Important information on risk
Investing involves risk; principal loss is possible. There is no guarantee the Fund’s investment objectives will be achieved.The Fund’s sustainability themes may limit the number of investment opportunities available to the Fund, and as a result, at times, the Fund may underperform funds that are not subject to such thematic considerations. The sub-adviser may also not be able to assess the thematic alignment of each company eligible for purchase by the Fund. For example, the sub-adviser may not be able to determine an overall sustainability rating for each company based on the thematic considerations because the third-party service providers may not have data on the entire universe of companies considered by the sub-adviser for the Fund, or may not have information with respect to each theme described in the Principle Investment Strategies section above. Furthermore, “sustainability” is not uniformly defined, and there are significant differences in interpretations of what it means for a company to meet sustainability criteria. The sub-adviser’s assessment of a company’s alignment with one or more of the defined investment themes may differ from assessments made by other funds, managers, third-party ratings providers or investors. As a result, there is no guarantee that the Fund’s investments will reflect the sustainability considerations of any investor.
Diversification does not assure a profit or protect against loss.
Responsible investing incorporates Environmental Social Governance (ESG) factors that may affect exposure to issuers, sectors, industries, limiting the type and number of investment opportunities available, which could result in excluding investments that perform well.
ESG integration incorporates financially relevant ESG factors into investment research in support of portfolio management for actively managed strategies. Financial relevancy of ESG factors varies by asset class and investment strategy. Applicability of ESG factors may differ across investment strategies. ESG factors are among many factors considered in evaluating an investment decision, and unless otherwise stated in the relevant offering memorandum or prospectus, do not alter the investment guidelines, strategy or objectives.

Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) may not be marketed or advertised as an open-end investment company or mutual fund.
The Morningstar RatingTM for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods. ©2024 Morningstar, Inc.
