Claymore Exchange-Traded Fund Trust 1 | Guggenheim BulletShares 2024 High Yield Corporate Bond ETF

Guggenheim BulletShares 2024 High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (BSJO)

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE 

The Guggenheim BulletShares 2024 High Yield Corporate Bond ETF (the "Fund") seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before the Fund’s fees and expenses, of a high yield corporate bond index called the Nasdaq BulletShares® USD High Yield Corporate Bond 2024 Index (the “High Yield 2024 Index” or the “Index”).

FEES AND EXPENSES OF THE FUND 

This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund (“Shares”). Investors purchasing Shares in the secondary market may be subject to costs (including customary brokerage commissions) charged by their broker.

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment)

EXAMPLE

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the costs of investing in other funds. The Example does not take into account brokerage commissions that you may pay when purchasing or selling Shares.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your Shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER 

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. As the Fund commenced operations on or about the date of this Prospectus, no history of the portfolio turnover rate is available.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES 

The Fund, using a “passive” or “indexing” investment approach, seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before the Fund’s fees and expenses, of the High Yield 2024 Index. The High Yield 2024 Index is a rules-based index (i.e., an index constructed using specified criteria) comprised of, as of August 31, 2016, approximately 135 high yield corporate bonds (which also may be known as "junk bonds") with effective maturities in the year 2024. The High Yield 2024 Index is designed to represent the performance of a held-to-maturity portfolio of U.S. dollar-denominated high yield corporate bonds with effective maturities in the year 2024. The effective maturity of an eligible corporate bond is determined by its actual maturity or, in the case of callable securities, the effective maturity of the security is determined in accordance with a rules-based methodology developed by Accretive Asset Management, LLC (“Accretive” or the “Index Provider”). The actual maturity of a callable security may change because an issuer of a callable security may "call" or repay the amount owed under the security before its stated maturity. Accretive is affiliated with Guggenheim Funds Investment Advisors, LLC, the Fund's investment adviser (the "Investment Adviser"), and Guggenheim Funds Distributors, LLC, the Fund's distributor (the "Distributor"). As of the date of this Prospectus, the expected duration of the High Yield 2024 Index, and thus of the Fund, is 5 to 8 years. Each year, as the Fund moves closer to its designated year of maturity, the Fund's expected duration will become shorter.

The Fund has a designated year of maturity of 2024 and will terminate on or about December 31, 2024. In connection with such termination, the Fund will make a cash distribution to then-current shareholders of its net assets after making appropriate provisions for any liabilities of the Fund. The Fund does not seek to distribute any predetermined amount at maturity. The Fund will invest at least 80% of its total assets in component securities that comprise the Index. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in high yield securities, which are debt securities that are rated below investment grade by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, or are unrated securities that the Investment Adviser believes are of comparable quality. There are no minimum credit rating requirements for securities that the Fund may purchase; however, the Fund will not purchase securities that are in default. The Fund has adopted a policy that requires the Fund to provide shareholders with at least 60 days notice prior to any material change in this policy or the Index. In the last twelve months of operation, when the bonds held by the Fund mature, the Fund’s portfolio will transition to cash and cash equivalents, including without limitation U.S. Treasury Bills and investment grade commercial paper. The Fund will terminate on or about December 31, 2024 without requiring additional approval by the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Claymore Exchange-Traded Fund Trust (the "Trust") or Fund shareholders. The Board may change the termination date to an earlier or later date without shareholder approval if a majority of the Board determines the change to be in the best interest of the Fund. The Board may change the Fund’s investment strategy and other policies without shareholder approval, except as otherwise indicated.

The Fund expects to use a sampling approach in seeking to achieve its investment objective. Sampling means that the Investment Adviser uses quantitative analysis to select securities from the Index universe to obtain a representative sample of securities that resemble the Index in terms of key risk factors, performance attributes and other characteristics. These characteristics include maturity, credit quality, sector, duration and other financial characteristics of fixed income instruments. The quantity of holdings in the Fund will be based on a number of factors, including the asset size of the Fund, potential transaction costs in acquiring particular securities, the anticipated impact of particular Index components on the performance of the Index and the availability of particular securities in the secondary market. However, the Fund may use replication to seek to achieve its objective if practicable. A replication strategy involves generally investing in all of the securities in the Index with the same weights as the Index. There may also be instances when the Investment Adviser may choose to overweight another security in the Index or purchase (or sell) securities not in the Index which the Investment Adviser believes are appropriate to substitute for one or more Index components in seeking to accurately track the Index, such as: (i) regulatory requirements possibly affecting the Fund’s ability to hold a security in the Index or (ii) liquidity concerns possibly affecting the Fund’s ability to purchase or sell a security in the Index. In addition, from time to time, securities are added to or removed from the Index. The Fund may sell securities that are represented in the Index or purchase securities that are not yet represented in the Index in anticipation of their removal from or addition to the Index pursuant to scheduled reconstitutions and rebalancings of the Index. The Fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., invest 25% or more of its assets) in securities issued by companies whose principal business activities are in the same industry or group of industries to the extent the Index is so concentrated. As of August 31, 2016, the telecommunications and technology sectors represented a substantial portion of the Index.

PRINCIPAL RISKS 

Investors should consider the principal risks associated with investing in the Fund, which are summarized below. The value of an investment in the Fund will fluctuate and you could lose money by investing in the Fund. The Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

Asset Class Risk—The securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform the returns of other securities or indices that track other industries, markets, asset classes or sectors.

Concentration Risk—If the Index concentrates in an industry or group of industries, the Fund’s investments will be concentrated accordingly. In such event, the value of the Fund’s Shares may rise and fall more than the value of shares of a fund that invests in securities of companies in a broader range of industries.

Credit Risk—The Fund could lose money if the issuer or guarantor of a fixed-income instrument or a counterparty to a transaction is unable or unwilling, or perceived to be unable or unwilling, to pay interest or repay principal on time or defaults. The issuer, guarantor or counterparty could also suffer a rapid decrease in credit quality rating, which would adversely affect the volatility of the value and liquidity of the instrument.

Declining Yield Risk—During the final year of the Fund’s operations, as the bonds held by the Fund mature and the Fund’s portfolio transitions to cash and cash equivalents, the Fund’s yield will generally tend to move toward the yield of cash and cash equivalents and thus may be lower than the yields of the bonds previously held by the Fund and/or prevailing yields for bonds in the market.

Extension Risk—During periods of rising interest rates, an issuer may exercise its right to pay principal on an obligation later than expected, resulting in a decrease in the value of the obligation and in a decline in the Fund’s income.

Fluctuation of Yield and Liquidation Amount Risk—The Fund, unlike a direct investment in a bond that has a level coupon payment and a fixed payment at maturity, will make distributions of income that vary over time. Unlike a direct investment in bonds, the breakdown of returns between Fund distributions and liquidation proceeds are not predictable at the time of your investment. For example, at times during the Fund’s existence, it may make distributions at a greater (or lesser) rate than the coupon payments received on the Fund’s portfolio, which will result in the Fund returning a lesser (or greater) amount on liquidation than would otherwise be the case. The rate of Fund distribution payments may adversely affect the tax characterization of your returns from an investment in the Fund relative to a direct investment in corporate bonds. If the amount you receive as liquidation proceeds upon the Fund’s termination is higher or lower than your cost basis, you may experience a gain or loss for tax purposes.

Foreign Issuers Risk—The Fund may invest in U.S. registered, dollar-denominated bonds of foreign corporations, which have different risks than investing in U.S. companies. These include differences in accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, the possibility of expropriation or confiscatory taxation, adverse changes in investment or exchange control regulations, political instability which could affect U.S. investments in foreign countries, and potential restrictions of the flow of international capital.

High Yield and Unrated Securities Risk—High yield, below investment grade and unrated high risk debt securities (which also may be known as "junk bonds") may present additional risks because these securities may be less liquid, and therefore more difficult to value accurately and sell at an advantageous price or time, present more credit risk than investment grade bonds and subject to greater risk of default. The price of high yield securities tends to be subject to greater volatility due to issuer-specific operating results and outlook and to real or perceived adverse economic and competitive industry conditions.

Income Risk—The Fund's income may decline during period of falling interest rates or when the Fund experiences defaults on debt securities it holds. The amount and rate of distributions that the Fund's shareholders receive are affected by the income that the Fund receives from its portfolio holdings. If the income is reduced, distributions by the Fund to shareholders may be less.

Interest Rate Risk—Investments in fixed-income securities are subject to the possibility that interest rates could rise sharply, causing the value of the Fund’s securities and share price to decline. The risks associated with rising interest rates are heightened given the historically low interest rate environment. Fixed-income securities with longer durations are subject to more volatility than those with shorter durations.

Issuer-Specific Changes Risk—The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than the market as a whole and can perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. The value of securities of smaller issuers can be more volatile than those of larger issuers.

Liquidity and Valuation Risk—In certain circumstances, it may be difficult for the Fund to purchase and sell particular investments within a reasonable time at a fair price, or the price at which it has been valued by the Investment Adviser for purposes of the Fund’s net asset value ("NAV"), causing the Fund to be less liquid and unable to realize what the Investment Adviser believes should be the price of the investment.

Market Price Risk—Shares are listed for trading on NYSE Arca, Inc. ("NYSE Arca") and are bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The market prices of Shares may fluctuate continuously during trading hours, in some cases materially, in response to changes in the NAV and supply and demand for Shares, among other factors. Although it is expected that the market price of Shares typically will remain closely correlated to the NAV, the market price will generally differ from the NAV because of timing reasons, supply and demand imbalances and other factors. As a result, the trading prices of Shares may deviate significantly from NAV during certain periods, especially those of market volatility. The Investment Adviser cannot predict whether Shares will trade above (premium), below (discount) or at their NAV. Thus, an investor may pay more than NAV when buying Shares in the secondary market and receive less than NAV when selling Shares in the secondary market.

Market Risk—The value of, or income generated by, the securities held by the Fund may fluctuate rapidly and unpredictably as a result of factors affecting individual companies or changing economic, political, social or financial market conditions throughout the world because of the interconnected global economies and financial markets.

Non-Correlation Risk—The Fund’s return may not match the return of the Index for a number of reasons. For example, the Fund incurs a number of operating expenses not applicable to the Index, and incurs costs in buying and selling securities, especially when rebalancing the Fund’s securities holdings to reflect changes in the composition of the Index. Since the Index constituents may vary on a monthly basis, the Fund’s costs associated with rebalancing may be greater than those incurred by other exchange-traded funds ("ETFs") that track indices whose composition changes less frequently. In addition, the performance of the Fund and the Index may vary due to asset valuation differences and differences between the Fund's portfolio and the Index resulting from legal restrictions, cash flows or operational inefficiencies.

Non-Diversification Risk—The Fund is considered non-diversified because it may invest a large portion of its assets in a small number of issuers. As a result, the Fund is more susceptible to risks associated with those issuers and the Fund may experience greater losses and volatility than a more diversified portfolio.

Passive Management Risk—Unlike many investment companies, the Fund is not “actively” managed. Therefore, it would not necessarily sell a security because the security’s issuer was in financial trouble or defaulted on its obligations under the security, or whose credit rating was downgraded, unless that security is removed from the Index. In addition, the Fund will not otherwise take defensive positions in declining markets unless such positions are reflected in the Index.

Prepayment Risk—Securities subject to prepayment risk generally offer less potential for gains when interest rates decline, because issuers of the securities may be able to prepay the principal due on the securities. These securities generally offer less potential for gains when interest rates decline and may offer a greater potential for loss when interest rates rise.

Regulatory and Legal Risk—U.S. and other regulators and governmental agencies may implement additional regulations and legislators may pass new laws that affect the investments held by the Fund, the strategies used by the Fund or the level of regulation applying to the Fund. These may impact the investment strategies, performance, costs and operations of the Fund.

Restricted Securities Risk—Restricted securities generally cannot be sold to the public and may involve a high degree of business, financial and liquidity risk, which may result in substantial losses to the Fund.

Risk of Cash Transactions—In certain instances, unlike most ETFs, the Fund may effect creations and redemptions for cash, rather than in-kind. As a result, an investment in the Fund may be less tax-efficient than an investment in a more conventional ETF.

Technology Sector Risk—Stocks of companies involved in the technology sector may be very volatile.

Telecommunications Sector Risk—The telecommunications sector may be affected by extensive government regulation, industry competition and obsolescence of telecommunications products and services due to technological advancement.
