Strategy Narrative [Text Block] | The Fund is an actively managed exchange-traded fund that seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market circumstances, at least 80% of its total assets in equity securities of communication services-related companies or instruments that provide exposure to communication services-related companies as determined by the Adviser. For purposes of this policy, the term “assets” means net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes. Such companies may include those in the following industries: diversified telecommunication services; wireless telecommunication services; media; entertainment; and interactive media & services. The Adviser utilizes a discretionary investment process that favors investments in communication services-related companies that are well-established market leaders. The Adviser takes into consideration characteristics such as industry dominance, large market capitalization, high growth, and strong operating performance. The Fund may gain exposure to these companies through holdings in publicly traded common stocks, exchange-traded funds that provide exposure to the various segments of the communication services sector and derivative instruments, such as total return swaps on individual securities. The Fund’s exposure to such derivatives will generally not exceed 20% of the notional value of the portfolio. Communication services companies in the Fund are expected to be U.S. listed and may include large and medium-capitalization companies. The Fund’s 80% investment policy is non-fundamental and may be changed without shareholder approval upon 60 days’ prior written notice to shareholders. The Fund is classified as a non-diversified fund under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Investment Company Act of 1940") and, therefore, may invest a greater percentage of its assets in a particular issuer. The Fund will concentrate its investments in any one industry or a group of industries within the communication services sector.
