Product Guide
An investment in the Funds is subject to risk, including the possible loss of principal amount invested. Derivatives, as associated with FLRT,
GEUR, GYEN, QEH, VEGA, may be riskier and more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions than other types of investments
and could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund’s original investment. GIVE, HDGB, HDGE, QEH and VEGA may participate in
leveraged transactions to include selling securities short which creates the risk of magnified capital losses. Under certain market conditions,
short sales can increase the volatility and decrease the liquidity of certain securities or positions and may lower the Fund’s return or result in
a loss.
Writing and purchasing call and put options are specialized activities and entail greater than ordinary investment risk when considering
VEGA. AADR, DIVI and FWDI may use ADRs which are subject to the risk of change in political or economic conditions and exchange rates
in foreign currencies. HYLD includes high yield risk, which are lower rated bonds involve a greater degree of risk than investment grade bonds
in return for higher yield potential.
As it pertains to DIVI, Real Estate Investment Trust Risk (“REITs”) will be subject to the risks associated
with the direct ownership or real estate such as fluctuation in value of property and defaults by borrowers or tenants. DIVI may invest in
Exchange-Traded Vehicles which subjects the Fund to the risks associated with such vehicle’s investments or reference asset in the case of
ETNs, including the possibility that value of the securities could decrease. HOLD’s investment in fixed income securities will change in value
in response to interest rate changes and other factors, such as the perception of the issuer’s creditworthiness.
The risks associated with each
Fund include the risks associated with the underlying ETFs, which can result in higher volatility, and are detailed in each Fund’s prospectus.
These Funds may not be suitable for all investors.
A long position is the purchase of an investment with the expectation that it will rise in value. A short position is the sale of a borrowed
investment with the expectation that it will decline in value. Duration measures (in years) the sensitivity of the price of a fixed-income
investment to a 1% change in interest rates.
Shares are bought and sold at market price (closing price) not NAV and are not individually redeemed from the Fund.
Market price returns are
based on the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4:00pm Eastern Time (when NAV is normally determined), and do not represent the return you
would receive if you traded at other times. Holdings and allocations are subject to risks and to change.
Before investing you should carefully consider the Fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. This and other
information is in the prospectus, a copy of which may be obtained by visiting the Fund’s website at www.AdvisorShares.com.
