SS&C ALPS Advisors Announces Changes to the ALPS | O’Shares Europe Quality Dividend ETF

SS&C ALPS Advisors (the “Adviser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of SS&C Technologies Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: SSNC), announced changes with respect to the ALPS | O’Shares Europe Quality Dividend ETF (Cboe BZX: OEUR) effective today, October 1, 2025. The following highlights the main components of the strategic changes:

  • New Fund Name: ALPS | O’Shares International Developed Quality Dividend ETF
  • New Fund Ticker: OEFA
  • New Underlying Index Name: O’Shares International Developed Quality Dividend Index
  • New Underlying Index Ticker: OEFAX

Strategy Change Summary

The ALPS | O’Shares International Developed Quality Dividend ETF (Cboe BZX: OEFA, the “Fund”) seeks to track the performance, before fees and expenses, of the O’Shares International Developed Quality Dividend Index (“OEFAX” or the “Underlying Index”). OEFAX is designed to select the top 50 highest weight, sector-specific companies in the large- and mid-cap developed ex-US market based on high quality, low volatility, dividend yield and dividend quality factors. Relative to a European-only investment universe, the Adviser believes that the change to the Underlying Index will broaden the Fund’s investable universe and result in higher-quality portfolio holdings.

Important Disclosures

An investor should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. To obtain a prospectus containing this and other information, call 1-866-759-5679 or visit www.alpsfunds.com. Read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Shares of ETFs are bought and sold at market price (not NAV) and are not individually redeemable.

All investments are subject to risks, including the loss of money and the possible loss of the entire principal amount invested. Additional information regarding the risks of this investment is available in the prospectus.

Diversification does not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment losses.

Concentration in a particular industry or sector will subject the Fund to loss due to adverse occurrences that may affect that industry or sector. A Fund’s emphasis on dividend-paying stocks involves the risk that such stocks may fall out of favor with investors and underperform the market. Also, a company may reduce or eliminate its dividend after the Fund’s purchase of such a company’s securities. Returns on investments in foreign securities could be more volatile than, or trail the returns on, investments in US securities. Exposures to foreign securities entail special risks, including political, diplomatic, economic, foreign market and trading risks. In addition, a Fund’s investments in securities denominated in other currencies could decline due to changes in local currency relative to the value of the US dollar, which may affect the Fund’s returns.

The Fund employs a “passive management” - or indexing - investment approach and seeks investment results that correspond (before fees and expenses) generally to the performance of its underlying index. Unlike many investment companies, the Fund is not “actively” managed. Therefore, it would not necessarily sell or buy a security unless that security is removed from or added to the underlying index, respectively.

ALPS Advisors, Inc., registered investment adviser with the SEC, is the investment adviser to the Fund. ALPS Advisors, Inc., ALPS Distributors, Inc. and ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc., affiliated entities, are unaffiliated with O’Shares Investments.

ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc. is the distributor for the Fund.
