To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees
of Renaissance Capital Greenwich Funds
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of the Renaissance IPO ETF and the Renaissance International IPO ETF, each a series of shares of Renaissance Capital Greenwich Funds (the "Trust"), including the schedules of investments, as of September 30, 2025, the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Funds as of September 30, 2025, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds' financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We have served as the auditor of one or more of the funds in the Trust since 1997.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds' internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of September 30, 2025 by correspondence with the custodian. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Renaissance IPO ETFs
Notes to financial statements
For the Year Ended September 30, 2025
The Renaissance IPO ETF and the Renaissance International IPO ETF (each a "Fund" and collectively, the "Funds") are a series of Renaissance Capital Greenwich Funds ("the Trust"), a Delaware statutory trust, each operating as a registered, non-diversified, open-end investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"). The Trust, organized on February 3, 1997, may issue an unlimited number of shares of the Funds. The shares of the Funds are referred to herein as "Shares." The Renaissance IPO ETF commenced operations on October 14, 2013 and the Renaissance International IPO ETF commenced operations on October 6, 2014. The financial statements herein relate solely to those of the Funds.
The Funds are exchange-traded funds ("ETFs"). As ETFs, the Funds trade like other publicly-traded securities and are designed to track an index. Unlike shares of a mutual fund, which can be bought from and redeemed by the issuing fund by all shareholders at a price based on net asset value ("NAV"), Shares of the Funds may be directly purchased from and redeemed by a Fund at NAV solely by certain large institutional investors. The Shares of the Funds are listed on the NYSE Arca (the "Exchange"), and trade in the secondary market at market prices that may differ from the Shares' NAV.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in preparation of their financial statements. These policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting year. Actual results could differ from those estimates. These financial statements are presented in United States dollars.
Each Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 "Financial Services - Investment Companies".
A. FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATIONS: Values of investments denominated in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars using the current exchange rates each business day. Purchases and sales of investments and dividend income are translated into U.S. dollars using the current prevailing exchange rate on the transaction date. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on realized and unrealized gains or losses on securities is reflected as a component of such gains or losses. Transactions in foreign denominated assets may involve greater risks than domestic transactions.
B. SECURITY VALUATION: The values of the Funds' securities for which market quotations are readily available as defined in Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act are based on the securities' last quoted sales prices on their principal exchanges.
In the absence of a last reported sales price, values may be based on the mean between the current bid and ask prices, if available. Any Fund's securities for which market quotations are not readily available, as well as restricted securities or other investment assets, are to be valued at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with Valuation Procedures, approved by the Board of Trustees (the "Board"). To carry out the responsibility to determine the Fair Value of any securities or other assets for which market quotations are not readily available, the Board has designated Renaissance Capital LLC (the "Adviser" or "Valuation Designee") as the Valuation Designee. The Funds' Administrator, State Street Bank and Trust Company, assists the Valuation Designee with its responsibilities as set forth in the Valuation Procedures. As a general principle, the "fair value" of a security is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. There is no single standard for determining the fair value of such securities. Rather, in determining the fair value of a security, the Valuation Designee shall take into account the relevant factors and surrounding circumstances, a few of which may include: (i) the nature and pricing history (if any) of the security; (ii) whether any dealer quotations for the security are available; (iii) possible valuation methodologies that could be used to determine the fair value of the security; (iv) the recommendation of the Adviser with respect to the valuation of the security; (v) whether the same or similar securities are held by other Funds managed by the Adviser and the methodologies used to value comparable or similar securities in those Funds; (vi) the extent to which the fair value determination will be based on data or formulae produced by third parties independent of the Adviser; (vii) the liquidity or illiquidity of the market for the security; (viii) the existence of merger proposals, tender offers or other types of "exit" events for shareholders of the security's issuer; (ix) court action or governmental intervention with respect to a security or its issuer; and (x) price changes of a relevant market index that serves as a reasonable proxy instrument for the fair valued security. Short-term instruments with maturities of 60 days or less at the date of the purchase generally are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value; short-term

Renaissance IPO ETFs
Notes to financial statements
For the Year Ended September 30, 2025 (Continued)
instruments with maturities greater than 60 days at the date of purchase are valued at the midpoint between the latest available and representative bid and ask prices, and commencing 60 days prior to maturity such securities are valued at amortized cost. Money market-type instruments that at a valuation time have a remaining maturity of 60 days or less may be valued at amortized cost (purchase price or last valuation, as applicable, adjusted for accretion of discount or amortization of premium), unless the Valuation Designee believes another valuation is more appropriate. Municipal daily or weekly variable rate demand instruments may be priced at par plus accrued interest. Investments in money market funds are valued at that day's published NAV. The Funds may also use fair value pricing in a variety of circumstances, including, but not limited to, situations where the value of a security in a Fund's portfolio has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the market on which the security is principally traded, or where trading in a security has been suspended or halted. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that a fair value determination for a security is materially different than the value that could be received upon the sale of the security. In addition, fair value pricing could result in a difference between the prices used to calculate the NAV of the Funds and the prices used by each of the Funds' benchmark indices, the Renaissance IPO Index and the Renaissance International IPO Index, respectively (the "Indices"). This may adversely affect the Funds' ability to track the Indices.
The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of most of their investments on a recurring basis. GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Funds have the ability to access.
Level 2 - Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Funds' own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability and would be based on the best information available.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following table summarizes the valuations inputs of the Fund's investments by each fair value hierarchy level as of September 30, 2025:

Transfers between investment levels may occur as the markets fluctuate and/or the availability of data used in an investment's valuation changes. During the year September 30, 2025, there were no transfers between levels.
The following is a reconciliation of Level 3 assets for which significant unobservable inputs were used to determine fair value. The table presents the activity of Level 3 securities held at the beginning and at the end of the year.

Notes to financial statements
For the Year Ended September 30, 2025 (Continued)
C. INVESTMENT INCOME: Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income, if any, is recorded on an accrual basis.
D. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis for financial reporting purposes. In determining the gain or loss from the sale of securities, the cost of securities sold is determined on the basis of identified cost.
E. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS: In this reporting year, the Funds adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update 2023-07, Segment Reporting ("Topic 280") - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures ("ASU 2023-07"). Adoption of the new standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Funds' financial position or the results of its operations. An operating segment is defined in Topic 280 as a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating
results that are regularly reviewed by the public entity's chief operating decision maker (CODM) to make decisions about resources to be allocated to the segment and assess its performance, and has discrete financial information available. The President, William K. Smith, acts as the Funds' CODM. Each Fund represents a single operating segment, as the CODM monitors the operating results of the Fund as a whole and the Fund's long-term strategic asset allocation is pre-determined in accordance with the terms of its prospectus, based on a defined investment strategy which is executed by the Fund's portfolio manager. The financial information in the form of the Fund's portfolio composition, total returns, expense ratios and changes in net assets (i.e., changes in net assets resulting from operations, creations and redemptions), which are used by the CODM to assess the segment's performance versus the Fund's comparative benchmarks and to make resource allocation decisions for the Fund's single segment, is consistent with that presented within the Fund's financial statements. Segment assets are reflected on the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities as "total assets" and significant segment expenses are listed on the accompanying statement of operations.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2023-09 ("ASU 2023-09"), Income Taxes (Topic 740) Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which amends quantitative and qualitative income tax disclosure requirements in order to increase disclosure consistency, bifurcate income tax information by jurisdiction and remove information that is no longer beneficial. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and early adoption is permitted. Fund Management is evaluating the impacts of these changes on the Fund's financial statements.
2. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the Funds' intention to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute all of their taxable income to relieve them from all, or substantially all, Federal income and excise taxes. Accordingly, no provision for Federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Funds will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon their current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which the Funds invest.
The Funds recognize the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only when the position is "more likely than not" to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management has reviewed the tax positions in the open tax years (current and prior years, as applicable) or expected to be taken in the Funds' 2025 tax returns and concluded that no liability for unrecognized tax benefits should be recorded related to uncertain tax positions taken in the above open tax years. The Funds identify their major tax jurisdictions as U.S. Federal and foreign jurisdictions where the Funds make significant investments.

Notes to financial statements
For the Year Ended September 30, 2025 (Continued)
The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation, accumulated net realized loss on investments and accumulated net investment loss is primarily attributable to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales and adjustments for real estate investment trusts and partnerships.
Capital loss carry forwards are available through the date specified below to offset future realized net capital gains for federal income tax purposes. Future capital loss carryover utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations. To the extent future gains are offset by capital loss carry forwards, such gains will not be distributed. As of September 30, 2025, the Renaissance IPO ETF and Renaissance International IPO ETF had non-expiring short term capital loss carry forwards of $151,622,311 and $9,311,905, respectively and long term capital loss carry forwards of $104,479,893 and $5,822,850, respectively.
The Renaissance IPO ETF and Renaissance International IPO ETF have elected to defer losses incurred from November 1, 2024 through September 30, 2025 in accordance with federal income tax rules. These losses are treated as having arisen on the first day of the following fiscal year. As of September 30, 2025, Renaissance IPO ETF and Renaissance International IPO ETF did not have any late year ordinary loss deferrals.
The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended September 30, 2025 was ordinary income of $1,113,143 and $50,024 for the Renaissance IPO ETF and Renaissance International IPO ETF, respectively, and return of capital of $68,363 for Renaissance IPO ETF. The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended September 30, 2024 was ordinary income of $65,453 and $37,066 for the Renaissance IPO ETF and Renaissance International IPO ETF, respectively.
A. DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: The Funds will normally distribute substantially all of their net investment income at least annually. Any realized net capital gains will be distributed annually. The Funds may also pay a special distribution at any time to comply with U.S. federal tax requirements. All distributions are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount and character of income and capital gain distributions to be paid are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These "book/tax" differences are considered either temporary (e.g., deferred losses, capital loss carryforwards) or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the composition of net assets based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Any such reclassifications will have no effect on net assets, results of operations, or net asset values per share of the Funds.
Permanent book and tax differences resulted in reclassifications for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025 as follows:
|
Increase (Decrease) to Paid-In Capital |
Distributable earnings (accumulated loss) |
|||||||
| Renaissance IPO ETF | $ | 16,298,762 | $ | (16,298,762 | ) | |||
| Renaissance International IPO ETF | 42,605 | (42,605 | ) | |||||
For the year ended September 30, 2025, the Renaissance IPO ETF and the Renaissance International IPO ETF reclassified non-taxable security gain/loss realized on the in-kind redemption of Creation Units (Note 4) as an increase to paid-in-capital in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities in the amounts of $16,616,376 and $93,247 respectively.
3. FEES AND EXPENSES
A. MANAGEMENT FEE: The Advisor serves as investment advisor to the Funds pursuant to an investment management agreement between the Trust and the Advisor (the "Investment Management Agreement"). Under the Investment Management Agreement, the Advisor, subject to the supervision of the Board and in conformity with the stated investment policies of the Funds, manages the investment of the Funds' assets. The Advisor is responsible for placing purchase and sale orders and providing continuous supervision of the investment portfolio of the Funds.
Pursuant to a Supervision and Administrative Agreement between the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, and the Advisor, the Advisor oversees the operation of the Funds, provides or causes to be furnished the advisory, supervisory, administrative, distribution, transfer agency, custody and all other services necessary for the Funds to operate, and exercises day-to-day oversight over the Funds' service providers. Under the Supervision and Administrative Agreement, the Advisor also bears all the fees and expenses incurred in connection with its obligations under the Supervision and Administrative Agreement, including, but not limited to, the costs of various third-party services required by the Funds, including audit, certain custody, portfolio accounting, legal, transfer agency and printing costs, except those fees and expenses specifically assumed by the Trust on behalf of the Funds.

Renaissance IPO ETFs
Notes to financial statements
For the Year Ended September 30, 2025 (Continued)
Pursuant to the terms of each of the Investment Management Agreement and the Supervision and Administrative Agreement, the Trust has agreed to indemnify the Advisor for certain liabilities, including certain liabilities arising under the federal securities laws, unless such loss or liability results from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its duties or the reckless disregard of its obligations and duties. The Investment Management Agreement also provides that the Advisor may engage in other businesses, devote time and attention to any other business, whether of a similar or dissimilar nature, and render investment advisory services to others.
As compensation for its services, the Advisor is paid a monthly management fee for providing investment advisory, supervisory, administrative and other services the Funds require under an all-in fee structure based on a percentage of the Funds' average daily net assets at the annual rate of 0.60% for Renaissance IPO ETF and 0.80% for Renaissance International IPO ETF.
The Funds also bear certain other expenses, which are specifically excluded from being covered under the management fee and the Supervision and Administrative Agreement ("Excluded Expenses") and may vary and will affect the total level of expenses paid by the Funds. Such Excluded Expenses include taxes, brokerage fees, commissions and other transaction expenses, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest and extraordinary expenses (such as litigation and indemnification expenses).
B. DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICING FEES: Foreside Fund Services, LLC (the "Distributor") serves as the distributor of the Shares of the Funds. The Board of Trustees of the Trust has adopted a distribution and services plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b -1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Plan, the Funds are authorized to pay distribution fees in connection with the sale and distribution of their Shares and pay service fees in connection with the provision of ongoing services to shareholders and the maintenance of shareholder accounts in an amount up to 0.25% of the Funds' average daily net assets each year. No Rule 12b-1 fees are currently paid by the Funds, and there are no current plans to impose these fees. However, in the event Rule 12b-1 fees are charged in the future, because these fees are paid out of the Funds' assets on an ongoing basis, these fees will increase the cost of your investment in the Funds.
4. SHAREHOLDER TRANSACTIONS: The Funds issue and redeem Shares at NAV only in a large specified number of Shares each called a "Creation Unit," or multiples thereof. Creation Units are sold to and from institutional brokers through participation agreements. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, Shares of the Funds are not redeemable. Such transactions generally consist of the in-kind deposit of a designated portfolio of equity securities (the "Deposit Securities") that comprise the Index and an amount of cash computed as described below (the "Cash Component") or, as permitted or required by the Funds, of cash. The Cash Component together with the Deposit Securities, as applicable, are referred to as the "Fund Deposit," which represents the minimum initial and subsequent investment amount for Shares. The Cash Component represents the difference between the NAV of a Creation Unit and the market value of Deposit Securities and may include a Dividend Equivalent Payment. The "Dividend Equivalent Payment" enables the Funds to make a complete distribution of dividends on the next dividend payment date, and is an amount equal, on a per Creation Unit basis, to the dividends on all the securities held by the Funds ("Fund Securities") with ex-dividend dates within the accumulation year for such distribution (the "Accumulation Year"), net of expenses and liabilities for such year, as if all of the Fund Securities had been held by the Trust for the entire Accumulation Year. The Accumulation Year begins on the ex-dividend date for the Funds and ends on the next ex-dividend date. Transactions in capital shares for the Funds are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
A fixed transaction fee of $300 per Creation Unit for the Renaissance IPO ETF and $750 per Creation Unit for the Renaissance International IPO ETF, regardless of the number of Creation Units that are created or redeemed on the same day, is charged to the institutional broker creating or redeeming Creation Units. An additional variable fee may be charged for certain transactions. Variable transaction fees are received by the Trust and are used to defray trading costs. These amounts are included in Other Capital on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. Fixed transaction fees are received by the Custodian.
For the year ended September 30, 2025, the Renaissance IPO ETF had in-kind contributions of $70,629,674 and in-kind redemptions of $64,235,242. For the year ended September 30, 2025, the Renaissance International IPO ETF had in-kind contributions of $0 and in-kind redemptions of $634,445.
The in-kind contributions and in-kind redemptions shown above may not agree with the Fund Share Transactions on the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The amounts shown above represent the accumulation of each Fund's daily net shareholder transactions while the Statements of Changes in Net Assets reflect gross shareholder transactions including any cash component of the transaction.

5. INDEMNIFICATION: Under the Funds' organizational documents, their officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties for the Funds. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into contracts with vendors that contain a variety of representations and warranties that provide general indemnification. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the risk of loss due to these warranties appears to be remote.
6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS: The length of time the Funds have held a particular security is not generally a consideration in investment decisions. A change in the securities held by each Fund is known as "portfolio turnover." The Funds may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities to achieve their investment objective, including, without limitation, to reflect changes in the component securities of the Index, such as reconstitutions or additions or deletions of component securities. To the extent that Creation Unit purchases from and redemptions by the Funds are effected in cash, frequent purchases and redemptions may increase the rate of portfolio turnover. High portfolio turnover involves correspondingly greater expenses to the Funds, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. Such sales may also result in realization of taxable capital gains, including short-term capital gains (which are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates). The trading costs and tax effects associated with portfolio turnover may adversely affect the Funds' performance. The portfolio turnover rates are reported in the Financial Highlights.
For the year ended September 30, 2025, the Renaissance IPO ETF made purchases with a cost of $140,908,194 and sales with proceeds of $140,815,672 of investment securities (excluding short-term securities and in-kind transactions of $70,629,674 in purchases and $64,235,242 in sales) and the Renaissance International IPO ETF made purchases with a cost of $2,979,022 and sales with proceeds of $2,992,067 of investment securities (excluding short-term securities and in-kind transactions of $0 in purchases and $634,445 in sales).
7. SECURITIES LENDING: The Funds may lend their portfolio securities to brokers, dealers and other financial institutions desiring to borrow securities to complete transactions and for other purposes. In connection with such loans, the Funds receive liquid collateral equal to at least 102% for U.S. securities and 105% for international securities of the value of the portfolio securities being loaned. This collateral is marked-to-market on a daily basis. Although the Funds will receive collateral in connection with all loans of its securities holdings, the Funds would be exposed to a risk of loss should a borrower fail to return the borrowed securities (e.g., the loaned securities may have appreciated beyond the value of the collateral held by the Funds) or become insolvent. The Funds may pay fees to the party arranging the loan of securities. In addition, the Funds will bear the risk of loss of any cash collateral that it invests. The Funds will then invest the cash collateral received in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Government Money Market Portfolio, and record a liability for the return of the collateral, during the year the securities are on loan. The Funds are subject to a lending limit of 33⅓% of total assets (including the value of collateral).
The loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Funds. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the lender securities identical to the loaned securities. Should the borrower of the securities fail to return loaned securities, the Funds have the right to repurchase the securities using the collateral in the open market.
The borrower pays fees at the Funds' direction to the lending agent. The lending agent may retain a portion of the fees and interest earned on the cash collateral invested as compensation for its services. Investments made with the cash collateral are disclosed on the Schedules of Investments. The lending fees and the Funds' portion of the interest income earned on the cash collateral are included on the Statements of Operations as securities lending income, net of rebates received or paid to borrowers.
See the Portfolio of Investments for information about the value of the securities on loan and their related collateral. The loaned securities are subject to enforceable netting arrangements and as of September 30, 2025, the value of the related collateral exceeded the value of the securities loaned.

8. PRINCIPAL RISKS: Investors in the Funds should be willing to accept a high degree of volatility in the price of the Funds' Shares and the possibility of significant losses. An investment in the Funds involves a substantial degree of risk. The Funds are subject to the principal investment risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the Funds' NAV, trading price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objective. An investment in a Fund is not a deposit with a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Therefore, you should consider carefully the following risks before investing in the Funds. In the normal course of business the Funds trade financial instruments and enter into financial transactions where risk of potential loss exists due to such things as changes in the market (market risk) or failure or inability of the other party to a transaction to perform (credit and counterparty risk). See below for a detailed description of selected principal risks. For a more comprehensive list of potential risks the Funds may be subject to, please see the Funds' Prospectus.
A. MARKET RISK. The prices of the securities in the Funds are subject to the risk associated with investing in the securities market, including general economic conditions and sudden and unpredictable drops in value. An investment in the Funds may lose money. In addition, regional, national or global events such as regulatory changes, recessions, banking instability, shifts in monetary or trade policies could have a significant negative impact on securities markets and the Funds' investments. Any of these events may lead to unexpected suspensions or closures of securities exchanges, business disruptions and closures, and reduced or disrupted operations for the Funds' service providers or issuers in which the Funds invest. Government intervention in markets may impact interest rates, market volatility and security pricing.
B. CONCENTRATION RISK. A Fund's assets may be concentrated in a particular sector or sectors or industry or group of industries to the extent its Index concentrates in a particular sector or sectors or industry or group of industries. The Funds may be subject to the risk that economic, political or other conditions that have a negative effect on that sector or industry will negatively impact the Funds to a greater extent than if the Funds' assets were invested in a wider variety of sectors or industries.
C. SECURITIES LENDING RISK. The Funds may engage in securities lending. Securities lending involves the risk that the Fund may lose money because the borrower of the Funds' loaned securities fails to return the securities in a timely manner or at all. The Funds could also lose money in the event of a decline in the value of the collateral provided for the loaned securities or a decline in the value of any investments made with cash collateral. These events could also trigger adverse tax consequences for the Funds.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS: The Funds are required to recognize in the financial statements the effects of all subsequent events that provide additional evidence about conditions that existed at the date of the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. For non-recognized subsequent events that must be disclosed to keep the financial statements from being misleading, the Funds are required to disclose the nature of the event as well as an estimate of their financial effect, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Management has determined that there were no subsequent events to report through the issuance of these financial statements.
