IMPORTANT: Investment involves risk, including the loss of principal. Investors should refer to the Prospectus and Key Facts Statement of the iShares NASDAQ 100 Index ETF (the “ETF”) for details, including the risk factors. If you are in any doubt, you should consult your stockbroker, bank manager, solicitor, accountant or other financial adviser for independent financial advice.  Investors should not base investment decisions on this marketing material alone. Investors should note:
• The ETF aims to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, closely correspond to the performance of the NASDAQ 100 Index.
• The ETF’s investments are concentrated in a specific market, i.e. the US. The value of the ETF may be more volatile than that of a fund having a more diverse portfolio of investments. The value of the ETF may be more susceptible to adverse economic, political, policy, foreign exchange, liquidity, tax, legal or regulatory event affecting the US market.
• Due to the ETF’s concentration in companies in the technology sector, the price volatility of the ETF may be greater than that of ETFs tracking more broad-based indices.
• All units will receive distributions in the base currency, USD, only. In the event that a unitholder has no USD account, the unitholder may have to bear the fees and charges associated with the conversion of such dividend distributions from USD to HKD or any other currency; and (ii) the other bank or financial institutional fees and charges associated with the handling of the distribution payment. Unitholders are advised to check with their brokers regarding arrangements for distribution.
• Investors may be subject to additional costs or losses associated with foreign currency fluctuations between the base currency and the HKD trading currency. 
• The ETF may be subject to tracking error risk, which is the risk that its performance may not track that of the underlying index exactly.
• The units of the ETF are traded on the SEHK. The trading price of the units is subject to market forces and may trade at a substantial premium or discount to the ETF’s NAV, which may also increase due to the differences in trading hours between the NASDAQ and the SEHK. As the NASDAQ may be open when units of the ETF are not priced, the securities’ values in the ETF may change on days when investors cannot trade the units.
• The price of units traded in different counters may deviate significantly. If there is a suspension of the inter-counter transfer of units between the counters and/or any limitation on the level of services provided by brokers and CCASS participants, unitholders can only trade their units in one counter.
• The Manager may at its discretion pay distributions out of capital, or effectively out of capital, of the ETF. Payment of distributions out of capital or effectively out of capital amounts to a return or withdrawal of part of an investor’s original investment or from any capital gains attributable to that original investment. Any such distributions may result in an immediate reduction of the NAV per unit.
• The Fund may use derivatives for hedging and for investment purposes. However, usage for investment purposes will not be extensive. The Fund may suffer losses from its derivatives usage.
• The ETF is subject to securities lending transactions risks. In particular, the borrower may fail to return the securities in a timely manner and the value of the collateral may fall below the value of the securities lent out.
