Industry Concentration. From time to time, market fluctuations in the value of the Fund’s investments, combined with the Fund’s non-diversified portfolio, may result in the Fund being concentrated in the securities of a single issuer or a small number of issuers, including in a particular industry. As a result, the Fund will be particularly exposed to the risks of that company or industry relative to the risk exposure of investment companies holding a diversified portfolio of securities or those that seek to maintain near-index weightings in their portfolio securities. Accordingly, in those cases, the Fund will be disproportionately exposed to the market conditions, interest rates, and economic, regulatory, or financial developments that significantly affect that company or industry. For example, due to the size of the Fund’s investment in SpaceX, which represents about 18% of its net assets as of the date of this prospectus, the Fund will be adversely impacted by developments affecting the aerospace & defense industries, as well as governmental environmental regulations. (Please see “Single or Related Issuers” in the “Principal Risks of Investing in the Fund” section.)

General Stock Market. Fund losses may be incurred due to declines in one or more markets in which Fund investments are made. These declines may be the result of, among other things, political, regulatory, market, economic or social developments affecting the relevant market(s). In addition, turbulence as has recently been experienced, caused, among other reasons, by increased inflation, tightening monetary policy and interest rate increases by the US Federal Reserve or similar international bodies, and changes in U.S. trade policy. Reduced liquidity in financial markets may continue to negatively affect many issuers, which could have an adverse effect on your Fund investment. Events involving limited liquidity, defaults, non-performance or other adverse developments that affect one industry, such as the financial services industry, or concerns or rumors about any events of these kinds, have in the past and may in the future lead to market-wide liquidity problems, may spread to other industries, and could negatively affect the value and liquidity of the Fund’s investments. Global economies and financial markets are increasingly interconnected, and conditions and events in one country, region or financial market, such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the world-wide response to it, have and may continue to adversely impact issuers and markets worldwide. Increasingly strained relations between countries, including between the U.S. and traditional allies and/or adversaries, could adversely affect U.S. issuers as well as non-U.S. issuers that rely on the United States for trade. A fund’s securities may be negatively impacted by inflation (or expectations for inflation), interest rates, global demand for particular products/services or resources, supply chain disruptions, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, terrorism, war, military confrontations, changes in

trade regulations, elevated levels of government debt, internal unrest and discord, economic sanctions, regulatory events and governmental or quasi-governmental actions, among others. Ongoing armed conflicts between Russia and Ukraine in Europe and among Israel, Iran, Hamas and other militant groups in the Middle East, including the joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran in February 2026, present considerable market risks, the ultimate effects of which are not known but could profoundly affect global economies and markets. Raising the ceiling on U.S. government debt has become increasingly politicized. Any failure to increase the total amount that the U.S. government is authorized to borrow could lead to a default on U.S. government obligations, with unpredictable consequences for economies and markets in the U.S. and elsewhere.

Small-and Mid-Sized Companies. The Adviser believes there is more potential for capital appreciation in small-and mid-sized companies, but there also may be more risk. Securities of small-and mid-sized companies may not be well known to most investors, and the securities may be less actively traded than those of large businesses. The securities of small-and mid-sized companies may fluctuate in price more widely than the stock market generally, and they may be more difficult to sell during market downturns. Small-and mid-sized companies rely more on the skills of management and on their continued tenure. Investing in small-and mid-sized companies requires a long-term outlook and may require shareholders to assume more risk and to have more patience than investing in the securities of larger, more established companies.

Developing Countries. The Fund invests in developing countries, which include countries in the MSCI Emerging Markets (EM) Index, countries in the MSCI Frontier Markets (FM) Index and other countries determined by the Adviser to be developing

countries based on classifications made by the International Monetary Fund or on country characteristics similar to those of the countries in the EM and FM Indexes. Investments in developing countries are subject to all of the risks of non-U.S. investing generally, and have additional heightened risks due to a lack of established legal, political, business and social frameworks to support securities markets, including: delays in settling portfolio securities transactions; currency and capital controls; greater sensitivity to interest rate changes; pervasiveness of corruption and crime; currency exchange rate volatility; and inflation, deflation or currency devaluation. These risks are greater for countries in the FM Index.

Risks Associated with Investing in Chinese Companies through Variable Interest Entities. The Fund may obtain exposure to companies based or operated in China by investing through legal structures known as variable interest entities (“VIEs”). Instead of directly owning the equity securities of a Chinese company, a VIE enters into service and other contracts with the Chinese company. Although the VIE has no equity ownership of the Chinese company, the contractual arrangements permit the VIE to consolidate the Chinese company into its financial statements. VIE investments are subject to the risk that any breach of these contractual arrangements will be subject to Chinese law and jurisdiction, that Chinese law may be interpreted or change in a way that affects the enforceability of the VIE’s arrangements, or that contracts between the Chinese company and the VIE may otherwise not be enforceable under Chinese law.

Information Technology Sector. Companies in the information technology sector are subject to rapid changes in technology product cycles; rapid product obsolescence; government regulation; and increased competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from foreign competitors with lower production costs. Information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology tend to be more volatile than the overall market and also are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights. In addition, information technology companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel.

Single or Related Issuers. Single or related issuers risk is the possibility that factors specific to an issuer or issuers to which the Fund is exposed will affect the market prices of such issuer’s securities. The performance of those issuers may have a greater effect on the Fund’s performance compared to a fund that has a greater diversity of investments in multiple issuers. Thus, a fund with concentrated investments in certain single issuers is more likely to experience significant fluctuations in value, exposing the Fund to a greater risk of loss in any given period. The Fund currently has a significant investment in Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (“SpaceX”). As a result, the net asset value of the Fund will be materially impacted by the price of the issuer’s stock. Before investing in the Fund, investors should carefully consider publicly available information about SpaceX. As long as the Fund maintains a substantial investment in this issuer, the Fund’s performance will be significantly affected by the performance of the stock and a decline in the price of SpaceX stock could materially and adversely affect your investment in the Fund.
