Risks
All investments involve risks, including possible loss of principal. Investments in underlying funds are subject to the same risks as, and indirectly bear the fees and expenses of, the underlying funds. To the extent the portfolio invests in a concentration of certain securities, regions or industries, it is subject to increased volatility. The portfolio is non-diversified and may invest in a relatively small number of issuers, which may negatively impact the performance and result in greater fluctuation in value. Active management does not ensure gains or protect against market declines. Small- and mid-cap stocks involve greater risks and volatility than large-cap stocks. The investment style may become out of favor, which may have a negative impact on performance. The manager may consider environmental, social and governance (ESG) criteria in the research or investment process; however, ESG considerations may not be a determinative factor in security selection. In addition, the manager may not assess every investment for ESG criteria, and not every ESG factor may be identified or evaluated.
