Valuations in the China internet sector are still hovering near all-time lows even as positive developments continue to mount. China’s leadership has reinforced the end of the regulatory cycle that has weighed on the sector for the past two years. Furthermore, China is relaxing its zero COVID approach. President Xi has reaffirmed the 5.5% GDP growth target, meaning more stimulus could be on the way for an economy that is not currently facing the same inflationary pressures as its Western peers. In this season’s China Internet Report, we explore the key catalysts that could provide a tailwind for China equities and the internet sector. Report Highlights:

Carefully consider the Funds’ investment objectives, risk factors, charges and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in the Funds’ full and summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting: KWEB, KBA, KURE, KFYP, KRBN, KEUA, KCCA, KGRN, KALL, KBND, KHYB, OBOR, KARS, KEMQ, KMED, KEMX, KESG, KSTR, KFVG, KBUY, KTEC, KGRO, KGHG, KSET, KLCD, KSCD, IVOL, BNDD, KVLE, KMLM. Read the prospectus carefully before investing. Please note these links also contain the Funds' top ten holdings, performance, and other important information.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance that a Fund will achieve its stated objectives. Indices are unmanaged and do not include the effect of fees. One cannot invest directly in an index.

This information should not be relied upon as research, investment advice, or a recommendation regarding any products, strategies, or any security in particular. This material is strictly for illustrative, educational, or informational purposes and is subject to change. Certain content represents an assessment of the market environment at a specific time and is not intended to be a forecast of future events or a guarantee of future results; material is as of the dates noted and is subject to change without notice.

The ability of KWEB to achieve its respective investment objectives is dependent, in part, on the continuous availability of A Shares and the ability to obtain, if necessary, additional A Shares quota. If KWEB is unable to obtain sufficient exposure to limited availability of A Share quota, KWEB could seek exposure to the component securities of the Underlying Index by investment in other types of securities. KWEB is subject to political, social or economic instability within China which may cause decline in value. Emerging markets involve heightened risk related to the same factors as well as increase volatility and lower trading volume. Fluctuations in currency of foreign countries may have an adverse effect to domestic currency values. KWEB may invest in derivatives, which are often more volatile than other investments and may magnify KWEBs’ gains or losses. A derivative (i.e., futures/forward contracts, swaps, and options) is a contract that derives its value from the performance of an underlying asset. The primary risk of derivatives is that changes in the asset’s market value and the derivative may not be proportionate, and some derivatives can have the potential for unlimited losses. Derivatives are also subject to liquidity and counterparty risk. KWEB is subject to liquidity risk, meaning that certain investments may become difficult to purchase or sell at a reasonable time and price. If a transaction for these securities is large, it may not be possible to initiate which may cause KWEB to suffer losses.

KWEB may invest in Initial Public Offerings (IPOs). Securities issued in IPOs have no trading history, and information about the companies may be available for very limited periods. In addition, the prices of securities sold in IPOs may be highly volatile. In addition, as KWEB increases in size, the impact of IPOs on KWEB’s performance will generally decrease. Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility. KWEB’s assets are expected to be concentrated in an industry or group of industries to the extent that the Underlying Index concentrates in a particular industry or group of industries. The securities of companies in an industry or group of industries could react similarly to market developments. Thus, KWEB is subject to loss due to adverse occurrences that affect one industry or group of industries or sector. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, investments in smaller companies typically exhibit higher volatility. KWEB is non-diversified.
