Below you will find information about the prior performance of the Composite. The total asset size of all the accounts comprising the Composite as of December 31, 2020 was approximately $2.93 billion. The performance information has been provided by UBS and relates to the historical performance of the Composite, as measured against a broad-based market index, the MSCI China A Onshore Index (Net).

You should not assume that the Fund will have the same performance as the Composite. The performance of the Fund may be better or worse than the performance of the Composite due to, among other things, differences in brokerage commissions, account expenses, including management fees, the size of positions taken in relation to account size and diversification of securities, timing of purchases and sales, and availability of cash for new investments between the Fund and the accounts in the Composite.
