DISCLOSURE
Global X NAVs are calculated using prices as of 4:00 PM Eastern Time.
The closing price is the Mid-Point between the Bid and Ask price as of the close of exchange.
Since the Fund’s Shares typically do not trade in the secondary market until several days after the Fund’s inception, for the period from inception to the first day of secondary market trading in Shares, the NAV of the Fund is used to calculate market returns.
Shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
Carefully consider the fund’s investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses. This and other information can be found in the fund’s prospectus. Click here for the prospectus. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
