN-Shares may not be converted into any other Shares and vice versa;

• E1-Shares may not be converted into any other Shares and vice versa;

• Only AI1-Shares and HAI1 EUR-Shares may be converted into other AI1-Shares and HAI1 EUR-Shares. No other Shares may be converted into AI1-Shares and HAI1 EUR Shares;

• Only AI1-Shares, HAI1 EUR-Shares, BI1-Shares and HBI1 EUR-Shares may be converted into other BI1-Shares and HBI1 EUR-Shares. No other Shares may be converted into BI1-Shares and HBI1 EUR Shares;

• Only AP1-Shares, HA1 EUR-Shares, AI1-Shares and HAI1 EUR-Shares may be converted into AP1-Shares and HA1 EUR; and

• Only AP1-Shares, HA1 EUR-Shares, BP1-Shares, HB1 EUR-Shares, AI1-Shares, HAI1 EUR-Shares, BI1-Shares and HBI1 EUR-Shares may be converted into BP1-Shares and HB1 EUR-Shares.

Shareholders wishing to have any or all of their Shares converted to another Sub-fund / Class or Sub-class shall deliver, by letter or by facsimile addressed to the Registered Office, the Custodian or a Paying Agent, an irrevocable, written and duly signed conversion request specifying the name, address and account identification of the Shareholder(s), the name of the Sub-fund and number of Shares to be converted as well as the name of the Sub-fund and the Class or Sub-class into which the Shares shall be converted. Shareholders still having Share certificates shall, when asking for Conversion of their Shares, deliver the Share certificate(s) representing such Shares to the Registered Office,

Page 132: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

132 PB

the Custodian or a Paying Agent. Such Share certificate(s) will be cancelled. A physical certificate will not be issued for the Shares converted into.

If the conversion request is received by the Registered Office, the Custodian or a distributor mentioned in chapter “Distribution Channels” of this Prospectus before or at 15:30 CET on a Business Day, the Conversion will be processed using the Net Asset Value per Share for the relevant Sub-funds calculated on that Valuation Day after 15:30 CET. If the conversion request is received later than 15:30 CET on a Valuation Day, the Conversion will be processed on the first following Valuation Day thereafter. Conversion will only take place on the first possible, common Valuation Day for the Shares redeemed and the Shares subscribed.

All conversion requests will be processed strictly in the order in which they are received, and each Conversion shall be processed at the Net Asset Value of the respective Shares.

Conversion should normally be for a minimum Gross Conversion Amount which is set out for each Sub-fund in the relevant Sub-fund’s specifications.

A Conversion Fee of up to 1% of the Gross Conversion Amount may be charged to Shareholders converting Shares. The Conversion Fee is payable to the Principal Distributor, the respective distributor or sales agent.

Should the Subscription Fee of the Sub-fund into which the Shareholders subscribe be higher than the Subscription Fee of the Sub-fund they redeem, Shareholders may be requested to bear the difference in the Subscription Fee between the Sub-fund they redeem and the Sub-fund to which they subscribe, calculated on the Gross Conversion Amount net of any fees and taxes applicable, Conversion costs, if any, shall be borne by the Shareholder asking for the Conversion of his Shares.

The rate at which all or part of the Shares in a given Class and/or Sub-class of a Sub-fund (the “Original Shares”) are converted into Shares of another Class and/or Sub-class of a Sub-fund (the “New Shares”) is determined by means of the following formula:

B x C x EA =

D

whereA is the number of New Shares to be allocated; B is the number of Original Shares which are to be converted;C is the Net Asset Value per Share of the Original Shares on

the respective Valuation Day;D is the Net Asset Value per Share of the New Shares on the

respective Valuation Day;E is the applied rate of exchange on the respective Valuation

Day between the currency of the Original Shares and the currency of the New Shares.

The above-mentioned formula does not take into consideration• the possible Conversion Fee of up to 1% of the Gross

Conversion Amount of Original Shares;• the difference in initial Subscription Fee between the Original

Shares and the New Shares which the Shareholder may be requested to bear;

• the conversion costs, if any• any taxes collected at source if applicable.

The formula further assumes that no EU Savings Tax applies to the conversion.

If requests for Conversion and/or Redemption on any Valuation Day exceed 10% of a Sub-fund’s Shares, the Company reserves the right not to be bound to convert and/or redeem on any one Valuation Day more than 10% of the value of Shares then in issue. In these circumstances and provided that the Net Asset Value is calculated on each Business Day, the Board of Directors may declare that part or all of such Shares for Conversion and/or Redemption will be converted and/or redeemed during a period not exceeding 8 (eight) Valuation Days and will be priced at the Net Asset Value determined on the Valuation Day the Shares are converted and/or redeemed. On any Valuation Day such Shares will be dealt with before any subsequent requests for Conversion and/or Redemption.

Anti-money laundering In the context of money laundering prevention and in compliance with Luxembourg and international regulations applicable thereto, any Investor will have to establish its identity to the Company or to the intermediary which collects the Subscription, provided that the intermediary is located in a country that applies the recommendations of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) – also called Groupe d’Action Financière Internationale (GAFI). Such identification shall be evidenced when subscribing for Shares. Redemption or transfer of Shares will only be executed after the identity of the Investor and/or the beneficial owner has been established to the complete satisfaction of the Company.

The Net Asset Value of Shares of each Class and/or Sub-class of each Sub-fund shall be calculated in the Base Currency of the relevant Sub-fund.

The Net Asset Value of each Class and/or Sub-class of each Sub-fund shall be determined by the Custodian by dividing the net assets of the Sub-fund attributable to that Class and/or Sub-class by the number of outstanding Shares of the relevant Class and/or Sub-class.

With respect to the individual Sub-classes denominated in another currency than the Base Currency, provided they are in issue, the Net Asset Value of Shares of such Sub-classes shall be expressed in their relevant currency by converting the Net Asset Value expressed in the Base Currency into the currency of the relevant Sub-class. Such conversion shall be made at the spot exchange rate prevailing on the relevant Valuation Day, as provided by the Custodian.

The Custodian calculates the Net Asset Value per Share in each Sub-fund on each of its Business Days provided it is a Valuation Day for the respective Sub-fund.

The value of the assets of each Class and/or Sub-class of each Sub-fund is determined as follows:

• Securities and Money Market Instruments admitted for official listing on a stock exchange or traded in another regulated market within Europe, North or South America, Asia, Australia, New Zealand or Africa, which operates regularly and is recognised and open to the public are valued on the basis of the last available price at the time when the valuation is carried out. If the same security or money market instrument is quoted on different markets, the quotation of the main market for this security or money market instrument will be used. If there is no relevant quotation or if the quotations are not representative of the fair value, the evaluation will be done in good faith by the Board of Directors or its delegate with a view to establishing the probable bid price for such securities;

• unlisted securities or unlisted Money Market Instruments are valued on the base of their probable bid price as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors or its delegate;

• liquid assets and loans are valued at their nominal value plus accrued interest;

• units/shares of UCITS authorised according to Directive 85/611/EEC as amended and/or other assimilated UCI will be valued at their last available net asset value;

• derivatives are valued at market value.

In addition appropriate provisions will be made to account for the charges and fees levied on the Sub-funds.

7. Net Asset Value

Page 133: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

PB 133133

In the event that it is impossible or incorrect to carry out a valuation in accordance with the above rules owing to particular circumstances, the Board of Directors or their delegate shall be entitled to use other generally recognised valuation principles which can be examined by an auditor, in order to reach a proper valuation of the total assets of each Sub-fund.

The Board of Directors may determine that a swinging single pricing methodology will be applied in the calculation of the daily Net Asset Value of the relevant Sub-fund, in order to compensate for the costs generated by the purchase or sale of the Sub-fund’s assets caused by subscriptions and redemptions. These costs reflect both the estimated fiscal charges and dealing costs that may be incurred by the Sub-fund and the estimated bid/offer spread of the assets in which the Sub-fund invests.

The swinging single pricing methodology will be applied for the relevant Sub-fund by adjusting upwards or downwards its Net Asset Value by an amount, relating to the cost of market dealing for that Sub-fund, determined as a percentage of that Net Asset Value (the “Swing Factor”). The Swing Factor will be determined by the Board of Directors (or any delegate duly appointed by the Board of Directors) and will not exceed 1.75% of the Net Asset Value. The adjustment will be upwards when the net movement results in an increase of all Shares of the Sub-fund and will be downwards when it results in a decrease. However, if assessed appropriate it can be decided only to adjust upwards or downwards. As certain stock markets and jurisdictions may have different charging structures on the buy and sell sides, the resulting Swing Factor may be different for net inflows than for net outflows. The above swinging single pricing methodology will have to be applied when the aggregate transactions result in a Net Investment Amount which, in percentage of the Net Asset Value of the Sub-fund on the relevant Valuation Day, exceeds a threshold fixed by the Board of Directors.

The calculation of the Net Asset Value of the Shares of any Class and/or Sub-class of any Sub-fund and the Subscription, Redemption, and Conversion thereof may be suspended in the following circumstances, in addition to any circumstances provided for by law:

• during any period (other than ordinary holidays or customary weekend closings) when any market or stock exchange is closed which is the principal market or stock exchange for a significant part of the Sub-fund’s investments, or in which trading is restricted or suspended.

• during any period when an emergency exists as a result of which it is impossible to dispose of investments which constitute a substantial portion of the assets of the Sub-fund, or it is impossible to transfer money involved in the acquisition or disposal of investments at normal rates of exchange, or it is impossible to fairly determine the value of any assets in the Sub-fund.

• during any breakdown in the means of communication normally employed in determining the price of any of the Sub-fund’s investments or the current prices on any stock exchange.

• when for any reason the prices of any investment held by the Sub-fund cannot be reasonably, promptly or accurately ascertained.

• during any period when remittance of money which will or may be involved in the purchase or sale of any of the Sub-fund’s investments cannot, in the opinion of the Board of Directors, be effected at normal rates of exchange.

The suspension of the calculation of the Net Asset Value and of the Subscription, Redemption, and Conversion of Shares shall be published in a Luxembourg newspaper and in a newspaper of more general circulation in those countries in which the Company has obtained authorisation for public marketing of its Shares.

I. Investment Restrictions

The Board of Directors shall, based upon the principle of risk spreading, have power to determine the corporate and investment policy for the investments for each Sub-fund, the Base Currency of a Sub-fund and the course of conduct of the management and business affairs of the Company.

Except to the extent that more restrictive rules are provided for in connection with a specific Sub-fund in this Prospectus, the investment policy shall comply with the rules and restrictions laid down hereafter.

and that cooperation between authorities is sufficiently ensured (currently the United States of America, Canada, Switzerland, Hong Kong and Japan);

- the level of protection for unitholders in such other UCIs is equivalent to that provided for unitholders in a UCITS, and in particular that the rules on assets segregation, borrowing, lending, and uncovered sales of Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments are equivalent to the requirements of the Directive;

- the business of the other UCIs is reported in half-yearly and annual reports to enable an assessment of the assets and liabilities, income and operations over the reporting period;

- no more than 10 % of the assets of the UCITS or of the other UCIs, whose acquisition is contemplated, can, according to their constitutional documents, in aggregate be invested in units of other UCITS or other UCIs;

- the OTC derivatives are subject to reliable and verifiable valuation on a daily basis and can be sold, liquidated or closed by an offsetting transaction at any time at their fair value at the Company’s initiative;

(ii) Under no circumstances shall these operations cause the Company to diverge from its investment objectives.

(8) Money Market Instruments other than those dealt in on a Regulated Market or on an Other Regulated Market, to the extent that the issue or the issuer of such instruments is itself regulated for the purpose of protecting investors and savings, and provided that such instruments are:- issued or guaranteed by a central, regional or local

authority or by a central bank of a Member State, the European Central Bank, the EU or the European Investment Bank, an Other State or, in case of a Federal State, by one of the members making up the federation, or by a public international body to which one or more Member States belong, or

- issued by an undertaking any securities of which are dealt in on Regulated Markets or on Other Regulated Markets referred to in (1), (2) or (3) above, or

B. Each Sub-fund may however:

(1) Invest up to 10% of its net assets in Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments other than those referred to above under A (1) through (4) and (8).

(2) Hold cash and cash equivalents on an ancillary basis; such restriction may exceptionally and temporarily be exceeded if the Directors consider this to be in the best interest of the Shareholders.

(3) Borrow up to 10% of its net assets, provided that such borrowings are made only on a temporary basis. Collateral arrangements with respect to the writing of options or the purchase or sale of forward or futures contracts are not deemed to constitute “borrowings” for the purpose of this restriction.

(4) Acquire foreign currency by means of a back-to-back loan.

C. In addition, the Company shall comply in respect of the net assets of each Sub-fund with the following investment restrictions per issuer:

(a) Risk Diversification rules

For the purpose of calculating the restrictions described in (2) to (5) and (8) hereunder, companies which are included in the same Group of companies are regarded as a single issuer.

To the extent an issuer is a legal entity with multiple sub-funds where the assets of a sub-fund are exclusively reserved to the investors in such sub-fund and to those creditors whose claim has arisen in connection with the creation, operation and liquidation of that sub-fund, each sub-fund is to be considered as a separate issuer for the purpose of the application of the risk spreading rules described under items (1) to (5), (7) to (9) and (12) to (14) hereunder.

Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments

(1) No Sub-fund may purchase additional Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments of any single issuer if:(i) upon such purchase more than 10% of its net assets

would consist of Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments of one single issuer; or

(ii) the total value of all Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments of issuers in which it invests more than 5% of its net assets would exceed 40% of the value of its net assets. This limitation does not apply to deposits and OTC derivative transactions made with financial institutions subject to prudential supervision.

(2) A Sub-fund may invest on a cumulative basis up to 20% of its net assets in Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments issued by the same Group of companies.

(3) The limit of 10% set forth above under (1)(i) is increased to 35% in respect of Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments issued or guaranteed by a Member State, by its local authorities, by any Other State or by a public international body of which one or more Member State(s) are member(s).

(4) The limit of 10% set forth above under (1)(i) is increased up to 25% in respect of qualifying debt securities issued by a credit institution which has its registered office in a Member State and which, under applicable law, is submitted to specific public control in order to protect the holders of such qualifying debt securities. For the purposes hereof, “qualifying debt securities” are securities the proceeds of which are invested in accordance with applicable law in assets providing a return which will cover the debt service through to the maturity date of the securities and which will be applied on a priority basis to the payment of principal and interest in the event of a default by the issuer. To the extent that a relevant Sub-fund invests more than 5% of its net assets in debt securities issued by such an issuer, the total value of such investments may not exceed 80% of the net assets of such Sub-fund.

(5) The securities specified above under (3) and (4) are not to be included for purposes of computing the ceiling of 40% set forth above under (1)(ii).

(6) Notwithstanding the ceilings set forth above, each Sub-fund is authorised to invest, in accordance with the principle of risk spreading, up to 100% of its net assets in Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments issued or guaranteed by a Member State, by its local authorities, by any other member state of the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”) such as the U.S. or by a public international body of which one or more Member State(s) are member(s), provided that (i) such securities are part of at least six different issues and (ii) the securities from any such issue do not account for more than 30% of the net assets of such Sub-fund.

(7) Without prejudice to the limits set forth hereunder under (b), the limits set forth in (1) are raised to a maximum of 20 % for investments in shares and/or bonds issued by the same body when the aim of the Sub-fund’s investment policy is to replicate the composition of a certain stock or bond index which is recognised by the Regulatory Authority, on the following basis:- the composition of the index is sufficiently diversified,- the index represents an adequate benchmark for the

market to which it refers,- it is published in an appropriate manner.

The limit of 20 % is raised to 35 % where that proves to be justified by exceptional market conditions in particular in Regulated Markets where certain Transferable Securities or Money Market Instruments are highly dominant. The investment up to this limit is only permitted for a single issuer.

Bank Deposits

(8) A Sub-fund may not invest more than 20 % of its assets in deposits made with the same body.

Units of Open-Ended Companies

(9) No Sub-fund may invest more than 5 % of its assets in the units of UCITS or other UCIs.

Page 135: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

PB 135135

When a Sub-fund invests in the units of other UCITS and/or other UCIs that are managed, directly or by delegation, by the same Management Company or by any other company with which the Management Company is linked by common management or control, or by a substantial direct or indirect holding (regarded as more than 10% of the voting rights or share capital), no subscription or redemption or management fees may be charged to the Company on its investment in the units of such other UCITS and/or UCIs

(b) Limitations on Control

(10) No Sub-fund may acquire such amount of shares carrying voting rights which would enable the Company to exercise a significant influence over the management of the issuer.

(11) The Company may not acquire (i) more than 10% of the outstanding non-voting shares of

any one issuer; (ii) more than 10% of the outstanding debt securities of any

one issuer; (iii) more than 10% of the Money Market Instruments of any

one issuer; or (iv) more than 25% of the outstanding shares or units of the

same UCITS and/or other UCI.

The limits set forth in (ii) to (iv) may be disregarded at the time of acquisition if at that time the gross amount of bonds or of the Money Market Instruments or the net amount of the instruments in issue cannot be calculated.

The ceilings set forth above under (10) and (11) do not apply in respect of:

- Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments issued or guaranteed by a Member State or by its local authorities;

- Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments issued or guaranteed by any Other State;

- Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments issued by a public international body of which one or more Member State(s) are member(s); and

- shares in the capital of a company which is incorporated under or organised pursuant to the laws of an Other State provided that (i) such company invests its assets principally in securities issued by issuers of that State, (ii) pursuant to the laws of that State a participation by the relevant Sub-fund in the equity of such company constitutes the only possible way to purchase securities of issuers of that State, and (iii) such company observes in its investments policy the restrictions set forth under I. C, items (1) to (5), (8), (9) and (11) and under II. B item (1). Where these limits are exceeded Article 49 of the Law shall apply mutatis mutandis.

- shares held by one or more investment companies in the capital of subsidiary companies carrying on only the business of management, advice or marketing in the country/state where the subsidiary is located, in regard to the repurchase of shares at Shareholder’s request exclusively on its or their behalf.

D. In addition, the Company shall comply in respect of its net assets with the following investment restriction per instrument:

Each Sub-fund shall ensure that its global exposure relating to derivative instruments does not exceed the total net value of its portfolio. The exposure is calculated taking into account the current value of the underlying assets, i.e. the market risk components, the counterparty risk, foreseeable market movements and the time available to liquidate the positions.

E. Finally, the Company shall comply in respect of the assets of each Sub-fund with the following investment restrictions:

(1) No Sub-fund may acquire commodities or precious metals or certificates representative thereof, provided that transactions in foreign currencies, financial instruments, indices or Transferable Securities as well as futures and forward contracts, options and swaps thereon are not considered to be transactions in commodities for the purposes of this restriction.

(2) No Sub-fund may invest in real estate provided that investments may be made in securities secured by real estate or interests therein or issued by companies which invest in real estate or interests therein.

(3) No Sub-fund may use its assets to underwrite any securities.(4) No Sub-fund may issue warrants or other rights to subscribe

for shares in such Sub-fund.(5) A Sub-fund may not grant loans or guarantees in favour of

a third party, provided that such restriction shall not prevent each Sub-fund from investing in non fully paid-up Transferable Securities, Money Market Instruments or other financial instruments, as mentioned under A, items (5), (7) and (8).

(6) The Company may not enter into uncovered sales of Transferable Securities, Money Market Instruments or other financial instruments as listed under A, items (5), (7) and (8).

F. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained:

(1) The ceilings set forth above may be disregarded by each Sub-fund when exercising subscription rights attaching to securities in such Sub-fund’s portfolio.

(2) If such ceilings are exceeded for reasons beyond the control of a Sub-fund or as a result of the exercise of subscription rights, such Sub-fund must adopt as its priority objective in its sale transactions the remedying of such situation, taking due account of the interests of its Shareholders. The Directors have the right to determine additional investment restrictions to the extent that those restrictions are necessary to comply with the laws and regulations of countries where shares of the Company are offered or sold.

II. Use of financial derivative instruments

A. The Company shall comply in respect of its net assets with the following restrictions:

Each Sub-fund shall ensure that its global exposure relating to derivative instruments does not exceed the total net value of its portfolio. The Board of Directors may choose one of the following methodologies to measure the market risk components of such global exposure relating to derivative instruments:- The Commitment approach: the positions on derivative

financial instruments are converted into equivalent positions in the underlying assets, after consideration of all netting and coverage effects, as further described in section III.1.2.2. of CSSF Circular 07/308.

- The Value-at-Risk (VaR) approach: the VaR is measured at the whole portfolio level, on a holding period of one month and a 99% confidence level, and is coupled with back tests as well as stress tests.

B. Additionally: (1) The risk exposure to a counterparty in an OTC derivative

transaction may not exceed 10 % of the Sub-fund’s net assets when the counterparty is a credit institution referred to in section I. A (6) above or 5 % of its net assets in other cases.

(2) Investment in financial derivative instruments shall only be made provided that the exposure to the underlying assets does not exceed in aggregate the investment limits set forth in (1) to (8) of section I.C. above and (1) and (2) of section II. C. below. When the Sub-fund invests in index-based financial derivative instruments, these investments do not have to be combined to the limits set forth in (1) to (8) of section I.C. above and (1) and (2) of section II. C. below.

(3) When a Transferable Security or Money Market Instrument embeds a derivative, the latter must be taken into account when complying with the requirements of sections I. A (7) (ii) and II. A.. above as well as with the risk exposure and information requirements laid down in the present Prospectus.

C. Combined limits(1) Notwithstanding the individual limits laid down in (1) and (8)

of section I. C. and (1) of section II. B. above, a Sub-fund may not combine:- investments in Transferable Securities or Money Market

Instruments issued by,- deposits made with, - and/or exposures arising from OTC derivative transactions

undertaken with a single body in excess of 20 % of its net assets.

Page 136: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

136 PB

(2) The limits set out in (1), (3), (4) and (8) of section I. C., in (1) of section II. B. and in (1) of section II.C. above may not be combined, and thus investments in Transferable Securities or Money Market Instruments issued by the same body, in deposits or derivative instruments made with this body carried out in accordance with (1), (3), (4) and (8) of section I. C., in (1) of section II. B. and in (1) of section II.C above may not exceed a total of 35 % of the net assets of the Company.

D. Eligible financial derivative instruments

Each Sub-fund may use derivative instruments provided those transactions do not cause a Sub-fund to diverge from its investment objectives as laid down in this Prospectus and such transactions comply with the conditions and restrictions set out above.

Options on securities:

(1) the Company may not invest in put or call options on securities unless:- such options are quoted on a stock exchange or traded on

a Regulated Market; and- the acquisition price of such options does not exceed,

in terms of premium, 15 % of the total net assets of the relevant Sub-fund;

(2) the Company may not write call options on securities that it does not own unless the aggregate of the exercise prices of such call options does not exceed 25 % of the net asset value of the relevant Sub-fund;

(3) the Company may not write put options on securities unless the relevant Sub-fund holds sufficient liquid assets to cover the aggregate of the exercise prices of such options written.

Currency derivatives:

Sub-funds may be authorised, as part of their investment strategies or investment policy as described in their relevant specifications, to use currency derivatives for:

(1) either hedging purposes

In such case, the Company may enter into forward currency contracts or write call options or purchase put options on currencies provided however that the transactions made in one currency in respect of one Sub-fund may in principle not exceed the valuation of the aggregate assets of such Sub-fund denominated in that currency (or currencies which are likely to fluctuate in the same manner) nor exceed the period during which such assets are held.

By derogation to the above, Sub-funds may be managed by referring to the reference index as mentioned under each Sub-fund for the purpose of hedging currency risk. These reference indexes are appropriate, recognised indices or combinations thereof and disclosed in this Prospectus.

The neutral risk position of any Sub-fund will be the composition of the reference index in both its investment and currency component weightings.

The Company may increase or decrease the currency positions in a Sub-fund in comparison to its respective reference index by purchasing (or selling) currencies for forward settlement by the sale (or purchase) of other currencies held in the Sub-fund’s portfolio.

The Company may give a Sub-fund a currency exposure that differs from its respective reference index provided that, when using forward currency contracts, purchases of currencies that are not the Base Currency of the relevant Sub-fund will be permitted to increase the exposure up to a maximum of 15% above the reference index’s weight of a given currency.

The total of such purchase transactions providing a currency exposure which is greater than the reference index weightings (except purchases in the Base Currency of the Sub-fund) shall not exceed 20% of the assets of the relevant Sub-fund.

In addition, the Company may engage in the following currency hedging techniques:

- hedging by proxy - a technique whereby a Sub-fund effects a hedge of the Base Currency of the Sub-fund (or benchmark or currency exposure of the assets of the Sub-fund) against exposure in one currency by instead selling (or purchasing) another currency closely related to it, provided however that these currencies are indeed likely to fluctuate in the same manner.

- cross-hedging - a technique whereby a Sub-fund sells a currency to which it is exposed and purchases more of another currency to which the Sub-fund may also be exposed, the level of the Base Currency being left unchanged, provided however that all such currencies are currencies of the countries which are at that time within the Sub-fund’s benchmark or investment policy and the technique is used as an efficient method to gain the desired currency and asset exposures.

- anticipatory hedging, - a technique whereby the decision to take a position on a given currency and the decision to have some securities held in a Sub-fund’s portfolio denominated in that currency are separate, provided however that the currency which is bought in anticipation of a later purchase of underlying portfolio securities is a currency associated with those countries which are within the Sub-fund’s benchmark or investment policy.

A Sub-fund may not sell forward more currency exposure than there is in underlying assets exposure on either an individual currency (unless hedging by proxy) or a total currency basis.

In case the publication of the benchmark index has been stopped or where major changes in that benchmark have occurred or if for some reason the Directors feel that another benchmark is appropriate, another benchmark may be chosen. Any such change of benchmark will be reflected in an updated Prospectus.

(2) or investment purposes (as a separate asset class for speculative purposes):

In such case, currency derivatives may conduct a Sub-fund to be long or short in one or more currencies.

Whatever the purpose, hedging or investment, the Company may only enter into forward currency contracts if they constitute private agreements with highly rated financial institutions specialised in this type of transaction and may only write call options and purchase put options on currencies if they are traded on a Regulated Market operating regularly, being recognised and open to the public.

Financial futures and index options:

(1) For the purpose of hedging the risk of the fluctuation of the value of the portfolio securities of its Sub-funds, the Company may sell stock index futures, sell call options on indices or purchase put options on indices provided that there exists sufficient correlation between the composition of the index used and the corresponding portfolio of the relevant Sub-fund; or

(2) For investment purposes, as a separate asset class and provided such purpose is authorised as part of the investment strategies and investment policy as described in the specifications of the relevant Sub-fund, or for the purpose of efficient portfolio management, the Company may, in respect of each Sub-fund, purchase and sell futures contracts and/or purchase and sell options on any kind of financial instruments.

Shall options be purchased, the aggregate acquisition cost (in terms of premiums paid) of options on securities, index options, interest rate options and options on any kind of financial instruments purchased by the Company in respect of a particular Sub-fund shall not exceed 15 % of the total net assets of the relevant Sub-fund;

Furthermore, the Company may only enter into transactions on financial futures and index options referred to above, if these transactions concern contracts which are traded on a Regulated Market operating regularly, being recognised and open to the public.

Page 137: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

PB 137137

Interest rate derivatives

(1) The Company may sell interest rate futures contracts for the purpose of managing interest rate risk. It may also for the same purpose write call options or purchase put options on interest rates or enter into interest rate swaps by private agreement with highly rated financial institutions specialised in this type of operation.

(2) The Company may use bond and interest rate options, bond and interest rate futures and index futures contracts for the purposes of efficient portfolio management.

Swaps

(1) The Company may enter into swap contracts in which the Company and the counterparty agree to exchange payments where one or both parties pay the returns generated by a security, instrument, basket or index thereof. The payments made by the Company to the counterparty and vice versa are calculated by reference to a specific index, security or instruments and an agreed upon notional amount. Any such underlying security or instrument must be a transferable security and any such index must be an index of a Regulated Market. The relevant indices include, but are not limited to, currencies, interest rates, prices and total return on interest rates indices, fixed income indices and stock indices.

(2) The Company may enter into swap contracts relating to any financial instruments or index, including total return swaps.

(3) The Company may use credit default swaps. A credit default swap is a bilateral financial contract in which one counterpart (the protection buyer) pays a periodic fee in return for a contingent payment by the protection seller following a credit event of a reference issuer. The protection buyer must either sell particular obligations issued by the reference issuer for its par value (or some other designated reference or strike price) when a credit event occurs or receive a cash settlement based on the difference between the market price and such reference price. A credit event is commonly defined as bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, material adverse restructuring of debt, or failure to meet payment obligations when due. The International Swap and Derivatives Association (“ISDA”) have produced standardised documentation for these transactions under the umbrella of its ISDA Master Agreement.

The Company may use credit default swaps in order to hedge the specific credit risk of some of the issuers in its portfolio by buying protection. In addition, the Company may, provided it is in its exclusive interest, buy protection under credit default swaps without holding the underlying assets provided that the aggregate premiums paid together with the present value of the aggregate premiums still payable in connection with credit default swap purchased together with the amount of the aggregate of premiums paid relating to the purchase of options on Transferable Securities or on financial instruments for a purpose other than hedging, may not, at any time, exceed 100% of the net assets of the relevant Sub-fund.

The Company may also sell protection under credit default swaps in order to acquire a specific credit exposure provided such possibility is referred to in the investment strategies and investment policy as described in the specifications of the relevant Sub-fund and provided the purpose followed is in the exclusive interest of such Sub-fund.

The Company will only enter into credit default swap transactions with highly rated financial institutions specialised in this type of transaction and only in accordance with the standard terms laid down by the ISDA. Also, the Company will only accept obligations upon a credit event that are within the investment policy of the relevant Sub-fund. The Company will ensure it can dispose of the necessary assets at any time in order to pay redemption proceeds resulting from redemption requests and to meet its obligations resulting from credit default swaps and other techniques and instruments.

(4) The Company may deal in contract for difference (CFD) transactions. CFD is an agreement between two parties to exchange the difference between the opening price and the closing price of the contract, at the close of the contract, multiplied by the number of units of the underlying asset specified within the contract. Differences in settlement are thus made through cash payments, rather than physical delivery of the underlying assets. CFD on transferable securities, financial indexes or swap contracts will be used in strict accordance with the investment policy followed for each of the Sub-funds.

Additional information with respect to options

With respect to the options referred to in the preceding sections above, the Sub-funds may enter into OTC options transactions with highly rated Financial Institutions participating in theses types of transactions if such transactions are more advantageous to the Sub-funds or if quoted options having the required features are not available.

III. Other Special Investment Techniques and Instruments

The Company may employ the following techniques and instruments relating to Transferable Securities and Money Market Instruments provided that such techniques or instruments are considered by the Board of Directors as economically appropriate to the effective portfolio management of the Company in accordance with investment objective of each Sub-fund. When those transactions involve the use of derivatives, the conditions and restrictions set out above must be complied with.

Under no circumstances shall these operations cause a Sub-fund to diverge from its investment objectives as laid down in this Prospectus.

Securities Lending and BorrowingThe Company may enter into securities lending and borrowing transactions provided that they comply with the following rules, in line with CSSF Circular 08/356:

(1) The Company may only lend or borrow securities through a standardised system organised by a recognised clearing institution or through a first class financial institution specialising in this type of transaction.

(2) As part of lending transactions, the Company must in principle receive collateral, the value of which at the conclusion of the contract must be at least equal to the global valuation of the securities lent. Collateral must be given in the form of liquid assets and/or in the form of securities issued or guaranteed by a Member State of the OECD or by their local authorities or by supranational institutions and undertakings of a community, regional or world-wide nature and held in the name of the Company until the expiry of the loan contract. Collateral shall not be required if the securities lending is made through Clearstream International or EUROCLEAR or through any other organisation assuring to the lender a reimbursement of the value of the securities lent, by way of a guarantee or otherwise.

(3) The securities borrowed by the Company may not be disposed of during the time they are held by the Company, unless they are covered by sufficient financial instruments which enable the Company to resituate the borrowed securities at the close of the transaction.

(4) The Company may borrow securities under the following circumstances in connection with the settlement of a sale transaction: (I) during a period the securities have been sent out for re-registration; (II) when the securities have been loaned and not returned in time; and (III) to avoid a failed settlement when the Custodian fails to make delivery.

Repurchase Agreement TransactionsThe Company may on an ancillary basis enter into repurchase agreement transactions which consist of the purchase and sale of securities with a clause reserving the seller the right or the obligation to repurchase from the acquirer the securities sold at a price and term specified by the two parties in their contractual arrangement.

Page 138: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

138 PB

The Company can act either as purchaser or seller in repurchase agreement transactions or a series of continuing repurchase transactions. Its involvement in such transactions is, however, subject to the following rules:

(1) The Company may not buy or sell securities using a repurchase agreement transaction unless the counterparty in such transactions is a first class financial institution specialising in this type of transaction.

(2) During the life of a repurchase agreement contract, the Company cannot sell the securities which are the object of the contract, either before the right to repurchase these securities has been exercised by the counterparty, or the repurchase term has expired.

(3) The Company must take care to ensure that the level of its exposure to repurchase agreement transactions is such that it is able, at all times, to meet its redemption obligations.

(4) Repurchase agreement transactions are expected to take place on an occasional basis only.

IV. Co-management and pooling of assets For the purpose of effective management, where the investment policies of the Sub-funds so permit, the Board of Directors may choose to allow co-management of the assets of certain Sub-funds.

In such case, assets of different Sub-funds will be managed in common. The assets which are co-managed shall be referred to as a “pool” notwithstanding the fact that such pool(s) are used solely for internal management purposes. The pool(s) do not constitute separate entities and are not directly accessible to the Shareholders. Each of the co-managed Sub-funds shall be allocated its specific assets.

Where the assets of two or more Sub-funds are pooled, the assets attributable to each participating Sub-fund will initially be determined by reference to its initial allocation of assets to such a pool and will change in the event of additional allocations or withdrawals.

The entitlements of each participating Sub-fund to the co-managed assets apply to each and every line of investments of such pool.

Additional investments made on behalf of the co-managed Sub-funds shall be allotted to such Sub-funds in accordance with their respective entitlements and assets sold shall be levied similarly on the assets attributable to each participating Sub-fund.

9. Special Risk ConsiderationsInvestors must read these special risk considerations before investing in any of the Company’ Sub-funds.

Special risk consideration regarding investment in the Far Eastern RegionThe Far Eastern Region may include emerging and less developed markets. In emerging and less developed markets the legal, judicial and regulatory infrastructure is still developing but there is much legal uncertainty both for local market participants and their overseas counterparts. Some markets may carry higher risks for investors who should therefore ensure that, before investing, they understand the risks involved and are satisfied that an investment is suitable as part of their portfolio. These risks may include any or all of the following elements: Political or economic risks, legal risks, accounting practices, lacking or insufficient protection of shareholders, market and settlement risks, unclear tax rules, execution and counterparty risk, as well as an uncertain status of nomineeship. This list may not be exhaustive and other risks may occur. Investors’ attention is also pointed to the fact that significant currency movements may occur and that the convertibility of a currency may be revoked.

Hence, investments in emerging and less developed markets should be made only by sophisticated investors or professionals who have independent knowledge of the relevant markets, are able to consider and weight the various risks presented by such investments, and have the financial resources necessary to bear the substantial risk of loss of investment in such investments.

Special risk consideration regarding investments in high-yield debt securitiesCertain High Yield Bonds rated Ba1 or BB+ and below by Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s respectively are very speculative, involve comparatively greater risks than higher quality securities, including price volatility, and may be questionable as to principal and interest payments. The attention of the potential investor is drawn to the type of high-risk investment that the Sub-fund is authorised to make. Compared to higher-rated securities, lower-rated High Yield Bonds generally tend to be more affected by economic and legislative developments, changes in the financial condition of their issuers, have a higher incidence of default and be less liquid. The Sub-Fund may also invest in High Yield Bonds placed by emerging market issuers that may be subject to greater social, economic and political uncertainties or may be economically based on relatively few or closely interdependent industries.

Corporate debt securities may bear Fixed Coupon or Fixed and Contingent Coupon or Variable Coupon and may involve equity features such as conversion or exchange rights or warrants for the acquisition of stock of the same or a different issuer (e.g. synthetic convertibles) or participation based on revenue, sales or profits.

Special risk consideration regarding investments in lower rated debt securitiesSecurities rated below investment grade or assigned equivalent ratings by the Management Company are considered speculative and may be questionable as to repayment of principal and interest. Such securities involve higher credit or liquidity risk.

Page 139: Prospectus Nordea 1, SICAV

139

High Credit Risk: Lower rated debt securities, commonly referred to as ‘‘junk bonds’’ are subject to a substantially higher degree of credit risk than investment grade debt securities. During recessions, a high percentage of issuers of lower rated debt securities may default on payments of principal and interest. The price of a lower rated debt security may therefore fluctuate drastically due to unfavourable news about the issuer or the economy in general.

High Liquidity Risk: During recessions and periods of broad market declines, lower rated debt securities could become less liquid, meaning that they will be harder to value or sell at a fair price.

Risks associated with credit default (“CDS”) transactionsThe purchase of credit default swap protection allows the Company, on payment of a premium, to protect itself against the risk of default by an issuer. In the event of default by an issuer, settlement can be effected in cash or in kind. In the case of a cash settlement, the purchaser of the CDS protection receives from the seller of the CDS protection the difference between the nominal value and the attainable redemption amount. Where settlement is made in kind, the purchaser of the CDS protection receives the full nominal value from the seller of the CDS protection and in exchange delivers to him the security which is the subject of the default, or an exchange shall be made from a basket of securities. The detailed composition of the basket of securities shall be determined at the time the CDS contract is concluded. The events which constitute a default and the terms of delivery of bonds and debt certificates shall be defined in the CDS contract. The Company can if necessary sell the CDS protection or restore the credit risk by purchasing call options.

Upon the sale of credit default swap protection, the Sub-fund incurs a credit risk comparable to the purchase of a bond issued by the same issuer at the same nominal value. In either case, the risk in the event of issuer default is in the amount of the difference between the nominal value and the attainable redemption amount.

Besides the general counterparty risk, upon the concluding of credit default swap transactions there is also in particular a risk of the counterparty being unable to establish one of the payment obligations which it must fulfil. The Sub-fund will ensure that the counterparties involved in these transactions are selected carefully and that the risk associated with the counterparty is limited and closely monitored.

Risks associated with transactions in warrants, options, futures, swaps and contracts for difference (CFD)Some of the Sub-funds may seek to protect or enhance the returns from the underlying assets by using warrants, options, futures, CFD and swap contracts and enter into forward foreign exchange transactions in currency. The ability to use these strategies may be limited by market conditions and regulatory limits and there can be no assurance that the objective sought to be attained from the use of these strategies will be achieved. Participation in the warrants, options or futures markets and in swap contracts and in currency exchange transactions involves investment risks and transaction costs to which the Sub-funds would not be subject if the Sub-funds did not use these strategies. If the investment manager’s predictions of movements in the direction of the securities, foreign currency and interest rate markets are inaccurate, the adverse consequences to a Sub-fund may leave the Sub-fund in a worse position than if such strategies were not used.

Risks inherent to warrants, options, foreign currency, swaps, CFD, futures contracts and options on futures contracts include, but are not limited to: (a) dependence on the investment manager’s ability to predict correctly movements in the direction of interest

rates, securities prices and currency markets; (b) imperfect correlation between the price of options and futures contracts and options thereon and movements in the prices of the securities or currencies being hedged; (c) the fact that skills needed to use these strategies are different from those needed to select portfolio securities; (d) the possible absence of a liquid secondary market for any particular instrument at any time; and (e) the possible inability of a Sub-fund to purchase or sell a portfolio security at a time that otherwise would be favourable for it to do so, or the possible need for a Sub-fund to sell a portfolio security at a disadvantageous time.

Where a Sub-fund enters into swap or CFD transactions it is exposed to a potential counterparty risk. In case of insolvency or default of the swap or CFD counterparty, such event would affect the assets of the Sub-fund.

Risks associated with investment in smaller companiesThe stock prices of smaller and mid-sized companies can perform differently than larger, more recognised, companies and have the potential to be more volatile. A lower degree of liquidity in their securities, a greater sensitivity to changes in economic conditions and interest rates, and uncertainty over future growth aspects may all contribute to such increased price volatility. Additionally, smaller companies may be unable to generate new funds for growth and development, may lack depth in management, and may be developing products in new and uncertain markets all of which are risks to consider when investing in such companies.

Risks associated with investment in Rule 144a SecuritiesRule 144a Securities are not registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). These securities are considered as recently issued transferable securities and are only deemed for investment by Qualified Institutional Buyers (as defined in the US Securities Act of 1933).

Counterparty risksWith OTC derivatives there is a risk that a counterparty will not be able to fulfil its obligations and/or that a contract will be cancelled, e.g. due to bankruptcy, subsequent illegality or a change in the tax or accounting regulations since the conclusion of the OTC derivative contract. In order to determine the counterparty risk relating to OTC financial derivative instruments, the Company will normally apply the method described in section III.2.3 of CSSF Circular 07/308.

Liquidity RiskThe Company’s ability to trade in and out of investments can be limited as the counterparties with which the Company effects transactions might cease making markets or quoting prices in certain of the instruments. This is off greater probability in emerging markets, small capitalisation securities, and some OTC financial derivative instruments.

Risk Management FunctionThe Management Company employs a permanent Risk Management function, which monitors the risk management procedures, oversees the Company’s compliance with the Investment Restrictions, advises on the Risk Profile of each Sub-fund and provides reports to the Board of Directors and Conducting Officers. The function also monitors the risk limits and OTC counterparty limits.

Synthetic Risk and Reward IndicatorEach Sub-fund or Share Class will have, with its KII, a risk rating (synthetic risk and reward indicator) between 1 (representing a lower risk) and 7 (representing a higher risk). This will be calculated weekly.

The Board of Directors of the Company has appointed Nordea Investment Funds S.A. as management company (the “Management Company”) registered with the Luxembourg Supervisory Authority under Chapter 15 of the Law.

The Management Company has been appointed under a Management Company Agreement which is for an indefinite period of time and may be terminated by either party at three months’ notice.

18. Expenses borne by the Company

Taxation of the CompanyUnder Luxembourg law, there are currently no Luxembourg income, withholding or capital gains taxes payable by the Company. The Company is, however, subject to• an annual subscription tax (Taxe d’Abonnement) of 0.05%

on the aggregate Net Asset Value of the outstanding Private Shares of the Company

• an annual subscription tax (Taxe d’Abonnement) of 0.01% on the aggregate Net Asset Value of the outstanding Institutional Shares of the Company.

The Taxe d’Abonnement is calculated and payable at the end of each quarter.

Taxation of the ShareholdersOn 3 June 2003 the European Union agreed on the implementation of the Council Directive 2003/48/EC (the “Savings Tax Directive”). The Savings Tax Directive will apply to the whole European Union (“EU”); furthermore a number of other countries and territories have agreed to introduce rules similar to those of the EU. The Savings Tax Directive is applicable to interest income as defined in the Savings Tax Directive, when the interest income - as a main rule - is received by an individual, who is resident in the EU and holds a bank account in another country or territory

that has agreed to implement the Savings Tax Directive. Further to its implementation on 1 July 2005, the Savings Tax Directive may therefore have an effect on the individual Shareholder taxation level, either as a withholding tax on (part of) the gains realised at disposal of the shares or as a withholding tax on any distributions.

At the date of issue of this Prospectus, there is no Luxembourg withholding tax in general, should the Company decide to make distributions as mentioned in the chapter “Distribution Policy”. However, the Savings Tax Directive, as described above, may have an effect on the distributions.

Prospective Investors should keep themselves informed of the taxes applicable to the acquisition, holding and disposal of Shares and to distributions in respect thereof under the laws of the countries of their citizenship, residence or domicile before they subscribe, convert or redeem any Shares.

Investors and prospective investors should know that the Management Company might not produce all the reporting or the figures necessary to such investors in order for them to comply with all their tax transparency requirements applicable in their jurisdictions and/or to the share classes such investors have invested in.

19. Taxation of the Company and its Shareholders

Dissolution of the CompanyIn the event of the dissolution of the Company by decision of a Shareholders’ meeting, the liquidation shall be effected by one or several liquidators appointed by the meeting of the Shareholders deciding upon such dissolution and determining their powers and their compensation. The liquidator(s) shall realise the Company’s assets in the best interest of the Shareholders and shall distribute the net liquidation proceeds (after deduction of the liquidation charges and expenses) to the Shareholders in proportion to their share in the Company. Any amounts not claimed promptly by any Shareholder will be deposited at the close of the liquidation in escrow with the Caisse de Consignation, Luxembourg. Amounts not claimed from escrow within the period stipulated according to statutory limitation rules will be forfeited according to the provisions of Luxembourg law.

In the event of any contemplated liquidation of the Company, no further Subscription, Conversion, or Redemption will be permitted

after publication of the first notice convening the extraordinary meeting of Shareholders for the purpose of winding-up the Company. All Shares outstanding at the time of such publication will participate in the Company’s liquidation distribution.

Dissolution/Merger of Sub-fundsA Sub-fund with capital guarantee may not be terminated by resolution of the Board of Directors, but shall remain in force irrespective of the Net Asset Value of such Sub-fund until the Sub-fund is dissolved. A Sub-fund without capital guarantee may be terminated by resolution of the Board of Directors if the Net Asset Value of the Sub-fund is below EUR 6,000,000 or its equivalent in any other currency or in the event of special circumstances beyond its control, such as political, economical and military emergencies. In such events, the assets of the Sub-fund will be realised, the liabilities discharged and the net proceeds of realisation distributed to Shareholders in the proportion to their holding of Shares in the Sub-fund. In such event, written notice

20. Dissolution and Merger

A Sub-fund with capital guarantee can not be merged with another Sub-fund, with or without capital guarantee, of the Company.

A Sub-fund without capital guarantee may be merged with another Sub-fund without capital guarantee by resolution of the Board of Directors if the value of its net assets is below EUR 6,000,000 or its equivalent in any other currency or in the event of special circumstances beyond its control, such as political, economic and military emergencies. In such event, written notice of the merger will be given to registered Shareholders and will further be published as described in the chapter of the Statutes entitled “Dissolution of the Company, Liquidation, Merger or Contribution of a Sub-fund”. Each Shareholder of the relevant Sub-fund without capital guarantee shall be given the possibility, within a period of 1 (one) month as of the date of the publication, to request either the repurchase of his Shares, free of any charges, or the exchange

of his Shares, free of any charges, against Shares of a Sub-fund without capital guarantee not concerned by the merger.

At the expiry of this 1 (one) month period any Shareholder which did not request the repurchase or the exchange of its Shares, shall be bound by the decision relating to the merger.

When a Sub-fund is contributed to a sub-fund of another Luxembourg SICAV, the valuation of the Sub-fund’s assets shall be verified by the auditor of the Company who shall issue a written report at the time of the contribution.

The Company does not consider to merge any Sub-fund with another Luxembourg “FCP” or with any foreign investment fund.
