The 361 Global Managed Futures Strategy Fund Class I shares was rated 4 stars for the 3-year period and 3 stars for the 5-year period among 95 and 80 funds, respectively, in the Managed Futures funds category. Ratings reflect fee waivers in effect; in their absence, ratings may have been lower. Morningstar Ratings™ are calculated for managed products including mutual funds with at least a three-year history. ETFs and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product’s monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns and 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns. © 2019 Morningstar. All rights reserved.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Futures prices can be very volatile. The small margin required for futures contracts magnifies the effect of market volatility and allows the loss from a contract potentially to exceed the Fund’s initial investment. With short contracts, the loss is theoretically unlimited since the appreciation of the underlying asset also is theoretically unlimited. Foreign investment entails additional risk from adverse changes in currency exchange rates, lax regulation, and potential market instability. Frequent trading by the Fund may reduce returns and increase the number of taxable transactions. Concentration of its portfolio in relatively few issuers may make the Fund more volatile than a diversified fund.

Volatility is represented by standard deviation. Standard deviation is a statistical measurement of performance fluctuations. Generally, the higher the standard deviation, the greater the expected volatility of returns. Drawdown is the peak-to-trough decline during a specific record period of an investment, fund or commodity. A drawdown is usually quoted as the percentage between the peak and the trough.
