Electrification, the shift from fossil fuels to electricity to power transport, industry, and daily life, is no longer a niche trend ; it is rapidly becoming the backbone of modern economies. As economies digitalize, transport systems electrify, and industries transition toward cleaner processes, electricity demand is accelerating at an unprecedented pace. In fact, electricity demand is growing twice as fast as overall energy consumption, driven by structural forces such as AI, data centers, electric vehicles (EVs), and urbanization.

Because all or a portion of the Fund are being invested in securities denominated in foreign currencies, the Fund’s exposure to foreign currencies and changes in the value of foreign currencies versus the base currency may result in reduced returns for the Fund, and the value of certain foreign currencies may be subject to a high degree of fluctuation.
Investments in emerging market countries are subject to specific risks and securities are generally less liquid and less efficient and securities markets may be less well regulated. Specific risks may be heightened by currency fluctuations and exchange control; imposition of restrictions on the repatriation of funds or other assets; governmental interference; higher inflation; social, economic and political uncertainties.
The Fund’s assets may be concentrated in one or more particular sectors or industries. The Fund may be subject to the risk that economic, political or other conditions that have a negative effect on the relevant sectors or industries will negatively impact the Fund's performance to a greater extent than if the Fund’s assets were invested in a wider variety of sectors or industries.
