Hedgewise Overview

Hedgewise products have substantially different levels of volatility and exposure to separate risk factors, such as commodity prices and the use of leverage via derivatives, compared to traditional benchmarks like the S&P 500. Such comparisons are provided as a generic baseline for a long-term investment portfolio and do not suggest that Hedgewise products will exhibit similar characteristics. Models rely on publicly available prices, assume dividends are re-invested, and include an estimate for all fees and commissions. Hedgewise relies on sophisticated algorithms which present separate technological risk, including data availability, system uptime and speed, coding errors, and reliance on third party vendors. This data has been compiled from data considered to be reliable, however, the information is unaudited and is not independently verified. All securities involve risk and may result in loss. There can be no assurance that any investment mix will perform in any predictable manner. Past performance is no guarantee of future returns. An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing.

Hedgewise is deeply committed to providing its clients with better investments and 100% transparency. We make it easy to check our performance, and to compare it to a number of common benchmarks. Our goal is to make it obvious that our products beat traditional approaches.

For example, since 2016, the Hedgewise Moderate Mix has significantly outperformed a comparable passive strategy (the iShares Moderate Allocation ETF), and the Hedgewise 30yr Bond Benchmark has significantly outperformed 30yr US Treasuries.

Products	CAGR	YTD	MTD	Vol.	Max Loss
HW Moderate Mix	7.8%	11.0%	0.7%	9.1%	-18.3%
iShares Mod. ETF (AOM)	5.7%	9.0%	0.6%	8.1%	-20.0%
HW 30yr Benchmark	7.3%	14.0%	2.7%	13.5%	-31.6%
US 30yr Treasuries	0.4%	3.9%	4.0%	15.4%	-52.3%

All performance data shown represents a mix of publicly available benchmark data and a composite of live Hedgewise client performance which includes all costs and fees. The HW Moderate Mix is comprised of 40% in the S&P 500 and 60% in the Hedgewise Risk Parity "Low" product. The HW 30yr Benchmark is equivalent to the Hedgewise Risk Parity "Max" product. Where included, benchmark performance data (such as the S&P 500) includes an estimate for all dividends, coupons, and fees. There is no guarantee that such performance could have been achieved, as it would have been affected by material factors including market liquidity, bid-ask spreads, intraday price fluctuations, and instrument availability.

Any investment involves risk, including the risk of loss. Comparisons to benchmarks are provided as a generic baseline for a long-term investment portfolio and do not suggest that Hedgewise products will exhibit similar characteristics.
