You know the potential benefits of being invested in a recessionary market, but investors may not. That’s why we’ve created a new brochure, Returning to the Market (PDF). Use it to engage your clients in a discussion about getting back in the market.

Investing involves risks, including the loss of principal invested. Risks include stock market fluctuations due to business and economic developments. Share prices of small-capitalization companies tend to be more volatile because small companies often have narrower markets, limited financial resources and stocks that are not as actively traded as large-company stocks. Investing in large-cap stocks incurs the possibility of losses because their prices are sensitive to changes in current or expected earnings.

Please have your clients read and consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses for any fund carefully before investing. Remind them to contact you for a prospectus which contains this and other important information about the fund.
