Risk considerations

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. Past Performance does not guarantee future results. All financial investments involve an element of risk. Therefore, the value of the investment and the income from it will vary and the initial investment amount cannot be guaranteed.  

Carefully consider a fund’s objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. Contact your financial professional, visit www.PrincipalAM.com, or call sales support at 800-787-1621 for a prospectus, or summary prospectus if available, containing this and other information. Please read it carefully before investing.

Asset allocation and diversification do not ensure a profit or protect against a loss.

Fixed income investment options are subject to interest rate risk, and their value will decline as interest rates rise. Neither the principal bond investment options nor their yields are guaranteed by the U.S. government. Lower-rated securities are subject to additional credit and default risk.

Equity investments involve greater risk, including heightened volatility, than fixed income investments. Small and mid-cap stocks may have additional risks, including greater price volatility.

International and global investing involves greater risks such as currency fluctuations, political/social instability and differing accounting standards.

Investing in derivates entails specific risks relating to liquidity, leverage and credit, which may reduce returns and/or increase volatility.

Risks of preferred securities differ from risks inherent in other investments. In particular, in a bankruptcy preferred securities are senior to common stock but subordinate to other corporate debt.

Investing in ETFs involves risk, including possible loss of principal. ETFs are subject to risk similar to those of stocks, including those regarding short-selling and margin account maintenance. Investor shares are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply.

Unlike typical ETFs, there are indices that the Principal Active High Yield ETF or Principal Spectrum Preferred Securities Active ETF attempt to track or replicate. Thus, the ability of the Funds to achieve their objectives will depend on the effectiveness of the portfolio managers.
