Investors should note that investment in foreign securities involve additional risks due to currency fluctuations, economic and political conditions, and differences in financial reporting standards. Smaller company stocks are more volatile and less liquid than large, more established company securities. The small and mid cap companies the Fund may invest in may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger companies and may be more volatile; the price movements of the Fund's shares may reflect that volatility.
Fixed income securities will increase or decrease in value based on changes in interest rates. If rates increase, the value of the Fund's fixed income securities generally declines. If interest rates fall, the value of fixed income securities generally increase. Long-term fixed income securities or instruments will normally have more price volatility because of this risk than short term fixed income securities or instruments. Below investment grade fixed income securities, also known as "junk bonds," are not investment grade and are generally considered speculative because they present a greater risk of loss than higher quality debt securities. Investors should note that investments in foreign securities involve additional risks due to currency fluctuations, economic and political conditions, and differences in financial reporting standards. Other risks may include and are not limited to liquidity, loan-related, currency, hedging, derivatives and credit risks.
