    The opinions expressed herein represent the current, good faith views of the author(s) at the time of publication and are provided for limited purposes, are not definitive investment advice, and should not be relied on as such. Predictions, opinions, and other information contained herein are subject to change continually and without notice and may no longer be true after the date indicated. Any forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and Krane Funds Advisors, LLC (“KraneShares”) assumes no duty to and does not undertake to update forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to numerous assumptions, risks and uncertainties, which change over time. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements.

    Krane Model Portfolios are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how certain ETFs, including KraneShares ETFs, can potentially fit into an investor’s portfolio. The model portfolios do not represent investment advice or an investment recommendation by KraneShares. Financial professionals can use the model portfolios, together with other information, and their own independent judgment, as a resource to help build a portfolio or to aid in the development of investment advice for their clients. KraneShares does not have investment discretion over, or place trade orders for, any account derived from the Krane Model Portfolios by a financial professional. Accordingly, the holdings, performance, and other characteristics of any account derived from the Krane Model Portfolios by a financial professional may vary materially from the Krane Model Portfolios.

    The model portfolios cannot be invested in directly. The model portfolios are not funds or other investments. KraneShares offers separately managed accounts (SMAs), which are discretionary accounts managed by KraneShares for investors to represent a Krane Model Portfolio allocation strategy.

    KraneShares primarily allocates the Krane Model Portfolios to KraneShares ETFs; however, KraneShares may also allocate to ETFs managed by third-parties. As a result, Krane Model Portfolios typically include KraneShares ETFs notwithstanding the fact that there may be a similar third-party ETF with a higher rating, lower fees and expenses, or better performance. KraneShares will indirectly benefit from investments in KraneShares ETFs within the Krane Model Portfolios through fees paid by the KraneShares ETFs to KraneShares for advisory (and other) services. Therefore, KraneShares has an incentive to select KraneShares ETFs (including KraneShares ETFs with higher fees). This may result in Krane Model Portfolios that achieve a level of performance less favorable to the model portfolios, or reflect higher fees, than otherwise would be the case if KraneShares did not allocate to KraneShares ETFs.

    It should not be assumed that any investment identified has been or will be profitable. There can be no guarantee that similar investment opportunities will be available in the future or that the strategy will be able to exploit similar investment opportunities should they arise.

    Unless otherwise noted, gross performance is presented before the deduction of management fees, including fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds which, when deducted, would lower the returns shown. Net performance is presented “net” of all applicable management fees, including fees and expenses charged by the underlying funds.

    Using an asset allocation strategy does not guarantee a profit or protection against loss, and diversification does not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment losses. Index performance and volatility are materially different from that of any model portfolio. There is no assurance that investing in accordance with a model portfolio’s allocations will provide positive performance over any period. The model portfolios are provided “as-is,” without any warranty of any kind, express or implied. KraneShares may make updates to the recommended allocations that comprise the model portfolios from time to time; however, KraneShares assumes no duty to update the model portfolios on any given schedule. Third-parties, including financial professionals, have discretion in managing accounts derived from a Krane Model Portfolio. As a result, information and other marketing materials provided to you by KraneShares or any third party concerning a Krane Model Portfolio, including allocations, performance and other characteristics, may not be indicative of an investor’s actual experience from an account managed in accordance with a model portfolio’s strategy.

    Each financial professional making use of the model portfolios is solely responsible for making investment recommendations and/or decisions with respect to its clients without input from KraneShares, including with respect to investing in accordance with any model portfolio or any particular security. KraneShares is not acting in an investment advisory, fiduciary or quasifiduciary capacity to any financial professional or its client. This material should not serve as a primary basis for investment decisions. This material has been prepared without regard to the individual financial circumstances and objectives of any investor, and the appropriateness of a particular investment or strategy will depend on an investor’s individual circumstances and objectives. Investors and their financial professionals should consider the investors’ individual financial circumstances, investment time frame, risk tolerance level and investment goals.

    Index returns are for illustrative purposes only. Index performance returns do not reflect any management fees, transaction costs or expenses. The Index reflects the reinvestment of any cash distributions after deduction of any withholding tax using the maximum rate applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties. Indexes are unmanaged and one cannot invest directly in an index.

    Investors and their financial professionals should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of the ETFs underlying any model portfolio carefully before investing.
