EGShares Emerging Markets Core ETF

EGShares Emerging Markets Core ETF

Investment Objective

The Fund seeks investment results that correspond (before fees and expenses) to the price and yield performance of the S&P Emerging Markets Core Index (the “Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index”).

Fees and Expenses

The following table describes the fees and expenses you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Fund (“Shares”). You may also incur customary brokerage charges when buying or selling Fund Shares.

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

Distribution and/or Service (12b-1) Fees	[1]	none
Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses	[2]	0.70%

Example

The following example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other funds. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of the Shares at the end of those periods. This example assumes that the Fund provides a return of 5% a year and that operating expenses remain the same. This example does not include the brokerage commission that you may pay to buy and sell exchange-traded Shares of the Fund. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs would be:

Expense Example (USD $)	1 Year	3 Years	5 Years	10 Years
EGShares Emerging Markets Core ETF	72	224	390	871

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities or other instruments. A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund 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. For the period from October 16, 2012 (commencement of operations) through the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 3% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

The Fund is an exchange-traded fund (“ETF”). The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by attempting to replicate the portfolio of the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index through investments in equity securities, including common shares traded on local exchanges, American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) and Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”). ADRs and GDRs represent ownership interests in shares of foreign companies that are held in financial institution custodial accounts, and are traded on exchanges in the United States and around the world.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets in emerging market companies included in the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index and generally expects to be substantially invested at such times, with at least 95% of its net assets invested in these securities. The Fund invests in the constituent companies of the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index, which may include small and medium capitalized companies (“small cap” and “mid cap” companies, respectively) domiciled in emerging market countries having a market capitalization of at least $1 billion at the time of purchase. The Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index is a stock market index comprised of 116 leading companies that S&P Dow Jones Indices determines to be representative of all industries in emerging market countries. Component securities are equally weighted unless included in a country that is subject to the 15% country exposure cap, in which case the component securities in that country are weighted equally pro rata to the 15% cap.

The Fund intends to replicate the constituent securities of the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index as closely as possible using ADRs, GDRs or ordinary local shares. In certain circumstances, when it may not be possible or practicable to fully implement a replication strategy, the Fund may utilize a “representative sampling” strategy whereby the Fund would hold a significant number of the component securities of the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index, but may not track the index with the same degree of accuracy as would an investment vehicle replicating the entire index.

The Fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index is concentrated. The Fund is non-diversified, which means that it can invest a greater percentage of its assets in any one issuer than a diversified fund can.

Based on the number of Indian securities that are included in the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index, the Fund may invest its assets in a wholly owned subsidiary in Mauritius (the “Subsidiary”), which in turn, invests at least 90% of its assets in Indian securities, and the Fund may also invest to some extent in ADRs and GDRs. This investment structure enables the Fund to obtain benefits under a tax treaty between Mauritius and India.

Principal Risks

Like all investments, investing in the Fund entails risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest.

Equity Securities The price of one or more of the equity securities in the Fund’s portfolio may fall. Many factors can adversely affect an equity security’s performance, including both general financial market conditions and factors related to a specific company, industry or geographic region.

Market Price Variance As an ETF, the Fund’s Shares generally trade in the secondary market on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “Exchange”) at market prices that change throughout the day. Although it is expected that the market price of Fund Shares will approximate the Fund’s net asset value per Share (“NAV”), there may be times when the market price and the NAV vary significantly. You may pay more than NAV when you buy Shares of the Fund on the Exchange, and you may receive less than NAV when you sell those Shares on the Exchange.

Non-Correlation The Fund’s return may not match the return of the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index. The Fund incurs a number of operating expenses that are not reflected in the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index, including the cost of buying and selling securities and of maintaining the Subsidiary. If the Fund is not fully invested, holding cash balances may prevent it from tracking the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index.

Market Liquidity for Fund Shares As an ETF, Fund Shares are not individually redeemable securities. There is no assurance that an active trading market for Fund Shares will develop or be maintained. Active market trading of Fund Shares may cause more frequent creations or redemptions of Creation Units, which, if not conducted in-kind, could increase the rate of portfolio turnover and the Fund’s tracking error versus the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index.

Non-Diversification The Fund is non-diversified and, as a result, may have greater volatility than diversified funds. Because the Fund may invest a larger percentage of its assets in securities of a single company than a diversified fund, the performance of one company’s securities can have a substantial impact on the Fund’s Share price.

Concentration The Fund will concentrate in industries to the same extent as the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index. The Fund may be adversely affected by increased price volatility of securities in those industries, and may be more susceptible to adverse economic, market, political or regulatory occurrences affecting those industries.

Foreign Investment Foreign investments may be more volatile because of economic or political developments, public health and safety issues, demographic changes, market inefficiencies, lack of regulatory oversight, or a higher risk that essential investment information may be incomplete, unavailable or inaccurate. Restrictions on currency trading may be imposed by foreign countries, which may adversely affect the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities.

Emerging Markets Investments in emerging market securities are subject to even greater risks than for foreign investments generally, including increased risks of: illiquidity of securities; price volatility; inflation or deflation; restrictions on foreign investment; nationalization; higher taxation; economic and political instability; pervasive corruption and crime; less governmental regulation; and less developed legal systems.

Foreign Currency The value of an investment denominated in a foreign currency could change significantly as foreign currencies strengthen or weaken relative to the U.S. dollar. Risks related to foreign currencies also include those related to economic or political developments, market inefficiencies or a higher risk that essential investment information may be incomplete, unavailable or inaccurate.

Small Cap and Mid Cap Companies Small cap and mid cap companies may have greater volatility in price than the stocks of large capitalization companies due to limited product lines or resources or a dependency upon a particular market niche.

Liquidity In certain circumstances, the Fund might not be able to dispose of certain holdings quickly or at prices that represent true market value in the judgment of EGA, preventing the Fund from tracking the Emerging Markets Core Underlying Index.

Depositary Receipts Changes in foreign currency exchange rates will affect the value of ADRs or GDRs and, therefore, may affect the value of the Fund’s portfolio. There is no guarantee that a financial institution will continue to sponsor an ADR or GDR, or that the depositary receipts will continue to trade on an exchange, either of which could adversely affect the liquidity, availability and pricing of the depositary receipt.

Treaty/Tax Risk The Fund and the Subsidiary rely on the Double Tax Avoidance Agreement between India and Mauritius for relief from certain Indian taxes. Treaty renegotiation or legislative changes in the requirements to establish residency in Mauritius may result in higher taxes and lower returns for the Fund.
