Supplement dated January 9, 2020 to the current Statement of Additional Information (SAI), as may be supplemented

Effective January 1, 2020, the following information supplements and supersedes any information to the contrary contained in the SAI.

The “Placement of Redemption Orders Outside Clearing Process—Foreign Funds” section is revised and restated in its entirety as follows:

Placement of Redemption Orders Outside Clearing Process—Foreign Funds

Arrangements satisfactory to the Trust must be in place for the Participating Party to transfer the Creation Units through DTC on or before the settlement date. Redemptions of Shares for Fund Securities will be subject to compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and a fund (whether or not it otherwise permits or requires cash redemptions) reserves the right to redeem Creation Units for cash to the extent that the fund could not lawfully deliver specific Fund Securities upon redemptions or could not do so without first registering the Fund Securities under such laws.

In connection with taking delivery of Shares for Fund Securities upon redemption of Creation Units, a redeeming shareholder or entity acting on behalf of a redeeming shareholder must maintain appropriate custody arrangements with a qualified broker dealer, bank or other custody providers in each jurisdiction in which any of the Fund Securities are customarily traded, to which account such Fund Securities will be delivered. If neither the redeeming shareholder nor the entity acting on behalf of a redeeming shareholder has appropriate arrangements to take delivery of the Fund Securities in the applicable foreign jurisdiction and it is not possible to make other such arrangements, or if it is not possible to effect deliveries of the Fund Securities in such jurisdictions, the Trust may, in its discretion, exercise its option to redeem such Shares in cash, and the redeeming shareholder will be required to receive its redemption proceeds in cash.

Deliveries of redemption proceeds generally will be made within two business days (three business days for John Hancock Multifactor Emerging Markets ETF). Due to the schedule of holidays in certain countries or for other reasons, however, the delivery of redemption proceeds may take longer than two business days (three business days for John Hancock Multifactor Emerging Markets ETF) after the day on which the redemption request is received in proper form. In such cases, the local market settlement procedures will not commence until the end of the local holiday periods. In addition to holidays, other unforeseeable closings in a non-U.S. market due to emergencies may also prevent a fund from delivering securities within the normal settlement period. Market closures during regular holidays in an applicable non-U.S. market that are not holidays observed in the U.S. market may prevent a fund from executing securities transactions within the normal settlement period. Unforeseeable closures of applicable non-U.S. markets

may have a similar impact. During such closures, the fund may be required to rely on other methods to satisfy redemption requests, including the use of its line of credit, interfund lending facility, redemptions in kind, or such other liquidity means or facilities as the fund may have in place from time to time, or the delivery of redemption proceeds may be extended beyond the normal settlement cycle.

The holidays applicable to a fund are listed below. The proclamation of new holidays, the treatment by market participants of certain days as “informal holidays” (e.g., days on which no or limited securities transactions occur, as a result of substantially shortened trading hours), the elimination of existing holidays or changes in local securities delivery practices, could affect the information set forth herein at some time in the future.

For the period January 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020, the dates of regular holidays affecting the relevant securities markets in which a fund invests are as follows (please note these holiday schedules are subject to potential changes in the relevant securities markets):
