| Investment Objective: |
The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a combination of exchange-traded options contracts that provide exposure to ETFs that invest in U.S. large-capitalization, U.S. small-capitalization, and international developed market equity securities, while seeking to protect against a predetermined amount of losses (e.g., 10%) in such ETFs. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in instruments that provide the Fund with direct or indirect exposure to equity securities. McCarthy & Cox determines the Fund's allocations to the different asset classes based on it's macro view on such metrics as U.S. real gross domestic product (GDP) growth relative to developed and developing economies, employment metrics, earnings estimates, and market valuations. When the Fund adds exposure to a particular underlying ETF, the Fund will generally seek to protect such investment against a predetermined amount of losses (e.g., 10%) for a particular period of time (e.g., 3 months) (a "Buffer"). The options used to implement the Buffer will typically also cause the Fund's potential upside from the new investment to be limited for the same period of time (a "Cap"). |
