HSBC will launch funds to the entire spectrum of investors, offering the Aggressive Growth Strategy Fund, the Growth Strategy Fund, the Moderate Growth Strategy Fund, the Conservative Growth Strategy Fund and the Conservative Income Strategy Fund.

Each fund will be offered three share classes, A, B and C. HSBC has not yet disclosed the operating expenses of the funds.
