Liability

  • Bowmark and its respective partners, officers, members, employees and advisers shall not be liable for any direct or indirect or consequential loss or damage (whether arising in tort, contract or otherwise), nor for any loss of revenue, profit, business, data, goodwill or anticipated savings suffered by any person as a result of reliance on a statement or omission on, or the use of or inability to use, this website.

Important information

  • To the extent that this website contains information about the performance of investments made by funds managed or advised by Bowmark, you should be aware that this information has not been audited or verified by an independent party and should not be relied upon by any person as a guarantee, assurance, prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Past performance should not be seen as a guide to future performance. The value of an investment and any income from it can go down as well as up and you may not get back the amount originally invested. The levels of taxation will depend on the individual circumstances of the investor from time to time.

  • These Terms, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter, whether of a contractual or non-contractual nature, are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales.
