Technology ETF Performance
Some technology-themed ETFs have in the past significantly outperformed the broader market, offering a way to take part in emerging megatrends and, potentially, improve an investment portfolio’s performance1.
A Technology ETF can offer a simple and liquid way to get diversified exposure to themes, making them a practical way to invest. However, it should be noted that they tend to be more volatile, and riskier, than the broader equity market indices. Normally, investors do not use them for the majority of an investment portfolio, choosing instead to layer them on top of a well-diversified core of other investments.

Why Choose a Technology ETF?
A technology-themed ETF, structured by professionals, could be a simple and effective way to take part in the trends that will rapidly change the shape of our societies for the decades to come. Even if investing in these ETFs involves risk, there are many reasons for investing in a Technology ETF, rather than purchasing single stocks or active funds. Let’s explore them together.

Main Risk Factors
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.
The prices of the securities in the Fund are subject to the risks associated with investing in the securities market, including general economic conditions and sudden and unpredictable drops in value. An investment in the Fund may lose money.
Exists when a particular financial instrument is difficult to purchase or sell. If the relevant market is illiquid, it may not be possible to initiate a transaction or liquidate a position at an advantageous or reasonable price, or at all.
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 securities of smaller companies may be more volatile and less liquid than the securities of large companies. Smaller companies, when compared with larger companies, may have a shorter history of operations, fewer financial resources, less competitive strength, may have a less diversified product line, may be more susceptible to market pressure and may have a smaller market for their securities.
The Fund may invest a relatively high percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers or may invest a larger proportion of its assets in a single issuer. As a result, the gains and losses on a single investment may have a greater impact on the Fund's Net Asset Value and may make the Fund more volatile than more diversified funds.
