Important Information

Beta: is a measure of risk representing how a security is expected to respond to general market movements. Smart Beta: an alternative and selection index based methodology that may outperform a benchmark or mitigate portfolio risk, or both.

Expanding the Investor Toolbox Decoding the “Buzz”



“Once you get past the moniker, some very intelligent people are doing some very interesting things that intersect the world of active and passive investing.” Jerry Kerns Editor-in-Chief, Morningstar Magazine

“The New Game” Morningstar Magazine, April/May 2014

Formulaic based on predetermined

rules


What is Smart Beta? “The common thread among [smart beta ETFs] is that they seek to either improve their return profile or alter their risk profile relative to more traditional market benchmarks.” 1

– Ben Johnson, Director of Passive Funds Research, Morningstar


1 Source: “The Strategic Factor of Smart Beta” Morningstar Magazine, April/May 2014 Beta is a measure of risk representing how a security is expected to respond to general market movements. Smart Beta represents an alternative and selection index based methodology that seeks to outperform a benchmark or reduce portfolio risk, or both. Smart beta funds may underperform cap-weighted benchmarks and increase portfolio risk.

Smart Beta Fastest-Growing ETF Segment

Nonmarket-cap-weighted ETFs captured over 29% of the U.S. ETF equity inflows in 2013, despite representing only 19% of the assets.1

“Towers Watson* clients already have $20 billion of assets invested in smart beta strategies.” *Towers Watson is a global consulting firm. Clients referenced are institutional clients. 2

“ ‘There is a good chance 30% of equity allocations will end up in smart beta products.’” The article underscores that an understanding of the diversity across smart beta funds is essential, and if ‘strategies fail to deliver in the long term, investors will withdraw.’”3

An investor cannot invest directly in an index. Past performance is not indicative of future results.

ETFs, in and of themselves, do not qualify as diversified investment strategies. Diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against loss.

This does not constitute a recommendation of the suitability of any investment strategy for a particular investor. Investors should consult their Financial Advisors before making any investment decisions. Diversification does not ensure a profit or eliminate the risk of loss.

Core-Satellite Investing

Tactically adjust market exposure based on market outlook with the objective of achieving portfolio out-performance


Aggressive

Defensive

Cautious

P-SBTD-PPT-1P 10.14 x01.15

Core-Satellite investing is a method of portfolio construction designed to balance expected risk and return in a portfolio by combining “core” strategies that seek to minimize portfolio volatility and costs with “satellite” strategies that seek to enhance portfolio returns compared to a benchmark. Satellite portfolio allocations generally fall into four strategies that seek to: resist general fluctuations in the market (defensive); dampen risks that may cause portfolio losses (cautious); selectively participate in market fluctuations that may enhance portfolio returns (opportunistic); fully participate in upward market swings that may enhance portfolio returns (aggressive).

This should not be construed as investment advice nor as a recommendation of a particular strategy or product. Consult with your financial advisor before making any investment decisions. There is no assurance that an investment strategy will outperform or achieve its investment objectives.

Any single metric index works, but has a structural bias: – Sales—Overexposed to large companies with thin margins – Cash flow—Overexposed to cyclical stocks at cyclical peaks – Dividends—Overexposed to mature, high-yield companies, and exclusion of

growth companies – Book Value—Overexposed to companies with aggressive accounting

Composite approach seeks to improve methodology – Seeks to diversify exposure to data source, sectors, and other risks – Seeks to improve robustness of methodology – Potential for positive risk-return performance

Q & A/Discussion

Glossary & Terms


Alternatively Weighted Fixed Income: Assigns issuer weights based upon alternative weighting methodologies including equal, fundamental or other non-market capitalization weighting approaches.

Alpha: a measure of performance relative to the market. An alpha of 1.0% means the fund outperformed the market 1.0%. A positive alpha is the extra return awarded to the investor for taking additional risk rather than by accepting the market return.

Basis Point: A basis point is the movement of interest rates or yields expressed in hundredths of a point.

Beta/Traditional: is a measure of risk representing how a security is expected to respond to general market movements.

High Beta: Utilizes a beta-weighted methodology to increase exposure to market movements of a benchmark without incorporating leverage.

Book Value: represents a company’s total assets minus intangibles and liabilities.

Buyback: Tracks US companies that consistently repurchase their own outstanding shares used by institutions and active managers for decades.

Correlation: indicates the degree to which two investments have historically moved in the same direction and magnitude.

Dividends/High Dividend: shows how much a company pays out each year to shareholders relative to its share price. Companies characterized as high dividend tend to issue higher annual payouts.

Dividend Growers: Ranks securities by their dividend yield while seeking to increase overall portfolio yield and potential for improved price performance.

Dividend Yield: the yearly dividend per share divided by the market price at the time of purchase. It is the ratio that shows how much a company pays out in dividends each year relative to its share price.

Down/Up Capture: Down capture measures how severely periods of negative benchmark returns affect a manager. Up capture measures how greatly periods of positive benchmark returns affect a manager.

Drawdowns: refers to the period of decline for an investment and usually quoted as a percentage between the highest net asset value to the lowest.

Earnings Momentum: is a measure of the acceleration of the amount of earnings that a company produces during a specific period, which is usually defined as a quarter or a year.

Excess Return: the rate of return that an investor can expect to receive on a security in excess of the risk-free rate for taking on additional risk compared to

a benchmark.

Expense Ratio: the total annual fees and expenses charged by a fund divided by average daily net assets. ETFs and index mutual funds tend to have lower expense ratios than most actively managed mutual funds because they do not have active management.

Equity Hedge/Tail Risk: A form of portfolio risk that arises when the possibility that an investment will move greater than what is shown by a normal distribution.

Equal Weighted: Assigns issuers in equivalent amounts.

Factor Driven: A method of using objective style determinates, such as

Futures Market: an exchange where futures contracts and options on futures contracts are traded. This may include commodities, financial derivatives or a combination of these, as well as futures and options on indexes and equity products.

Liquidity: is characterized by a high level of trading activity and is a measure of the degree to which an asset or stock can be bought or sold in the market without affecting it’s asset price. Assets or stocks that can be easily bought or sold are known as liquid assets.

Low Cost: since ordinary brokerage commissions apply for each buy and sell transaction, frequent activity may increase the cost of ETFs.

Low Volatility: Utilize volatility rankings while seeking to minimize the effects of market fluctuations.

Market-Cap-Weighted: a type of index in which individual components are weighted according to market capitalization. Index value can be calculated by adding the market capitalizations of each index component and dividing that sum by the number of securities in the index.

Median: The middle number in a sorted list of numbers.

Momentum: Ranks securities relative to peers, utilizing relative strength methodology to identify the strongest and weakest investment trends.

Multi Strategy Alternatives: Seek positive lo correlations returns compared to the broader market through investments in a combination of strategies, that could include a combination of securities.

P-SBTD-PPT-1P 10.14 x01.15

Many ETFs calculate an indication of their NAVs throughout the trading day, in addition to calculating their NAVs once per day, after the market close.

Non-Cap Weighted: assign weights to stocks based on factors other than market capitalization in an attempt to reduce the risk of overexposure to a certain sector or group of stocks.

Standard Deviation: Standard deviation measures a fund’s range of total returns and identifies the spread of a fund’s short-term fluctuations.

Tactical Asset Allocation: Process of dynamically adjusting market exposure based on market outlook with the objective of achieving portfolio out-performance.

Invesco Ltd. and its subsidiaries offer no guarantees or warranties as to the accuracy and reliability of opinions expressed, and cannot guarantee similar experiences. Important Information There is no assurance that the products listed in this material will achieve their investment objectives. Please be aware that the products listed are subject to various risks which depending upon the product may include risks such as value investing, sector, interest rate, fixed-income investing, commodities and futures, and foreign and emerging markets. For further description on the relative risks for each product please obtain the appropriate prospectus by visiting invescopowershares.com/prospectus. +When we say that our ETFs are intelligent, we mean that in several different ways: One of our largest family of ETFs is based on Intellidexes™ — dynamic indexes that use rules-based quantitative analysis to choose stocks for their capital appreciation potential. We believe this is an intelligent way for an index to select stocks. Our ETFs based on FTSE RAFI® indexes weight stocks according to fundamental economic factors. We believe this is a more intelligent weighting method than market-cap weighting. Furthermore, our Fundamental Index ETFs are based on four factors — sales, cash flow, book value and dividends — which we believe is a more balanced, intelligent approach than weighting stocks according to just one fundamental measure. We also have a wide range of ETFs that target narrow slices of the market (Intelligent Access) — from niche industries to specific world regions. For investors who are interested in these niches, we believe ETFs — which invest in multiple companies within a market sector — may offer a more intelligent investment approach than stock picking.

General Risk Information

There are risks involved with investing in ETFs, including possible loss of money. Index-based ETFs are not actively managed and are subject to risks similar to those of stocks, including those regarding short selling and margin maintenance

requirements. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. The Fund's return may not match the return of the Underlying Index. There is no assurance that the strategies or funds listed in this material will achieve their investment objectives. Investments focused in a particular industry are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market volatility, than more diversified investments. The information in this presentation is provided for informational purposes only and is not to be construed as investment advice or a recommendation of a particular strategy or product. All strategies discussed must be implemented by a financial advisor. Asset allocation/diversification do not eliminate the risk of loss. Important Risk Information Low Volatility: Volatility is a statistical measurement of the magnitude of up and down asset price fluctuations over time. There can be no guarantee the Fund will provide low volatility. High Dividend Risk Information: Securities that pay high dividends as a group can fall out of favor with the market, causing such companies to underperform companies that do not pay high dividends. High Yield/Quality Risk Information: High-yield securities have additional risks, including interest-rate changes, decreased market liquidity and a larger amount of outstanding debt than investment-grade securities.

BuyBack Risk Information: BuyBack strategies are characterized by companies that consistently repurchase their own outstanding shares of common stock. Common stock risk is the financial risk that the value of an individual company's stock may fall as a result of factors directly relating to that company, such as decisions made by its management or lower demand for the company's products or services. Common stocks may decline significantly in price over short or extended periods of time.



Important Risk Information Momentum Risk Information: The momentum style of investing is subject to the risk that the securities may be more volatile than the market as a whole, or that the returns on securities that have previously exhibited price momentum are less than returns on other styles of investing. High Beta Risk Information: Beta investing entails investing in securities that are more volatile based on historical market index data. Sector & Industry Risk Information: Investments focused in a particular industry are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market volatility than more diversified investments. International Risk Information: The risks of investing in securities of foreign issuers, including emerging market issuers, can include fluctuations in foreign currencies, political and economic instability, and foreign taxation issues. Fundamentals Weighted Fixed Income Risk: Fixed-income securities, such as notes and bonds, carry interest rate and credit risk. Interest rate risk refers to the risk that bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise and vice versa. Credit risk is the risk of loss on an investment due to the deterioration of an issuer’s financial health.

PowerShares FTSE RAFI US 100 Portfolio (PRF) Investments focused in a particular industry are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market volatility, than more diversified investments.

Equity risk is the risk that the value of equity securities, including common stocks, may fall due to both changes in general economic and political conditions that impact the market as a whole, as well as factors that directly relate to a specific company or its industry.

PowerShares S&P 500® Low Volatility Portfolio (SPLV) The Fund is considered non-diversified and may be subject to greater risks than a diversified fund.

Investments focused in a particular industry are subject to greater risk, and are more greatly impacted by market volatility, than more diversified investments.
