Any analysis or information presented is intended for illustrative purposes only and should not be relied upon as a forecast, prediction, projection, guarantee, research, recommendation or advice of any kind, including investment, tax, accounting, or legal advice. Nothing herein is intended to be a recommendation of any specific security or investment strategy or to meet the investment objectives or needs of any specific investor. Any decision based upon the output and information contained on this Analysis Tool are the sole responsibility of the user.
Investment objectives have been provided for illustrative purposes only and do not represent all possible investment objectives. The table below describes the asset allocation and risk tolerance assumptions and criteria considered in determining the illustrative investment objective portfolios discussed herein:
• Conservative: Illustrative portfolios designed to pursue capital preservation and income generation.
• Moderate: Illustrative portfolios designed to pursue capital appreciation and income generation.
• Aggressive: Illustrative portfolios designed to pursue capital appreciation.
• Income: Illustrative portfolios designed to pursue income generation.
2. Performance information generated by Apollo Allocation Pro, powered by iCapital Architect, regarding the historical performance of various investment outcomes is hypothetical in nature, does not reflect actual investments results and is not intended to predict the performance of the portfolio being analyzed and is not a guarantee of future results. Performance information is premised on several assumptions and has certain inherent limitations, as described herein. Because of the incorporation of proxy performance, among other things, the estimates shown may differ materially from actual investments. Hypothetical performance results have certain inherent limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, hypothetical results do not represent actual investment results. Hypothetical performance results set forth herein are based on a number of assumptions (not all of which are described herein) which may or may not be accurate, and therefore actual returns may be substantially less than those illustrated. Simulated investment programs in general are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made by the inclusion of any hypothetical illustration presented herein that the returns for any investment will achieve similar results.
Historical performance available on the site is based on third-party indices, described in "Proxies Disclosures". THIS HISTORICAL, INDEX PERFORMANCE IS NOT ACTUAL PERFORMANCE BUT IS PROXY PERFORMANCE AND MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM ACTUAL PERFORMANCE.
Proxy performance consists of the performance of indices that are intended to be representative of an actual investment in the asset class being analyzed. Proxy performance is not actual, historical performance of any financial instrument. Proxy performance also does not reflect any fees and expenses of an actual financial instrument.
The proxy instruments available on the Site are subject to change in the discretion of iCapital and/or Apollo.
Proxy performance has many inherent limitations, and no representation is being made that any investment strategy has, will or is likely to achieve returns similar to proxy performance. There is no guarantee that a proxy will be representative of the historical or future performance of the investment objective being proxied or the industry, sector or fund type represented by the proxy. Numerous factors, such as the use of assumptions and historical market returns and data, make calculations and analysis uncertain, and there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical proxy performance results and the actual results achieved by any particular investment program. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results generally (including proxy performance) is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight or may otherwise reflect a hindsight bias. In addition, hypothetical performance does not involve actual financial risk or investment decisions, and no hypothetical investment record can completely account for the impact of actual financial risk in actual investments, such as the ability to withstand losses or adhere to a particular investment program in spite of losses, which can adversely affect actual investment results. There are numerous other factors related to the markets in general or to the implementation of any specific investment program in particular which cannot be fully accounted for in the use of proxy performance results – all of which can adversely affect actual investment results, and none of which are accounted for in the Charts or their resulting data.
The proxy assets may not be representative of the asset class or product sector as a whole, or any particular financial instrument.

3. Cumulative Return is the cumulative return of the investment over the relevant period.
4. Annualized Return is the total return of the investment, expressed as an annually compounded rate of return.
5. Annualized Volatility is an annualized measure of deviation from the annualized return of the investment.
6. Max Drawdown is the greatest loss of value that the investment experienced over the relevant period. Date Of Drawdown is the time interval when the max drawdown for the investment occurred.
7. The Growth Chart is premised on several assumptions and has certain inherent limitations, as described herein. Because of the incorporation of proxy performance, among other things, the estimates shown may differ materially from actual performance of any investment program or instrument.
The Growth Chart calculates the aggregate cumulative value of a hypothetical $100,000 investment for the time period selected by the user, assuming the full amount is invested on the start date and the portfolio allocation remains steady.
The Growth Chart uses proxy index performance for all asset classes.
Portfolio-level performance is calculated based on the weight of each proxy index. The weight of each proxy index in a portfolio is held constant by rebalancing the portfolio holdings monthly. If one or more proxy indices in the portfolio have quarterly returns, the portfolio will be rebalanced quarterly. The Growth Chart does not account for the effect of any portfolio-level fees and expenses that may apply, such as account management fees.
iCapital and/or Apollo may change, alter or replace the Growth Chart or this Methodology in its discretion at any time upon notice in the form of a revised Growth Chart or Methodology made available on the Site.
8. The Past Market Event Analysis is premised on several assumptions and has certain inherent limitations, as described herein. Because of the incorporation of proxy performance, among other things, the estimates shown may differ materially from actual performance of any investment program or instrument.
The Past Market Event Analysis calculates the aggregate historical performance of a proxy portfolio during specified historical scenarios, assuming the full amount is invested on the start date of a historical market scenario and the portfolio allocation remains steady for the relevant period.
The Past Market Event Analysis uses historical performance of proxy indices.
Portfolio-level performance is calculated based on the weight of each proxy index in the portfolio. The Past Market Event Analysis does not account for the effect of any portfolio-level fees and expenses that may apply, such as account management fees.
Historical market scenarios are assumed to start on the first date of the calendar quarter in which the applicable market event begins and to end on the last date of the calendar quarter in which the market event concludes (which may be the same quarter as the start of the market event).
iCapital and/or Apollo may change, alter or replace the Past Market Event Analysis or this Methodology in its discretion at any time upon notice in the form of a revised Past Market Event Analysis or Methodology made available on the Site.
