About Invesco Ltd.
Invesco Ltd. is an independent
investment management firm dedicated to delivering an investment
experience that helps people get more out of life. NYSE: IVZ;
invesco.com.
Commissions, management fees and expenses may all be associated
with investments in ETFs. ETFs are not guaranteed, their values
change frequently and past performance may not be repeated. Please
read the prospectus before investing. Copies are available from
Invesco Canada Ltd. at powershares.ca.
There are risks involved with investing in ETFs. Please read the
prospectus for a complete description of risks relevant to the ETF.
Ordinary brokerage commissions apply to purchases and sales of ETF
units.
Most PowerShares ETFs seek to replicate, before fees and
expenses, the performance of the applicable index, and are not
actively managed. This means that the sub-advisor will not attempt
to take defensive positions in declining markets and the ETF will
continue to provide
exposure to each of the securities in the index regardless of
whether the financial condition of one or more issuers of
securities in the index deteriorates. In contrast, if a PowerShares
ETF is actively managed, then the sub-advisor has discretion to
adjust that PowerShares ETF's holdings in accordance with the ETF's
investment objectives and strategies.
Investors should be aware of the risks associated with data
sources and quantitative processes used in our investment
management process. Errors may exist in data acquired from
third-party vendors, the construction of model portfolios and in
coding related to the index and portfolio construction process.
While Research Affiliates takes steps to identify data and process
errors so as to minimize the potential impact of such errors on
index and portfolio performance, we cannot guarantee that such
errors will not occur.
