Important Information
Investing in foreign securities, particularly those of
emerging markets, presents certain risks, such as currency
fluctuations, political and economic changes, and market risks.
Any fund that concentrates in a particular segment of the market
will generally be more volatile than a fund that invests more
broadly.
The shares of most closed-end funds, including the Funds, are
not continuously offered. Once issued, shares of closed-end
funds are bought and sold in the open market through a stock
exchange. Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a
discount to net asset value. The price of a fund’s shares is
determined by a number of factors, several of which are beyond the
control of the fund. Therefore, a fund cannot predict
whether its shares will trade at, below, or above net asset
value.
Investments in funds involve risk. Additional risks of the
Funds are associated with international investing, such as currency
fluctuations, political and economic changes, market risks,
government regulations and differences in liquidity, which may
increase the volatility of your investment. Foreign security
markets generally exhibit greater price volatility and are less
liquid than the US market. Additionally, the Funds focus
their investments in certain geographical regions, thereby
increasing their vulnerability to developments in that region and
potentially subjecting the Funds’ shares to greater price
volatility. Some funds have more risk than others.
These include funds, such as the Funds, that allow exposure to
or otherwise concentrate investments in certain sectors, geographic
regions, security types, market capitalization, or foreign
securities (e.g., political or economic instability, which can be
accentuated in emerging market countries).
The European Union, the United States and other countries
have imposed sanctions on Russia in response to Russian military
and other actions in recent years. These sanctions have
adversely affected Russian individuals, issuers and the Russian
economy. Russia, in turn, has imposed sanctions targeting
Western individuals, businesses and products. The various
sanctions have adversely affected, and may continue to adversely
affect, not only the Russian economy, but also the economies of
many countries in Europe, including countries in Central and
Eastern Europe. The continuation of current sanctions or the
imposition of additional sanctions may materially adversely affect
the value of the Funds’ portfolios.
Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these
securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer or
solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or
qualification under the laws of such state or jurisdiction.
