Fund Disclosure
The commodities markets and the prices of various commodities may fluctuate widely based on a variety of factors. Because the Fund’s performance is linked to the performance of highly volatile commodities, investors should consider purchasing shares of the Fund only as part of an overall diversified portfolio and should be willing to assume the risks of potentially significant fluctuations in the value of the Fund. The Fund invests in commodity futures related investments, which are derivative instruments that allow access to a diversified portfolio of commodities without committing substantial amounts of capital. Additional risks of commodity futures related investments include liquidity risk and counterparty credit risk. Liquidity risk is the risk stemming from the lack of marketability of an investment that cannot be bought or sold quickly enough to prevent or minimize a loss. Counterparty risk is the risk that a party to a transaction will fail to fulfill its obligations. The term is often applied specifically to swap agreements in which no clearinghouse guarantees the performance of the contract.
Another principal risk of investing in the Fund is equity risk, which is the risk that the value of the securities held by the Fund will fall due to general market and economic conditions, perceptions regarding the industries in which the issuers of securities held by the Fund participate or factors relating to specific companies in which the Fund invests. The Fund’s investments in non-US issuers may be even more volatile and may present more risks than investments in US issuers. Equity investments in commodity-related companies may not move in the same direction and to the same extent as the underlying commodities.
The Fund invests in commodity-related equity securities which are generally investments in affiliated exchange-traded funds (ETFs), primarily the ALPS | CoreCommodity Natural Resources ETF. The Adviser has agreed to waive and/or reimburse the Fund for any acquired fund fees and expenses payable by the Fund that are attributable to the portion of the Fund’s assets invested in an affiliated ETF. Each ETF in which the Fund invests will be subject to its own principal risks. Those ETF risks may in turn become principal risks of an investment in the Fund. ETFs are investment companies that are bought and sold on a securities exchange. The Fund could lose money by investing in an ETF. Overall securities market risks may affect the value of individual instruments in which the Fund or an Underlying ETF invests. When the value of the Fund’s investments goes down, your investment in the Fund decreases in value and you could lose money.
