Please read it carefully before investing. Performance quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so you may have a gain or loss when shares are sold. Current performance may be higher or lower than that quoted. Short term performance is not a good indication of a Vident ETF’s future performance, and an investment should not be made based solely on returns. Investing involves risk, including the risk of loss of principal. Each Vident ETF has the same risks as the underlying securities traded on the exchange throughout the day at market price. Redemptions are limited and often commissions are charged on each trade. Investor shares are bought and sold at market price (not net asset value or NAV), may trade at a discount or premium to NAV, and are not individually redeemed from a Vident ETF. Ordinary brokerage commissions may apply. The Vident ETFs’ investment adviser is Vident Asset Management. Vident Asset Management owns the indices that each Vident ETF’s investment objectives are set against. The Vident ETFs are distributed by ALPS Distributors, LLC. ALPS is not affiliated with Vident Asset Management.
