First Trust Advisors L.P., the Funds’ investment advisor, along with its
affiliate, First Trust Portfolios L.P., are privately-held companies
which provide a variety of investment services, including asset
management and financial advisory services, with collective assets under
management or supervision of approximately $105 billion as of November
30, 2014, through unit investment trusts, exchange-traded funds,
closed-end funds, mutual funds and separate managed accounts.
You should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and
expenses of a Fund before investing. Prospectuses for the Funds contain
this and other important information and are available free of charge by
calling toll-free at 1-800-621-1675 or visiting www.ftportfolios.com.
A prospectus should be read carefully before investing.
Past performance is no assurance of future results. Principal Risk
Factors: A Fund’s shares will change in value, and you could lose money
by investing in a Fund. An investment in a Fund involves risk similar to
those of investing in any fund of equity securities traded on exchanges.
The risks of investing in each Fund are spelled out in its prospectus,
shareholder report, and other regulatory filings.
A Fund that is concentrated in securities of companies in a certain
sector or industry involves additional risks, including limited
diversification. A Fund which invests in foreign securities may be
subject to additional risks not associated with domestic securities.
Such risks may be heightened in the case of securities of emerging
markets countries. An Index ETF seeks investment results that correspond
generally to the price and yield of an index. You should anticipate that
the value of an Index Fund’s shares will decline, more or less, in
correlation with any decline in the value of the index. An Index Fund’s
return may not match the return of the index. Unlike a Fund, the indices
do not actually hold a portfolio of securities and therefore do not
incur the expenses incurred by a Fund.
An actively managed ETF is subject to management risk because it is an
actively managed portfolio. In managing such a Fund’s investment
portfolio, the portfolio managers will apply investment techniques and
risk analyses that may not have the desired result. There can be no
guarantee that a Fund will meet its investment objective. Preferred
Securities are subject to credit risk, interest rate risk and income
risk. Credit Risk may be heightened if a Fund invests in “high yield” or
“junk” debt. The First Trust Senior Loan Fund is subject to credit risk,
currency risk, high yield securities risk, interest rate risk,
prepayment risk and senior loans risk. The First Trust Tactical High
Yield ETF is subject to convertible bonds risk, credit risk, distressed
securities risk, high yield securities risk, interest rate risk, loans
risk, prepayment risk and short sale risk. The First Trust Preferred
Securities and Income ETF is subject to financial company risk, high
yield securities risk, income risk, preferred securities risk and REIT
risk. The First Trust High Income ETF is subject to cash transaction
risk, depositary receipts risk, derivatives risk, market risk, new fund
risk, diversification risk, and non-U.S. securities risk. The First
Trust Low Beta Income ETF is subject to cash transaction risk,
depositary receipts risk, derivatives risk, market risk, new fund risk,
non-diversification risk and non-U.S. securities risk. The First Trust
North American Energy Infrastructure Fund is subject to concentration
risk, currency risk, depositary receipts risk, derivatives risk, energy
infrastructure company risk, geographic risk, interest rate risk, MLP
risk, non-diversification risk, and non-U.S. securities risk. The First
Trust Managed Municipal ETF is subject to alternative minimum tax risk,
call risk, cash transaction risk, credit risk, high yield securities
risk, income risk, municipal lease obligation risk, non-diversification
risk, political and economic risk, tax risk, and zero coupon bonds risk.
The First Trust Enhanced Short Maturity ETF is subject to risk
associated with investing in mortgage-related and other asset back
securities, interest rate risk, prepayment risk, credit risk, call risk,
cash transaction risk, fixed income securities risk, floating rate loan
risk, income risk, investment company risk, new fund risk, non-U.S.
securities risk, and volatility risk. The First Trust Strategic Income
ETF is subject to covered call risk, credit risk, currency risk,
depositary receipts risk, derivatives risk, energy infrastructure
companies risk, equity securities risk, financial companies risk, fixed
income risk, high yield securities risk, illiquid securities risk,
income risk, interest rate risk, investment companies risk, MLP risk,
mortgage securities risk, emerging markets risk, preferred securities
risk, senior loan risk, and smaller companies risk. The First Trust Low
Duration Mortgage Opportunities ETF is subject to cash transaction risk,
counterparty risk, credit risk, high yield securities risk, illiquid
securities risk, income risk, interest rate risk, management risk,
market risk, mortgage-related investments risk, new fund risk,
non-diversification risk, prepayment risk, repurchase agreement risk,
short sales risk and U.S. government and agency securities risk. The
First Trust Emerging Markets Local Currency Bond ETF is subject to call
risk, cash transactions risk, credit risk, currency exchange rate risk,
currency risk, derivatives risk, emerging markets risk, global
depositary notes risk, high yield securities risk, illiquid securities
risk, income risk, interest rate risk, management risk, market risk, new
fund risk, non-diversification risk, non-U.S. securities risk and
sovereign debt risk.
Investors buying or selling Fund shares on the secondary market may
incur brokerage commissions. Investors who sell Fund shares may receive
less than the share’s net asset value. Unlike shares of open-end mutual
funds, investors are generally not able to purchase Fund shares directly
from the Fund and individual shares are not redeemable. However,
specified large blocks of shares called “creation units” can be
purchased from, or redeemed to, the Fund.
