You should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges
and expenses of a Fund before investing. Prospectuses for the Funds
contain this and other important information and are available free
of charge by calling toll-free at 1-800-621-1675 or visiting
https://www.ftportfolios.com. A prospectus should be read
carefully before investing.
Principal Risk Factors: You could lose money by investing in
a fund. An investment in a fund is not a deposit of a bank and is
not insured or guaranteed. There can be no assurance that a fund's
objective(s) will be achieved. Investors buying or selling shares
on the secondary market may incur customary brokerage commissions.
Please refer to each fund's prospectus and Statement of Additional
Information for additional details on a fund's risks. The order of
the below risk factors does not indicate the significance of any
particular risk factor.
Past performance is no assurance of future results. Investment
return and market value of an investment in a Fund will fluctuate.
Shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original
cost.
A Fund's shares will change in value, and you could lose money
by investing in a Fund. An investment in a Fund is not a deposit of
a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency. There can
be no assurance that a Fund's investment objectives will be
achieved. An investment in a Fund involves risks similar to those
of investing in any portfolio of equity securities traded on
exchanges. The risks of investing in each Fund are spelled out in
its prospectus, shareholder report, and other regulatory
filings.
ETF shares may only be redeemed directly from a fund by
authorized participants in very large creation/redemption units.
ETF shares may trade at a discount to net asset value and possibly
face delisting.
All or a portion of a fund's otherwise tax exempt interest
dividends may be taxable to those shareholders subject to the
federal and state alternative minimum tax.
Securities of small- and mid-capitalization companies may
experience greater price volatility and be less liquid than larger,
more established companies whereas large capitalization companies
may grow at a slower rate than the overall market.
A fund that effects all or a portion of its creations and
redemptions for cash rather than in-kind may be less tax
efficient.
Current market conditions risk is the risk that a particular
investment, or shares of the fund in general, may fall in value due
to current market conditions. As a means to fight inflation, the
Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks have raised
interest rates and expect to continue to do so, and the Federal
Reserve has announced that it intends to reverse previously
implemented quantitative easing. Recent and potential future bank
failures could result in disruption to the broader banking industry
or markets generally and reduce confidence in financial
institutions and the economy as a whole, which may also heighten
market volatility and reduce liquidity. Ongoing armed conflicts
between Russia and Ukraine in Europe and among Israel, Hamas and
other militant groups in the Middle East, have caused and could
continue to cause significant market disruptions and volatility
within the markets in Russia, Europe, the Middle East and the
United States. The hostilities and sanctions resulting from those
hostilities have and could continue to have a significant impact on
certain fund investments as well as fund performance and liquidity.
The COVID-19 global pandemic, or any future public health crisis,
and the ensuing policies enacted by governments and central banks
have caused and may continue to cause significant volatility and
uncertainty in global financial markets, negatively impacting
global growth prospects.
A fund is susceptible to operational risks through breaches in
cyber security. Such events could cause a fund to incur regulatory
penalties, reputational damage, additional compliance costs
associated with corrective measures and/or financial loss.
In managing a fund's investment portfolio, the portfolio
managers will apply investment techniques and risk analyses that
may not have the desired result.
Market risk is the risk that a particular security, or shares of
a fund in general may fall in value. Securities are subject to
market fluctuations caused by such factors as general economic
conditions, political events, regulatory or market developments,
changes in interest rates and perceived trends in securities
prices. Shares of a fund could decline in value or underperform
other investments as a result. In addition, local, regional or
global events such as war, acts of terrorism, spread of infectious
disease or other public health issues, recessions, natural
disasters or other events could have significant negative impact on
a fund.
A fund with significant exposure to a single asset class,
country, region, industry, or sector may be more affected by an
adverse economic or political development than a broadly
diversified fund.
Commodity prices can have a significant volatility and exposure
to commodities can cause the value of a fund's shares to decline or
fluctuate in a rapid and unpredictable manner.
Certain securities are subject to call, credit, extension,
income, inflation, interest rate, prepayment and zero coupon risks.
These risks could result in a decline in a security's value and/or
income, increased volatility as interest rates rise or fall and
have an adverse impact on a fund's performance.
The use of listed and OTC derivatives, including futures,
options, swap agreements and forward contracts, can lead to losses
because of adverse movements in the price or value of the
underlying asset, index or rate, which may be magnified by certain
features of the derivatives.
Securities of non-U.S. issuers are subject to additional risks,
including currency fluctuations, political risks, withholding, the
lack of adequate financial information, and exchange control
restrictions impacting non-U.S. issuers. These risk may be
heightened for securities of companies located in, or with
significant operations in, emerging market countries.
A fund may invest in the shares of other funds, which involves
additional expenses that would not be present in a direct
investment in the underlying funds. In addition, a fund's
investment performance and risks may be related to the investment
performance and risks of the underlying funds.
First Trust Advisors L.P. (FTA) is the adviser to the First
Trust fund(s). FTA is an affiliate of First Trust Portfolios L.P.,
