When investing the Fund's assets, the Subadviser follows a value style. This means that the Subadviser buys stocks that it believes have lower prices than their true worth. For example, stocks may be "undervalued" because the issuing companies are part of industries that are currently out of favor with investors. However, even in those industries, certain companies may have high rates of growth of earnings and be financially sound.
When purchasing or selling individual securities, the Subadviser considers each of the following value characteristics:
Generally, the Subadviser considers price-to-earnings and yield as the most important of these value characteristics. Under normal market circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 40% of its total assets in companies located in a number of countries outside the U.S.

From time to time, certain fees and/or expenses have been voluntarily waived, which has resulted in higher returns. Without these waivers, the returns would have been lower. Voluntary waivers may be applied or discontinued at any time without notice.

For each fund with at least a three-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating™ based on a Morningstar risk-adjusted return measure that accounts for variations in a fund's monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five- and ten-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics.
