Overview
The GMO Horizons Strategy is a global strategy reflecting the view that the world economy is transitioning to a lower carbon future, and that this process will create opportunities for investors to generate excess returns. The Strategy seeks to capture these opportunities and mitigate related risks through significant exposure to impactful climate solutions and reduced total emissions intensity (direct and indirect), while controlling for exposure to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) risks.
The GMO Horizons Strategy is a fully systematic and diversified solution that provides:
- Materially lower total emissions than the benchmark as measured using scope 1 emissions and GMO’s proprietary Indirect Emissions model, which estimates the indirect emissions embodied in end-to-end company value chains
- High levels of exposure to companies where revenue is derived from selling green products and services
- ESG risk mitigation via better ESG characteristics than the benchmark

Risks
Risks associated with investing in the Strategy may include: (1) Market Risk - Equities: The market price of equities may decline due to factors affecting the issuer, its industries, or the economy and equity markets generally. Declines in stock market prices generally are likely to reduce the net asset value of the Fund's shares. (2) Management and Operational Risk: The risk that GMO's investment techniques will fail to produce desired results, including annualized returns and annualized volatility. (3) Non-U.S. Investment Risk: The market prices of many non-U.S. securities (particularly of companies tied economically to emerging countries) fluctuate more than those of U.S. securities. Many non-U.S. markets (particularly emerging markets) are less stable, smaller, less liquid, and less regulated than U.S. markets, and the cost of trading in those markets often is higher than it is in U.S. markets.For a more complete discussion of these risks and others, please consult the Fund's offering documents. This is not a complete list of risks associated with investing in the Strategy. Please contact GMO for more information.
