This ETF is different from traditional ETFs. Traditional ETFs tell the public what assets they hold each day. This ETF will not. This may create additional risks for your investment. For example:

 - You may have to pay more money to trade the ETF’s shares. This ETF will provide less information to traders, who tend to charge more for trades when they have less information.

 - The price you pay to buy ETF shares on an exchange may not match the value of the ETF’s portfolio. The same is true when you sell shares. These price differences may be greater for this ETF compared to other ETFs because it provides less information to traders.

 - These additional risks may be even greater in bad or uncertain market conditions.

 - The ETF will publish on its website each day a “Proxy Portfolio” designed to help trading in shares of the ETF. While the Proxy Portfolio includes some of the ETF’s holdings, it is not the ETF’s actual portfolio.

The differences between this ETF and other ETFs may also have advantages. By keeping certain information about the ETF secret, this ETF may face less risk that other traders can predict or copy its investment strategy. This may improve the ETF’s performance. If other traders are able to copy or predict the ETF’s investment strategy, however, this may hurt the ETF’s performance. For additional information regarding the unique attributes and risks of the ETF, see the Principal Risks section of the prospectus.

Rollovers: Moving your 401(k) & retirement assets

When getting a new job or retiring you may want to move your accumulated retirement assets, including your 401(k)s, to a consolidated account. Consider moving your assets to an IRA with Thrivent Mutual Funds. There are several ways available depending on where the assets currently are held and how the request is completed. Beyond rollovers, you should understand your options, weigh the pros and cons and make a choice that is right for your goals and circumstances.

Direct & indirect rollover

  • Direct rollover: move assets directly into your Thrivent Mutual Funds IRA from your employer plan. You don't take receipt of the funds, so no federal tax withholding is required. And, the one-rollover-per-year rule does not apply.
  • Indirect rollover: take receipt of your retirement assets and deposit them into your IRA within 60 days. Keep in mind 20% tax withholding is mandatory for distributions from employer qualified plans. One-rollover-per-year rule applies to IRAs, but not to qualified employer plans.

IRA to IRA transfer

  • Assets move from one institution to another to the same type of account (e.g., IRA to IRA).
  • You don’t take receipt of the funds, and no federal tax withholding is required.
  • The one-rollover-per-year rule does not apply.

Roth IRA conversion

  • A retirement account (like a Traditional IRA or employer retirement plan) is converted to a Roth IRA.
  • Some or all assets may be subject to taxes, due for the year of conversion.
  • Indirect rollover: take receipt of your traditional retirement assets and deposit them into your Roth IRA within 60 days. Keep in mind 20% tax withholding is mandatory for distributions from employer qualified plans.

Mutual funds 101

Over 100 million people in the U.S. are invested in mutual funds.1 Here’s everything you need to know to get started.


* IRAs provide increased flexibility on early withdrawals due to additional IRS exceptions to the 10% early withdrawal penalty for IRA distributions. Examples include first time home purchase and qualified higher education expenses. See IRS Publication 590B for more details. However, by rolling over to an IRA, you lose the option for penalty-free distribution from 401(k) plans relating to employers from whom you retired in the year you reached age 55 or after.
