What is the goal of the Fund?
The Fund seeks a high level of current income exempt from federal income taxes.
Fees and Expenses of the Fund
The following table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell Shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and example below.

The Fund’s adviser and/or its affiliates have contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses to the extent Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding acquired fund fees and expenses other than certain money market fund fees as described below, dividend and interest expenses related to short sales, interest, taxes, expenses related to litigation and potential litigation, costs of shareholder meetings, and extraordinary expenses) exceed 0.35% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. The Fund may invest in one or more money market funds advised by the adviser or its affiliates (affiliated money market funds). The Fund’s adviser has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses in an amount sufficient to offset the fees and expenses of the affiliated money market funds incurred by the Fund because of the Fund’s investment in such money market funds. These waivers are in effect through 7/31/26, at which time it will be determined whether such waivers will be renewed or revised. To the extent that the Fund engages in securities lending, affiliated money market fund fees and expenses resulting from the Fund’s investment of cash received from securities lending borrowers are not included in Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses and therefore, the above waivers do not apply to such investments.
Example
This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other funds. The Example does not take into account brokerage commissions that you pay when purchasing or selling Shares of the Fund. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses are equal to the total annual fund operating expenses after fee waivers and expense reimburse
ments shown in the fee table through 7/31/26 and total annual fund operating expenses thereafter. Your actual costs may be higher or lower.

Portfolio Turnover
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year of the predecessor fund (as defined below), the predecessor fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 21% of the average value of its portfolio.
What are the Fund’s main investment strategies?
Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its Assets in municipal securities, the income from which is exempt from federal income tax. This is a fundamental policy. For purposes of this policy, “Assets” means net assets, plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes. Municipal securities are securities issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the United States, including the District of Columbia, and their respective authorities, political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and other groups with the authority to act for the municipalities, the interest on which is exempt from federal income tax. The securities are issued to raise funds for various public and private purposes. Municipal securities may include, but are not limited to, variable rate demand obligations, short-term municipal notes, municipal bonds, tax exempt commercial paper, private activity and industrial development bonds, tax anticipation notes, and participations in pools of municipal securities.
Municipal securities also include instruments evidencing direct ownership of interest payments or principal payments, or both, on municipal securities, such as tender option bonds and participation interests in all or part of specific holdings of municipal obligations, provided that the applicable issuer receives assurances from legal counsel that the interest payable on the securities is exempt from federal income tax. Additionally, municipal securities include all other instruments that directly or indirectly provide economic exposure to income which is derived from municipalities (such as municipal leases). The securities in which the Fund invests may have fixed rates of return or floating or variable rates.

JPMorgan High Yield Municipal ETF (continued)
The Fund will invest in municipal securities of any maturity. As part of its investments in municipal securities, the Fund will also have the ability to invest up to 100% of the Fund’s total assets in below investment grade or unrated securities. Such securities are also known as “junk bonds,” “high yield bonds” and “non-investment grade bonds.” Junk bonds also include unrated securities that the Fund’s adviser believes to be of comparable quality to debt securities that are rated below investment grade. These securities generally are rated in the fifth or lower rating categories (for example, BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor’s Corporation (S&P) and Ba1 or lower by Moody’s Investors Service Inc. (Moody’s)). These securities generally offer a higher yield than investment grade securities, but involve a high degree of risk. A security’s quality is determined at the time of purchase and securities that are rated investment grade or the unrated equivalent may be downgraded or decline in credit quality such that subsequently they would be deemed to be below investment grade.
The Fund will also invest in investment grade securities. Investment grade securities carry a minimum rating of Baa3, BBB–, or BBB– by Moody’s, S&P, or Fitch Ratings (Fitch), respectively, or the equivalent by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) or are unrated but deemed by the adviser to be of comparable quality. Under normal market conditions, the Fund intends to invest a significant portion of its Assets in securities rated BBB/BB by S&P and Fitch, Baa/Ba by Moody’s or unrated securities that the adviser deems to be of equivalent quality.
The Fund may also invest in common shares or preferred shares of unaffiliated closed-end funds. The Fund generally will limit its investments in a single closed-end fund to 5% of its total assets and in all registered investment companies including closed-end funds (other than money market funds) to 10% of its total assets.
The Fund may invest in shares of exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The ETFs in which the Fund may invest include registered investment companies that seek to track the performance of a particular market index or security. These indexes include not only broad-based market indexes but more specific indexes as well, including those relating to particular sectors, markets, regions or industries. Ordinarily, the Fund must limit its investments in a single ETF to 5% of its total assets and in all ETFs and other investment companies to 10% of its total assets. However, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopted an exemptive rule that allows any fund to disregard these 5% and 10% limitations, subject to certain conditions.
The Fund may invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, including Treasury bills, bonds and notes. These investments carry different interest rates, maturities and issue dates. The interest on these securities may be exempt from state and local income taxes.
Up to 100% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in municipal securities, the interest on which may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for individuals.
Up to 20% of the Fund’s net assets may be invested in securities subject to federal income tax.
The Fund may also invest in zero-coupon securities, Treasury futures and credit default swaps as part of its main investment strategy.
The Fund also invests in inverse floaters and restricted securities.
Investment Process: The adviser buys and sells securities and investments for the Fund based on its view of individual securities and market sectors. Taking a long-term approach, the adviser primarily looks for individual fixed income investments that it believes will perform well over market cycles. The adviser is value oriented and makes investment decisions after performing a risk/reward analysis that includes an evaluation of interest rate risk, credit risk, duration, liquidity, any security pledge, and a review of the security’s attributes, such as the coupon, maturity, and any redemption and tender provisions. The adviser also factors in the overall investment strategy of the Fund, including its duration and its credit strategy, as well as the adviser’s interest rate outlook. As part of its investment process, the adviser seeks to assess the impact of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors on certain issuers in the universe in which the Fund may invest. The adviser’s assessment is based on an analysis of key opportunities and risks across industries to seek to identify financially material issues with respect to the Fund’s investments in municipal issues and ascertain key issues that merit engagement with municipal issuers. These assessments may not be conclusive and securities that may be negatively impacted by such factors may be purchased and retained by the Fund while the Fund may divest or not invest in securities that may be positively impacted by such factors.
The Fund’s Main Investment Risks
The Fund is subject to management risk and may not achieve its objective if the adviser’s expectations regarding particular instruments or markets are not met.

An investment in this Fund or any other fund may not provide a complete investment program. The suitability of an investment in the Fund should be considered based on the investment objective, strategies and risks described in this prospectus, considered in light of all of the other investments in your portfolio, as well as your risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizons. You may want to consult with a financial advisor to determine if this Fund is suitable for you.
The Fund is subject to the main risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the Fund’s net asset value (NAV), market price, performance and ability to meet its investment objective.
Municipal Obligations Risk. The risk of a municipal obligation generally depends on the financial and credit status of the issuer. Changes in the financial health of a municipal issuer may
2  |  J.P. Morgan Exchange-Traded Funds

make it difficult for the issuer to make interest and principal payments when due. This could decrease the Fund’s income or hurt the ability to preserve capital and liquidity.
Under some circumstances, municipal obligations might not pay interest unless the state legislature or municipality authorizes money for that purpose.
Municipal obligations may be more susceptible to downgrades or defaults during recessions or similar periods of economic stress. In addition, since some municipal obligations may be secured or guaranteed by banks and other institutions, the risk to the Fund could increase if the banking or financial sector suffers an economic downturn and/or if the credit ratings of the institutions issuing the guarantee are downgraded or at risk of being downgraded by a national rating organization. Such a downward revision or risk of being downgraded may have an adverse effect on the market prices of the bonds and thus the value of the Fund’s investments.
In addition to being downgraded, an insolvent municipality may file for bankruptcy. The reorganization of a municipality’s debts may significantly affect the rights of creditors and the value of the securities issued by the municipality and the value of the Fund’s investments.
General Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform in comparison to securities in general financial markets, a particular financial market or other asset classes due to a number of factors, including inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, market instability, financial system instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers, regulatory events, other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events. In addition, the value of the Fund’s investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters or events, country instability, and infectious disease epidemics or pandemics.
For example, the outbreak of COVID-19 negatively affected economies, markets and individual companies throughout the world, including those in which the Fund invests. The effects of this, or any future, pandemic to public health and business and market conditions may have a significant negative impact on the performance of the Fund’s investments, increase the Fund’s volatility, negatively impact the Fund’s arbitrage and pricing mechanisms, exacerbate pre-existing political, social and economic risks to the Fund, and negatively impact broad segments of businesses and populations. In addition, governments, their regulatory agencies, or self-regulatory organizations have taken or may take actions in response to a pandemic that affect the instruments in which the Fund invests, or the issuers of
such instruments, in ways that could have a significant negative impact on the Fund’s investment performance. The ultimate impact of any pandemic and the extent to which the associated conditions and governmental responses impact the Fund will also depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, difficult to accurately predict and subject to frequent changes.
Alternative Minimum Tax Risk. The Fund may invest in securities, the interest on which may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax.
Cash Transactions Risk. Unlike certain ETFs, the Fund may effect creations and redemptions in cash or partially in cash. Therefore, it may be required to sell portfolio securities and subsequently recognize gains on such sales that the Fund might not have recognized if it were to distribute portfolio securities in-kind. As such, investments in Shares may be less tax-efficient than an investment in an ETF that distributes portfolio securities entirely in-kind.
High Yield Securities Risk. The Fund may invest in securities and instruments of municipal issuers that are highly leveraged, less creditworthy or financially distressed. These investments (also known as junk bonds) are considered to be speculative and are subject to greater risk of loss, greater sensitivity to economic changes, valuation difficulties, and potential illiquidity.
In recent years, there has been a broad trend of weaker or less restrictive covenant protections in the high yield market. Among other things, under such weaker or less restrictive covenants, borrowers might be able to exercise more flexibility with respect to certain activities than borrowers who are subject to stronger or more protective covenants. For example, borrowers might be able to incur more debt, including secured debt, return more capital to shareholders, remove or reduce assets that are designated as collateral securing high yield securities, increase the claims against assets that are permitted against collateral securing high yield securities or otherwise manage their business in ways that could impact creditors negatively. In addition, certain privately held borrowers might be permitted to file less frequent, less detailed or less timely financial reporting or other information, which could negatively impact the value of the high yield securities issued by such borrowers.
Each of these factors might negatively impact the high yield instruments held by the Fund. No active trading market may exist for some instruments and certain investments may be subject to restrictions on resale. The inability to dispose of the Fund’s securities and other investments in a timely fashion could result in losses to the Fund. Because some instruments may have a more limited secondary market, liquidity and valuation risk may be more pronounced for the Fund. When instruments are prepaid, the Fund may have to reinvest in instruments with a lower yield or fail to recover additional amounts (i.e., premiums) paid for these instruments, resulting in an unexpected capital loss and/or a decrease in the amount of dividends and yield.

JPMorgan High Yield Municipal ETF (continued)
Interest Rate Risk. The Fund mainly invests in bonds and other debt securities. These securities will increase or decrease in value based on changes in interest rates. If rates increase, the value of the Fund’s investments generally declines. Securities with greater interest rate sensitivity and longer maturities generally are subject to greater fluctuations in value. The Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk due to certain changes in monetary policy. It is difficult to predict the pace at which central banks or monetary authorities may increase interest rates or the timing, frequency, or magnitude of such increases. Any such changes could be sudden and could expose debt markets to significant volatility and reduced liquidity for Fund investments.
Credit Risk. The Fund’s investments are subject to the risk that issuers and/or counterparties will fail to make payments when due or default completely. If an issuer’s or a counterparty’s financial condition worsens, the credit quality of the issuer or counterparty may deteriorate. Credit spreads may increase, which may reduce the market values of the Fund’s securities. Credit spread risk is the risk that economic and market conditions or any actual or perceived credit deterioration may lead to an increase in the credit spreads (i.e., the difference in yield between two securities of similar maturity but different credit quality) and a decline in price of the issuer’s securities.
Floating and Variable Rate Securities Risk. Floating and variable rate securities provide for a periodic adjustment in the interest rate paid on the securities. The rate adjustment intervals may be regular and range from daily up to annually, or may be based on an event, such as a change in the prime rate. Floating and variable rate securities may be subject to greater liquidity risk than other debt securities, meaning that there may be limitations on the Fund’s ability to sell the securities at any given time. Such securities also may lose value.
Structured Product Risk. Structured products, such as tender option bonds, involve structural complexities and potential risks that may not be present where a municipal security is owned directly. These enhanced risks may include additional counter-party risk (the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its contractual obligations) and call risk (the risk that the instruments will be called and the proceeds may need to be reinvested). Additionally, an active trading market for such instruments may not exist. To the extent that a structured product provides a put, the Fund may receive a lower interest rate in return for such feature and will be subject to the risk that the put provider will be unable to honor the put feature (purchase the security). Finally, short-term municipal or tax-exempt structured products may present tax issues not presented by investments in other short-term municipal or tax-exempt securities. These issues might be resolved in a manner adverse to the Fund.
Restricted Securities Risk. Restricted securities are securities that cannot be offered for public resale unless registered under the applicable securities laws or that have a contractual restriction that prohibits or limits their resale. Restricted securities
include private placement securities that have not been registered under the applicable securities laws, such as Rule 144A securities, and securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers that are issued pursuant to Regulation S. Private placements are generally subject to strict restrictions on resale. Restricted securities may not be listed on an exchange and may have no active trading market. Restricted securities may be illiquid. The Fund may be unable to sell a restricted security on short notice or may be able to sell them only at a price below current value. It may be more difficult to determine a market value for a restricted security. Also, the Fund may get only limited information about the issuer of a restricted security, so it may be less able to predict a loss. In addition, if Fund management receives material non-public information about the issuer, the Fund may as a result be unable to sell the securities. Certain restricted securities may involve a high degree of business and financial risk and may result in substantial losses.
Derivatives Risk. Derivatives, such as futures contracts and swaps, may be riskier than other types of investments and may increase the volatility of the Fund. Derivatives may be sensitive to changes in economic and market conditions and may create leverage, which could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund’s original investment. Certain derivatives expose the Fund to counterparty risk, which is the risk that the derivative counterparty will not fulfill its contractual obligations (and includes credit risk associated with the counterparty). Certain derivatives are synthetic instruments that attempt to replicate the performance of certain reference assets. With regard to such derivatives, the Fund does not have a claim on the reference assets and is subject to enhanced counterparty risk. Derivatives may not perform as expected, so the Fund may not realize the intended benefits. When used for hedging, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the security or other risk being hedged. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose the Fund to risks of mispricing or improper valuation. Derivatives also can expose the Fund to derivative liquidity risk relating to the payment obligations created thereunder and legal and operational risk.
ETF and Other Investment Company Risk. The Fund may invest in shares of other investment companies and ETFs. Shareholders bear both their proportionate share of Fund’s expenses and similar expenses of the underlying investment company or ETF when the Fund invests in shares of another investment company or ETF. The price movement of an ETF or closed end fund designed to track an index may not track the index and may result in a loss. In addition, ETFs and closed-end investment companies may trade at a price above (premium) or below (discount) their NAV, especially during periods of significant market volatility or stress, causing investors to pay significantly more or less than the value of the ETF’s underlying portfolio. If the Fund invests in closed-end investment companies, it may incur added expenses such as additional management fees and trading costs.
4  |  J.P. Morgan Exchange-Traded Funds

Government Securities Risk. The Fund invests in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or other Government-Sponsored Enterprises (GSEs). U.S. government securities are subject to market risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Securities, such as those issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, that are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States are guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity and the market prices for such securities will fluctuate. Notwithstanding that these securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, circumstances could arise that would prevent the payment of interest or principal. This would result in losses to the Fund. U.S. government securities include zero coupon securities, which tend to be subject to greater market risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities.
Debt Securities and Other Callable Securities Risk. As part of its main investment strategy, the Fund invests in debt securities. The issuers of these securities and other callable securities may be able to repay principal in advance, especially when interest rates fall. Changes in prepayment rates can affect the return on investment and yield of these securities. When debt obligations are prepaid and when securities are called, the Fund may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield. The Fund also may fail to recover additional amounts (i.e., premiums) paid for securities with higher interest rates, resulting in an unexpected capital loss.
Inverse Floating Rate Instrument Risk. The market value of an inverse floater can be more volatile than that of a conventional fixed-rate bond having similar credit quality, maturity and redemption provisions. Inverse floaters involve complex transactions and involve risks in addition to risks associated with more conventional municipal obligations. Inverse floaters may be more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions than other types of investments and could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund’s original investment. Inverse floaters can create leverage thereby causing the Fund to be more volatile than it would be if it had not used inverse floaters.
Taxability Risk. The Fund’s investments in municipal securities rely on the opinion of the issuer’s bond counsel that the interest paid on those securities will not be subject to federal income tax. Tax opinions are generally provided at the time the municipal security is initially issued. However, after the Fund buys a security, the Internal Revenue Service may determine that a bond issued as tax-exempt should in fact be taxable and the Fund’s dividends with respect to that bond might be subject to federal income tax.
Zero-Coupon Bond Risk. The market value of a zero-coupon bond is generally more volatile than the market value of other fixed income securities with similar maturities that pay interest periodically. In addition, federal income tax law requires that the holder of a zero-coupon bond accrue a portion of the discount at which the bond was purchased as taxable income each year. The Fund may consequently have to dispose of
portfolio securities under disadvantageous circumstances to generate cash to satisfy its requirement as a regulated investment company to distribute all of its net income (including non-cash income attributable to zero-coupon securities). These actions may reduce the assets to which the Fund’s expenses could otherwise be allocated and may reduce the Fund’s rate of return.
Industry and Sector Focus Risk. At times, the Fund may increase the relative emphasis of its investments in a particular industry or sector. The prices of securities of issuers in a particular industry or sector may be more susceptible to fluctuations due to changes in economic or business conditions, government regulations, availability of basic resources or supplies, contagion risk within a particular industry or sector or to other industries or sectors, or other events that affect that industry or sector more than securities of issuers in other industries and sectors. To the extent that the Fund increases the relative emphasis of its investments in a particular industry or sector, the value of the Fund’s Shares may fluctuate in response to events affecting that industry or sector.
ETF Shares Trading Risk. Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the Exchange) and are bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The market prices of Shares are expected to fluctuate, in some cases materially, in response to changes in the Fund’s NAV, the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings and supply and demand for Shares. The adviser cannot predict whether Shares will trade above, below or at their NAV. Disruptions to creations and redemptions, the existence of significant market volatility or potential lack of an active trading market for the Shares (including through a trading halt), as well as other factors, may result in the Shares trading significantly above (at a premium) or below (at a discount) to NAV or to the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings. During such periods, you may incur significant losses if you sell your Shares.
Authorized Participant Concentration Risk. Only an authorized participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of intermediaries that act as authorized participants and none of these authorized participants is or will be obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent that these intermediaries exit the business or are unable to or choose not to proceed with creation and/or redemption orders with respect to the Fund and no other authorized participant creates or redeems, Shares may trade at a discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting.

Investments in the Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed or endorsed by, any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC, the Federal Reserve Board or any other government agency.

JPMorgan High Yield Municipal ETF (continued)
The Fund’s Past Performance
This section provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The Fund commenced operations after the assets of another investment company advised by the adviser, JPMorgan High Yield Municipal Fund (the predecessor fund), were transferred to the Fund in a tax-free reorganization as of the close of business on July 14, 2023. The Fund has the same investment objective and substantially similar investment strategies as those of the predecessor fund. Updated performance information is available by visiting www.jpmorganfunds.com or by calling 1-844-457-6383 (844-4JPM ETF).
The bar chart shows how the performance of the Fund’s Shares (represented by the performance of the predecessor fund’s Class R6 Shares) has varied from year to year for the past ten calendar years. The table shows the Fund's average annual total returns (represented by the average annual total returns of the predecessor fund’s Class R6 Shares) for the past one year, five years and ten years. The table compares the Fund’s performance (represented by the performance of the predecessor fund’s Class R6 Shares) to the performance of the Bloomberg US Municipal Index and the Bloomberg High Yield Municipal Bond Index. The indices do not include the fees and expenses of the mutual funds in each respective index. The performance of the Class R6 Shares of the predecessor fund prior to their inception are based on Class I Shares. The actual returns of the predecessor fund’s Class R6 Shares would be substantially similar to the performance of Class I Shares because the predecessor fund is invested in the same group of securities and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses. Performance for the Fund’s Shares has not been adjusted to reflect the Fund’s Shares’ lower expenses than those of the predecessor fund’s Class R6 Shares. Performance for the predecessor fund is based on the NAV per share of the predecessor fund shares rather than on market-determined prices. Past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Effective November 1, 2018, the predecessor fund’s investment strategies changed. The predecessor fund’s past performance would have been different if the predecessor fund were managed using the current strategies.

Purchase and Sale of Shares
Individual Shares of the Fund may only be purchased and sold in secondary market transactions through brokers or financial intermediaries. Shares of the Fund are listed for trading on the Exchange, and because Shares trade at market prices rather than NAV, Shares of the Fund may trade at a price greater than NAV (premium) or less than NAV (discount). Certain affiliates of the Fund and the adviser may purchase and resell Shares pursuant to this prospectus.
An investor may incur costs attributable to the difference between the highest price a buyer is willing to pay to purchase Shares of the Fund (bid) and the lowest price a seller is willing to accept for Shares (ask) when buying or selling Shares in the secondary market (the bid-ask spread).
Recent information, including information about the Fund’s NAV, market price, premiums and discounts, and bid-ask spreads (when available), is included on the Fund’s website at jpmorganfunds.com.
Tax Information
To the extent the Fund makes distributions, those distributions will be taxed as ordinary income or capital gains, except when your investment is in an IRA, 401(k) plan or other tax-advantaged investment plan, in which case you may be subject to federal income tax upon withdrawal from the tax-advantaged investment plan.
Payments to Broker-Dealers and Other Financial Intermediaries
If you purchase Shares of the Fund through a broker-dealer or other financial intermediary (such as a bank), the adviser and its related companies may pay the financial intermediary for the sale of Shares and related services. These payments may create a conflict of interest by influencing the broker-dealer or financial intermediary and your salesperson to recommend the Fund over another investment. Ask your salesperson or visit your financial intermediary’s website for more information.

More About the Fund
Additional Information About the Fund’s Investment Strategies
The Fund is an ETF, which is a fund that trades like other publicly-traded securities. The Fund is not an index fund. The Fund is actively managed and does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index.
The name, investment objective and policies of the Fund are similar to other funds advised by the adviser or its affiliates. However, the investment results of the Fund may be higher or lower than, and there is no guarantee that the investment results of the Fund will be comparable to, any other of these funds. A new fund or a fund with fewer assets under management may be more significantly affected by purchases and redemptions of its Creation Units (as defined below) than a fund with relatively greater assets under management would be affected by purchases and redemptions of its shares. As compared to a larger fund, a new or smaller fund is more likely to sell a comparatively large portion of its portfolio to meet significant Creation Unit redemptions, or invest a comparatively large amount of cash to facilitate Creation Unit purchases, in each case when the fund otherwise would not seek to do so. Such transactions may cause funds to make investment decisions at inopportune times or prices or miss attractive investment opportunities. Such transactions may also accelerate the realization of taxable income if sales of securities resulted in gains and the fund redeems Creation Units for cash, or otherwise cause a fund to perform differently than intended. While such risks may apply to funds of any size, such risks are heightened in funds with fewer assets under management. In addition, new funds may not be able to fully implement their investment strategy immediately upon commencing investment operations, which could reduce investment performance.
Main Investment Strategies
Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its Assets in municipal securities, the income from which is exempt from federal income tax. This is a fundamental policy. For purposes of this policy, “Assets” means net assets, plus the amount of borrowings for investment purposes. Municipal securities are securities issued by or on behalf of states, territories and possessions of the United States, including the District of Columbia, and their respective authorities, political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities and other groups with the authority to act for the municipalities, the interest on which is exempt from federal income tax. The securities are issued to raise funds for various public and private purposes. Municipal securities may include, but are not limited to, variable rate demand obligations, short-term municipal notes, municipal bonds, tax exempt commercial paper, private activity and industrial development bonds, tax anticipation notes, and participations in pools of municipal securities.
Municipal securities also include instruments evidencing direct ownership of interest payments or principal payments, or both, on municipal securities, such as tender option bonds and participation interests in all or part of specific holdings of municipal obligations, provided that the applicable issuer receives assurances from legal counsel that the interest payable on the securities is exempt from federal income tax. Additionally, municipal securities include all other instruments that directly or indirectly provide economic exposure to income which is derived from municipalities (such as municipal leases). The securities in which the Fund invests may have fixed rates of return or floating or variable rates.
The Fund will invest in municipal securities of any maturity. As part of its investments in municipal securities, the Fund will also have the ability to invest up to 100% of the Fund’s total assets in below investment grade or unrated securities. Such securities are also known as “junk bonds,” “high yield bonds” and “non-investment grade bonds.” Junk bonds also include unrated securities that the Fund’s adviser believes to be of comparable quality to debt securities that are rated below investment grade. Junk bonds are also called “high yield bonds” and “non-investment grade bonds.” These securities generally are rated in the fifth or lower rating categories (for example, BB+ or lower by S&P and Ba1 or lower by Moody's). These securities generally offer a higher yield than investment grade securities, but involve a high degree of risk. A security’s quality is determined at the time of purchase and securities that are rated investment grade or the unrated equivalent may be downgraded or decline in credit quality such that subsequently they would be deemed to be below investment grade.
The Fund will also invest in investment grade securities. Investment grade securities carry a minimum rating of Baa3, BBB–, or BBB– by Moody’s, S&P, or Fitch, respectively, or the equivalent by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) or are unrated but deemed by the adviser to be of comparable quality. Under normal market conditions, the Fund intends to invest a significant portion of its Assets in securities rated BBB/BB by S&P and Fitch, Baa/Ba by Moody’s or unrated securities that the adviser deems to be of equivalent quality.
The Fund may also invest in common shares or preferred shares of unaffiliated closed-end funds. The Fund generally will limit its investments in a single closed-end fund to 5% of its total assets and in all registered investment companies including closed-end funds (other than money market funds) to 10% of its total assets.
The Fund may invest in shares of exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The ETFs in which the Fund may invest include registered investment companies that seek to track the performance of a particular market index or security. These indexes include not only broad-based market indexes but more specific indexes as well, including those relating to particular sectors, markets, regions or industries. Ordinarily, the Fund must limit its investments in a single ETF to 5% of its total assets and in all ETFs and other investment companies
8  |  J.P. Morgan Exchange-Traded Funds

to 10% of its total assets. The SEC adopted an exemptive rule that allows any fund to disregard these 5% and 10% limitations, subject to certain conditions. The price movement of an index-based ETF may not track the underlying index and may result in a loss. In addition, ETFs may trade at a price above (premium) or below (discount) their net asset value, especially during periods of significant market volatility or stress, causing investors to pay or receive significantly more or less than the value of the ETF’s underlying portfolio when they purchase or sell their ETF shares, respectively.
The Fund may invest in obligations of the U.S. Treasury, including Treasury bills, bonds and notes. These investments carry different interest rates, maturities and issue dates. The interest on these securities may be exempt from state and local income taxes.
Up to 20% of the Fund’s net assets may be invested in securities subject to federal income tax.
The Fund may also invest in zero-coupon securities, Treasury futures and credit default swaps as part of its main investment strategy.
The Fund also invests in inverse floaters and restricted securities.
Up to 100% of the Fund’s assets may be invested in municipal securities, the interest on which may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax for individuals and corporations. Shareholders who are subject to the federal alternative minimum tax may have all or a portion of their income from the Fund subject to federal income tax. In addition, corporate shareholders may be required to take the interest on municipal bonds into account in determining their alternative minimum taxable income. Any capital gain distributed by the Fund generally will be taxable.
The Fund may invest in inverse floaters. An inverse floater is a derivative instrument, typically created by a trust that divides a municipal security into two securities, a short-term tax-exempt floating rate security (sometimes referred to as a “tender option bond”) and a long-term tax-exempt floating rate security (referred to as a “residual certificate” or “inverse floater”) that pays interest at rates that move in the opposite direction of the yield on the short-term floating rate security. The purchaser of a “tender option bond” has the right to tender the security periodically for repayment of the principal value. As short-term interest rates rise, inverse floaters produce less current income (and, in extreme cases, may pay no income) and as short-term interest rates fall, inverse floaters produce more current income.
To facilitate the creation of inverse floaters, the Fund may purchase a fixed-rate municipal security and subsequently transfer it to a broker-dealer (the sponsor), which deposits the municipal security in a trust. The trust issues the residual certificates and short-term floating rate securities. The trust documents enable the Fund to withdraw the underlying bond to unwind or “collapse” the trust (upon tendering the residual certificate and paying the value of the short-term bonds and certain other costs). The Fund may also purchase inverse floaters created by municipal issuers directly or by other parties that have deposited municipal bonds into a sponsored trust.
Investment Process: The adviser buys and sells securities and investments for the Fund based on its view of individual securities and market sectors. Taking a long-term approach, the adviser primarily looks for individual fixed income investments that it believes will perform well over market cycles. The adviser is value oriented and makes investment decisions after performing a risk/reward analysis that includes an evaluation of interest rate risk, credit risk, duration, liquidity, any security pledge, and a review of the security’s attributes, such as the coupon, maturity, and any redemption and tender provisions. The adviser also factors in the overall investment strategy of the Fund, including its duration and its credit strategy, as well as the adviser’s interest rate outlook. The adviser also integrates financially material ESG factors as part of the Fund’s investment process (ESG Integration). ESG Integration is the systematic inclusion of ESG issues in investment analysis and investment decisions. In applying ESG Integration in the evaluation of individual municipal issuers, the adviser seeks to assess the impact of ESG factors on certain issuers in the universe in which the Fund may invest. The adviser’s assessment is based on an analysis of key opportunities and risks across sectors to seek to identify financially material issues with respect to the Fund’s investments in municipal issues and ascertain key issues that merit engagement with municipal issuers. These assessments may not be conclusive and securities that may be negatively impacted by such factors may be purchased and retained by the Fund while the Fund may divest or not invest in securities that may be positively impacted by such factors. In particular, ESG Integration does not change the Fund’s investment objective, exclude specific types of industries or companies or limit the Fund’s investable universe. The Fund is not designed for investors who wish to screen out particular types of companies or investments or are looking for Funds that meet specific ESG goals.
The Fund has flexibility to invest in derivatives and may use such instruments to manage duration, sector and yield curve exposure, credit and spread volatility and to respond to volatile market conditions. Derivatives, which are instruments that have a value based on another instrument, exchange rate or index, may also be used as substitutes for securities in which the Fund can invest. Although the use of derivatives is not a main strategy of the Fund, it may use futures contracts, options and swaps in connection with its principal strategies in order to hedge various investments, for risk management purposes and/or to increase the Fund’s income or gain to the Fund.

Additional Investment Strategies
The Fund may invest in loan assignments and participations (Loans). Loans will typically consist of senior secured floating rate loans, but may also include unsecured loans, second lien loans or more junior and bridge loans as well as commitments to purchase loans. Loans may be issued by obligors in the U.S. or in foreign or emerging markets. When the Fund acquires a loan assignment, the Fund typically will have a direct contractual relationship with the obligor; provided, however, the Fund may only be able to enforce its rights through an administrative agent. When the Fund acquires a loan participation, the Fund typically enters into a contractual relationship with the third party selling such participations, but not the borrower. As a result, the Fund assumes the credit risk of the seller of the loan participation and any other parties interpositioned between the Fund and the borrower. Under a loan participation, the Fund may have no direct rights to enforce the terms of the loan against the borrower. The Fund may not benefit directly from the collateral supporting the loan in which it has purchased the loan participations or assignments.
The Fund may invest in municipal mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities and municipal housing authority obligations. The Fund may also invest in bank obligations, corporate debt securities and auction rate securities.
NON-FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES
An investment objective is fundamental if it cannot be changed without the consent of a majority of the outstanding Shares of the
Fund. The Fund’s investment objective is not fundamental and may be changed without the consent of a majority of the outstanding
Shares of the Fund.
Securities Lending. The Fund may engage in securities lending to increase its income. Securities lending involves the lending of securities owned by the Fund to financial institutions such as certain broker-dealers in exchange for cash collateral. The Fund will invest cash collateral in one or more money market funds advised by the adviser or its affiliates. The adviser or its affiliates will receive additional compensation from the affiliated money market funds on the Fund’s investment in such money market funds. During the term of the loan, the Fund is entitled to receive amounts equivalent to distributions paid on the loaned securities as well as the return on the cash collateral investments. Upon termination of the loan, the Fund is required to return the cash collateral to the borrower plus any agreed upon rebate. Cash collateral investments will be subject to market depreciation or appreciation, and the Fund will be responsible for any loss that might result from its investment of cash collateral. If the adviser determines to make securities loans, the value of the securities loaned may not exceed 33 13% of the value of total assets of the Fund. Loan collateral (including any investment of that collateral) is not subject to the percentage limitations regarding the Fund’s investments described elsewhere in this prospectus. Securities lending is not a principal strategy of the Fund.
Please note that the Fund also may use other non-principal strategies that are not described in this section, but which are described in the “Investment Practices” section later in the prospectus and in the Statement of Additional Information.
Investment Risks
There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.
The main risks associated with investing in the Fund are summarized in the “Risk/Return Summary” at the front of this prospectus. In addition to the Fund’s main risks, the Fund may be subject to additional risks in connection with investments and strategies used by the Fund from time to time. The table below identifies main risks and some of the additional risks for the Fund.
The Fund is subject to management risk and may not achieve its objective if the adviser’s expectations regarding particular instruments or markets are not met.

An investment in the Fund or any other fund may not provide a complete investment program. The suitability of an investment in the Fund should be considered based on the investment objective, strategies and risks described in this prospectus, considered in light of all of the other investments in your portfolio, as well as your risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizons. You may want to consult with a financial advisor to determine if the Fund is suitable for you.
The Fund is subject to the main risks designated as such in the table below, any of which may adversely affect the Fund’s net asset value (NAV), market price, performance and ability to meet its investment objective. The Fund may also be subject to additional risks that are noted in the table below, as well as those that are not described herein but which are described in the Statement of Additional Information.

Main Risks
Additional Risks
Municipal Obligations Risk. The risk of a municipal obligation generally depends on the financial and credit status of the issuer. Changes in the financial health of a municipal issuer may make it difficult for the issuer to make interest and principal payments when due. A number of municipalities have had significant financial problems recently, and these and other municipalities could, potentially, continue to experience significant financial problems resulting from lower tax revenues and/or decreased aid from state and local governments in the event of an economic downturn. This could decrease the Fund’s income or hurt its ability to preserve capital and liquidity.
Under some circumstances, municipal obligations might not pay interest unless the state legislature or municipality authorizes money for that purpose. Some securities, including municipal lease obligations, carry additional risks. For example, they may be difficult to trade or interest payments may be tied only to a specific stream of revenue.
Municipal bonds may be more susceptible to downgrades or defaults during recessions or similar periods of economic stress. Factors contributing to the economic stress on municipalities may include lower property tax collections as a result of lower home values, lower sales tax revenue as a result of consumers cutting back spending and lower income tax revenue as a result of a higher unemployment rate. In addition, since some municipal obligations may be secured or guaranteed by banks and other institutions, the risk to the Fund could increase if the banking or financial sector suffers an economic downturn and/or if the credit ratings of the
July 14, 2023  |  11

More About the Fund (continued)
institutions issuing the guarantee are downgraded or at risk of being downgraded by a national rating organization. If such events were to occur, the value of the security could decrease or the value could be lost entirely, and it may be difficult or impossible for the Fund to sell the security at the time and the price that normally prevails in the market.
In addition to being downgraded, an insolvent municipality may file for bankruptcy. For example, Chapter 9 of the Bankruptcy Code provides a financially distressed municipality protection from its creditors while it develops and negotiates a plan for reorganizing its debts. “Municipality” is defined broadly by the Bankruptcy Code as a “political subdivision or public agency or instrumentality of a state” and may include various issuers of securities in which the Fund invests. The reorganization of a municipality’s debts may include extending debt maturities, reducing the amount of principal or interest, refinancing the debt or taking other measures, which may significantly affect the rights of creditors and the value of the securities issued by the municipality and the value of the Fund’s investments. Interest on municipal obligations, while generally exempt from federal income tax, may not be exempt from federal alternative minimum tax.
High Yield Securities Risk. The Fund invests in instruments including junk bonds, Loans and instruments of municipal issuers that are highly leveraged, less creditworthy or financially distressed. These investments are considered to be speculative and may be subject to greater risk of loss, greater sensitivity to economic changes, valuation difficulties and potential illiquidity. Such investments are subject to additional risks including subordination to other creditors, no collateral or limited rights in collateral, lack of a regular trading market, extended settlement periods, liquidity risks, prepayment risks, potentially less protections under the federal securities laws and lack of publicly available information. High yield securities and Loans that are deemed to be liquid at the time of purchase may become illiquid.
In recent years, there has been a broad trend of weaker or less restrictive covenant protections in the high yield market. Among other things, under such weaker or less restrictive covenants, borrowers might be able to exercise more flexibility with respect to certain activities than borrowers who are subject to stronger or more protective covenants. For example, borrowers might be able to incur more debt, including secured debt, return more capital to shareholders, remove or reduce assets that are designated as collateral securing high yield securities, increase the claims against assets that are permitted against collateral securing high yield securities or otherwise manage their business in ways that could impact creditors negatively. In addition, certain privately held borrowers might be permitted to file less frequent, less detailed or less timely financial reporting or other information, which could negatively impact the value of the high yield securities issued by such borrowers. Each of these factors might negatively impact the high yield instruments held by the Fund.
No active trading market may exist for some instruments and certain investments may be subject to restrictions on resale. In addition, the settlement period for Loans is uncertain as there is no standardized settlement schedule applicable to such investments. The inability to dispose of the Fund’s securities and other investments in a timely fashion could result in losses to the Fund. Because some instruments may have a more limited secondary market, liquidity risk is more pronounced for the Fund than for funds that invest primarily in other types of fixed income instruments or equity securities. When bonds and other instruments securities are prepaid, the Fund may have to reinvest in instruments with a lower yield or fail to recover additional amounts (i.e., premiums) paid for these instruments resulting in an unexpected capital loss and/or a decrease in the amount of dividends and yield.
General Market Risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. Securities in the Fund’s portfolio may underperform in comparison to securities in general financial markets, a particular financial market or other asset classes due to a number of factors, including inflation (or expectations for inflation), deflation (or expectations for deflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products or resources, market instability, financial system instability, debt crises and downgrades, embargoes, tariffs, sanctions and other trade barriers, regulatory events, other governmental trade or market control programs and related geopolitical events. In addition, the value of the Fund’s investments may be negatively affected by the occurrence of global events such as war, terrorism, environmental disasters, natural disasters or events, country instability, and infectious disease epidemics or pandemics.
For example, the outbreak of COVID-19 negatively affected economies, markets and individual companies throughout the world, including those in which the Fund invests. The effects of this, or any future, pandemic to public health and business and market conditions may have a significant negative impact on the performance of the Fund’s investments, increase the Fund’s volatility, negatively impact the Fund’s arbitrage and pricing mechanisms, exacerbate pre-existing political, social and economic risks to the Fund, and negatively impact broad segments of businesses and populations. In addition, governments, their regulatory agencies, or self-regulatory organizations have taken or may take actions in response to a pandemic that affect the instruments in which the Fund invests, or the issuers of such instruments, in ways that could have a significant negative impact on the Fund’s investment performance. The ultimate impact of any pandemic and the extent to which the associated conditions and governmental responses impact the Fund will also depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, difficult to accurately predict and subject to frequent changes.
12  |  J.P. Morgan Exchange-Traded Funds

Alternative Minimum Tax Risk. The Fund may invest all of its assets in municipal bonds, the interest on which may be subject to the federal alternative minimum tax. Shareholders who are subject to the federal alternative minimum tax may have all or a portion of their income from the Fund subject to federal income tax. In addition, corporate shareholders will, with limited exceptions, be required to take the interest on municipal bonds into account in determining their alternative minimum taxable income. Any capital gain distributed by the Fund may be taxable.
Cash Transactions Risk. Unlike certain ETFs, the Fund may effect its creations and redemptions in cash or partially in cash. As a result, an investment in the Fund may be less tax-efficient than an investment in such ETFs. Other ETFs generally are able to make in-kind redemptions and avoid realizing gains in connection with transactions designed to raise cash to meet redemption requests. If the Fund effects a portion of redemptions for cash, it may be required to sell portfolio securities in order to obtain the cash needed to distribute redemption proceeds, which also involves transaction costs. If the Fund recognizes gain on these sales, this generally will cause the Fund to recognize gain it might not otherwise have recognized if it were to distribute portfolio securities in-kind, or to recognize such gain sooner than would otherwise be required. The Fund generally intends to distribute these gains to shareholders to avoid being taxed on this gain at the Fund level and otherwise comply with the special tax rules that apply to it. This strategy may cause shareholders to be subject to tax on gains they would not otherwise be subject to, or at an earlier date than, if they had made an investment in a different ETF.
Interest Rate Risk. The Fund invests in debt securities that change in value based on changes in interest rates. If rates increase, the value of these investments generally declines. On the other hand, if rates fall, the value of these investments generally increases. Your investment will decline in value if the value of these investments decreases. Securities with greater interest rate sensitivity and longer maturities generally are subject to greater fluctuations in value. Many factors can cause interest rates to rise. Some examples include central bank monetary policy, rising inflation rates and general economic conditions. The Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk due to certain changes or uncertainty in monetary policy.
Debt market conditions are highly unpredictable and some parts of the market are subject to dislocations. Beginning in March 2022, the Federal Reserve Board began increasing interest rates and has signaled the possibility of further increases. It is difficult to accurately predict the pace at which the Federal Reserve Board will increase interest rates any further, or the timing, frequency or magnitude of any such increases, and the evaluation of macro-economic and other conditions could cause a change in approach in the future. Any such changes could be sudden and could expose debt markets to significant volatility and reduced liquidity for Fund investments.
Credit Risk. There is a risk that issuers and/or a counterparty to a security, contract, repurchase agreement or other investment will not make payments when due or default completely on securities, repurchase agreements or other investments held by the Fund. The risk of defaults across issuers and/or counterparties increases in adverse market and economic conditions, including the conditions resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Such defaults could result in losses to the Fund. In addition, the credit quality of securities held by the Fund may be lowered if an issuer’s or a counterparty’s financial condition changes. Lower credit quality may lead to greater volatility in the price of a security and in Shares of the Fund. Lower credit quality also may affect liquidity and make it difficult for the Fund to sell the security. Although U.S. government securities issued directly by the U.S. government are guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury, other U.S. government securities issued by an agency or instrumentality of the U.S. government may not be. No assurance can be given that the U.S. government would provide financial support to its agencies or instrumentalities if not required to do so by law. Prices of the Fund’s investments may be adversely affected if any of the issuers or counterparties it is invested in are subject to an actual or perceived deterioration in their credit quality. Credit spreads may increase, which may reduce the market values of the Fund’s securities. Credit spread risk is the risk that economic and market conditions or any actual or perceived credit deterioration may lead to an increase in the credit spreads (i.e., the difference in yield between two securities of similar maturity but different credit quality) and a decline in price of the issuer’s securities.
Floating and Variable Rate Securities Risk. Floating and variable rate securities provide for a periodic adjustment in the interest rate paid on the securities. The rate adjustment intervals may be regular and range from daily up to annually, or may be based on an event, such as a change in the prime rate. Floating and variable rate securities may be subject to greater liquidity risk than other debt securities, meaning that there may be limitations on the Fund’s ability to sell the securities at any given time. Such securities also may lose value.
Structured Product Risk. Structured products, such as tender option bonds, involve structural complexities and potential risks that may not be present where a municipal security is owned directly. These enhanced risks may include additional counter-party risk (the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its contractual obligations) and call risk (the risk that the instruments will be called and the proceeds may need to be reinvested). Additionally, an active trading market for such instruments may not exist. To the extent that a structured product provides a put, the Fund may receive a lower interest rate in return for such feature and will be subject to the risk
July 14, 2023  |  13

More About the Fund (continued)
that the put provider will be unable to honor the put feature (purchase the security). Finally, short-term municipal or tax-exempt structured products may present tax issues not presented by investments in other short-term municipal or tax-exempt securities. These issues might be resolved in a manner adverse to the Fund.
Restricted Securities Risk. Restricted securities are securities that cannot be offered for public resale unless registered under the applicable securities laws or that have a contractual restriction that prohibits or limits their resale. Restricted securities include private placement securities that have not been registered under the applicable securities laws, such as Rule 144A securities, and securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers that are issued pursuant to Regulation S. Private placements are generally subject to strict restrictions on resale. Restricted securities may not be listed on an exchange and may have no active trading market. Restricted securities may be illiquid. The Fund may be unable to sell a restricted security on short notice or may be able to sell them only at a price below current value. It may be more difficult to determine a market value for a restricted security. Also, the Fund may get only limited information about the issuer of a restricted security, so it may be less able to predict a loss. In addition, if Fund management receives material non-public information about the issuer, the Fund may as a result be unable to sell the securities. Certain restricted securities may involve a high degree of business and financial risk and may result in substantial losses.
Derivatives Risk. The Fund may use derivatives in connection with its investment strategies. Derivatives may be riskier than other types of investments because they may be more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions than other types of investments and could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund’s original investment. Derivatives are subject to the risk that changes in the value of a derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. The use of derivatives may not be successful, resulting in losses to the Fund and the cost of such strategies may reduce the Fund’s returns. Certain derivatives also expose the Fund to counterparty risk (which is the risk that the derivative counterparty will not fulfill its contractual obligations), and to the credit risk of the derivative counterparty. In addition, the Fund may use derivatives for non-hedging purposes, which increases the Fund’s potential for loss. Certain derivatives are synthetic instruments that attempt to replicate the performance of certain reference assets. With regard to such derivatives, the Fund does not have a claim on the reference assets and is subject to enhanced counterparty risk.
Investing in derivatives will result in a form of leverage. Leverage involves special risks. The Fund may be more volatile than if the Fund had not been leveraged because the leverage tends to exaggerate any effect on the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities. Registered investment companies are limited in their ability to engage in derivative transactions.
The Fund’s transactions in futures contracts, swaps and other derivatives could also affect the amount, timing and character of distributions to shareholders which may result in the Fund realizing more short-term capital gain and ordinary income subject to tax at ordinary income tax rates than it would if it did not engage in such transactions, which may adversely impact the Fund’s after-tax return. Derivatives may not perform as expected, so the Fund may not realize the intended benefits. When used for hedging, the change in value of a derivative may not correlate as expected with the currency, security or other risk being hedged. In addition, given their complexity, derivatives expose the Fund to risks of mispricing or improper valuations.
The possible lack of a liquid secondary market for derivatives and the resulting inability of the Fund to sell or otherwise close a derivatives position could expose the Fund to losses and could make derivatives more difficult for the Fund to value accurately. Derivatives also can expose the Fund to derivative liquidity risk relating to the payment obligations created thereunder and legal and operational risk.
In addition to the risks associated with derivatives in general, the Fund will also be subject to risks related to swap agreements. Because swap agreements are not exchange-traded, but are private contracts into which the Fund and a swap counterparty enter as principals, the Fund may experience a loss or delay in recovering assets if the counterparty defaults on its obligations.
WHAT IS A DERIVATIVE?
Derivatives are securities or contracts (for example, futures and options) that derive their value from the performance of underlying
assets or securities.
Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) and/or Other Investment Company Risk. The Fund may invest in shares of other investment companies and ETFs. Shareholders bear both their proportionate share of the Fund’s expenses and similar expenses of the underlying investment company or ETF when the Fund invests in shares of another investment company or ETF. The Fund is subject to the risks associated with the ETF’s or investment company’s investments. ETFs and companies that invest in commodities or currencies are subject to the risks associated with direct investments in commodities or currencies. The price and movement of an ETF or closed-end fund designed to track an index may not track the index and may result in a loss. In addition, closed-end funds that trade on an exchange often trade at a price below their NAV (also known as a discount). Certain ETFs or closed-end funds traded on exchanges may be thinly traded and experience large spreads between the “ask” price quoted by a seller and the “bid” price offered by a buyer.
14  |  J.P. Morgan Exchange-Traded Funds

Government Securities Risk. The Fund invests in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and instrumentalities (such as securities issued by the Government National Mortgage Association (Ginnie Mae), the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae) or the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (Freddie Mac)). U.S. government securities are subject to market risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Securities, such as those issued or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae or the U.S. Treasury, that are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, are guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity and the market prices for such securities will fluctuate. Notwithstanding that these securities are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, circumstances could arise that would prevent the payment of interest or principal. This would result in losses to the Fund. Securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. government related organizations, such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and no assurance can be given that the U.S. government will provide financial support. Therefore, U.S. government related organizations may not have the funds to meet their payment obligations in the future. U.S. government securities include zero coupon securities, which tend to be subject to greater market risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities.
Debt Securities and Other Callable Securities Risk. As part of its main investment strategy, the Fund invests in debt securities. The issuers of these securities and other callable securities may be able to repay principal in advance, especially when interest rates fall. Changes in prepayment rates can affect the return on investment and yield of these securities. When debt obligations are prepaid and when securities are called, the Fund may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield. The Fund also may fail to recover additional amounts (i.e., premiums) paid for securities with higher interest rates, resulting in an unexpected capital loss.
Inverse Floating Rate Instrument Risk. The market value of an inverse floater residual certificate can be more volatile than that of a conventional fixed-rate bond having similar credit quality, maturity and redemption provisions. Inverse floater residual certificates entail a degree of leverage because the trust issues short-term securities in a ratio to the residual certificates with the underlying long-term bond providing collateral for the obligation to pay the principal value of the short-term securities if and when they are tendered. If the Fund has created the inverse floater by depositing a long-term bond into a trust, it may be required to provide additional collateral for the short-term securities if the value of the underlying bond deposited in the trust fails.
An inverse floater that has a higher degree of leverage is typically more volatile with respect to its price and income than an inverse floater having a lower degree of leverage. Under inverse floater arrangements, if the remarketing agent that offers the short-term securities for sale is unable to sell them, or if the holders tender (or put) them for repayment of principal and the remarketing agent is unable to remarket them, the remarketing agent may cause the trust to be collapsed, and in the case of floaters created by the Fund, the Fund will then be required to repay the principal amount of the tendered securities. During times of market volatility, illiquidity or uncertainty, the Fund could be required to sell other portfolio holdings at a disadvantageous time to raise cash to meet that obligation.
Because of the accounting treatment for inverse floaters created by the Fund’s transfer of a municipal bond to a trust, the Fund’s financial statements will reflect these transactions as “secured borrowings,” which affects the Fund’s Statements of Assets and Liabilities and Operations, expense ratios and the Schedule of Investments will include the underlying municipal bond. The Fund’s annual fund operating expenses will include certain expenses and fees related to the Fund’s investments. Some of those expenses may be liabilities with respect to interest paid on short-term floating rate notes issued by the trusts whose inverse floater certificates are held by the Fund. Under accounting rules, the Fund will also recognize additional income in an amount that directly corresponds to these expenses and, as a result the Fund’s NAVs per share and total returns will not be affected by these additional expenses.
Taxability Risk. The Fund’s investments in municipal securities rely on the opinion of the issuer’s bond counsel that the interest paid on those securities will not be subject to federal income tax. Tax opinions are generally provided at the time the municipal security is initially issued. However, after the Fund buys a security, the Internal Revenue Service may determine that a bond issued as tax-exempt should in fact be taxable and the Fund’s dividends with respect to that bond might be subject to federal income tax.
Zero-Coupon, Pay-In-Kind and Deferred Payment Securities Risk. The market value of a zero-coupon, pay-in-kind or deferred payment security is generally more volatile than the market value of interest-paying securities, and is more likely to respond to a greater degree to changes in interest rates and credit quality than other fixed income securities with similar maturities that pay interest periodically. In addition, federal income tax law requires that the holder of a zero-coupon bond accrue a portion of the discount at which the bond was purchased as taxable income each year, even though the holder receives no interest payment on the bond during the year. The Fund must distribute substantially all of its net income (including non-cash income attributable to zero-coupon bonds) to its shareholders each year to maintain its status as a regulated investment company and to eliminate tax at the Fund level. Accordingly, such accrued discount must be taken into account in determining the amount of taxable distributions to shareholders. The Fund may consequently have to dispose of portfolio securities under disadvantageous circumstances to generate cash to satisfy such distribution requirements. These actions may reduce the assets to which the Fund’s expenses could otherwise be allocated and may reduce the Fund’s rate of return.

More About the Fund (continued)
In addition, (1) the higher yields and interest rates on certain pay-in-kind securities (PIK) reflect the payment deferral and increased credit risk associated with such instruments and such investments may represent a significantly higher credit risk than coupon loans; (2) PIK securities may have higher price volatility because their continuing accruals require continuing judgments about the collectability of the deferred payments and the value of any associated collateral; (3) PIK interest has the effect of generating investment income and (4) the deferral of PIK interest may also reduce the loan-to-value ratio at a compounding rate.
Industry and Sector Focus Risk. At times, the Fund may increase the relative emphasis of its investments in a particular industry or sector. The prices of securities of issuers in a particular industry or sector may be more susceptible to fluctuations due to changes in economic or business conditions, government regulations, availability of basic resources or supplies, contagion risk within a particular industry or sector or to other industries or sectors, or other events that affect that industry or sector more than securities of issuers in other industries and sectors. To the extent that the Fund increases the relative emphasis of its investments in a particular industry or sector, the value of the Fund’s Shares may fluctuate in response to events affecting that industry or sector.
Market Trading Risk
Risk that Shares of the Fund May Trade at Prices Other Than NAV. Shares of the Fund may trade on the Exchange at prices above, below or at their most recent NAV. The NAV of the Fund’s Shares, which is calculated at the end of each business day, will generally fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund’s holdings. The market prices of the Shares will also fluctuate, in some cases materially, in accordance with changes in NAV and the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings, as well as the relative supply of and demand for the Shares on the Exchange. Differences between secondary market prices of Shares and the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings may be due largely to supply and demand forces in the secondary market, which may not be the same forces as those influencing prices for securities held by the Fund at a particular time.
Given the fact that Shares can be created and redeemed by authorized participants in Creation Units, the adviser believes that large discounts or premiums to the NAV of Shares should not be sustained in the long-term. While the creation/redemption feature is designed to make it likely that Shares normally will trade close to the value of the Fund’s holdings, market prices are not expected to correlate exactly to the Fund’s NAV due to timing reasons, supply and demand imbalances and other factors. In addition, disruptions to creations and redemptions, adverse developments impacting market makers, authorized participants or other market participants, or high market volatility may result in market prices for Shares of the Fund that differ significantly from its NAV or to the intraday value of the Fund’s holdings. As a result of these factors, among others, the Fund’s Shares may trade at a premium or discount to NAV, especially during periods of significant market volatility.
Given the nature of the relevant markets for certain of the securities for the Fund, Shares may trade at a larger premium or discount to NAV than shares of other kinds of ETFs.
Cost of Buying or Selling Shares. When you buy or sell Shares of the Fund through a broker, you will likely incur a brokerage commission or other charges imposed by brokers. In addition, the market price of Shares, like the price of any exchange-traded security, includes a “bid-ask spread” charged by the market makers or other participants that trade the particular security. The spread of the Fund’s Shares varies over time based on the Fund’s trading volume and market liquidity and may increase if the Fund’s trading volume, the spread of the Fund’s underlying securities, or market liquidity decrease. In times of severe market disruption, including when trading of the Fund’s holdings may be halted, the bid-ask spread may increase significantly. This means that Shares may trade at a discount to the Fund’s NAV, and the discount is likely to be greatest during significant market volatility.
Short Selling Risk. Shares of the Fund, similar to shares of other issuers listed on a stock exchange, may be sold short and are therefore subject to the risk of increased volatility and price decreases associated with being sold short.
No Guarantee of Active Trading Market Risk. While Shares are listed on the Exchange, there can be no assurance that active trading markets for the Shares will be maintained by market makers or by authorized participants. JPMorgan Distribution Services, Inc., the distributor of the Fund’s Shares (the Distributor), does not maintain a secondary market in the Shares.
Trading Issues Risk. Trading in Shares on the Exchange may be halted due to market conditions or for reasons that, in the view of the Exchange, make trading in Shares inadvisable. In addition, trading in Shares on the Exchange is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to the Exchange “circuit breaker” rules. If a trading halt or unanticipated early closing of the Exchange occurs, a shareholder may be unable to purchase or sell Shares of the Fund.
There can be no assurance that the requirements of the Exchange necessary to maintain the listing of the Fund will continue to be met or will remain unchanged.
16  |  J.P. Morgan Exchange-Traded Funds

Authorized Participant Concentration Risk. Only an authorized participant may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the Fund. The Fund has a limited number of intermediaries that act as authorized participants and none of these authorized participants is or will be obligated to engage in creation or redemption transactions. To the extent that these intermediaries exit the business or are unable to or choose not to proceed with creation and/or redemption orders with respect to the Fund and no other authorized participant creates or redeems, Shares may trade at a discount to NAV and possibly face trading halts and/or delisting.
Transactions and Liquidity Risk. The Fund could experience a loss when selling securities to meet redemption requests and its liquidity may be negatively impacted. The risk of loss increases if the redemption requests are large or frequent, occur in times of overall market turmoil or declining prices for the securities sold, or when the securities the Fund wishes to, or is required to, sell are illiquid. To the extent a large proportion of Shares are held by a small number of shareholders (or a single shareholder) including funds or accounts over which the adviser or its affiliates have investment discretion, the Fund is subject to the risk that these shareholders will purchase or redeem Shares in large amounts rapidly or unexpectedly, including as a result of an asset allocation decision made by the adviser or its affiliates. To the extent these larger shareholders transact in the secondary market, such transactions may account for a large percentage of the Fund’s trading volume on the Exchange, which may have a material effect (upward or downward) on the market price of Shares. In addition to the other risks described in this section, these transactions could adversely affect the ability of the Fund to conduct its investment program. The Fund may be unable to sell illiquid securities at its desired time or price or the price at which the securities have been valued for purposes of the Fund’s NAV. Illiquidity can be caused by a drop in overall market trading volume, an inability to find a ready buyer, or legal restrictions on the securities’ resale. Other market participants may be attempting to sell debt securities at the same time as the Fund, causing downward pricing pressure and contributing to illiquidity. The capacity for bond dealers to engage in trading or “make a market” in debt securities has not kept pace with the growth of bond markets. Liquidity and valuation risk may be magnified in a rising interest rate environment, when credit quality is deteriorating or in other circumstances where investor redemptions from fixed income funds may be higher than normal. Certain securities that were liquid when purchased may later become illiquid, particularly in times of overall economic distress. Similarly, large purchases of Shares may adversely affect the Fund’s performance to the extent that the Fund is delayed in investing new cash and is required to maintain a larger cash position than it ordinarily would. Large redemptions also could accelerate the realization of capital gains, increase the Fund’s transaction costs and impact the Fund’s performance. To the extent redemptions are effected in cash, an investment in the Fund may be less tax-efficient than an investment in an ETF that distributes portfolio securities entirely in-kind.
Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage-related and asset-backed securities, including certain municipal housing authority obligations, differ from conventional debt securities and are subject to certain additional risks because principal is paid back over the life of the security rather than at maturity. The value of these securities will be influenced by the factors affecting the housing market and the assets underlying such securities. As a result, during periods of declining asset values, difficult or frozen credit markets, significant changes in interest rates, or deteriorating economic conditions, mortgage-related and asset-backed securities may decline in value, face valuation difficulties, become more volatile and/or become illiquid. These securities are also subject to prepayment and call risk. Gains and losses associated with prepayments will increase/decrease the income available for distribution by the Fund and the Fund’s yield. In periods of declining interest rates, the Fund may be subject to contraction risk which is the risk that borrowers will increase the rate at which they prepay the maturity value of mortgages and other obligations. When mortgages and other obligations are prepaid and when securities are called, the Fund may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield or fail to recover additional amounts (i.e., premiums) paid for securities with higher interest rates, resulting in an unexpected capital loss and/or a decrease in the amount of dividends and yield. In periods of either rising or declining interest rates, the Fund may be subject to extension risk which is the risk that the expected maturity of an obligation will lengthen in duration due to a decrease in prepayments. As a result, in certain interest rate environments, the Fund may exhibit additional volatility. The structure of some of these securities may be complex and there may be less available information than for other types of debt securities. Additionally, asset-backed, mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities are subject to risks associated with their structure and the nature of the assets underlying the securities and the servicing of those assets. Certain asset-backed, mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities may face valuation difficulties and may be less liquid than other types of asset-backed, mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities, or debt securities.
The mortgage loans underlying privately issued mortgage-related securities may not be subject to the same underwriting requirements for the underlying mortgages that are applicable to those mortgage-related securities that have government or government-sponsored entity guarantees. As a result, the mortgage loans underlying privately issued mortgage-related securities may have less favorable collateral, credit risk or other underwriting characteristics than government or government-sponsored mortgage-related securities and have wider variances in a number of terms including interest rate, term, size, purpose and borrower characteristics. In addition, certain mortgage-related securities which may include loans that originally qualified under standards established by
July 14, 2023  |  17

More About the Fund (continued)
government-sponsored entities (for example, certain REMICs that include Fannie Mae mortgages) are not considered as government securities for purposes of the Fund’s investment strategies or policies. There is no government or government-sponsored guarantee for such privately issued investments.
The Fund may invest in collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs). CMOs are debt obligations collateralized by mortgage loans or mortgage pass-through securities. CMOs are issued in multiple classes, and each class may have its own interest rate and/or final payment date. A class with an earlier final payment date may have certain preferences in receiving principal payments or earning interest. As a result, the value of some classes in which the Fund invests may be more volatile and may be subject to higher risk of non-payment.
The values of interest-only (IO) and principal-only (PO) mortgage-backed securities are more volatile than other types of mortgage-related securities. They are very sensitive not only to changes in interest rates, but also to the rate of prepayments. A rapid or unexpected increase in prepayments can significantly depress the price of IO securities, while a rapid or unexpected decrease could have the same effect on PO securities. In addition, because there may be a drop in trading volume, an inability to find a ready buyer, or the imposition of legal restrictions on the resale of securities, these instruments may be illiquid.
Auction Rate Securities Risk. The auction rate municipal securities the Fund will purchase will typically have a long-term nominal maturity for which the interest rate is regularly reset through a “Dutch” auction. The interest rate set by the auction is the lowest interest rate that covers all securities offered for sale. While this process is designed to permit auction rate securities to be traded at par value, there is a risk that an auction will fail due to insufficient demand for the securities, which may adversely affect the liquidity and price of auction rate securities. Moreover, between auctions, there may be no secondary market for these securities, and sales conducted on a secondary market may not be on terms favorable to the seller. Thus, with respect to liquidity and price stability, auction rate securities may differ substantially from cash equivalents, notwithstanding the frequency of auctions and the credit quality of the security.
Loan Risk. The Fund may invest in Loans including Loans that are rated below investment grade. Like other high yield, corporate debt instruments, such Loans are subject to an increased risk of default in the payment of principal and interest as well as the other risks described under “Interest Rate Risk,”“Credit Risk” and “High Yield Securities Risk.” Although certain Loans are secured by collateral, the Fund could experience delays or limitations in realizing on such collateral or have its interest subordinated to other indebtedness of the obligor. Loans are vulnerable to market sentiment such that economic conditions or other events may reduce the demand for Loans and cause their value to decline rapidly and unpredictably. Although the Fund limits its investments in illiquid securities to no more than 15% of the Fund’s net assets at the time of purchase, Loans that are deemed to be liquid at the time of purchase may become illiquid. In recent years, there has been a broad trend of weaker or less restrictive covenant protections in the Loan market. Among other things, under such weaker or less restrictive covenants, borrowers might be able to exercise more flexibility with respect to certain activities than borrowers who are subject to stronger or more protective covenants. For example, borrowers might be able to incur more debt, including secured debt, return more capital to shareholders, remove or reduce assets that are designated as collateral securing Loans, increase the claims against assets that are permitted against collateral securing Loans or otherwise manage their business in ways that could impact creditors negatively. In addition, certain privately held borrowers might be permitted to file less frequent, less detailed or less timely financial reporting or other information, which could negatively impact the value of the Loans issued by such borrowers. Each of these factors might negatively impact the Loans held by the Fund. No active trading market may exist for some of the Loans and certain Loans may be subject to restrictions on resale. The inability to dispose of Loans in a timely fashion could result in losses to the Fund. In addition, the settlement period for Loans is uncertain as there is no standardized schedule applicable to such investments. Certain Loans may take more than seven days to settle. Because some Loans that the Fund invests in may have a more limited secondary market, liquidity and valuation risk is more pronounced for the Fund than for funds that invest primarily in other types of fixed income instruments or equity securities. Typically, Loans are not registered securities and are not listed on any national securities exchange. Consequently, there may be less public information available about the Fund’s investments and the market for certain Loans may be subject to irregular trading activity, wide bid/ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods. As a result, the Fund may be more dependent upon the analytical ability of its adviser.
When the Fund acquires a loan participation, the Fund typically enters into a contractual relationship with the lender or third party selling such participations, but not the borrower. As a result, the Fund assumes the credit risk of the seller of the loan participation and any other parties interpositioned between the Fund and the borrower. The Fund may not benefit directly from the collateral supporting the loan in which it has purchased the loan participations or assignments.
Affiliates of the adviser may participate in the primary and secondary market for Loans. Because of limitations imposed by applicable law, the presence of the adviser’s affiliates in the Loan market may restrict the Fund’s ability to acquire some Loans, affect the timing of such acquisition or affect the price at which the Loan is acquired. Also, because the adviser may wish to invest in the publicly traded securities of an obligor, it may not have access to material non-public information regarding the obligor to which other investors have access.
18  |  J.P. Morgan Exchange-Traded Funds

Loans are subject to prepayment risks. Gains and losses associated with prepayments will increase or decrease the Fund’s yield and the income available for distribution by the Fund. When Loans are prepaid, the Fund may have to reinvest in securities with a lower yield or fail to recover additional amounts (i.e. premiums) paid for Loans, resulting in an unexpected capital loss and/or a decrease in the amount of dividends and yields.
Securities Lending Risk. The Fund may engage in securities lending. Securities lending involves counterparty risk, including the risk that the loaned securities may not be returned or returned in a timely manner and/or a loss of rights in the collateral if the borrower or the lending agent defaults. This risk is increased when the Fund’s loans are concentrated with a single or limited number of borrowers. In addition, the Fund bears the risk of loss in connection with its investments of the cash collateral it receives from the borrower. To the extent that the value or return of the Fund’s investments of the cash collateral declines below the amount owed to a borrower, the Fund may incur losses that exceed the amount it earned on lending the security. In situations where the adviser does not believe that it is prudent to sell the cash collateral investments in the market, the Fund may borrow money to repay the borrower the amount of cash collateral owed to the borrower upon return of the loaned securities. This will result in financial leverage, which may cause the Fund to be more volatile because financial leverage tends to exaggerate the effect of any increase or decrease in the value of the Fund’s portfolio securities.
Cyber Security Risk. As the use of technology has become more prevalent in the course of business, the Fund has become more susceptible to operational and financial risks associated with cyber security, including: theft, loss, misuse, improper release, corruption and destruction of, or unauthorized access to, confidential or highly restricted data relating to the Fund and its shareholders; and compromises or failures to systems, networks, devices and applications relating to the operations of the Fund and its service providers. Cyber security risks may result in financial losses to the Fund and its shareholders; the inability of the Fund to transact business with its shareholders; delays or mistakes in the calculation of the Fund’s NAV or other materials provided to shareholders; the inability to process transactions with shareholders or other parties; violations of privacy and other laws; regulatory fines, penalties and reputational damage; and compliance and remediation costs, legal fees and other expenses. The Fund’s service providers (including, but not limited to, the adviser, any sub-advisers, administrator, transfer agent, and custodian or their agents), financial intermediaries, companies in which the Fund invests and parties with which the Fund engages in portfolio or other transactions also may be adversely impacted by cyber security risks in their own businesses, which could result in losses to the Fund or its shareholders. While measures have been developed which are designed to reduce the risks associated with cyber security, there is no guarantee that those measures will be effective, particularly since the Fund do not directly control the cyber security defenses or plans of its service providers, financial intermediaries and companies in which it invests or with which it do business.
Regulatory and Legal Risk. U.S. and non-U.S. governmental agencies and other regulators regularly implement additional regulations and legislators pass new laws that affect the investments held by the Fund, the strategies used by the Fund or the level of regulation or taxation applying to the Fund (such as regulations related to investments in derivatives and other transactions). These regulations and laws may adversely impact the investment strategies, performance, costs and operations of the Fund or taxation of shareholders.
Volcker Rule Risk. Pursuant to Section 619 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and certain rules promulgated thereunder known as the Volcker Rule, if the adviser and/or its affiliates own 25% or more of the outstanding ownership interests of the Fund after the permitted seeding period from the implementation of the Fund’s investment strategy, the Fund could be subject to restrictions on trading that would adversely impact the Fund’s ability to execute its investment strategy. Generally, the permitted seeding period is three years from the implementation of the Fund’s investment strategy. As a result, the adviser and/or its affiliates may be required to reduce their ownership interests in the Fund at a time that is sooner than would otherwise be desirable, which may result in the Fund’s liquidation or, if the Fund is able to continue operating, may result in losses, increased transaction costs and adverse tax consequences as a result of the sale of portfolio securities.
For more information about risks associated with the types of investments that the Fund purchases, please read the “Risk/Return Summary” at the front of this prospectus and “Investment Practices” section later in the prospectus, and the Statement of Additional Information.
Conflicts of Interest
An investment in a Fund is subject to a number of actual or potential conflicts of interest. For example, the Adviser and/or its affiliates provide a variety of different services to a Fund, for which the Fund compensates them. As a result, the Adviser and/or its affiliates have an incentive to enter into arrangements with a Fund, and face conflicts of interest when balancing that incentive against the best interests of a Fund. The Adviser and/or its affiliates also face conflicts of interest in their service as investment adviser to other clients, and, from time to time, make investment decisions that differ from and/or negatively impact those made by the Adviser on behalf of a Fund. In addition, affiliates of the Adviser provide a broad range of services and products to their clients and are major participants in the global currency, equity, commodity, fixed income and other markets in which a Fund invests or will invest. In
July 14, 2023  |  19

More About the Fund (continued)
certain circumstances by providing services and products to their clients, these affiliates’ activities will disadvantage or restrict the Funds and/or benefit these affiliates. The Adviser may also acquire material non-public information which would negatively affect the Adviser’s ability to transact in securities for a Fund. JPMorgan and the Funds have adopted policies and procedures reasonably designed to appropriately prevent, limit or mitigate conflicts of interest. In addition, many of the activities that create these conflicts of interest are limited and/or prohibited by law, unless an exception is available. For more information about conflicts of interest, see the Potential Conflicts of Interest section in the Statement of Additional Information.
Temporary Defensive and Cash Positions
For liquidity and to respond to unusual market conditions, the Fund may invest all or most of its total assets in cash and cash equivalents for temporary defensive purposes. These investments may result in a lower yield than lower-quality or longer-term investments.
WHAT IS A CASH EQUIVALENT?
Cash equivalents are highly liquid, high-quality instruments with maturities of three months or less on the date they are purchased.
They include securities issued by the U.S. government, its agencies and instrumentalities, repurchase agreements, certificates of
deposit, bankers’ acceptances, commercial paper, money market mutual funds, and bank deposit accounts.
While the Fund is engaged in a temporary defensive position, it may not meet its investment objective. These investments may also be inconsistent with the Fund’s main investment strategies. Therefore, the Fund will pursue a temporary defensive position only when market conditions warrant.

Disclosure of Portfolio Holdings
A description of the policies and procedures with respect to the disclosure of the Fund’s portfolio securities is available in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.
Additional Fee Waiver and/or Expense Reimbursement
Service providers to the Fund may, from time to time, voluntarily waive all or a portion of any fees to which they are entitled and/or reimburse certain expenses as they may determine from time to time. The Fund’s service providers may discontinue or modify these voluntary actions at any time without notice. Performance for the Fund, when available, will reflect the voluntary waiver of fees and/or the reimbursement of expenses, if any. Without these voluntary waivers and/or expense reimbursements, performance would be less favorable.
Additional Historical Performance Information
The historical performance for the Fund (as represented by the Class R6 Shares of the predecessor fund) in the bar chart prior to 1/1/19 and in the performance table prior to the Class R6 Shares’ inception on 11/1/18 is based on the Class I Shares of the predecessor fund, which invest in the same portfolio of securities but are offered in a different prospectus. The actual returns of Class R6 Shares of the predecessor fund would have been different than those shown because Class R6 Shares have different expenses than Class I Shares.

Purchase and Redemption of Shares
Buying and Selling Shares
In the Secondary Market. Most investors will buy and sell Shares of the Fund in secondary market transactions through brokers. Shares of the Fund are listed and traded on the secondary market on the Exchange. Shares can be bought and sold throughout the trading day like other publicly traded shares. There is no minimum investment. Although Shares are generally purchased and sold in “round lots” of 100 Shares, brokerage firms typically permit investors to purchase or sell Shares in smaller “odd lots,” at no per-Share price differential. When buying or selling Shares through a broker, you will incur customary brokerage commissions and charges, and you may pay some or all of the spread between the bid and the offered price in the secondary market on each leg of a round trip (purchase and sale) transaction. The spread varies over time for Shares of the Fund based on the Fund’s trading volume and market liquidity, and is generally lower if the Fund has a lot of trading volume and market liquidity.
Shares of the Fund trade on the Exchange at prices that may differ to varying degrees from the daily NAV of the Shares.
Directly with the Fund. The Fund’s Shares are issued or redeemed by the Fund at NAV per Share only in a large specified number of Shares called a “Creation Unit” or multiples thereof. Investors such as market makers, large investors and institutions who wish to deal in Creation Units directly with the Fund must have entered into an authorized participant agreement with the Distributor, or purchase through a dealer that has entered into such an agreement. Set forth below is a brief description of the procedures applicable to purchases and redemptions of Creation Units.

Beneficial Ownership. The Depository Trust Company (DTC) serves as securities depository for the Shares. (The Shares may be held only in book-entry form; stock certificates will not be issued.) DTC, or its nominee, is the record or registered owner of all outstanding Shares. Beneficial ownership of Shares will be shown on the records of DTC or its participants (described below). Beneficial owners of Shares are not entitled to have Shares registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of certificates in definitive form and are not considered the registered holder thereof. Accordingly, to exercise any rights of a holder of Shares, each beneficial owner must rely on the procedures of: (i) DTC; (ii) “DTC Participants” (i.e., securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations), some of whom (and/or their representatives) own DTC; and (iii) “Indirect Participants” (i.e., brokers, dealers, banks and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a DTC Participant, either directly or indirectly, through which such beneficial owner holds its interests). The Trust understands that under existing industry practice, in the event the Trust requests any action of holders of Shares, or a beneficial owner desires to take any action that DTC, as the record owner of all outstanding Shares, is entitled to take, DTC would authorize the DTC Participants to take such action and that the DTC Participants would authorize the Indirect Participants and beneficial owners acting through such DTC Participants to take such action and would otherwise act upon the instructions of beneficial owners owning through them. As described above, the Trust recognizes DTC or its nominee as the owner of all Shares for all purposes. For more detailed information, see “Book Entry Only System” in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.
Premium/Discount Information
The Fund has not commenced operations as of the date of this prospectus and, therefore, do not have information about the differences between the Fund’s daily market price on the Exchange (Market Price) and its NAV. When available, information regarding how often the Shares of the Fund traded on the Exchange at a price above (i.e., at a premium) or below (i.e., at a discount) the NAV of the Fund for the most recently completed calendar year and the most recently completed calendar quarters since that year (or the effective date of the reorganization of the predecessor fund into the Fund, if shorter) can be found at www.jpmorganfunds.com.
Pricing Shares
Investors that purchase or sell Shares on the secondary market transact at the Market Price on the Exchange. The Market Price may differ from the Fund’s daily NAV and can be affected by market forces of supply and demand, economic conditions and other factors.
The Exchange disseminates the approximate value of Shares of the Fund periodically throughout the trading day. This approximate value should not be viewed as a “real-time” update of the NAV per Share of the Fund because the approximate value may not be calculated in the same manner as the NAV, which is computed only once a day. The approximate value is generally determined by using both current market quotations and/or price quotations obtained from broker-dealers and other market intermediaries that may trade in the portfolio securities held by the Fund. The Fund is not involved in, or responsible for, the calculation or dissemination of the approximate value and the Fund does not make any representation or warranty as to its accuracy.
NAV is calculated each business day as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), which is typically 4:00 p.m. E.T. On occasion, the NYSE will close before 4:00 p.m. E.T. When that happens, NAV will be calculated as of the time the NYSE closes. The Fund will not treat an intraday unscheduled disruption or closure in the NYSE trading as a closure of the NYSE, and will calculate NAV as of 4:00 p.m. E.T. if the particular disruption or closure directly affects only the NYSE. The price at which a purchase of a Creation Unit is effected is based on the next calculation of NAV after the order is received in proper form in accordance with this prospectus. To the

Purchase and Redemption of Shares (continued)
extent the Fund invests in securities that are primarily listed on foreign exchanges or other markets that trade on weekends or other days when the Fund does not price its Shares, the value of the Fund’s Shares may change on days when you will not be able to purchase or redeem your Shares. The NAV per share of the Fund is equal to the value of all its assets minus its liabilities, divided by the number of outstanding Shares.
Securities for which market quotations are readily available are generally valued at their current market value. Other securities and assets, including securities for which market quotations are not readily available, market quotations are determined not to be reliable, or their value has been materially affected by events occurring after the close of trading on the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded but before the Fund’s NAV is calculated, may be valued at fair value in accordance with policies and procedures adopted by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Fair value represents a good faith determination of the value of a security or other asset based upon specifically applied procedures. Fair valuation may require subjective determinations. There can be no assurance that the fair value of an asset is the price at which the asset could have been sold during the period in which the particular fair value was used in determining the Fund’s NAV. Use of fair value prices and certain current market valuations could result in a difference between the prices used to calculate the Fund’s NAV and the prices used by the Underlying Index, which, in turn, could result in a difference between the Fund’s performance and the performance of the Underlying Index.
Equity securities listed on a North American, Central American, South American or Caribbean securities exchange are generally valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which the security is principally traded. Other foreign equity securities are fair valued using quotations from independent pricing services, as applicable. The value of securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. is generally the NASDAQ official closing price.
Fixed income securities are valued using prices supplied by an approved independent third party or affiliated pricing services or broker/dealers. Those prices are determined using a variety of inputs and factors as more fully described in the Statement of Additional Information.
Assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars at the prevailing market rates from an approved independent pricing service as of 4:00 p.m. E.T.
Shares of ETFs are generally valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which the ETF is principally traded. Shares of other open-end investment companies are valued at their respective NAVs.
Options traded on U.S. securities exchanges are valued at the composite mean price, using the National Best Bid and Offer quotes.
Options traded on foreign exchanges are valued at the settled price, or if no settled price is available, at the last sale price available prior to the calculation of the Fund’s NAV and will be fair valued by applying fair value factors provided by independent pricing services, as applicable, for any options involving equity reference obligations listed on exchanges other than North American, Central American, South American or Caribbean securities exchanges.
Exchange traded futures are valued at the last sale price available prior to the calculation of the Fund’s NAV. Any futures involving equity reference obligations listed on exchanges other than North American, Central American, South American or Caribbean securities exchanges will be fair valued by applying fair value factors provided by independent pricing services, as applicable.
Non-listed over-the-counter futures are valued utilizing market quotations provided by approved pricing services.
Swaps and structured notes are priced generally by an approved independent third party or affiliated pricing service or at an evaluated price provided by a counterparty or broker/dealer.
Any derivatives involving equity reference obligations listed on exchanges other than North American, Central American, South American or Caribbean securities exchanges will be fair valued by applying fair value factors provided by independent pricing services, as applicable.
Frequent Purchases and Redemptions
The Fund imposes no restrictions on the frequency of purchases and redemptions. The Board of Trustees evaluated the risks of market timing activities by the Fund’s shareholders when they considered that no restriction or policy was necessary. The Board considered that, unlike mutual funds, the Fund issues and redeems its Shares at NAV only in Creation Units, plus a small amount of cash, and the Fund’s Shares may be purchased and sold on the Exchange at prevailing Market Prices.

Shareholder Information
Taxes on Distributions
The Fund intends to elect to be treated and intends to qualify the taxable year as a regulated investment company. A regulated investment company is not subject to tax at the corporate level on income and gains from investments that are distributed to shareholders. The Fund’s failure to qualify as a regulated investment company would result in corporate-level taxation and, consequently, a reduction in income available for distribution to shareholders.
The Fund can earn income and realize capital gain. The Fund deducts any expenses and then pays out the earnings, if any, to shareholders as distributions.
The Fund generally distributes net investment income, if any, at least on a monthly basis. The Fund will distribute net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. For the taxable year, the Fund will distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains.
If, at the close of the quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of the value of the Fund’s total assets consists of tax-exempt interest obligations, the Fund will be eligible to designate distributions of interest derived from tax-exempt-interest obligations as “exempt interest dividends.” As described in the section entitled “What are the Fund’s main investment strategies?” for the Fund, the Fund invest primarily in various types of municipal bonds, the interest on which is exempt from federal income tax. Distributions that are properly reported as exempt-interest dividends generally are not subject to federal income tax but may be subject to state and local taxes and, in certain instances, may result in liability for the federal alternative minimum tax, both for individual and corporate shareholders. You should consult your tax advisor concerning your own tax situation.
Shares of the Fund may not be suitable for tax-exempt investors since such investors are generally tax exempt and, therefore, would not gain any additional benefit from the Fund's dividends being tax exempt.
Shareholders who receive social security or railroad retirement benefits should also consult their tax advisors to determine what effect, if any, an investment in the Fund may have on the federal taxation of their benefits. Exempt-interest dividends generally are included in income for purposes of determining the amount of benefits that are taxable.
The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in securities that generate income subject to federal, state, and/or local taxes. For Federal income tax purposes, distributions of net investment income that are not properly reported as exempt-interest dividends generally are taxable as ordinary income from dividends. Dividends of net investment income paid to a non-corporate U.S. shareholder that are properly reported as qualified dividend income generally will be taxable to such shareholder at preferential rates. The maximum individual federal income tax rate applicable to “qualified dividend income” is either 15% or 20%, depending on whether the individual’s income exceeds certain threshold amounts. The amount of dividend income that may be so reported by the Fund generally will be limited to the aggregate of the eligible dividends received by the Fund. In addition, the Fund must meet certain holding period and other requirements with respect to the shares on which the Fund received the eligible dividends, and the non-corporate U.S. shareholder must meet certain holding period and other requirements with respect to the Fund. The amount of the Fund’s distributions that would otherwise qualify for this favorable tax treatment may be reduced as a result of the Fund’s securities lending activities or high portfolio turnover rate. Dividends of net investment income that are not reported as either qualified dividend income or exempt-interest dividend income and dividends of net short-term capital gain will be taxable to a U.S. shareholder as ordinary income. It is unlikely that dividends from the Fund will qualify to a significant extent for designation as qualified dividend income.
Distributions of net capital gain (that is, the excess of the net gains from the sale of investments that the Fund owned for more than one year over the net losses from investments that the Fund owned for one year or less) that are properly reported by the Fund as capital gain dividends will be taxable as long-term capital gain, regardless of how long you have held your Shares in the Fund. The maximum individual federal income tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains is generally either 15% or 20%, depending on whether the individual’s income exceeds certain threshold amounts. Distributions of net short-term capital gain (that is, the excess of any net short-term capital gain over net long-term capital loss), if any, will be taxable to U.S. shareholders as ordinary income. Capital gain of a corporate shareholder is taxed at the same rate as ordinary income.
An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and capital gain distributions received from the Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund Shares, but excluding any exempt-interest dividends received from the Fund) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds certain threshold amounts.
If you buy Shares of the Fund just before a distribution, you will be subject to tax on the entire amount of the taxable distribution you receive. Distributions are taxable to you even if they are paid from income or gains earned by the Fund before your investment (and thus were included in the price you paid for your Fund Shares). Any gain resulting from the sale or exchange of Fund Shares generally will be taxable as long-term or short-term gain, depending upon how long you have held your Shares.
July 14, 2023  |  25

Shareholder Information (continued)
The Fund’s investments in certain debt obligations, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, and derivative instruments may require the Fund to accrue and distribute income not yet received. In order to generate sufficient cash to make the requisite distributions, the Fund may be required to liquidate other investments in its portfolio that it otherwise would have continued to hold, including at times when it is not advantageous to do so.
The Fund’s transactions in futures contracts, short sales, swaps and other derivatives will be subject to special tax rules, the effect of which may be to accelerate income to the Fund, defer losses to the Fund, cause adjustments in the holding periods of the Fund’s securities, and convert short-term capital losses into long-term capital losses. These rules could therefore affect the amount, timing and character of distributions to shareholders. The Fund’s use of these types of transactions may result in the Fund realizing more short-term capital gain and ordinary income subject to tax at ordinary income tax rates than it would if it did not engage in such transactions.
Investors should consult their advisers about state and local tax consequences of the investment in the Fund. The information below is only a general summary based on current statutes and regulations as well as current policies of the state, all of which may change possibly with retroactive effect.
Please see the Statement of Additional Information for additional discussion of the tax consequences of the above-described and other investments to the Fund and its shareholders.
The dates on which net investment income and capital gain dividends, if any, will be distributed are available online at www.jpmorganfunds.com.
Early in each calendar year, you will receive a notice showing the amount of distributions you received during the preceding calendar year and the tax status of those distributions.
Any foreign shareholders would generally be subject to U.S. tax-withholding on distributions by the Fund, as discussed in the Statement of Additional Information.
Any investor for whom the Fund does not have a valid Taxpayer Identification Number may be subject to backup withholding.
Taxes on Exchange-Listed Shares Sales
Currently, any capital gain or loss realized upon a sale of Shares is generally treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the Shares have been held for more than one year and as short-term capital gain or loss if the Shares have been held for one year or less. Capital loss realized on the sale or exchange of Shares held for six months or less will be treated as long-term capital loss to the extent of any capital gain dividends received by the shareholder. The ability to deduct capital losses may be limited.
Taxes on Purchase and Redemption of Creation Units
At the time of purchase, an Authorized Participant who exchanges equity securities for Creation Units generally will recognize a gain or loss. The gain or loss will be equal to the difference between the market value of the Creation Units at the time and the exchanger’s aggregate basis in the securities surrendered and the cash paid. At redemption, a person who exchanges Creation Units for equity securities will generally recognize a gain or loss equal to the difference between the exchanger’s basis in the Creation Units and the aggregate market value of the securities received and the cash received in connection with the redemption. The Internal Revenue Service, however, may assert that a loss realized upon an exchange of securities for Creation Units cannot be deducted currently under the rules governing “wash sales” on the basis that there has been no significant change in economic position. Persons exchanging securities should consult their own tax advisor with respect to whether the wash sale rules apply and when a loss might be deductible.
Under current federal tax laws, any capital gain or loss realized upon redemption of Creation Units is generally treated as long-term capital gain or loss if the Shares have been held for more than one year and as a short-term capital gain or loss if the Shares have been held for one year or less.
If you purchase or redeem Creation Units, you will be sent a confirmation statement showing how many and at what price you purchased or sold Shares.
The above is a general summary of tax implications of investing in the Fund. Because each investor’s tax consequences are unique, please consult your tax advisor to see how investing in the Fund and, for individuals and S corporations, selection of a particular cost method of accounting will affect your own tax situation.

Availability of Proxy Voting Record
The Trustees have delegated the authority to vote proxies for securities owned by the Fund to JPMIM. When available, a copy of the Fund’s voting record for the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or on the Fund’s website at www.jpmorganfunds.com no later than August 31 of each year. The Fund’s proxy voting record will include, among other things, a brief description of the matter voted on for each portfolio security, and will state how each vote was cast, for example, for or against the proposal.
Tax-Advantaged Product Structure
Unlike interests in many conventional mutual funds, the Shares are traded throughout the day on a national securities exchange, whereas mutual fund interests are typically only bought and sold at closing NAVs. The Shares have been designed to be tradable in the secondary market on a national securities exchange on an intra-day basis, and to be created and redeemed in Creation Units at each day’s next calculated NAV. Shares are created and redeemed principally in kind. The in-kind arrangements are designed to protect ongoing shareholders from adverse effects on the Fund’s portfolio that could arise from frequent cash creation and redemption transactions. In a conventional mutual fund, redemptions can have an adverse tax impact on taxable shareholders because the mutual fund may need to sell portfolio securities to obtain cash to meet fund redemptions. These sales may generate taxable gains for the shareholders of the mutual fund, whereas the Shares’ in-kind redemption mechanism generally will not lead to a tax event for the Fund or its ongoing shareholders.
Other Information
For purposes of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (1940 Act), the Fund is treated as a registered investment company. Section 12(d)(1) of the 1940 Act restricts investments by investment companies in the securities of other investment companies, including Shares of the Fund. Registered investment companies are permitted to invest in the Fund beyond the limits set forth in Section 12(d)(1), subject to certain terms and conditions.

Investment Practices (continued)
Risk related to certain investments held by the Fund:
Credit risk The risk that a financial obligation will not be met by the issuer of a security or the counterparty to a contract, resulting in a loss to the purchaser.
Currency risk The risk that currency exchange rate fluctuations may reduce gains or increase losses on foreign investments.
Environmental risk The risk that an owner or operator of real estate may be liable for the costs associated with hazardous or toxic substances located on the property.
Extension risk The risk that a rise in interest rates will extend the life of a mortgage-backed security to a date later than the anticipated prepayment date, causing the value of the investment to fall.
Foreign investment risk The risk associated with higher transaction costs, delayed settlements, currency controls and adverse economic developments. This also includes the risk that fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect an investment. Adverse changes in exchange rates may erode or reverse any gains produced by foreign currency-denominated investments and may widen any losses. Exchange rate volatility also may affect the ability of an issuer to repay U.S. dollar-denominated debt, thereby increasing credit risk.
Government securities risk U.S. government securities are subject to market risk, interest rate risk and credit risk. Securities, such as those issued or guaranteed by Ginnie Mae or the U.S. Treasury, that are backed by the full faith and credit of the United States, are guaranteed only as to the timely payment of interest and principal when held to maturity and the market prices for such securities will fluctuate. Circumstances could arise that would prevent the payment of interest or principal. Securities issued or guaranteed by certain U.S. government-related organizations, such as Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and no assurance can be given that the U.S. government will provide financial support.
High yield securities risk The risk that the Fund may invest in high yield, high risk securities (also known as junk bonds) which are considered to be speculative. These investments may be issued by companies which are highly leveraged, less creditworthy or financially distressed. Non-investment grade debt securities can be more sensitive to short-term corporate, economic and market developments. During periods of economic uncertainty and change, the market price of the Fund’s investments and the Fund’s net asset value may be volatile. Furthermore, though these investments generally provide a higher yield than higher-rated debt securities, the high degree of risk involved in these investments can result in substantial or total losses. These securities are subject to greater risk of loss, greater sensitivity to economic changes, valuation difficulties, and a potential lack of a secondary or public market for securities. The market price of these securities can change suddenly and unexpectedly.
Interest rate risk The risk that a change in interest rates will adversely affect the value of an investment. The value of fixed income securities generally moves in the opposite direction of interest rates (decreases when interest rates rise and increases when interest rates fall). The Fund may face a heightened level of interest rate risk due to certain changes in monetary policy, such as an interest rate increase by the Federal Reserve.
Investment company risk If the Fund invests in shares of another investment company, shareholders would bear not only their proportionate share of the Fund’s expenses, but also similar expenses of the investment company. The price movement of an investment company that is an ETF may not track the underlying index and may result in a loss.
Leverage risk The risk that gains or losses will be disproportionately higher than the amount invested.
Liquidity risk The risk that the holder may not be able to sell the security at the time or price it desires.
Management risk The risk that a strategy used by the Fund’s management may fail to produce the intended result. This includes the risk that changes in the value of a hedging instrument will not match those of the asset being hedged. Incomplete matching can result in unanticipated risks.
Market risk The risk that when the market as a whole declines, the value of a specific investment will decline proportionately. This systematic risk is common to all investments and the mutual funds that purchase them.
Natural event risk The risk that a natural disaster, such as a hurricane or similar event, will cause severe economic losses and default in payments by the issuer of the security.
Political risk The risk that governmental policies or other political actions will negatively impact the value of the investment.
Portfolio quality risk The risks associated with below investment grade securities including greater risk of default, greater sensitivity to interest rates and economic changes, potential valuation difficulties, and sudden and unexpected changes in credit quality.
Prepayment risk The risk that declining interest rates or other factors will result in unexpected prepayments, causing the value of the investment to fall.
Tax risk The risk that the issuer of the securities will fail to comply with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, which could cause adverse tax consequences. Also the risk that the tax treatment of municipal or other securities could be changed by Congress thereby affecting the value of outstanding securities.
Valuation risk The risk that the estimated value of a security does not match the actual amount that can be realized if the security is sold.
Zero-Coupon Bond risk The risk that the market value of a zero-coupon bond is generally more volatile than the market value of other fixed income securities with similar maturities that pay interest periodically. In addition, federal income tax law requires that the holder of a zero-coupon bond accrue a portion of the discount at which the bond was purchased as taxable income each year, even though the holder receives no interest payment on the bond during the year. The Fund must distribute substantially all of its net income (including non-cash income attributable to zero-coupon bonds) to its shareholders each year to maintain its status as a regulated investment company and to eliminate tax at the Fund level. Accordingly, such accrued discount must be taken into account in determining the amount of taxable distributions to shareholders. The Fund may consequently have to dispose of portfolio securities under disadvantageous circumstances to generate cash to satisfy such distribution requirements. These actions may reduce the assets to which the Fund’s expenses could otherwise be allocated and may reduce the Fund’s rate of return.
