The Fund may also invest up to 15% of its Net Assets in initial public offerings (IPOs). The Fund may invest in real estate investment trusts (REITs). Allocation of the Funds investments is determined by the Investment Advisers assessment of a companys upside potential and downside risk, how attractive it appears relative to other holdings, and how the addition will impact sector and industry weightings. The largest weightings in the Funds portfolio relative to the benchmark of the Fund are given to companies the Investment Adviser believes have the most upside return potential relative to their contribution to overall portfolio risk. The Investment Adviser employs a fundamental investment process that may integrate environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors alongside traditional fundamental factors. No one factor or consideration is determinative in the stock selection process. The Investment Adviser measures the Funds performance against the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) India IMI Index (Net, USD, Unhedged). THE FUND IS NON-DIVERSIFIED UNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940, AS AMENDED (THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT), AND MAY INVEST A LARGER PERCENTAGE OF ITS ASSETS IN FEWER ISSUERS THAN DIVERSIFIED FUNDS.

The Fund is not an index fund and does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index.
