The investment objective of the FT Vest Laddered Small Cap Moderate Buffer ETF (the "Fund") is to seek to provide investors with capital appreciation. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by providing investors with small cap equity market exposure while attempting to limit downside risk through a laddered portfolio of FT Vest U.S. Small Cap Moderate Buffer ETFs (the "Underlying ETFs"). Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest substantially all of its assets in the Underlying ETFs, which seek to provide investors with returns (before fees and expenses) that match the price return of IWM, up to a predetermined upside cap, while providing a buffer (before fees and expenses) against the first 15% of IWM losses, over a defined one-year period. The Fund intends only to acquire shares of Underlying ETFs in the secondary market and will not engage in any principal transactions with the Underlying ETFs.

Under normal circumstances, the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities. It may also invest in other equity securities not included in the S&P 500 Index.
