Frequent trading of ETFs could significantly increase commissions and other costs such that they may offset any savings from low fees or costs.

Equity securities may fluctuate in value and can decline significantly in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions.

Non-diversified funds that focus on a relatively small number of securities tend to be more volatile than diversified funds and the market as a whole.

The Fund may invest in companies within the crypto asset, digital asset and blockchain industries that use digital asset technologies or provide products or services involved in the operation of the technology. The technology relating to digital assets, including blockchains and crypto asset industries, is new and developing and the risks associated with digital assets may not fully emerge until the technology is widely used. The effectiveness of the Fund’s strategy may be limited given that the operations of companies in the crypto asset, digital asset and blockchain industries are expected to be significantly affected by the overall sentiment related to the technology and digital assets, and that the companies’ stock prices and the prices of digital assets could be highly correlated. Certain features of digital asset technologies, such as decentralization, open source protocol, and reliance on peer-to-peer connectivity, may increase the risk of fraud or cyber-attack. Restrictions imposed by governments on digital asset related activities may adversely impact blockchain companies and, in turn, the Fund. Companies within the crypto asset, digital asset and blockchain industries may also be impacted by the risks associated with digital asset markets generally.

The Fund may invest in companies that rely on technologies such as the Internet and depend on computer systems to perform business and operational functions, and therefore may be prone to operational and information security risks resulting from cyber-attacks and/or technological malfunctions. Successful cyber-attacks against, or security breakdowns of, a company included in the Fund’s portfolio may result in material adverse consequences for such company, as well as other companies included in the portfolio, and may cause the Fund’s investments to lose value.

Concentrated investments in a particular industry tend to be more volatile than the overall market and increases risk that events negatively affecting such industries could reduce returns, potentially causing the value of the Fund’s shares to decrease.

The Fund is actively managed. The sub-adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, relative value, or potential appreciation of a particular sector, security, commodity or investment strategy may prove to be incorrect, and may cause the Fund to incur losses. There can be no assurance that the sub-adviser’s investment techniques and decisions will produce the desired results.

The value of certain of the Fund’s investments in crypto asset and blockchain industries ETFs that invest in crypto assets and in publicly traded securities of companies engaged in digital asset-related businesses and activities are subject to fluctuations in the value of the crypto asset, which may be highly volatile. The market for crypto asset futures contracts may be less developed, and potentially less liquid and more volatile, than more established futures markets.

The Fund’s use of options involves speculation and can lead to losses because of adverse movements in the price or value of the underlying stock, index, ETF, or other asset, which may be magnified by certain features of the options. The Fund’s successful use of options depends on the ability of the Adviser to forecast market movements correctly. With respect to HECO, individual securities may have call options written against 0-100% of the shares owned by the portfolio.

Companies that provide products or services that are supporting or accelerating the disruptive potential of novel technologies (“Transformative Tech Accelerators”) are engaged in emerging industries and/or new technologies that may be unproven. Transformative Tech Accelerators are vulnerable to rapid changes in product cycles, and may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. Companies that rely heavily on technology tend to be more volatile than the overall market and are subject to additional risks specific to their industries.
