This and additional information can be found in the Fund's full or summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting <a href="assets/pdfs/3EDGE_Prospectus.pdf" target="_blank">3edgeetfs.com/assets/pdfs/3EDGE_Prospectus.pdf</a>. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.</strong></p> 332 <p><strong>Risk Considerations:</strong></p> 333 <p>Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There is no guarantee the Funds will achieve their stated investment objectives. Because the Funds invest in other investment companies, including ETFs, they will bear additional expenses based on its pro rata share of the other investment companyâs or ETFâs operating expenses, including the management fees of the Underlying Fund(s) in addition to those paid by the Funds. The risk of owning an Underlying Fund(s) generally reflects the risks of owning the underlying investments the Underlying Fund(s) holds. The Funds will also incur brokerage costs when they purchase and sell ETFs. There is no guarantee that risk management will be successful.</p> 334 <p>ETFs are subject to specific risks, depending on the nature of the underlying strategy of the fund. These risks could include liquidity risk, sector risk, as well as risks associated with fixed income securities, real estate investments, and commodities, to name a few. While the shares of ETFs are tradeable on secondary markets, they may not readily trade in all market conditions and may trade at significant discounts in periods of market stress. ETFs trade like stocks, are subject to investment risk, fluctuate in market value and may trade at prices above or below the ETFs net asset value. Brokerage commissions and ETF expenses will reduce returns.</p> 335 <p>The Funds may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and could increase the amount of taxes you owe by generating short-term gains, which may be taxed at a higher rate.</p> 336 <p>Because the Funds are new, investors in the Funds bear the risk that the Funds may not be successful in implementing its investment strategy, may not employ a successful investment strategy, or may fail to attract sufficient assets under management to realize economies of scale, any of which could result in the Funds being liquidated at any time without shareholder approval and at a time that may not be favorable for all shareholders. Such liquidation could have negative tax consequences for shareholders and will cause shareholders to incur expenses of liquidation.</p> 337 <p>The Adviser has not previously served as an adviser to a registered investment company. As a result, investors do not have a track record of managing an ETF from which to judge the Adviser, and the Adviser may not achieve the intended result in managing the Funds.</p> 338 <p>Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the funds. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.</p> 339 <p>The Funds are distributed by SEI Investments Distribution Co (SIDCO, 1 Freedom Valley Drive, Oaks, PA 19456) which is not affiliated with 3EDGE Asset Management.
