For Investment Professional Use Only.
 
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. Shares of any ETF are bought and sold at market price (not NAV), may trade at a discount or premium to NAV and are not individually redeemed from the Fund. Brokerage commissions will reduce returns.
 
As with any investment, you could lose all or part of your investment in the Fund, and the Fund’s performance could trail that of other investments. The Fund is subject to certain risks, including the principal risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) per share, trading price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objective.
 
The description of TCW ETF’s investment strategy is intended to be representative but may be changed from time to time by TCW, and TCW may alter the information at its discretion. TCW intends to be focused and directed in the selection of opportunities to actively engage with portfolio companies of the Fund. As we seek to deliver on our client’s financial objectives, engagement and active ownership are integral components of TCW’s research and investment process. Our data-informed engagement and active ownership practices achieve several objectives. The information elicited from these practices not only helps improve our fundamental research, but our engagement and active ownership practices may also have positive impacts on the company or other entities by suggesting best practices in addressing critical, financially material issues in areas of sustainability, corporate governance, or executive compensation. In TCW’s view, active ownership improves value and informs future investment decisions. Please see etf.tcw.com for complete investment risks.
 
Before investing you should carefully consider the fund’s investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. This and other information is in the prospectus, a copy of which may be obtained from etf.tcw.com. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest.
