Important Advisory: Changes in Investment Strategy of BPI Premium Bond Fund

Dear Valued Client,

We would like to inform you that effective July 16, 2025, the investment strategy of BPI Premium Bond Fund (the “Fund”) will be amended to provide greater flexibility in duration management. This enhancement aims to capture more opportunities in the local fixed income market with the goal of delivering stronger fund performance.

To align with the new mandate, the Fund’s investment objective, policy, benchmark, duration, and risk profile will be updated as follows: 

Your next steps:

1. Review your risk profile: The change in the Fund strategy results in a more aggressive risk profile. As such, we strongly encourage you to review and update your Client Suitability Assessment to ensure the Fund’s new mandate aligns with your risk appetite and financial objectives.

   You can update your risk profile through a BPI branch or digitally via BPI online. For a guide in updating your risk profile via BPI online, please visit https://bit.ly/BPIInvOnline.

    

2. Decide if you agree with the change: Your continued investment in the Fund will signify your agreement with the change, including the additional risks you may be taking with the Fund’s shift to a Moderately Aggressive risk profile.

   If you do not agree with the changes or if the updated risk profile of the Fund does not align with your preferences, you have the option to redeem your investment based on the Fund’s redemption terms on or before July 16, 2025.
