Index performance returns are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent an actual fund or portfolio performance. Index performance returns do not reflect any management fees, transaction costs or expenses. Indexes are unmanaged and one cannot invest directly in an index. The information herein is not intended to predict actual results, which may differ substantially from those reflected. Investing involves risks, including possible loss of principal. Performance data quoted here represents past performance. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. This material contains certain performance data based on back-testing, (i.e.) simulations of performance of a strategy as if it had actually existed during a defined period of time. The results of such data presented here are for illustrative purposes only, and constitute the judgment of RSA. While the information has been prepared in good faith, there are inherent limitations that recipients must consider carefully. Different models or different assumptions may yield different results.
For the statistics to the right of the line chart: Date ranges of 10 years or longer use rolling yearly returns with daily data frequency. Date ranges from four to 10 years use rolling quarterly returns with daily data frequency. Date ranges from 10 months to four years use rolling monthly returns with daily data frequency. Date ranges from three months to 10 months use rolling weekly returns with daily data frequency. Data ranges of up to three months use rolling daily returns with daily data frequency.
