Disclosure of Fund Expenses

October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

Examples. As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges (loads) and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and service (12b-1) fees, shareholder service fees and other Fund expenses. The following examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested on May 1, 2018 and held until October 31, 2018.

Actual Expenses. The first line under each class in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period May 1, 2018 – October 31, 2018” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes. The second line under each class in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Funds and other mutual funds. To do so, compare these 5% hypothetical examples with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges or redemption fees. Therefore, the second line under each class in the table below is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

ALPS | CoreCommodity Management CompleteCommodities^® Strategy Fund

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

The twelve month period ending on October 31, 2018 produced modestly negative returns for commodities, as measured by the diversified Bloomberg Commodities Total Return Index, down -1.73%. The ALPS | CoreCommodity CompleteCommodities^® Strategy Fund (“I” Shares—“JCRIX” or the “Fund”) delivered a net positive return of +1.42% (JCRAX was -4.52% at MOP, JCRCX was down -0.50% with CDSC and JCCSX was up 1.10%).

The Fund outperformed its benchmark, the Bloomberg Commodity Index Total Return (“BCOM”), by 315 basis points during this period (measured against the performance of the “I” shares). The Fund employs a strategy that combines an actively managed portfolio of commodity futures related exposure (collateralized by U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities – “TIPS”), commodity equities, and physical commodity ETF’s. At the end of October, the Fund allocated approximately 80% of its assets toward commodity futures related investments and approximately 20% of its assets in commodity equities. The Fund was more than 99% invested at the end of the period.

During the twelve-month period ending in October 2018, the Fund held sector weights which averaged approximately 41% energy, 34% agriculture, 15% industrial metals, and 10% precious metals. Within each sector, the Fund allocated differing quantities of individual commodities compared to BCOM weightings while maintaining an unleveraged, diversified portfolio.

In terms of overall weighting, the Fund's agricultural sector was relatively similar to the BCOM –34% for the Fund and 36% for BCOM. Interestingly, the Fund's greatest outperformance by sector, gross and net, occurred within agriculture. On a gross basis, the Fund’s agricultural sector outperformed the BCOM’s agricultural allocation by about 210 basis points. The Fund’s futures-related investments lost 4.6% for the year while BCOM’s agriculture sub-index total return recorded a 10.1% decline. The Fund’s allocation to agricultural producers (equities) was down -5.4% for the period, but also outperformed the BCOM agricultural sub-index. The primary driver of the outperformance on the futures side was individual weighting and selection. The Fund held a greater percentage of cotton futures relative to BCOM. Cotton prices were near the top in performance, up 15.41% for the year. We included an allocation of about 4% in cocoa futures in our agricultural sleeve. BCOM doesn’t have any cocoa futures. Cocoa prices rose by +2.86% year over year (ending in October 2018), contributing to the Fund’s outperformance. On the flip side, the Fund held less percentage weighting in both soybeans and lean hog futures than BCOM. These two components fell -19.90% and -12.43% respectively for the period. The negative performance had less impact in the Fund due to lighter weighting.

Energy prices were the best performers in the BCOM for the period. Brent North Sea crude led the way, posting a +31.59% year over year performance while West Texas Intermediate added +26.78%.The Fund held a significant overweight in this sector relative to BCOM, an average of 41% compared to 32% for BCOM. The Fund concentrated most of its overweight in petroleum and products. The Fund benefitted on a comparative basis to its benchmark, BCOM. Energy related producers (equities) did not fare as well as the futures, falling just about -100 basis

points for the year. However the combined performance of the Fund’s energy sector produced a total return of +16.8% vs. BCOM’s +18.2%. After adjusting for weighting in the total portfolio, the Fund outperformed BCOM by about 160 basis points in the energy sector.

Industrial metals provided the largest sector decline within the BCOM for the year. BCOM industrial sub-index total return moved significantly lower, down 12.8% for the twelve-month period ending in October 2018. All of the major industrial metals were down for the period. Zinc prices fell the most, down -20.03% while copper prices slipped by -15.49%. Aluminum prices traded lower, -11.18% for the year. Nickel registered a -8.40% loss. Some worries about potential slowing of global GDP growth rates kept industrial metals prices down. Also, the much anticipated infrastructure stimulus in the United States did not move forward as of the October close. The Fund held an underweight relative to BCOM in industrial metals, 15% vs. 17% for BCOM. The combined portfolio of futures and producers (equities) provided a total return of - 10.6%, about 60 basis points above BCOM industrial sub-index performance after adjusting for allocation differences.

Precious metals prices struggled during the year, declining by approximately -7.5% within the BCOM, as measured by the BCOM precious metals sub-index total return. The Fund held an underweight in this sector relative to BCOM, 10% vs 15% for the period. Gold prices went down modestly, -5.05%, while silver prices declined by -15.13%. The Fund’s combined portfolio of futures-related and commodity producer investments in precious metals declined by -11.2% compared to BCOM’s -7.5%. Adjusting for weightings in the Fund’s overall portfolio and for the whole BCOM, the difference in contribution to returns was negligible. The Fund’s precious metals allocation essentially performed in line with BCOM precious metals sub index for the period.

The US Dollar strengthened marginally during the year ending in October, +2.73% as measured by the US Dollar Index (“DXY”). Interest rates rose from about 1.60% on the US two-year Note to 2.87% by the end of October 2018. Since most commodities are priced in Dollars, commodity prices tend to be inversely related to Dollar moves. Additionally, rising interest rates may at times present headwinds to commodity price appreciation. That did not happen this time. We believe that stronger supply/demand fundamentals for many commodities overcame these potential detractors.

{The Fund’s top equity holdings at the end of October 2018 included Yara International (YAR NO) -4.82% YTD, Pilgrim’s Pride Corp (PPC US) - 43.14% YTD, Tyson Foods Inc (TSN US) -25.10% YTD, Marathon Petroleum Corporation (MPC US) +8.80% YTD, Marine Harvest NO (MHG NO) +49.06 % YTD, Holly Frontier Corp (HFC US) +33.86% YTD, Valero Energy Corp. (VLO US) +1.40% YTD, Ingredion Incorporated (INGR US) - 26.40% YTD, Kubota Corp (6326 JP) -19.00% YTD, Bunge Ltd (BG US) - 5.98% YTD }

TIPS and nominal US Treasuries are held by the fund to invest excess cash and as collateral for commodity futures related investments held in our Cayman Island subsidiary. The stated desire by the Federal Reserve to “normalize” rates and the Fed’s balance sheet has been a factor helping to move rates higher. We still believe that there may be

considerable resistance to raising rates from here. Certainly the pace of the interest rate hikes will likely be determined by the economic data, including readings on inflation. Nonetheless, we believe we may be nearing the end of what has been a significant multi-year rally in US treasury prices. As a result, we continue to invest in TIPS and nominal US Treasuries with limited duration exposure. At the end of October, our weighted average maturity was approximately 0.7 years in our TIPS and nominal US Treasury portfolio.

We strongly believe that the long term fundamental drivers of commodity demand and ultimately higher prices are still in place. Population growth is likely to remain unabated regardless of the economic environment in the US and Europe. A billion more people are likely to be added to the world population over the next decade or so. The trend of wealth distribution is tipping toward the developing world as those economies grow at faster rates relative to the slow or negative growth occurring in the developed countries. The improving global quality of life is contributing to ever increasing demand for raw materials and food. Incremental gains in disposable income in the developing nations have led to competition for the commodities needed for more complex and costly lifestyles.

While it is true that commodity prices have rallied significantly in percentage terms from the lows established in the first quarter of 2016, the absolute price levels of many commodities, including crude oil, have not gone high enough to stimulate the necessary capital expenditures to assure future supply growth to satisfy future demand. Producers need profit margins to operate, to explore for new sources, and to secure financing. Without robust capital investment, the world may essentially operate from “hand to mouth” for many key commodities. Ultimately that could lead to higher, more volatile prices if problems erupt or demand grows more than current expectations. The price cycle for many commodities seems to be shifting from favoring consumers to rewarding the producers. Commodities may become much more interesting from an investment point of view as sentiment for the asset class ascends with these potential price increases.

Performance data quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Current performance data may be higher or lower than actual data quoted. For the most current month-end performance data, please call 1-866-759-5679.

Maximum Offering Price (MOP) for Class A shares includes the Fund’s maximum sales charge of 5.50%. Performance shown at NAV does not include these sales charges and would have been lower had it been taken into account. If you invest $1 million or more, either as a lump sum or through the Fund’s accumulation or letter of intent programs, you can purchase Class A shares without an initial sales charge (load). A Contingent Deferred Sales Charge (“CDSC”) of 1.00% may apply to Class C shares redeemed within the first 12 months after a purchase, and on Class A shares redeemed within the first 18 months after a purchase in excess of $1 million. The Fund imposes a 2.00% redemption fee on shares held for less than 30 days.

Performance less than 1 year is cumulative.

¹ Thomson Reuters/CC CRB Total Return Index and the Bloomberg Commodity TR Index (formerly the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index) are unmanaged indices used as a measurement of change in commodity market conditions based on the performance of a basket of different commodities. Each index is composed of a different basket of commodities, a different weighting of the commodities in the basket, and a different re-balancing schedule. The indices are not actively managed and do not reflect any deduction for fees, expenses or taxes. An investor may not invest directly in an index.

Investments in securities of MLPs involve risks that differ from an investment in common stock. MLPs are controlled by their general partners, which generally have conflicts of interest and limited fiduciary duties to the MLP, which may permit the general partner to favor its own interests over the MLPs. The benefit you are expected to derive from the Fund’s investment in MLPs depends largely on the MLPs being treated as partnerships for federal income tax purposes. As a partnership, an MLP has no federal income tax liability at the entity level. Therefore, treatment of one or more MLPs as a corporation for federal income tax purposes could affect the Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective and would reduce the amount of cash available to pay or distribute to you. Legislative, judicial, or administrative changes and differing interpretations, possibly on a retroactive basis, could negatively impact the value of an investment in MLPs and therefore the value of your investment in the Fund.

Investing in commodity-related securities involves risk and considerations not present when investing in more conventional securities. The Fund may be more susceptible to high volatility of commodity markets.

Derivatives generally are more sensitive to changes in economic or market conditions than other types of investments; this could result in losses that significantly exceed the Fund's original investment.

The table does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of Fund shares.

This Fund is not suitable for all investors, and is subject to investment risks, including possible loss of the principal amount invested.

There is no guarantee that the Fund will continue to hold any one particular security or stay invested in any one particular company. The composition of the Fund's top holdings is subject to change. Performance figures are historical and reflect the change in share price, reinvested distributions, changes in net asset value, sales charges and capital gains distributions, if any.

ALPS | Kotak India Growth Fund

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

Performance  

ALPS | Kotak India Growth Fund (the “Fund”) was launched on February 14, 2011. During the 12-month period ended 31st Oct 2018 (hereinafter also referred to as “the period”), the Fund’s Class A Shares, INDAX, delivered a total return of -16.98% at Net Asset Value, Class C, INFCX, delivered -18.32% with CDSC, and Class I, INDIX, delivered -16.66%. The Fund underperformed the benchmark Nifty 500 Index (“NSE500”) which returned -16.51% during the period without taking into account sales charges for Class A and C Shares.

The period between November 2017 and October 2018 saw periods of high volatility both in foreign as well as domestic equities mainly led by US-China conflicts over trade which deteriorated to tariff wars, sudden spurt in crude prices on concerns of supply limitations post Iran sanctions and liquidity squeeze in Indian markets after the default of IL&FS.

Global commodity prices especially crude rallied in this period by 22% which put pressure on India’s Current Account Deficit (CAD) and consequently on the currency, which depreciated by 15% over this period. Global yields continued to rise and in particular for India, the spread between the Indian and the US 10yr yields saw marginal expansion of 20 bps. The US Federal Reserve increased the Fed funds rate four times in this period (December 2017, March 2018, June 2018 and September 2018), as expected by markets.

The RBI had raised its repo rate by 50 bps in this period. The minutes of the October MPC meeting reaffirmed the wait-and-watch mode of the members. Even as there was an acknowledgement of the upside risks to inflation over the foreseeable horizon, the volatile global macro conditions, more-than-expected benign inflation trajectory and the lagged impact of the last two rate hikes essentially put most of the members on the vigilant mode with the stance being changed to ‘calibrated tightening’ while staying off any policy rate hike in the October policy. The RBI Governor made clear that in the current rate cycle, a cut in the policy repo rate is off the table.

The Indian union budget for FY2019 was announced on Feb 1, 2018 and the budget offered a modest fiscal stimulus to infrastructure and rural economy. The government has budgeted (1) a 17% increase in taxation revenues, 10% increase in expenditure (10% increase in revenue expenditure and 10% increase in capital expenditure) and (3) Rs800 bn of divestment revenues versus FY2018RE figure of Rs1.0 tn. The government has introduced 10% long-term capital gains (LTCG) on shares from April 1, 2018 versus nil earlier. However, it will grandfather capital gains up to January 1, 2018. The government budgeted Rs1.6 tn (0.8% of GDP) towards the rural development through allocations in key sectors such as employment guarantee scheme, housing, irrigation, rural roads and connectivity and social welfare schemes targeted towards women and children.

Real GDP growth accelerated to 8.2% in 1QFY19 compared to 7.7% in 4QFY18 led by a strong favorable base effect and also pickup in a

sequential momentum. Nominal GDP growth improved sharply to 13.8% from 10.9% in 4QFY18. Real GVA growth picked up to 8% from 7.6% in 4QFY18 largely led by pickup in agriculture (5.3% from 4.5% in 4QFY18) and industrial growth (10.2% from 8.8% in 4QFY18). Within industry, manufacturing (13.5% from 9.1% in 4QFY18) and construction (8.7% from 11.5% in 4QFY18) were the key contributors. The sharp pickup in agriculture sector output was largely led by 8.1% growth in livestock products, forestry and fisheries (accounts for 44.9% of agriculture sector GVA). Meanwhile, the service sector growth moderated to 7.3% from 7.7% in 4QFY19.

Portfolio Composition  

As of 31st Oct 2018, Financials remains the largest sector (31.05% wt.), followed by information Technology (13.58%) and Materials (10.38%). The top 5 holdings in the portfolio are HDFC Bank, Infosys Ltd, ICICI Bank, Reliance Industries and ITC. Large active deviations in the portfolio are in Information Technology (+2.72% deviation from benchmark), Industrials (+1.92% deviation), Utilities (-2.96% deviation) and Energy (-2.39%). In terms of market capitalization focus, as of 31st Oct, the fund is invested 70.51% in large caps, 20.48% in midcaps and 5.29% in small-caps.

During the period, some of the names within our favored sectors where we initiated new positions and continue to hold as of this report are Astral Polytechnik, AU Small Finance Bank, Aurobindo Pharma, Team Lease and Titan Industries. Some of the stocks where we booked profit and exited completely include ACC, Akzo India, Arvind Lts, Bombay Stock Exchange, Federal Bank and Orient Cement.

Outlook  

Tax revenues (GST) in India have been trailing estimates. However for the month of October, as per finance ministry the GST tax collection has crossed Rs1 tn. mark and the government is hopeful that the momentum will sustain in November and December on account of festive demand and anti-evasion measure initiated by revenue department. Brent oil has cooled off nearly 13% from a peak of USD 85/bl at the end of September to about USD 74.5/bl as of the end of the Oct 2018. At the same time the INR has remained flat at about 73.4/USD during the month. India being a large net importer of oil, the sharp rise in price of oil and depreciation in INR in recent months has a direct negative bearing on India’s trade balance; stabilization on both fronts this month is positive for India’s macro. Inflation also has been in a moderate at 3.77% for September. All in all, while the stress in macro remains elevated, we have seen some moderation in recent weeks.

Large cap stocks have been large outperformers vs. mid and small cap stocks for much of 2018 and the valuation gap between large and mid-caps has narrowed meaningfully. Inflows in the domestic mutual fund have continued, albeit at lower levels, in recent months, despite subdued returns over last 8-10 months. In the near term market participants will keenly evaluate the impact of Iran sanctions on oil prices & US midterm election outcome along with trade policies. In India the progress of the earnings seasons and state elections are two important events which will have bearing on

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

Indian equity markets. Nifty presently trades at a fair valuation of 15.2x FY20E and 13.1x FY21E earnings (year ending March - Kotak Securities estimates), and stocks in general have seen fair amount of correction lately. Though it’s likely that that the in the near term the markets can remain volatile, the current levels of the market offers attractive levels for investors to take exposure to Indian markets from a medium to long term perspective.

ALPS | Smith Funds

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

Dear Shareholder,

The ALPS l Smith Capital Investors Funds were launched on June 29, 2018, and this is the first annual report for the Funds. We welcome you as a shareholder to the Funds and thank you for your trust. Our process is centered around performance, relationships and investing excellence. Our ultimate goal is to provide shareholders with a consistent, risk-adjusted return with a keen focus on capital preservation.

Performance Commentary as of 10/31/18

Since June 29, 2018, the Fund’s inception, the ALPS l Smith Capital Investors Total Return Bond Fund Class I outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Index by 1.86%, despite a modest increase in US Treasury rates including 34 basis points (“bps”) for the 2-year US Treasury, 24 bps for the 5-year US Treasury, 27 bps for the 10-year US Treasury, and 40 bps for 30-year US Treasury. This was offset by only a slight 5 bps tightening in credit spreads in the Investment Grade Corporate Index. The Bloomberg Barclays US Aggregate Index performance during the period was -0.77% versus the Fund’s return of 1.09%. The Fund’s outperformance was driven by a defensive duration positioning and reduced exposure to long credit.

Since June 29, 2018, the Fund’s inception, the ALPS l Smith Capital Investors Short Duration Fund Class I outperformed the Bloomberg Barclays 1-3-year US Government/Credit Index by 0.06%. During the period, short-term interest rates continued to move higher as the Federal Reserve hiked the Fed Funds rate 25 bps in September. The Bloomberg Barclays 1-3-Year US Government Credit Index performance during the period was 0.44% versus the Fund’s return of 0.50%. The Fund’s outperformance was driven by increased yield from the new interest rate environment and relative stability of short duration credit. The Fund’s performance was also bolstered by a shorter duration position, an allocation to very short duration high yield, and select structured product exposure.

Portfolio Positioning

Going forward we are defensive in regard to credit valuation and allocations relying on our bottom-up, fundamental credit analysis to drive security selection. Within the securitized allocations in the portfolio, we continue to focus on efficient positioning, including issues that have less extension risk and better convexity. We foresee continued volatility in interest rates and will actively manage the duration risk in the funds with a keen focus on key rate durations.

Macro Commentary:

The US macro landscape remains strong with 3Q 2018 GDP beating estimates at 3.5% vs. 3.3% consensus and on the heels of a 4.5% gain in 2Q 2018. Additionally, the consumer continued to show strength, marking a 3.6% gain in 3Q vs. a 3.8% gain in 2Q. The employment situation also remains foundationally strong with the unemployment rate at 3.7% (as of October 2018) and wages registering 3.1% year over year. Inflation is right at the Federal Reserve’s 2% target via a wide array of measures. Inflation expectations remain extremely stable though we are starting to see inflation, especially wages, edge higher. Housing is weakening due to

a combination of higher mortgage rates and a decrease in affordability. Regional manufacturing surveys are mixed and registering volatility from global trade negotiations and global headlines. Though global headlines continue to emerge, leading economic indicators, the health of the consumer, and consumer confidence all remain at elevated levels. The fundamentals of the economy are strong and the foundations of inflation are building. The removal of liquidity from the system as the Federal Reserve continues the process of unwinding its unconventional policy position could have dramatic effects on the long-term trajectory of growth and inflation. The policy unwind could also spill into other segments of the markets.

Thank you for the confidence you have placed with us as shareholders of the Funds. We look forward to continuing to build our relationship with you and serving as an investment manager to meet your income needs.

Sincerely,

R. Gibson Smith

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

Listed Private Equity Fund Fiscal Year 2018 Review

Global Markets Review 

This past year has been one of historic turmoil, dislocation, and transition for global markets as major economic regions faced significant economic and political events with potentially far- reaching impacts.

A few of the major themes in Asia included: a slowing Chinese economy, growing issues in the Chinese banking system, slow growth and demographic challenges in Japan, military buildup of North Korea, and the economic and political impacts of US tariffs.

Themes in the Eurozone included: BREXIT (British exit from the Eurozone) with uncertainties around timing and impact, growing nationalism with significant disagreements on immigration policy among member nations, slowing economic growth, issues and risks in the European banking system, and concerns regarding the fiscal health of several member states.

Themes in the US included: corporate tax cuts implemented at the end of 2017, an unpopular president fighting numerous political battles, a shrinking Federal Reserve balance sheet, interest rate hikes, a stronger US dollar, new trade pacts to replace NAFTA, and growing concerns of how to fund the country’s systemic fiscal deficits.

These themes, along with many others, have rekindled fear and uncertainty in market participants – and uncertainty can lead to increases in price volatility. After almost a decade of historically low market volatility, we saw significant increases during the past fiscal year, with several corrections of 5% or more in the past 12 months.

Global Private Equity 

In contrast to the growing uncertainty and volatility in global public markets, private markets continued their strong growth. Although not a record year, global private equity (“PE”) fundraising was robust, with over $400 billion of new capital and a new high-water mark of dry powder (committed capital that has yet to be invested) at $1.14 trillion.

Private investable assets are now around $5.7 trillion globally, or 6% of the $91.2 trillion in global investable assets (public and private) as of March 31, 2018 and the opportunity in private companies continues to be vastly larger than publicly listed companies.

For example, in North America there are 8,714 companies listed on public exchanges as of September 30, 2018. In contrast, there are 37,551 (a 4X multiple) private companies according to Bloomberg that meet potential size and other characteristics for investors.

Although both public and private valuations have increased over the past decade, valuations of private companies continue to be favorable relative to public companies. As of fiscal year end, US private companies are valued at 10.6 times EV/EBITDA (Enterprise value to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) compared to 13.9 times EV/EBITDA of the Russell 2000 index. Debt levels in PE deals were flat with four year average at around 50%, which are sharply lower than pre-financial crisis levels.

Despite ongoing political uncertainties and trade issues, global IPO activity levels were significantly above 10-year median in both volume and proceeds. Global M&A (mergers and acquisitions) activity was in line with five year averages in both volume and proceeds.

Portfolio Review

The core of our investment process has been consistent over the past decade. We manage the fund conservatively and seek to build a portfolio that provides attractive risk-adjusted returns for investors by investing in listed PE companies. We work very deliberately, getting to know the financials and operations of companies and their management teams, a process which often can take years before we take a position.

For the twelve months ending October 31, 2018 the ALPS|Red Rocks Listed Private Equity Fund A shares (LPEFX) returned -4.23% compared with 1.71% and -4.90% for the MSCI World Index (the fund’s primary benchmark) and the Global Listed Private Equity Index, respectively.

As of fiscal year end, the fund’s longer term returns continue to perform in line with its primary benchmark, with 10 year annualized returns of 10.24% compared to 10.65% for MSCI World Index.

The fund achieved this performance despite zero exposure to FAANG (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, and Google) and other tech stocks, which as a group have provided a bulk of the returns for broad global market indices over the past decade.

During the past year, we continued to update the portfolio, adding 10 companies and exiting 10 companies, ending the quarter with 45 holdings.

Net contributors to performance for the period included:

● IAC/Interactive Corp

● HBM Healthcare Investments

● KKR & Co Inc

Net detractors to performance included:

● Macquarie Infrastructure Corporation

● AURELIUS Equity Opportunities SE & Co

● Schouw & Co

Currency Impacts

The Red Rocks Listed Private Equity Fund (the “Fund”), being global in nature, holds assets denominated in currencies other than the US dollar. Changes in the relative value of the US dollar can both enhance and detract from investment performance of the fund.

For the past fiscal year, currency was a detractor, contributing -2.65% to the fund’s performance.

Outlook for Private Equity and Portfolio

Despite growing investor uncertainty, we believe that the environment is favorable for M&A and believe it can persist for the foreseeable future. Although interest rates have increased, which

 58 | October 31, 2018

ALPS | Red Rocks Listed Private Equity Fund

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

increased the cost of capital for PE firms, we believe that rates will stabilize in the next year or so and believe that the more capable PE firms have the ability to navigate these environments. With heightened global economic uncertainty, the US continues to attract capital as a relatively safe haven, and we expect to favor US assets for the foreseeable future.

With continued rapid growth of private capital available to invest globally, we believe that PE will continue to become an increasingly important component of investor portfolios. We believe that the investment model of buying companies, improving them, and selling them or taking them public, has inherent advantages to investing in traditional public companies including tight alignment of interests, patient investment outlook with long-term value creation focus, and active management and accountability in the operations of portfolio companies.

There are a number of potential risks that may affect the portfolio including the uncertainty and timing of BREXIT, the toxicity of political environment in the US and Europe, ongoing changes in tariff and trade relations, a continued strong dollar, growing public deficits, and the growing issuance of lower-rated debt by public companies, to name a few.

In closing, we continue to believe that the fund can provide attractive risk-adjusted returns for investors over longer investment horizons.

We appreciate your continued interest in the fund and listed PE.

Listed Private Equity Companies are subject to various risks depending on their underlying investments, which could include, but are not limited to, additional liquidity risk, industry risk, non-U.S. security risk, currency risk, credit risk, managed portfolio risk and derivatives risk (derivatives risk is the risk that the value of the Listed Private Equity Companies’ derivative investments will fall because of pricing difficulties or lack of correlation with the underlying investment).

There are inherent risks in investing in private equity companies, which encompass financial institutions or vehicles whose principal business is to invest in and lend capital to privately held companies. Generally, little public information exists for private and thinly traded companies, and there is a risk that investors may not be able to make a fully informed investment decision.

Listed Private Equity Companies may have relatively concentrated investment portfolios, consisting of a relatively small number of holdings. A consequence of this limited number of investments is that the aggregate returns realized may be adversely impacted by the poor performance of a small number of investments, or even a single investment, particularly if a company experiences the need to write down the value of an investment.

Certain of the Fund’s investments may be exposed to liquidity risk due to low trading volume, lack of a market maker or legal restrictions limiting the ability of the Fund to sell particular securities at an advantageous price and/or time. As a result, these securities may be more difficult to value. Foreign investing involves special risks, such as currency fluctuations and political uncertainty. The Fund invests in derivatives and is subject to the risk that the value of those derivative investments will fall because of pricing difficulties or lack of correlation with the underlying investment.

There is no guarantee that the Fund will continue to hold any one particular security or stay invested in any one particular company. The composition of the Fund's top holdings is subject to change. Performance figures are historical and reflect the change in share price, reinvested distributions, changes in net asset value, sales charges and capital gains distributions, if any.

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

Market Commentary

US equities posted positive results over the twelve month period ending 31 October 2018. The US Federal Reserve raised its benchmark interest rate by 25 basis points four times during the year, in line with expectations. Despite continued White House turmoil and heightened US tensions with Russia and North Korea, strong employment data and corporate earnings helped propel the market to a series of new highs during the first half of the period. In December, tax reform was a key area of focus, culminating with a $1.5 trillion tax reform bill signed into law by US President Donald Trump. Entering 2018, bullish sentiment was exceptionally strong as better-than-expected corporate profits helped drive US equities higher. Signs of inflation entered the market in February and led to heightened levels of volatility. By the summer of 2018, talk of tariffs and trade wars had progressed to implementation, raising concerns in an otherwise strong economy. Nonetheless, positive sentiment persisted for much of the summer, fueled by robust earnings growth, fiscal stimulus, the announcement of a preliminary trade deal between the US and Mexico, and expectations for stronger US economic growth relative to other regions of the world. This all changed in the final month of the period, as US equities saw their worst performance in recent years in October. Concerns surrounding slowing global growth, rich valuations, and volatile US and China trade relations weighed heavily on sentiment into the end of the period.

Within the Russell 1000 Value Index, eight of the eleven sectors posted positive absolute returns during the period, with the health care and communication services sectors gaining the most.

Fund Review

The Fund underperformed its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, for the twelve month period.

Stock selection detracted from relative returns, as weak selection in the health care, information technology, and consumer staples sectors more than offset positive stock selection in the consumer discretionary, communication services, and industrials sectors.

Top detractors from relative performance during the period included British American Tobacco (consumer staples) and American International Group (financials). Our decision not to hold Cisco Systems, a US-based networking systems and communication products provider, also detracted during the period, as the company reported favorable earnings and announced dividend increases and a $25 billion share repurchase program. Our overweight to British American Tobacco, the world’s second largest cigarette maker, hurt relative performance. The company underperformed as a challenging regulatory environment weighed on tobacco stocks during the period. Our overweight to American International Group, a US-based insurance company, also detracted from performance. The share price fell after the company reported 3Q18 losses from multiple disaster events in Japan, including Typhoons Jebi and Trami, as well as Hurricane Florence and revisions to loss estimates from the California mudslides.

Top contributors to relative performance included Verizon Communications (communication services), XL Group (financials), and TJX Companies (consumer discretionary). Our overweight to Verizon Communications, a US-based wireless communication services provider, was the top relative contributor during the period. The wireless business benefited from an increase in postpaid phone

subscribers and customer step-ups to higher priced plans, and the company reported solid 3Q18 results. Our overweight to XL Group, a property and casualty insurance company, benefitted performance as the stock price surged after AXA announced in early March that it would acquire XL Group for a substantial premium. We eliminated our position in XL Group on strength. TJX Companies, the largest global off-price apparel and home goods retailer, advanced in 3Q18 on strong adjusted earnings per share. Results were strong across the board as sales, gross profit, and operating profit all increased year over year.

Strategy and Outlook

Looking ahead, our Global Industry Analysts remain focused on fundamental, bottom-up stock selection with an eye on how the macro-economic outlook will affect the companies in which they invest. We continue to identify themes and opportunities that will shape future investment decisions.

Within energy, we established a position in Exxon Mobil. Given recent underperformance, we believe it is an opportune time to invest in Exxon as the company plans to significantly expand its capex in the coming years, suggesting the long-term growth potential for the company outweighs that of its peers. We also like Exxon's attractive business mix and integration of downstream and upstream activities. A history of thoughtful capital deployment with strong return on common equity and fewer impairments is also supportive of the stock. We chose to trim our position in Chevron, which had recently executed well, and moved those funds to expand the position in Exxon.

Within health care, we continue to seek companies dedicated to ground-breaking innovation or the provision of value, i.e., high- quality health care at a lower cost. It’s our view that while some companies will clearly thrive in this environment, others will struggle to meet ever-increasing standards of performance. We continue to be excited about the potential for further advancements in innovation, and we do expect the market to ultimately pay for the life-saving new drugs that are being developed. We are also focused on companies that should benefit from demographic trends. The aging population in the developed world and increasing global wealth should lead to more demand for health care treatment (drugs, devices, services, etc.). Our top active positions in the health care sector include UnitedHealth Group and Medtronic.

Clough China Fund

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

The Clough China Fund (the “Fund”) was down 21.17% for the year ended October 31, 2018. This compares to a decline of 16.73% for the broad based MSCI China Index. From a sector perspective, our investments in Healthcare contributed to performance, whilst Technology and Consumer Discretionary detracted. From an individual stock perspective, over the fiscal year Sunny Optical, Jiangsu Yanghe Brewery, JD.Com, Alibaba and Tencent detracted the most from performance while Ping An, Naspers, Sands China, China Resources Land, and Sinopharm contributed the most to performance.

The China market started the fiscal year ending October 31, 2018 very strong. For the first three months of the fiscal year, the MSCI China Index rose over 16.4%. The drawdown, though, was even more powerful with the market declining by over 33% from its peak to its October 2018 trough. This sell-off was driven by U.S. and China trade tensions in addition to a slowing of the Chinese economy on the back of tighter liquidity conditions. Very few stocks provided shelter in this type of environment.

Our top contributors for the year:

1. Ping An contributed the most to performance for the year. This is a diversified financial conglomerate that generates over 60% of its operating profit from its insurance business. To understand the scope of this company’s businesses across insurance, banking and credit cards, the company has amassed over 179 MM retail customers. We are big believers in Ping An for a number of reasons. From a top-down perspective, insurance penetration is still very low as a percentage of gross domestic product (“GDP”). According to Lexology, premiums account for 2.4%, whereas in more developed markets, it is closer to 7.5%, and in neighboring Hong Kong it is 13.4%. In addition, regulators are moving Chinese insurers to underwrite more protection products as opposed to short-term savings products. This structural shift will provide a much more stable source of income for Ping An. Finally, we believe that Ping An has proven that it is the best run insurance company in China, and arguably the region, as reflected by its superior return profile as measured by return on equity (“ROE”).

2. We held Naspers in the Fund for a short period of time to gain additional exposure to Tencent. Naspers is a South African listed media conglomerate with a large holding in Tencent. We saw an opportunity to buy this stock as the implied value of Tencent was at a very large discount to fair value, in our view. We no longer hold the position.

3. Sands China is one of the largest gaming operators in Macau. We liked the company given that it catered primarily to the mass and premium mass gamblers, which we believed will be far more stable a cohort of customers than the VIP segment. We exited the position as we were concerned about the potential impact of slowing credit growth in China on gambling activity in Macau.

4. China Resources Land is one of China’s premier developers. In our view, the company’s strategy of developing malls surrounded by housing developments in some of the best locations creates tremendous value for shareholders. In one project, the shareholders benefit from recurring revenue generated by the retail podium, and development profits from housing. The company has a track record of executing and is well positioned to potentially be one of the beneficiaries of a consolidating property development sector, given its strong financial position.

5. Sinopharm has been a core holding of the Fund as we believe that healthcare spending will continue to grow, driven by a virtuous circle of an aging and increasingly wealthy population. As China’s largest drug distributor, the company is likely to benefit from both these trends. China is in the process of moving the profit pools of drug distribution from hospitals and into traditional offsite drug stores. The company is very well positioned to capture this trend as it operates one of China’s largest drugstore chains. The company’s strategy was validated at the end of 2017 with Walgreens Boots Alliance taking a 40% stake in the company’s drugstore chain subsidiary.

Top detractors for the year:

1. Tencent negatively impacted our performance the most this past fiscal year. Tencent is China’s largest gaming and social networking platform. This has historically been our largest position in the Fund, as the company continued to deliver consistent growth on the back of its dominant position as a gaming and social media giant. This year, however, the company faced a number of regulatory challenges which will likely diminish the company’s growth trajectory. It appears that the Chinese government is tightening the restrictions on gaming play for children. Tencent announced that it would only allow children under 12 to play for one hour per day, and children between 13 and 18, two hours per day. Additionally, China has stated that it would limit the number of new games that can be launched and monetized. Tencent launched PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (“PUBG”) in China in February 2018, and Chinese gamers flocked to the game, and played on average 16 hours per week versus 7 hours for U.S. gamers. Unfortunately, Tencent was not able to obtain approval to monetize any aspect of this game, and may potentially not obtain approval at all, which highlighted to the market the newfound risks to the sector. We still believe in the investment over the medium-to-longer-term but took our exposure down to reflect the short-term risks to the business.

Clough China Fund

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

2. Alibaba has historically been one of the Fund’s larger overall positions given our belief in the Chinese consumer and the company’s dominant position in e-commerce. China now is the largest e-commerce market in the world as it accounts for 42% of global retail e-commerce transactions compared to the U.S.’s 24% share, according to a McKinsey Global Institute study. Structurally, we are bullish on the name, but we became concerned after the company announced substantial sales growth, but muted bottom-line performance on the back of increased investment in brick-and-mortar retail. In addition, Jack Ma, the visionary founder, stepped down in the beginning of September. These concerns weighed on the stock.

3. Sunny Optical is one of China’s largest camera module manufacturers that supplies the likes of Samsung and China’s largest handset makers. With the proliferation of dual and triple camera phones we believed that the company’s earnings and margins would be assured. However, the company announced weaker than expected top-line and bottom-line performance in the first half, driven by lower than expected gross margins on their camera modules due to lower average selling prices as well as a weak renminbi (“RMB”). We have since exited the position given the headwinds the company faces, including a more moderate growth profile for handset camera modules and new entrants in Sunny’s segment.

4. We held a position in JD.com for similar reasons to our holding in Alibaba given our belief in the Chinese consumer and the country’s e-commerce sector. We also appreciated the strength of JD.com’s self-owned and well-developed distribution network, which we believe gave it a competitive edge versus its competitors. Trading at a huge discount to its peers as well as big-box retailers in the U.S., we thought it was attractively valued. Unfortunately, the company announced disappointing results on the back of lower-than-expected margins with competitive intensity increasing. Additionally, the founder and CEO of the company was arrested for assault in the U.S., but returned to China uncharged. This combination of factors resulted in us exiting the position.

5. Jiangsu Yanghe Brewery was a new position in the Fund but was hit very hard in October on the back of a surprisingly weak set of results from one of Yanghe’s competitors, Kweichow Moutai. Yanghe had reported its numbers before Moutai with both the top- and bottom- line growing over 20%. That being said, Moutai is the industry and market leader and brought the whole sector down. We think that Moutai’s performance was company specific, and still believe that Yanghe is a compelling investment. First of all, this is one of the few Chinese white liquor companies that is run like a private company. Management owns 24% of the company and the government 23%. Thus, management and minority

shareholders’ interests are aligned. Secondly, Yanghe’s growth strategy appears sound, with the company expanding judiciously outside of its core territory of Jiangsu Province. Finally, the company has a wide range of product offerings, and thus does not depend solely on premium priced products which we believe is a more defensive business model during economic uncertainty.

China's difficulties over the past fiscal year of the Fund overshadowed the fact that over the last two years, the market has performed quite well- up 16.6%. We are hopeful that the factors that contributed to the Fund’s decline in performance are likely to wane over the coming months as the US/China trade relationship becomes clearer. Should it take a more antagonistic track, we still find comfort that China's 1.4bn in population is a large enough market to sustain itself, and geopolitical realignment will allow China to continue to thrive in spite of a more difficult relationship with the United States.

RiverFront Global Allocation Series

Management Commentary October 31, 2018 (Unaudited)

Annual Overview

As annual reports arrive, investors with international equity allocations may be disappointed to find that their accounts only returned a fraction of the S&P 500’s return. This is because over the past twelve months the S&P 500 significantly outperformed most other asset classes, continuing a theme that has persisted since the Financial Crisis. We anticipate that the disappointing performance from international equities will once again raise questions about whether diversification outside the US still makes sense and recognize that the allure to un-diversify can be overwhelming when it is not working, and an investor’s home base is performing well.

Since 1973 the overall yearly “win” percentage of international stocks versus those in the US is nearly identical in US dollar terms. We recognize that it often does not feel that way since there were two long-term mega-streaks for each side over that time-period, including the now decade-long hot streak the US is currently riding. Accordingly, even though international equity markets were notable Fiscal Year laggards versus US peers, we remain constructive.

Market Outlook

We see several primary reasons for International outperformance potential. First, valuations remain attractive. Riverfront’s asset allocation framework, based on the potential of long-term mean reversion, suggests to us that international equities are priced to return significantly more over the next 5-10 years than US equities.

Second, monetary policy remains accommodative. Inflation trends in Europe, Japan and most major emerging markets are tepid compared to history and economic trends globally are still positive. We believe this is a 'Goldilocks' scenario because spare capacity in these economies give international central banks cover to maintain their accommodative policies. Historically, this has provided a positive underpinning for global stock markets.

Third, the US Dollar may halt its secular rise. In addition to the ‘Goldilocks’ economic environment, we believe that the US dollar is in the later-stages of its bull market that began in mid-2011. If the USD can stop its ascension, emerging markets could stabilize and developed international stocks could deliver stronger USD- denominated returns.

Fourth, economic and earnings growth remain positive. We believe we are in the early-to-mid stages of a positive corporate earnings cycle in Europe, Japan, and many major emerging markets as evidenced by their strong performance in 2017. We expect this positive growth is expected to continue in 2019 and beyond. Over the long-run, it is unusual for stocks to perform poorly in times when earnings growth is positive.

Lastly, trade tensions seem now largely priced into the markets. On a trailing P/E basis, the valuation gap between US and non-US stocks remains close to the widest levels in 45 years. We see negative market sentiment related to protectionist trade policy as the primary contributor to this valuation gap this year. While trade uncertainty relating to China is likely to stay with us for a while, we believe it is possible that we get positive resolution to trade issues between the US, NAFTA and the EU in 2018. Eventually, we believe that in the longer-term, the structural imbalances in China’s

economy and the unequal amount of trade leverage that the US exercises over China will lead to a resolution, no matter how ugly the negotiations appear in the meantime.

Performance Discussions

Asset Allocation Income & Growth

Broadly, the portfolio under-performed its benchmark in the year, due to allocation decisions. A few of the top themes that most contributed to and detracted from performance in the year are listed below:

Contributors:

● Allocation and Selection – Fixed Income: Our underweight to fixed-income, particularly in core traditional domestic fixed-income was additive in the year, given equity out-performance.

● Allocation to Cash: Cash instruments, although largely frictional, generated modest relative gains.

Detractors:

● Underweighted Allocation to US Equities: The decision to underweight US equities relative to the benchmark in favor of overweighting Developed International equities was a detractor in the year.

● Selection in Domestic Equities: Selection in the cyclicals and financial sectors truncated gains.

● Overweight to International Equities: Exposure to Developed and Emerging Markets negatively impacted returns.

Asset Allocation Moderate

Broadly, the portfolio under-performed its benchmark over the year, due to both selection and allocation decisions. A few of the top themes that most contributed to and detracted from performance in the year are listed below:

Contributors:

● Allocation and Selection in Fixed Income: Our underweight to and selection within fixed-income were additive in the year.

● Allocation to Cash: Cash instruments, although largely frictional, generated modest relative gains.

Detractors:

● Allocation and Selection Domestic Equities: The decision to underweight US equities relative to the benchmark in favor of overweighting lagging Developed and Emerging International equities was a detractor in the quarter. Selection in the financial and technology sectors truncated gains.

● Overweight to International Equities: Exposure to Developed and Emerging Markets negatively impacted returns.

Contributors:

● Allocation and Selection – Fixed Income: Our underweight to and selection within fixed-income were additive to relative returns.

Detractors:

● Allocation and Selection – International: Over-weights in Developed International and Emerging Markets, as well as selections in respective finance industrials and technology sectors negatively impacted returns.

● Allocation and Selection in US Equities: An underweight to U.S. Equities and selection decisions in the financial, consumer cyclicals and technology sectors dampened relative gains.

1. ORGANIZATION

Financial Investors Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust, is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). The Trust consists of multiple separate portfolios or series. This annual report includes the financial statements and financial highlights of the following 12 funds: ALPS | CoreCommodity Management CompleteCommodities^® Strategy Fund, ALPS | Kotak India Growth Fund, ALPS | Red Rocks Listed Private Equity Fund, ALPS | WMC Research Value Fund, Clough China Fund, RiverFront Asset Allocation Aggressive (Formerly RiverFront Global Growth Fund), RiverFront Asset Allocation Growth (Formerly RiverFront Global Allocation Fund), RiverFront Asset Allocation Growth & Income (Formerly RiverFront Dynamic Equity Income Fund), RiverFront Asset Allocation Moderate (Formerly RiverFront Moderate Growth & Income Fund), RiverFront Asset Allocation Income & Growth (Formerly RiverFront Conservative Income Builder Fund), ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund and ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”).

The ALPS | CoreCommodity Management CompleteCommodities^® Strategy Fund seeks to maximize real returns (returns after inflation), consistent with prudent investment management. ALPS | Kotak India Growth Fund’s investment goal is long-term capital appreciation. ALPS | Red Rocks Listed Private Equity Fund seeks to maximize total return, which consists of appreciation on its investments and a variable income stream. ALPS | WMC Research Value Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation: dividend income may be a factor in portfolio selection but is secondary to the Fund’s principal objective. The Clough China Fund seeks to provide investors with long-term capital appreciation. Effective February 28, 2018, the RiverFront Asset Allocation Aggressive seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation, the RiverFront Asset Allocation Growth seeks to provide high total investment return, the RiverFront Asset Allocation Growth & Income seeks to achieve long-term growth and income, the RiverFront Asset Allocation Moderate has two primary investment objectives- it seeks (1) to provide a level of current income that exceeds the average yield on U.S. stocks, and (2) growth of capital, and the RiverFront Asset Allocation Income & Growth seeks to provide current income and potential for that income to grow over time. Prior to February 28, 2018, the RiverFront Asset Allocation Aggressive sought to achieve long-term capital appreciation through a fully managed investment policy utilizing United States and foreign equity securities, debt and money market securities, the combination of which will be varied from time to time both with respect to types of securities and markets in response to changing market and economic trends.The RiverFront Asset Allocation Growth sought to provide high total investment return through a fully managed investment policy utilizing United States and foreign equity securities, debt and money market securities, the combination of which will be varied from time to time both with respect to types of securities and markets in response to changing market and economic trends. Total investment return means the combination of capital appreciation and investment income. The RiverFront Asset Allocation Growth & Income sought to achieve long-term growth and income through a combination of capital appreciation and rising dividend payments that exceed the average yield on global stocks generally. The RiverFront Asset Allocation Moderate had two primary investment objectives. It sought (1) to provide a level of current income that exceeds the average yield on U.S. stocks in general while providing a growing stream of income over the years and (2) growth of capital. The RiverFront Asset Allocation Income & Growth sought to provide current income and potential for that income to grow over time. The ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund capital seeks to obtain maximum total return, consistent with preservation of capital. The ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund seeks as high a level of current income as is consistent with preservation of capital.

The classes of each Fund differ principally in the applicable distribution and shareholder service fees. Shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund and earn income and realized gains/losses from the Fund pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends to shareholders are determined separately for each class based on income and expenses allocable to each class. Realized gain distributions to shareholders are allocated to each class pro rata based on the shares outstanding of each class on the date of distribution. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder service fees, if applicable.

Basis of Consolidation for the ALPS | Kotak India Growth Fund  

ALPS | Kotak India Growth Fund, (the “Kotak Fund”) invests in the equity securities of Indian companies through its wholly owned, collective investment vehicle, the India Premier Equity Portfolio (the “Portfolio”). The Portfolio is registered with and regulated by the Mauritius Financial Services Commission. The Portfolio was formed for the purpose of facilitating the Kotak Fund’s purchase of securities of a wide selection of Indian companies, consistent with the Kotak Fund’s investment strategies. The Portfolio is a private company limited by shares incorporated under the Mauritius Companies Act 2001. As a wholly owned subsidiary of the Kotak Fund, financial statements of the Portfolio are included in the consolidated financial statements and financial highlights of the Kotak Fund. All investments held by the Portfolio are disclosed in the accounts of the Kotak Fund. As of October 31, 2018, net assets of the Kotak Fund were $21,599,988 of which $13,964,218 or 64.65%, represented the Kotak Fund’s ownership of all issued shares and voting rights of the Subsidiary.

The Portfolio established residency in Mauritius allowing the Kotak Fund to receive the beneficial tax treatment under the Treaty between India and Mauritius. However, due to recently enacted legislation the benefits of the Treaty have been reduced and some gains derived by the Portfolio due to the sale of securities will be subject to taxation in India. On April 1, 2017, the General Anti-Avoidance Rules (“GAAR”) which contain treaty override provisions were enacted. Capital gains on sale of shares acquired on or after April 1, 2017, are taxable in India as per the amended India - Mauritius treaty. The benefit of a lower rate of taxation (50% of the applicable tax rate in India) is provided for the gains on shares arising during the period from April 1, 2017 to March 31, 2019 subject to compliance with the Limitation of Benefit clause.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by each Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. Each Fund is considered an investment company for financial reporting purposes, and follows accounting policies in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), including policies specific to investment companies. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds and subsidiaries, as applicable, in preparation of their financial statements. The Funds are considered investment companies under U.S. GAAP and follows the accounting and reporting guidance applicable to investment companies in the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946.

Investment Valuation: The Funds generally value their securities based on market prices determined at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, on each day the NYSE is open for trading. For equity securities and mutual funds that are traded on an exchange, the market price is usually the closing sale or official closing price on that exchange.

The market price for debt obligations is generally the price supplied by an independent third-party pricing service approved by the Board, which may use a matrix, formula or other objective method that takes into consideration quotations from dealers, market transactions in comparable investments, market indices and yield curves. If vendors are unable to supply a price, or if the price supplied is deemed to be unreliable, the market price may be determined using quotations received from one or more brokers-dealers that make a market in the security. Investments in nonexchange traded funds are fair valued at their respective net asset values.

Futures contracts that are listed or traded on a national securities exchange, commodities exchange, contract market or comparable over the counter market, and that are freely transferable, are valued at their closing settlement price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded or based upon the current settlement price for a like instrument acquired on the day on which the instrument is being valued. A settlement price may not be used if the market makes a limit move with respect to a particular commodity. Over-the-counter swap contracts are valued based on quotes received from independent pricing services or one or more dealers that make markets in such investments.

Option contracts are valued using the National Best Bid and Offer price (“NBBO”). In the event there is no NBBO price available, option contracts are valued at the mean between the last bid and ask.

Equity securities that are primarily traded on foreign securities exchanges are valued at the closing values of such securities on their respective foreign exchanges, except when an event occurs subsequent to the close of the foreign exchange and the close of the NYSE that was likely to have changed such value. In such an event, the fair value of those securities are determined in good faith through consideration of other factors in accordance with procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. The Funds will use a fair valuation model provided by an independent pricing service, which is intended to reflect fair value when a security’s value or a meaningful portion of the Fund’s portfolio is believed to have been materially affected by an valuation event that has occurred between the close of the exchange or market on which the security is traded and the close of the regular trading day on the NYSE.

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2018

Forward currency exchange contracts have a value determined by the current foreign currency exchange forward rates. The foreign currency exchange forward rates are calculated using an automated system that estimates rates on the basis of the current day foreign currency exchange rates and forward foreign currency exchange rates supplied by a pricing service. Foreign exchange rates and forward foreign currency exchange rates may generally be obtained at the close of the NYSE, normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

When such prices or quotations are not available, or when the Fair Value Committee appointed by the Board believes that they are unreliable, securities may be priced using fair value procedures approved by the Board. The fair valuation policies and procedures (“FV Procedures”) have been adopted by the Board for the fair valuation of portfolio assets held by the Fund(s) in the event that (1) market quotations for the current price of a portfolio security or asset are not readily available, or (2) available market quotations that would otherwise be used to value a portfolio security or asset in accordance with the Fund’s Pricing Procedures appear to be unreliable. The Pricing Procedures reflect certain pricing methodologies (or “logics”) that are not “readily available market quotations” and thus are viewed and treated as fair valuations. The Fair Value Committee routinely meets to discuss fair valuations of portfolio securities and other instruments held by the Fund(s).

Fair Value Measurements: The Funds disclose the classification of their fair value measurements following a three-tier hierarchy based on the inputs used to measure fair value. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability that are developed based on the best information available.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of each Fund’s investments as of the end of the reporting period. When inputs used fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the level in the hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. The designated input levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with these investments. These inputs are categorized in the following hierarchy under applicable financial accounting standards:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments, unrestricted assets or liabilities that a Fund has the ability to access at the measurement date;

Level 2 – Quoted prices which are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable (either directly or indirectly) for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

Level 3 – Significant unobservable prices or inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability at the measurement date.

The following is a summary of each Fund’s investments/financial instruments in the fair value hierarchy as of October 31, 2018:

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2018

^(a) For detailed descriptions of country, sector and/or industry, see the accompanying Statement of Investments or Consolidated Statement of Investments.

Fund and Class Expenses: Some expenses of the Trust can be directly attributed to a Fund or a specific share class of a Fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among all Funds in the Trust based on average net assets of each share class within a Fund.

Federal Income Taxes: The Funds comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and intend to distribute substantially all of their net taxable income and net capital gains, if any, each year. The Funds are not subject to income taxes to the extent such distributions are made.

The Funds file U.S. federal, state, and local tax returns as required. The Funds’ tax returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax authorities until expiration of the applicable statute of limitations which is generally three years after the filing of the tax return, but may extend to four years in certain jurisdictions. Tax returns for open years have incorporated no uncertain tax positions that require a provision for income taxes.

Distributions to Shareholders: Each Fund, except the RiverFront Asset Allocation Income & Growth, RiverFront Asset Allocation Growth & Income,RiverFront Asset Allocation Moderate, ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund and ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund, normally pays dividends and distributes capital gains, if any, on an annual basis. RiverFront Asset Allocation Income & Growth, RiverFront Asset Allocation Growth & Income and RiverFront Asset Allocation Moderate normally pay dividends, if any, on a quarterly basis and distribute capital gains annually. ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund and ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund declare and distribute dividends, if any, on a monthly basis and capital gains, if any, on at least an annual basis. Income dividend distributions are derived from interest and other income a Fund receives from its investments, including distributions of short-term capital gains. Capital gain distributions are derived from gains realized when a Fund sells a security it has owned for more than a year or from long-term capital gain distributions from underlying investments. Each Fund may make additional distributions and dividends at other times if its portfolio manager or managers believe doing so may be necessary for the Fund to avoid or reduce taxes.

Commodity-Linked Notes: The ALPS | CoreCommodity Management CompleteCommodities® Strategy Fund may invest in commodity-linked notes which are derivative instruments that have characteristics of a debt security and of a commodity-linked derivative. A commodity-linked note typically provides for interest payments and a principal payment at maturity linked to the price movement of the underlying commodity, commodity index or commodity futures or option contract. Commodity-linked notes may be principal protected, partially protected, or offer no principal protection. The value of these notes will rise and fall in response to changes in the underlying commodity or related index or investment. These notes are often leveraged, increasing the volatility of each note’s value relative to the change in the underlying linked index. Commodity index-linked investments may be more volatile and less liquid than the underlying index and their value may be affected by the performance of the commodities as well as other factors, including liquidity, quality, maturity and other economic variables. Commodity-linked notes are typically issued by a bank or other financial institution and are sometimes referred to as structured notes because the terms of the notes may be structured by the issuer and the purchaser of the notes to accommodate the specific investment requirements of the purchaser.

Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs): Each Fund may invest in shares of ETFs and other similar instruments if the investment manager chooses to adjust a Fund’s exposure to the general market or industry sectors and to manage a Fund’s risk exposure. ETFs differ from traditional index funds in that their shares are listed on a securities exchange and can be traded intraday. ETF shares are shares of exchange traded investment companies that are registered under the 1940 Act and hold a portfolio of common stocks designed to track the performance of a particular index. Limitations of the 1940 Act may prohibit a Fund from acquiring more than 3% of the outstanding shares of certain ETFs. Instruments that are similar to ETFs represent beneficial ownership interests in specific “baskets” of stocks of companies within a particular industry sector or group. These securities may also be exchange traded, but unlike ETFs, the issuers of these securities are not registered as investment companies.

The portfolio manager may decide to purchase or sell short ETF shares or options on ETF shares for the same reasons it would purchase or sell (and as an alternative to purchasing or selling) futures contracts - to obtain exposure to the stock market or a particular segment of the stock market, or to hedge a Fund’s portfolio against such exposures. Depending on the market, the holding period and other factors, the use of ETF shares and options thereon can be less costly than the use of index options or stock index futures. In addition, ETF shares and options thereon can typically be purchased in smaller amounts than are available for futures contracts and can offer exposure to market sectors and styles for which there is no suitable or liquid futures contract.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income: Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the investments are purchased or sold (trade date basis). Net realized gains and losses from investment transactions are reported on an identified cost basis. Interest income, which includes accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is accrued and recorded as earned. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date or for certain foreign securities, as soon as information is available to each Fund.

 153 | October 31, 2018

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2018

Foreign Securities: Each Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible reevaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate foreign currency, less complete financial information about companies and possible future adverse political and economic developments.

Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment valuations and other assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are converted each business day into U.S. dollars based upon current exchange rates. The portion of realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed and is included in realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments, when applicable.

Foreign Currency Spot Contracts: The Funds may enter into foreign currency spot contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign securities or to convert foreign currency receipts into U.S. dollars. A foreign currency spot contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell currencies at the current market rate, for settlement generally within two business days. The U.S. dollar value of the contracts is determined using current currency exchange rates supplied by a pricing service. The contract is marked-to-market daily for settlements beyond one day and any change in market value is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value on the open and close date. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency, or if the counterparties do not perform under the contract’s terms. The maximum potential loss from such contracts is the aggregate face value in U.S. dollars at the time the contract was opened.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”): The Funds may invest a portion of their assets in REITs and are subject to certain risks associated with direct investment in REITs. REITs may be affected by changes in the value of their underlying properties and by defaults by borrowers or tenants. REITs depend generally on their ability to generate cash flow to make distributions to shareowners, and certain REITs have self-liquidation provisions by which mortgages held may be paid in full and distributions of capital returns may be made at any time. In addition, the performance of a REIT may be affected by its failure to qualify for tax-free pass-through of income under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or its failure to maintain exemption from registration under the 1940 Act. Distributions that the Fund receives from REITs can be classified as ordinary income, capital gain income or return of capital by the REITs that make these distributions to the Fund. However, it is not possible for the Fund to characterize distributions received from REITs during interim periods because the REIT issuers do not report their tax characterizations until subsequent to year end. During interim periods, the REIT distributions are accounted for as ordinary income until the re characterizations are made subsequent to year end.

Treasury Inflation Protected-Securities (“TIPS”): The Funds may invest in TIPS, including structured bonds in which the principal amount is adjusted daily to keep pace with inflation, as measured by the U.S. Consumer Pricing Index for Urban Consumers. The adjustments to principal due to inflation/deflation are reflected as increases/decreases to interest income with a corresponding adjustment to cost. Such adjustments may have a significant impact on a Fund’s distributions and may result in a return of capital to shareholders. The repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity is guaranteed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government.

Loan Participations and Assignments: Certain Funds may invest in loan participations and assignments. The Fund considers loan participations and assignments to be investments in debt securities. Loan participations typically will result in the Fund having a contractual relationship only with the lender, not with the borrower. The Fund will have the right to receive payments of principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the lender selling the participation and only upon receipt by the lender of the payments from the borrower. Under a loan participation, the Fund generally will have no right to enforce compliance by the borrower with the terms of the loan agreement relating to the loan, nor any rights of set-off against the borrower, and the Fund may not benefit directly from any collateral supporting the loan in which it has purchased the participation. As a result, the Fund will assume the credit risk of both the borrower and the lender that is selling the participation. In the event of the insolvency of the lender selling a participation, the Fund may be treated as a general creditor of the lender and may not benefit from any set-off between the lender and the borrower. When the Fund purchases assignments of loans from lenders, the Fund will acquire direct rights against the borrower on the loan, except that under certain circumstances such rights may be more limited than those held by the assigning lender.

Master Limited Partnerships: Certain Funds may invest in MLPs, which are publicly traded partnerships engaged in the transportation, storage and processing of minerals and natural resources. By confining their operations to these specific activities, their interests, or units, are able to trade on public securities exchanges exactly like the shares of a corporation, without entity level taxation. To qualify as a MLP and to not be taxed as a corporation, a partnership must receive at least 90% of its income from qualifying sources as set forth in Section 7704(d) of the Code. These qualifying sources include natural resource based activities such as the processing, transportation and storage of mineral or natural resources. MLPs generally have two classes of owners, the general partner and limited partners. The general partner of an MLP is typically owned by a major

 154 | October 31, 2018

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2018

energy company, an investment fund, the direct management of the MLP, or is an entity owned by one or more of such parties. The general partner may be structured as a private or publicly traded corporation or other entity. The general partner typically controls the operations and management of the MLP through an up to 2% equity interest in the MLP plus, in many cases, ownership of common units and subordinated units. Limited partners typically own the remainder of the partnership, through ownership of common units, and have a limited role in the partnership’s operations and management. MLPs are typically structured such that common units and general partner interests have first priority to receive quarterly cash distributions up to an established minimum amount (“minimum quarterly distributions” or “MQD”). Common and general partner interests also accrue arrearages in distributions to the extent the MQD is not paid. Once common and general partner interests have been paid, subordinated units receive distributions of up to the MQD; however, subordinated units do not accrue arrearages. Distributable cash in excess of the MQD is paid to both common and subordinated units and is distributed to both common and subordinated units generally on a pro rata basis. The general partner is also eligible to receive incentive distributions if the general partner operates the business in a manner which results in distributions paid per common unit surpassing specified target levels. As the general partner increases cash distributions to the limited partners, the general partner receives an increasingly higher percentage of the incremental cash distributions.

3. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

As a part of their investment strategy, the Funds are permitted to enter in various types of derivatives contracts. In doing so, the Funds employ strategies in differing combinations to permit them to increase, decrease, or change the level or types of exposure to market factors. Central to those strategies are features inherent in derivatives that make them more attractive for this purpose than equity or debt securities; they require little or no initial cash investment, they focus exposure on only certain selected risk factors, and they may not require the ultimate receipt or delivery of the underlying security (or securities) to the contract. This may allow the Funds to pursue their objectives more quickly and efficiently than if they were to make direct purchases or sales of securities capable of affecting a similar response to market factors.

Cash collateral is being pledged to cover derivative obligations of the Funds and cash collateral received from the counterparty, if any, is reported separately on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as cash pledged as collateral and cash received as collateral, respectively. Non-cash collateral pledged by the Funds, if any, is noted in the Statements of Investments.

Risk of Investing in Derivatives: The Funds’ use of derivatives can result in losses due to unanticipated changes in the market risk factors and the overall market. In instances where the Funds are using derivatives to decrease, or hedge, exposures to market risk factors for securities held by the Funds, there are also risks that those derivatives may not perform as expected resulting in losses for the combined or hedged positions.

Derivatives may have little or no initial cash investment relative to their market value exposure and therefore can produce significant gains or losses in excess of their cost. This use of embedded leverage allows the Fund to increase its market value exposure relative to its net assets and can substantially increase the volatility of the Funds’ performance.

Additional associated risks from investing in derivatives also exist and potentially could have significant effects on the valuation of the derivative and the Funds. Typically, the associated risks are not the risks that the Funds are attempting to increase or decrease exposure to, per their investment objectives, but are the additional risks from investing in derivatives.

Examples of these associated risks are liquidity risk, which is the risk that the Funds will not be able to sell or close out the derivative in a timely manner, and counterparty credit risk, which is the risk that the counterparty will not fulfill its obligation to the Funds. In addition, use of derivatives may increase or decrease exposure to the following risk factors:

Equity Risk: Equity risk relates to the change in value of equity securities as they relate to increases or decreases in the general market. Associated risks can be different for each type of derivative and are discussed by each derivative type in the notes that follow.

Commodity Risk: Exposure to the commodities markets may subject the Funds to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. Prices of various commodities may also be affected by factors, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and other regulatory developments, which are unpredictable. The prices of commodities can also fluctuate widely due to supply and demand disruptions in major producing or consuming regions.

Foreign Currency Risk: Currency trading involves significant risks, including market risk, interest rate risk, country risk, counterparty credit risk and short sale risk. Market risk results from the price movement of foreign currency values in response to shifting market supply and demand. Interest rate risk arises whenever a country changes its stated interest rate target associated with its currency. Country risk arises because virtually every country has interfered with international transactions in its currency.

 155 | October 31, 2018

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2018

Interest Rate Risk: Interest rate risk is the risk that fixed income securities will decline in value because of changes in interest rates. As nominal interest rates rise, the value of fixed income securities held by the Funds are likely to decrease. Securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to changes in interest rates, and are usually more volatile than securities.

Swap Contracts: Each Fund may enter into swap transactions for hedging purposes or to seek to increase total return. At the present time, the CoreCommodity Fund and Clough China Fund primarily enter into swap transactions for the purpose of increasing total return. Swap agreements may be executed in a multilateral or other trade facility program, such as a registered exchange (“centrally cleared swaps”) or may be privately negotiated in the over-the counter market. The duration of a swap agreement typically ranges from a few weeks to more than one year. In a centrally cleared swap, immediately following execution of the swap agreement, the swap agreement is novated to a central counterparty (the “CCP”) and the Fund’s counterparty on the swap agreement becomes the CCP. Risks may arise as a result of the failure of the counterparty to the swap contract to comply with the terms of the swap contract. The loss incurred by the failure of a counterparty is generally limited to the net payment to be received by the Funds and/or the termination value at the end of the contract. Therefore, the Funds consider the creditworthiness of each counterparty to a contract in evaluating potential credit risk. Although centrally cleared swaps typically present less counterparty risk than non-centrally cleared swaps, a Fund that has entered into centrally cleared swaps is subject to the risk of the failure of the CCP.

Additionally, risks may arise from unanticipated movements in interest rates or in the value of the underlying reference asset or index. Entering into these agreements involves, to varying degrees, market risk, liquidity risk and elements of credit, legal and documentation risk that are not directly reflected in the amounts recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

The Funds may pay or receive cash as collateral on these contracts which may be recorded as an asset and/or liability. The Funds must set aside liquid assets, or engage in other appropriate measures, to cover its obligations under these contracts. Swaps are marked to market daily using either pricing vendor quotations, counterparty prices or model prices and the change in value, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Upfront payments made and/or received by the Funds are recorded as an asset and/or liability and realized gains or losses are recognized ratably over the contract’s term/event, with the exception of forward starting interest rate swaps, whose realized gains or losses are recognized ratably from the effective start date. Periodic payments received or made on swap contracts are recorded as realized gains or losses. Gains or losses are realized upon termination of a swap contract and are recorded on the Statement of Operations.

Total return swaps are agreements in which there is an exchange of cash flows whereby one party commits to make payments based on the total return (coupons plus capital gains/losses) of an underlying instrument in exchange for fixed or floating rate interest payments. To the extent the total return of the instrument or index underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, the Fund will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty. Credit default swaps are a type of swap agreement in which the protection “buyer” is generally obligated to pay the protection “seller” an upfront and/ or a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract provided that no credit event, such as a default, on a reference obligation has occurred. Credit default swaps (“CDS”) are typically two-party financial contracts that transfer credit exposure between the two parties. Under a typical CDS, one party (the “seller”) receives pre-determined periodic payments from the other party (the “buyer”). The seller agrees to make compensating specific payments to the buyer if a negative credit event occurs, such as the bankruptcy or default by the issuer of the underlying debt instrument. Swap agreements held at October 31, 2018 are disclosed after the Statement of Investments.

The average notional amount of the swap positions held in the ALPS | CoreCommodity Management CompleteCommodities® Strategy Fund for the Fiscal Year Ended October 31, 2018 was $409,504,788. The average notional amount of the swap positions held in the Clough China Fund for the Fiscal Year Ended October 31, 2018 was $862,910.

Futures: Each Fund may invest in futures contracts in accordance with their investment objectives. Each Fund does so for a variety of reasons including for cash management, hedging or non-hedging purposes in an attempt to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. A futures contract provides for the future sale by one party and purchase by another party of a specified quantity of the security or other financial instrument at a specified price and time. A futures contract on an index is an agreement pursuant to which two parties agree to take or make delivery of an amount of cash equal to the difference between the value of the index at the close of the last trading day of the contract and the price at which the index contract was originally written. Futures transactions may result in losses in excess of the amount invested in the futures contract. There can be no guarantee that there will be a correlation between price movements in the hedging vehicle and in the portfolio securities being hedged. An incorrect correlation could result in a loss on both the hedged securities in a Fund and the hedging vehicle so that the portfolio return might have been greater had hedging not been attempted. There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist at a time when a Fund seeks to close out a futures contract or a futures option position. Lack of a liquid market for any reason may prevent a Fund from liquidating an unfavorable position, and the Fund would remain obligated to meet margin requirements until the position is closed. In addition, a Fund could be exposed to risk if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts. With exchange traded futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Funds since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

Notes to Financial Statements

October 31, 2018

When a purchase or sale of a futures contract is made by a Fund, the Fund is required to deposit with its custodian (or broker, if legally permitted) a specified amount of liquid assets (“initial margin”). The margin required for a futures contract is set by the exchange on which the contract is traded and may be modified during the term of the contract. The initial margin is in the nature of a performance bond or good faith deposit on the futures contract that is returned to a Fund upon termination of the contract, assuming all contractual obligations have been satisfied. These amounts are included in Deposit with broker for futures contracts on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Each day a Fund may pay or receive cash, called “variation margin,” equal to the daily change in value of the futures contract. Such payments or receipts are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized gains or losses by a Fund. Variation margin does not represent a borrowing or loan by a Fund but is instead a settlement between a Fund and the broker of the amount one would owe the other if the futures contract expired. When the contract is closed, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.

The average value of futures contracts held in the ALPS | CoreCommodity Management CompleteCommodities® Strategy Fund for the Fiscal Year Ended October 31, 2018 was $54,645,180.

Option Contracts: Each Fund may enter into options transactions for hedging purposes and for non-hedging purposes such as seeking to enhance return. Each Fund may write covered put and call options on any stocks or stock indices, currencies traded on domestic and foreign securities exchanges, or futures contracts on stock indices, interest rates and currencies traded on domestic and, to the extent permitted by the CFTC, foreign exchanges. A call option on an asset written by a Fund obligates the Fund to sell the specified asset to the holder (purchaser) at a stated price (the exercise price) if the option is exercised before a specified date (the expiration date). A put option on an asset written by a Fund obligates the Fund to buy the specified asset from the purchaser at the exercise price if the option is exercised before the expiration date. Premiums received when writing options are recorded as liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current value of the options written.

Certain derivative contracts are executed under either standardized netting agreements or, for exchange-traded derivatives, the relevant contracts for a particular exchange which contain enforceable netting provisions. A derivative netting arrangement creates an enforceable right of set-off that becomes effective, and affects the realization of settlement on individual assets, liabilities and collateral amounts, only following a specified event of default or early termination. Default events may include the failure to make payments or deliver securities timely, material adverse changes in financial condition or insolvency, the breach of minimum regulatory capital requirements, or loss of license, charter or other legal authorization necessary to perform under the contract.

The following table presents financial instruments that are subject to enforceable netting arrangements or other similar agreements as of October 31, 2018:

October 31, 2018

Any amount of such payment not paid to Participating Organizations during the Fund’s fiscal year for such service activities shall be reimbursed to the Fund as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal year.

Networking fees are shown in the Statements of Operations, if applicable to the Fund.

9. INDEMNIFICATIONS

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and Trustees are indemnified against certain liability arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with service providers that may contain general indemnification clauses which may permit indemnification to the extent permissible under applicable law. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred.

10. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUCEMENTS

On October 4, 2018, the SEC amended Regulation S-X to require certain financial statement disclosure requirements to conform them to U.S. GAAP for investment companies. Effective November 4, 2018, the Funds adopted disclosure requirement changes for Regulation S-X and these changes are reflected throughout this report. The Funds’ adoption of those amendments, effective with the financial statements prepared as of September 30, 2018, had no effect on the Funds’ net assets or results of operations.

In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update “Premium Amortization on Purchased Callable Debt Securities” which amends the amortization period for a callable debt security held at a premium from the maturity date to the earliest call date. The guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those annual periods. Management is still assessing the financial statement impact of adoption.

We have also audited the accompanying consolidated statements of assets and liabilities, including the consolidated statements of investments, of ALPS | Kotak India Growth Fund and ALPS | CoreCommodity Management CompleteCommodities® Strategy Fund, two of the funds of the Trust, as of October 31, 2018; the related consolidated statements of operations for the year then ended, the consolidated statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the consolidated financial highlights for the years ended October 31, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, the period May 1, 2014 through October 31, 2014, and the year ended April 30, 2014; and the related notes.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the twelve funds constituting Financial Investors Trust, except for ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund and ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund as of October 31, 2018, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for the years ended October 31, 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, the period May 1, 2014 through October 31, 2014, and the year ended April 30, 2014 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund and ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund as of October 31, 2018; the results of their operations, changes in net assets, and financial highlights for the period from July 2, 2018 (commencement of operations) through October 31, 2018 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Funds’ financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Funds in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Funds are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Funds’ internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial highlights, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements and financial highlights. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements and financial highlights. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; when replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

The Board received and considered information including a comparison of the Smith Funds’ contractual and actual management fees (after waivers) with those of funds in the peer expense group and universe of funds provided by an independent provider of investment company data (the “Data Provider”). The Trustees noted that the contractual and actual management fee rates for Class I of the ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund are above its Data Provider expense group median, the contractual management fee rate for Class I of the ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund was below its Data Provider expense group median, and the actual management fee rate for Class I of the ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund was above its Data Provider expense group median.

Total Expense Ratios: The Trustees further reviewed and considered the total expense ratios (after waivers) of 0.670% and 0.490% for the Class I shares of the ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund and ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund, respectively. The Trustees noted that the total expense ratio (after waivers) of Class I of the ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund was above its respective Data Provider expense group median and the total expense ratio (after waivers) of Class I of the ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund was below its respective Data Provider expense group median.

Nature, Extent and Quality of the Services under the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements: The Trustees received and considered information regarding the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided to the Smith Funds under the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements. The Trustees reviewed certain background materials supplied by AAI and Smith Capital in their presentations, including their Forms ADV.

The Trustees reviewed and considered AAI’s and Smith Capital’s investment advisory personnel, their history as asset managers and their performance and the amount of assets currently under management by AAI and Smith Capital and their affiliated entities. The Trustees also reviewed the research and decision-making processes utilized by AAI and Smith Capital, including the methods adopted to seek to achieve compliance with the investment objectives, policies and restrictions of the Smith Funds.

The Trustees considered the background and experience of AAI’s and Smith Capital’s management in connection with the Smith Funds, including reviewing the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of the management team primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Smith Funds and the extent of the resources devoted to research and analysis of actual and potential investments.

The Trustees also reviewed, among other things, AAI’s and Smith Capital’s insider trading policies and procedures and their Codes of Ethics.

Performance: The Trustees noted that since the Smith Funds have not yet begun operations, there is no performance to be reviewed or analyzed at this time. The Trustees further considered the reputation of Smith Capital’s personnel generally and its investment techniques, risk management controls, and decision-making processes.

Comparable Accounts: The Trustees noted that Smith Capital has no other clients at this time.

Profitability: The Trustees noted that given the start-up nature of Smith Capital, there were no financial statements to review. The Trustees considered the projected profitability analysis prepared by Smith Capital and AAI based on the fees to be paid under the Investment Advisory Agreement with respect to the Smith Funds.

Economies of Scale: The Trustees considered whether economies of scale in the provision of services to the Smith Funds will be passed along to the shareholders under the agreements.

Other Benefits to the Adviser: The Trustees reviewed and considered any other incidental benefits to be derived by Smith Capital or AAI from their relationship with the Smith Funds, including whether soft dollar arrangements would be used.

In approving AAI as the Smith Funds’ investment adviser and Smith Capital as the Smith Funds’ sub-adviser and the fees to be charged under the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees concluded that no single factor reviewed by the Trustees was identified by the Trustees to be determinative as the principal factor in whether to approve the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements. Further, the Independent Trustees were advised by separate independent legal counsel throughout the process. The Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, concluded that:

● the contractual and actual management fee rates for Class I of the ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund are above its Data Provider expense group median, the contractual management fee rate for Class I of the ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund was below its Data Provider expense group median, and the actual management fee rate for Class I of the ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund was above its Data Provider expense group median;

● Smith Capital’s fees under its sub-advisory agreements are to be paid directly by AAI;

● the total expense ratio (after waivers) of Class I of the ALPS | Smith Total Return Bond Fund was above its respective Data Provider expense group median and the total expense ratio (after waivers) of Class I of the ALPS | Smith Short Duration Bond Fund was below its respective Data Provider expense group median;

● the nature, extent and quality of services to be rendered by AAI and Smith Capital under the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements, respectively, with respect to the Smith Funds were adequate;

● since the Smith Funds had not yet begun operations, there was no performance to be reviewed or analyzed at this time;

● there were no directly comparable accounts managed by Smith Capital for the Board to consider;

● the profit, if any, anticipated to be realized by AAI and Smith Capital in connection with the operation of the Smith Funds is not unreasonable to the Smith Funds; and

● there were no material economies of scale or other incidental benefits accruing to AAI and Smith Capital in connection with their relationship with the Smith Funds.

Based on the Trustees’ deliberations and their evaluation of the information described above, the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, concluded that AAI’s and Smith Capital’s compensation for investment advisory and sub-advisory services is consistent with the best interests of the Smith Funds and its shareholders.
