Private investments are generally not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Investment Company Act of 1940, and investors do not have the same protections of the federal securities laws applicable to public investments. These investments are not available to individual investors directly unless certain minimum financial requirements are met. Private investments are subject to increased valuation risk, as market quotations will generally not be readily available. Private investments often involve concentrated, non-diversified portfolios, higher expenses, illiquidity, leverage and a substantial degree of risk.

Impact Investing — The Funds’ impact investing criteria could cause the fund to perform differently compared to funds that do not apply such criteria. Successful application of the Funds’ impact investing strategy will depend upon the Adviser’s and each sub-adviser’s skill in properly identifying and analyzing impact investing issues. Investments made may not generate the amount of positive impact that was intended when the investment was made.
New Fund Risk: The Fund is new with limited operating history, and there can be no assurance that the Fund will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective.
Foreign Securities Risk — Obligations or securities of foreign issuers may be negatively affected by political events, economic conditions or inefficient, illiquid or unregulated markets in foreign countries.
