ETFs closely track the performance of an index and as such their value can go down as well as up and you may get back less than you invested. Also, past performance is not a reliable indicator of future performance. The value of an ETF may be affected by market values, interest rates, exchange rates, volatility, dividend yields and issuer credit ratings. These factors are interrelated in complex ways, and as a result, the effect of any one factor may be offset or magnified by the effect of another factor. You should ensure that the ETF meets your own objectives and circumstances and consider the possible risks and benefits of purchasing the ETF.

If you buy a share on a extended settlement you will receive the shares today but not have to pay for them until the settlement date. If you do not have the funds available at the settlement date, the shares will need to be sold. If the sale price is lower than the purchase price, you will be responsible for any shortfall.
