Investors cannot invest directly in indexes. The performance of any index is not indicative of the performance of any investment and does not take into account the effects of inflation and the fees and expenses associated with investing. Past performance is not an indication or guarantee of future results. The use of such an investment strategy does not guarantee against the risk of loss and there is risk that FCFQM selected stocks may underperform the markets, the relevant index or securities selected by other managers with similar investment objectives and investment strategies. In evaluating a company’s ESG scores, FCF Advisors relies upon information and data obtained through voluntary or third-party reporting that may be limited, incomplete, inaccurate or unavailable, or present conflicting information and data with respect to the company, which in each case could cause FCF Advisors to incorrectly assess such company’s business practices with respect to its ESG practices. Further, different methodologies may be used by the various data sources that provide ESG data.
