The Fund is non-diversified and may invest in derivatives, which are often more volatile than other investments and may magnify the Fund’s gains or losses. International investments, including emerging markets, may involve risk of capital loss from unfavorable fluctuation in currency values, from differences in generally accepted accounting principles or from social, economic or political instability in other nations. The Fund may underperform other similar funds that do not consider ESG guidelines when making investment decisions.
