Our Portfolio Management Team Makes Investment Decisions for You

Investing in the greater China region’s markets can be difficult because information on companies is hard to find and available only to the most sophisticated investors. Our portfolio managment team understands the culture and language and has contacts in the greater China region’s capital markets to help find the best investments for the fund. They also have access to a universe of information about these markets.

The Fund Focuses on China while Seeking Outstanding Opportunities Throughout the China Region

At least 80% of the fund’s assets will be invested in equity securities issued by China region companies. These companies must fit at least one of these criteria:

1. Be organized under the laws of countries within the China region; or

2. Have at least 50% of their assets in one or more China region countries; or

3. Derive at least 50% of their gross revenues or profits from providing goods or services to or from one or more China region countries.

Your Investment is Diversified to Reduce Risk

Broadening a portfolio into international markets increases the opportunity for growth of capital. Also, investing worldwide reduces the exposure of an investor’s portfolio to a downturn in a single country’s market.

Few individual investors have the financial assets to build a fully diversified portfolio on their own. When you invest in a mutual fund, your investment is spread across many companies. This diversification minimizes the impact of any one company not performing well.

Investing is Easy and Affordable

We believe everyone should have the opportunity to invest. Our low minimum initial investment of $5,000 makes it easy and affordable to build a position in the China Region Opportunity Fund. If you use our ABC Investment Plan,® you can get started with as little as $100 when you make monthly automatic investments of only $30 or more. Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) have no minimum investment requirement, so it is easy for you to open an account for yourself, your children or grandchildren. All new IRA investments of $10,000 or more will receive a lifetime waiver of custodian fees.

You Save Money with a No-load Investment

Investing in foreign stocks on your own can be very expensive. As an institutional investor, the fund can negotiate lower commissions on its portfolio transactions. Because our funds are 100% no load, you never pay comissions or sales charges. Please read the prospectus, which includes charges and ongoing expenses, carefully before investing.
