Investment Strategy:

The KraneShares Dragon Capital Vietnam Growth Index ETF (Ticker: KPHO) seeks to track the performance of the Dragon Capital Merqube Vietnam Growth Index. The index is comprised of companies that display attractive growth and value metrics, good corporate governance, and align with Vietnam's underlying growth drivers.

Vietnam Current Highlights:

  • Since reform and opening up in 1986, a process known locally as "Doi Moi" or "Renewal", Vietnam has opened its capital markets to foreign investors, expanded exports substantially, and grown its consumer economy.
  • Vietnam is forecasted to be the fastest-growing economy in the Asia-Pacific region in 2026.*
  • As a non-aligned nation situated near a key crossroads of ocean shipping lanes with an expansive coastline and multiple ports, Vietnam has benefited from the migration of manufacturing centers for global businesses wary of geopolitical risks to their supply chains.
  • Vietnam has been upgraded from Frontier Market to Secondary Emerging Market by global index provider FTSE Russell, with the reclassification set to go into effect in September 2026.³ It is also on the radar for a similar upgrade from MSCI, potentially leading to significant foreign inflows.

KPHO Features:

  • Exposure to Vietnamese market leaders based on fundamental and proprietary growth criteria.
  • Sub-advised by Dragon Capital Management Ltd., the largest fund manager in Vietnam,¹ with over 30 years of experience¹ in the market, and utilizing their locally-listed ETF to access Foreign Ownership Limit (FOL)-constrained stocks.
  • Certain stocks in Vietnam have reached their FOLs due to strong international investor demand. KPHO is the only US-listed ETF to provide access to FOL stocks through ownership of the Dragon Capital Diamond ETF.²

Vietnam has a much younger population than its large East Asian peers, which can support a stable workforce and lower entitlement costs.

Future growth in Vietnam could have three key drivers:

Urbanization

The middle-class consumer in urban settings could drive demand for more products and services.

Digitization

Vietnam is rapidly digitizing and might be "leapfrogging" legacy technologies and practices used in the West.¹

Infrastructure

Vietnam is significantly upgrading its infrastructure, which could lead to increased trade with the rest of the world and consumer spending.

¹ Data from Dragon Capital.

Page 10

Vietnam's rapid adoption of new technologies might be producing the "leapfrogging" effect we have observed in other developing nations.

The image shows a chart illustrating technological leapfrogging across four sectors:

Payment

Cash → Checking → Credit → Mobile Pay

Commerce

Local Market → Big Box Retailer → E-Commerce

Transportation

Taxi → Car Ownership → App-Based Ride Sharing

Healthcare

Local Medical Care → Hospitals → E-Health

Page 11

FTSE Russell's upgrade of Vietnam from Frontier to Secondary Emerging Market could lead to a similar upgrade from MSCI and significant inflows to Vietnam's equity market.

  • Vietnam was upgraded by FTSE Russell in October of 2025 following improvements to market mechanics, foreign ownership limits, and its disclosure regime.

  • FTSE Russell will implement the upgrade in its global indexes September of 2026.

  • While Vietnam would occupy a smaller weight in Emerging Markets benchmarks, it would share in a far larger opportunity set of benchmarked assets.

  • Inclusion could lead to $2.5 billion to $7.5 billion in active flow before and $500 million to $1 billion in passive flow immediately after.

  • The World Bank estimates that improvements to market structures and their inclusion in global investable benchmarks could account for $25 billion worth of inflow into Vietnam's equity market by 2030, about 8% of Vietnam's current total market capitalization of all listed stocks.

The image shows a comparison of Vietnam's weight and potential index-driven investment across different indexes:

FTSE Frontier Markets Index: 35% weight, $1.7B investment, $4.9B* benchmarked AUM

FTSE Emerging Markets Index: 1% weight, $2.0B investment, $200B* benchmarked AUM

MSCI Frontier Markets Index: 31% weight, $1.6B investment, $5.0B* benchmarked AUM

MSCI Emerging Markets Index: 1% weight, $14.0B investment, $1.4T* benchmarked AUM

Potential additional investment: +$0.3B (FTSE), +$12.4B (MSCI)

Impact of Past Upgrades

Saudi Arabia and Kuwait were upgraded from Frontier to Emerging markets by both MSCI and FTSE in recent years.

FTSE Upgrade Date MSCI Upgrade Date Stock Market Foreign Ownership (%)
Saudi Arabia 2019 2019 13%
Kuwait 2018 2020 15%

There is no assurance that Vietnam will be upgraded or that such increases in foreign ownership will occur. Market upgrades do not guarantee positive performance.

Foreign Ownership in Vietnam

Certain stocks in Vietnam have reached their Foreign Ownership Limits (FOLs) due to strong demand from international investors. KPHO is the only US-listed ETF to provide access to FOL stocks through our partnership with Dragon Capital.

  • We provide FOL exposure through the Dragon Capital Diamond ETF, which has an approximate 20% weight in KPHO.

  • Since May of 2020, the Diamond Index has outperformed the Market Vector Vietnam Index by 108%.

  • The Diamond ETF tracks the Vietnam Diamond Index, which exclusively holds stocks that have reached their foreign ownership limits.

  • Dragon Capital's Diamond ETF is the largest ETF listed in Vietnam.

  • The Index is dynamically rebalanced quarterly to ensure only FOL stocks are included.

The image shows a performance comparison chart between the Vietnam Diamond Index and Market Vector Vietnam Local Index, demonstrating significant outperformance of the Diamond Index since 2020.

The Dragon Capital Merqube Vietnam Growth Index (KPHO Index) currently offers a lower average multiple compared to other Vietnam indexes, MSCI Emerging Markets, and the S&P 500 Index.

Dragon Capital MerQube Vietnam Growth Index Methodology & Screening Process

By Listing Conditions

No stocks with publicly announced violations, warnings, or suspended trading. Stocks must have been listed on the Ho Chi Minh Stock Exchange for at least 3 years.

Free Float Market Cap & Turnover

Free float market cap must be VND 1 trillion (approx. $38 million) or greater and daily turnover must be 0.05% of their FFMC, except for stocks with average daily turnover of VND 50 billion or greater.

Fundamental Ratios & Growth Ranking

Assets to Equity Ratio for capital markets companies must be above 2.5. Assets to Equity Ratio for all others must be greater than 2. 1 and 3-year Forward Price-to-Earnings (P/E) must be less than 30. Banks are automatically selected. Stocks are ranked and weighted by ASCG and TEG.

KPHO

40 Stocks + Diamond ETF Maximum 24% weight for the Diamond ETF.

Key: FFMC = Free-float market cap A/E = Assets to equity ASCG = Adjusted Share Capital Growth TEG = Total equity growth VND = Vietnamese Dong

The Diamond ETF is a foreign ETF that tracks the Vietnam Diamond Index. KPHO currently expects to invest in a foreign ETF, which is advised by an affiliate of Dragon Capital.

KPHO utilizes a sector-agnostic approach that reflects Vietnam's current tilt toward financials in the equity market.

  • KPHO is currently composed of 54% financials, which is similar in concentration to the Ho Chi Minh City Stock Exchange.

  • As a developing economy, Vietnam's stock market is still heavily concentrated in the banking and financial industries.

  • As the government accelerates credit growth, the bank channel is expected to be utilized as a medium for capital to permeate the economy more broadly and deeply, a process from which major banks are poised to benefit.

  • As Vietnam's market develops, the index is likely to gradually include fewer financial companies and shift toward more consumer and technology-oriented industries.

  • Dragon Capital views the current pipeline of initial public offerings (IPOs) as potentially adding more diversity to the index in the medium term.

The image shows a pie chart of the Dragon Capital Vietnam Growth Fundamental-Infused Index Sector Breakdown:

  • Financials: 55%
  • Industrials: 11%
  • Materials: 11%
  • Real Estate: 7%
  • Consumer Staples: 7%
  • Information Technology: 4%
  • Consumer Discretionary: 3%
  • Health Care: 1%
  • Energy: 1%

Page 17

We believe the equity market's tilt toward financials could change over time as more Vietnamese companies list publicly.

Vietnam has a strong IPO pipeline in the coming years, according to Dragon Capital.

$40 Billion In the Next 3 Years

  • CONSUMER: $12.8bn
  • CONGLOMERATES: $13.3bn
  • FINANCIAL SERVICES: $5bn
  • TECH & IT SERVICES: $4.7bn
  • ENTERTAINMENT: $0.8bn
  • HEALTHCARE: $1.9bn
  • INFRASTRUCTURE: $1bn

Important Notes:

Carefully consider the Funds' investment objectives, risk factors, charges and expenses before investing. This and additional information can be found in the Funds' full and summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting www.kraneshares.com/kpho. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Risk Disclosures:

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal. There can be no assurance that a Fund will achieve its stated objectives. Indices are unmanaged and do not include the effect of fees. One cannot invest directly in an index.

This information should not be relied upon as research, investment advice, or a recommendation regarding any products, strategies, or any security in particular. This material is strictly for illustrative, educational, or informational purposes and is subject to change. Certain content represents an assessment of the market environment at a specific time and is not intended to be a forecast of future events or a guarantee of future results; material is as of the dates noted and is subject to change without notice.

Investing in Vietnamese companies involves significant risks that are greater than those found in developed markets and are typical of both emerging and frontier markets. These risks include political and economic instability, government intervention, and the potential for expropriation or nationalization of assets. The Vietnamese government may impose restrictions on foreign investment, capital repatriation, or ownership limits, which could affect your ability to access or withdraw your investment. Vietnam's economy is highly dependent on trading relationships with countries such as the United States, China, and Japan, and a decline in demand from these trading partners could negatively impact Vietnamese companies and the Fund. As an emerging and frontier market, Vietnam's financial markets are less developed, more volatile, and less liquid than those of developed countries, and are subject to higher inflation, currency fluctuations, and regulatory changes. There may also be restrictions or delays on moving money in and out of the country, and additional taxes or costs for foreign investors. The securities markets in Vietnam may experience trading suspensions, low trading volumes, or sudden price swings, and the government may exercise substantial influence over many aspects of the private sector. These and other risks may result in greater losses, delays, or volatility compared to investments in more developed markets.

As an ETF, the Fund may trade at prices above or below its net asset value, especially during periods of market volatility or if there are few financial institutions creating and redeeming shares. The Fund's use of cash for creations and redemptions can lead to higher taxes and transaction costs, which may reduce returns. Because the Fund invests in foreign markets—including indirect exposure through a locally traded Vietnamese ETF—its shares may trade at prices that differ from the value of the underlying securities, and there is no guarantee that an active trading market will always exist for the Fund's shares.

The Fund may invest in derivatives, which are often more volatile than other investments and may magnify the Fund's gains or losses. A derivative (i.e., futures/forward contracts, swaps, and options) is a contract that derives its value from the performance of an underlying asset. The primary risk of derivatives is that changes in the asset's market value and the derivative may not be proportionate, and some derivatives can have the potential for unlimited losses. Derivatives are also subject to liquidity risk and counterparty risk. The Fund is subject to liquidity risk, meaning that certain investments may become difficult to purchase or sell at a reasonable time and price. If a transaction for these securities is large, it may not be possible to initiate, which may cause the Fund to suffer losses. Counterparty risk is the risk of loss in the event that the counterparty to an agreement fails to make required payments or otherwise comply with the terms of the derivative.

Narrowly focused investments typically exhibit higher volatility. The Fund's assets are expected to be concentrated in a sector, industry, market, or group of concentrations to the extent that the Underlying Index has such concentrations. The securities or futures in that concentration could react similarly to market developments. Thus, the Fund is subject to loss due to adverse occurrences that affect that concentration. In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, investments in smaller companies typically exhibit higher volatility. KPHO is non-diversified.

Page 24

Risk Disclosures (Continued):

ETF shares are bought and sold on an exchange at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. However, shares may be redeemed at NAV directly by certain authorized broker-dealers (Authorized Participants) in very large creation/redemption units. The returns shown do not represent the returns you would receive if you traded shares at other times. Shares may trade at a premium or discount to their NAV in the secondary market. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns. Beginning 12/23/2020, market price returns are based on the official closing price of an ETF share or, if the official closing price isn't available, the midpoint between the national best bid and national best offer ("NBBO") as of the time the ETF calculates the current NAV per share. Prior to that date, market price returns were based on the midpoint between the Bid and Ask price. NAVs are calculated using prices as of 4:00 PM Eastern Time.

The KraneShares ETFs and KFA Funds ETFs are distributed by SEI Investments Distribution Company (SIDCO), 1 Freedom Valley Drive, Oaks, PA 19456, which is not affiliated with Krane Funds Advisors, LLC, the Investment Adviser for the Funds, or any sub-advisers for the Funds.
