Stock markets, especially foreign markets, are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Foreign securities are subject to interest rate, currency exchange rate, economic, and political risks, all of which are magnified in emerging markets. • Growth stocks can perform differently from other types of stocks and the market as a whole and can be more volatile than other types of stocks. • Securities selected using quantitative analysis can perform differently from the market as a whole or securities selected using only fundamental analysis. • The securities of smaller, less well-known companies can be more volatile than those of larger companies. • The health care industries are subject to government regulation and reimbursement rates, as well as government approval of products and services, which could have a significant effect on price and availability, and can be significantly affected by rapid obsolescence and patent expirations. The strategy may have additional volatility because of its narrow concentration in a specific industry. • Value stocks can perform differently than other types of stocks and can continue to be undervalued by the market for long periods of time. • There is no guarantee that a factor-based investing strategy will enhance performance or reduce risk. Before investing, make sure you understand how a factor investment strategy may differ from a more traditional index-based or actively managed approach. Depending on market conditions, factor-based investment may underperform compared to investments that seek to track a market-capitalization weighted index or investments that employ full active management. • The composite return of an index SMA is usually different from that of the index it tracks because of fees, expenses, and tracking error. • Securities selected using quantitative analysis can perform differently from the market as a whole or securities selected using only fundamental analysis • The strategy may not achieve its intended results and could underperform the market as a whole.
