Portfolio Specific Risks
Loss of money is a risk of investing in each Portfolio. An investment in a Portfolio is not a deposit of any credit union and is not insured or guarenteed by the National Credit Union Share Insurance Fund, the National Credit Union Administration, or any other governmental agency. The NAVs of the Bond Portfolios will fluctuate, and may decline for extended periods, as a result of various factors, including, but not limited to, market and interest rate conditions and the amount of distributions paid by the Bond Portfolios. There is no assurance that the NAV of a Bond Portfolio will return to its prior levels after a decline. None of the portfolios should be relied upon as a complete investment program. There can be no assurance that a Portfolio will achieve its investment objective. Rely on the Prospectus for Principal Risks of the Portfolios (page 11).
