7Investing in the market entails the risk of market volatility. The value of all types of investments may increase or decrease over varying time periods.

Because sustainability and impact criteria exclude some investments, investors may not be able to take advantage of the same opportunities or market trends as investors that do not use such criteria. Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss in a declining financial market.
