NEW YORK, Nov. 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- OppenheimerFunds, a leading global asset manager, is pleased to announce the one-year anniversary of its suite of factor ETFs, led by the Oppenheimer Russell 1000 Dynamic Multi-Factor ETF (OMFL), the top performing large blend multi-factor ETF over the past year.

Sharon French, Head of Beta Solutions, OppenheimerFunds, commented, "We are excited to see the market recognition for our dynamic multi-factor approach that utilizes the expertise of our Global Multi-Asset team to adjust factor exposure based on specific market and economic signals. Our outperformance against both our benchmark and category over the past year further validates the full merits of our multi-factor investment approach to clients."

Morningstar Ranking is based on total return as of 11/8/18. The Fund's total-return percentile rank is relative to all funds that are in the Morningstar ETF Large Blend and Small Blend categories. The highest (or most favorable) percentile rank is 1 and the lowest (or least favorable) percentile rank is 100. The top performing fund in a category will always receive a rank of 1. Fund rankings are subject to change monthly.

An investment in the Fund is subject to investment risk, including the possible loss of principal amount invested. The Fund, seeks to provide exposure to investments based on the following factors: value, momentum, quality, low volatility and size, and to weight such factors based on changes in the economic cycle. There can be no assurance that doing so will enhance the Fund's performance over time. Investing significantly in a particular region, industry, sector or issuer may increase volatility and risk. Fund returns may not match the return of its respective index, known as non-correlation risk, due to operating expenses incurred by the Fund. Because the Fund has the potential to be rebalanced monthly, portfolio turnover may exceed 100%. The greater the portfolio turnover, the greater the transaction costs, which could have an adverse effect on Fund performance.

Shares of Oppenheimer funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank, are not guaranteed by any bank, are not insured by the FDIC or any other agency, and involve investment risks, including the possible loss of the principal amount invested.

Before investing in any of the Oppenheimer funds, investors should carefully consider a fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses.
