The Prospectus section entitled “SGI U.S. Large Cap Equity Fund – Summary Section – Performance Information” is amended and restated in its entirety as shown below:

 

Performance Information

 

The chart below illustrates the performance of the Fund's Class I Shares (the Class with the longest performance). The information shows you how the Fund's performance has varied year by year and provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund. The chart assumes reinvestment of dividends and distributions. As with all such investments, past performance (before and after taxes) is not an indication of future results. Performance reflects fee waivers in effect. If fee waivers were not in place, the Fund's performance would be reduced. Updated performance information may be obtained at www.sgiam.com or by calling 1-855-744-8500.

 

TOTAL RETURNS FOR THE CALENDAR YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31*

 

 

 

*The returns in the bar chart are for Class I Shares. Class A Shares and Class C Shares would have substantially similar annual returns because each class of shares would have invested in the same portfolio of securities, and the annual returns would differ only to the extent that the classes have different expenses. The Fund’s Class A Shares are subject to a sales charge (load). Sales charges (loads) or account fees are not reflected in the bar chart and if these amounts were reflected, returns would be less than those shown.

 

Best and Worst Quarterly Performance (for the period reflected in the chart above):

 

Best Quarter: 13.53% (quarter ended March 31, 2013)

Worst Quarter: -13.11% (quarter ended December 31, 2018)

 

 

 

AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS

 

The following table, which includes all applicable sales charges (loads) and account fees, compares the Fund's Class I, Class A and Class C Shares average annual total returns for the periods indicated to the average annual total returns of a broad-based securities market index for the same periods. Past performance (before and after taxes) is not necessarily an indicator of how the Fund will perform in the future.

The Prospectus section entitled “SGI Global Equity Fund – Summary Section – Performance Information” is amended and restated in its entirety as shown below:

 

Performance Information

 

Returns shown were generated under the management of the Fund’s former investment adviser and reflect a previous investment strategy. The Fund operated as a series of Scotia Institutional Funds prior to the close of business on March 21, 2014 (the "Predecessor Fund"). Before the Fund commenced operations, all of the assets and liabilities of the Predecessor Fund were transferred to the Fund in a tax-free reorganization (the "Reorganization"). The Reorganization occurred on March 21, 2014. As a result of the Reorganization, the Fund assumed the performance and accounting history of the Predecessor Fund prior to the date of the Reorganization. The performance shown for periods prior to March 21, 2014 is that of the Predecessor Fund.

 

The Board approved the Adviser to serve as the Global Equity Fund’s investment adviser effective January 1, 2017. Returns shown for periods prior to January 1, 2017 were generated under the management of the Global Equity Fund’s former investment adviser.

 

The chart below illustrates the performance of the Fund’s Class I Shares.
