Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Fund is to replicate the price performance of silver bullion, less the Fund's expenses and fees. The Fund is not actively managed. The Fund does not anticipate making regular distributions. The Fund will invest the proceeds of the Offering in holdings of unencumbered silver bullion, in 1,000 troy ounce international bar sizes, and will not speculate with regard to short-term changes in silver prices.

Investment Strategy

All of the silver bullion purchased by the Fund will be certified either "London Good Delivery" or "COMEX Good Delivery" by the relevant vendor, to provide investors with the ability to invest in silver bullion in a convenient, tradable and secure manner. SVR.UN employs a currency hedging strategy to U.S. Dollar ("USD") to reduce the currency risk exposure of the Fund as silver bullion is priced in USD, while the units of SVR do not employ any hedging strategy.
