Fund Disclosure

Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemable.

Due to the nature of the securities in which the Fund invests, the Fund may have relatively high portfolio turnover compared to other funds. 

The values of equity securities, such as common stocks and preferred stock, may decline due to general market conditions that are not specifically related to a particular company, such as real or perceived adverse economic conditions, inflation (or expectations for inflation), changes in the general outlook for corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency rates or adverse investor sentiment generally. Equity securities generally have greater price volatility than fixed-income securities.

The Fund is considered nondiversified and as a result may experience greater volatility than a diversified fund. 

ALPS Advisors, Inc., registered investment adviser with the SEC, is the investment adviser to the Fund. ALPS Advisors, Inc., ALPS Distributors, Inc. and ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc. are affiliated.

ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc. is the distributor for the Fund.
