Fidelity Factor ETFs
Fidelity offers factor ETFs across geographies and asset classes
Factor investing has been a key component of Fidelity's investment process and philosophy for decades. Factors are characteristics of securities that can help explain risk and return; Factor ETFs (sometimes referred to as 'smart beta') can help investors with income generation, enhanced performance or risk management. Fidelity's factor ETFs are constructed with the objective to provide exposure to the desired factor while minimizing unintended risk at the same time.

- 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. The securities of smaller, less well-known companies can be more volatile than those of larger companies. There is no guarantee that a factor-based investing strategy will enhance performance or reduce risk. Before investing, make sure you understand how the fund’s factor investment strategy may differ from more traditional index products. Depending on market conditions, fund performance may underperform, potentially for extended periods of time, compared to products that seek to track a more traditional index. The return of an index ETF is usually different from that of the index it tracks because of fees, expenses, and tracking error. An ETF may trade at a premium or discount to its Net Asset Value (NAV).
- You should be sure to understand how a factor investing strategy may differ from a more traditional index-based or actively managed approach. Depending on market conditions, factor-based investments may underperform compared with investments that seek to track a market capitalization-weighted index or investments that employ full active management. There can be no assurance that an active trade market will be maintained, and trading may be halted due to market conditions.
