Important Risks: Investing involves risk, including the loss of principal. Integration of environmental, social, and/or governance (ESG) characteristics into the investment process may not work as intended. Focusing on investments that involve sustainable initiatives may result in foregoing certain investments and may result in different performance compared to funds that do not have a similar focus.
