Risk Factors: Fluctuations in exchange rates can affect the value of the Fund and the income from it. The Fund may invest in emerging markets that may be less liquid and may have less reliable custody arrangements than mature markets and may involve a higher degree or risk. The Fund may select fewer equities in which to invest and this concentration carries more risk than funds investing in a larger number of companies.
