(1) Certain Portfolios have entered into fee waiver and/or expense assumption arrangements with the Advisor. In these cases, the Advisor has contractually agreed, under certain circumstances, to waive certain fees and/or assume certain expenses of the Portfolio. Unless otherwise stated in the prospectus, the fee waiver and/or expense assumption agreement will remain in effect for one year from the date of the prospectus and continue in effect from year to year thereafter unless terminated by a Portfolio or the Advisor. Net expense ratio reflects the total annual fund operating expenses of the Portfolio after taking into account any such fee waiver and/or expense assumption arrangements. Please read the Portfolio's prospectus for details and more information.
Shares of The DFA Short Term Investment Fund have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and are not being offered to the public.
Performance data shown represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance shown. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance includes reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. Returns for periods shorter than one year are not annualized.
For ETFs, the market price return is calculated from closing prices as determined by the fund’s listing exchange. If you trade your shares at another time, your return may differ. For the period from inception date to listing date, the NAV of each fund is used as a proxy for the market price to calculate returns.
ETFs trade like stocks, fluctuate in market value and may trade either at a premium or discount to their net asset value (NAV). ETF shares trade at market price and are not individually redeemable with the issuing fund, other than in large share amounts called creation units. ETFs are subject to risk similar to those of stocks, including those regarding short-selling and margin account maintenance. Brokerage commissions and expenses will reduce returns.
