## Frequently Asked Questions

### What does VONE invest in?

This exchange-traded fund (ETF) aims to replicate the performance of the Russell 1000 Index, a comprehensive benchmark composed of a wide array of prominent U.S. companies. The index itself is often regarded as a key indicator for large-capitalization U.S. stock returns, particularly those showing growth. While offering substantial potential for capital appreciation, its value tends to experience greater volatility compared to fixed-income investments. Consequently, it is best suited for investors with a long-term investment horizon for whom significant growth of their principal is a primary objective. Regarding 75% of its overall assets, the fund operates under specific investment restrictions: it cannot acquire more than 10% of the voting shares of any single company, nor can it hold more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of one issuer. These limitations, however, can be overridden if necessary to maintain a close approximation of the target index's composition. It's important to note that these particular constraints do not apply to investments in U.S. government or agency obligations.
