CULLEN FUNDS TRUST 485BPOS false 0001109957 2011-12-31 2012-10-26 2012-10-29 2012-10-29 Cullen High Dividend Equity Fund Investment Objective The Cullen High Dividend Equity Fund (the “High Dividend Fund”) seeks long-term capital appreciation and current income. Capital appreciation is a primary objective and current income is a secondary objective. Principal Risks Like all investments, investing in the High Dividend Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest. General Stock Risks. The High Dividend Fund’s major risks are those of investing in the stock market, which can mean that the Fund may experience sudden, unpredictable declines in value, as well as periods of poor performance. Periods of poor performance and declines in value of the High Dividend Fund’s underlying equity investments can be caused, and also be further prolonged, by many circumstances that can confront the global economy such as declining consumer and business confidence, malfunctioning credit markets, increased unemployment, reduced levels of capital expenditures, fluctuating commodity prices, bankruptcies, and other circumstances, all of which can individually and collectively have direct effects on the valuation and/or earnings power of the companies in which the Fund invests. Stock markets worldwide have experienced significant volatility in recent periods as a result of market participants reacting to economic data and market indicators that have contradicted previous assumptions and estimates. At times, these reactions have created scenarios where investors and traders have redeemed their investments/holdings en masse thereby creating additional and often significant downward price pressure than might be experienced in less volatile periods. In the future, market participants’ views on the valuation and/or earnings power of a company and the overall state of the economy can cause similar significant short-term and long-term volatility in the value of the High Dividend Fund’s shares. As a result, you could lose money investing in the High Dividend Fund. Medium-Capitalization Companies Risk. The High Dividend Fund may invest in the stocks of medium-capitalization companies. Medium-capitalization companies often have narrower markets and limited managerial and financial resources compared to those of larger, more established companies. As a result, their performance can be more volatile and they face greater risk of business reversals, which could increase the volatility of the High Dividend Fund’s portfolio. Value Style Investing Risk. Different types of equity investment strategies tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, and the performance resulting from the High Dividend Fund’s “value” investment style may sometimes be lower than that of equity funds following other styles of investment. Foreign Securities Risk. Foreign investments involve additional risks, which include currency exchange-rate fluctuations, political and economic instability, differences in financial reporting standards, and less-strict regulation of securities markets. More specific risks include: <ul> <li> future political and economic developments, </li> <li> the position of foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income payable on the securities, </li> <li> the possible establishment of exchange controls, </li> <li> the possible seizure or nationalization of foreign investments, and </li> <li> the adoption of other foreign governmental restrictions which might adversely affect the payment of amounts due with respect to such securities. </li> </ul> You may lose money by investing in the High Dividend Fund if any of the following occur: <ul> <li> foreign stock markets decline in value, </li> <li> the High Dividend Fund has difficulty selling smaller capitalization or emerging market stocks during a market due to lower liquidity, </li> <li> the value of a foreign currency declines relative to the U.S. dollar, or </li> <li> political, social or economic instability in a foreign country causes the value of the High Dividend Fund’s investments to decline. </li> </ul> All of the risks of investing in foreign securities are heightened by investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets have been more volatile than the markets of developed countries with more mature economies. ADRs are subject to the risks of foreign investments and may not always track the price of the underlying foreign security. Even when denominated in U.S. currency, the depositary receipts are subject to currency risk if the underlying security is denominated in a foreign currency. There can be no assurance that the price of the depositary receipt will always track the price of the underlying foreign security. Options or Covered Call Writing. The market price of the call will, in most instances, move in conjunction with the price of the underlying equity security. However, if the security rises in value and the call is exercised, the High Dividend Fund may not participate fully in the market appreciation of the security, which may negatively affect your investment return. Market Disruptions Risk; Sovereign Debt Crises Risks. Beginning in 2008 and continuing through much of 2009 and 2010, the global financial markets underwent pervasive and fundamental disruptions, resulting in substantial declines in valuation and liquidity in the global capital markets.  This global market turmoil, combined with a global reduction in the availability of credit, has led to an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies and contributed to a lack of consumer confidence, increased market volatility and reduction of business activity generally.  The resulting economic pressure on consumers and lack of confidence in the financial markets also adversely affected the equity markets. Consumer and business confidence remains fragile and subject to possible reversal for a variety of reasons, including high and growing debt levels by many consumers, business institutions and governments in the United States, certain countries in Europe and elsewhere around the world, and continued weakness in global job markets.  The securities of the United States, as well as several countries across Europe and Asia, have recently been, or are at risk of being, downgraded, and sovereign debt crises have persisted in certain countries in those regions.  These events and circumstances could result in further market disruptions that could adversely affect financial markets on a global basis. Government Intervention Risk.  The global financial markets have in the past few years gone through pervasive and fundamental disruptions which have led to extensive and unprecedented governmental intervention.  Such intervention has in certain cases been implemented on an “emergency” basis, suddenly and substantially eliminating market participants’ ability to continue to implement certain strategies or manage the risk of their outstanding positions.  In addition, these interventions have typically been unclear in scope and application, resulting in confusion and uncertainty which in itself has been materially detrimental to the efficient functioning of the markets as well as previously successful investment strategies. In response to the recent financial crises, the Obama Administration and the U.S. Congress proposed sweeping reform of the U.S. financial regulatory system. After over a year of debate, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) became law in July 2010. Because many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act require rulemaking by the applicable regulators before becoming fully effective and the Dodd-Frank Act mandates multiple agency reports and studies (which could result in additional legislative or regulatory action), it is difficult to predict the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on the Fund, the Adviser and the markets in which they trade and invest. The Dodd-Frank Act could result in certain investment strategies in which the Fund engages or may have otherwise engaged becoming non-viable or non-economic to implement. Like all investments, investing in the High Dividend Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest. Performance Information The following performance information indicates some of the risks of investing in the shares of the High Dividend Fund by showing the variability of the Retail Class’s returns (the class with the longest period of annual returns). The bar chart shows the total return of the High Dividend Fund by showing the changes in the Fund’s performance from year to year (on a calendar year basis). The table shows the High Dividend Fund's average annual total return over time compared with a broad-based market index. Both the bar chart and table assume that all dividends and distributions are reinvested in the High Dividend Fund. Remember, the High Dividend Fund’s past performance, before and after taxes, is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Prior to October 7, 2004, the shares of the High Dividend Fund had no specific class designation. As of that date, all of the then outstanding shares were redesignated as Retail Class shares.

Expense Example This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the High Dividend Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the High Dividend Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes your investment has a 5% return each year and that the High Dividend Fund’s operating expenses remain the same.

Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment): Principal Investment Strategies The High Dividend Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in dividend paying common stocks of medium- and large-capitalization companies. As a point of comparison, a high dividend common stock that the High Dividend Fund would invest in would generally have a dividend yield greater than the average dividend yield of the equity securities in the S&P 500® Index. The High Dividend Fund invests roughly similar amounts of its assets in each stock in the portfolio at the time of original purchase, although the portfolio is not systematically rebalanced. This approach avoids the overweighting of any individual security being purchased. The Adviser may sell portfolio stocks when they are no longer attractive based on their growth potential, dividend yield or price. As part of its strategy, the High Dividend Fund, in order to generate additional income, will selectively write covered call options when it is deemed to be in the Fund’s best interest. A call option is a short-term contract entitling the purchaser, in return for a premium paid, the right to buy the underlying equity security at a specified price upon exercise of the option at any time prior to its expiration. Writing a covered call option allows the High Dividend Fund to receive a premium. A call option gives the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy the underlying equity stock from the writer of the option at a given price during a specific period. The High Dividend Fund may invest up to 30% of its assets in foreign securities. These investments are generally made in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), which trade on U.S. exchanges. ADRs may be purchased through “sponsored” or “unsponsored” facilities. A sponsored facility is established jointly by the issuer of the underlying security and a depositary, whereas a depositary may establish an unsponsored facility without participation by the issuer of the depositary security. Holders of unsponsored depositary receipts generally bear all the costs of such facilities and the depositary of an unsponsored facility frequently is under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications received from the issuer of the deposited security or to pass through voting rights to the holders of such receipts. The High Dividend Fund generally invests substantially all of its assets in common stocks and ADRs but can invest in other equity securities, which can include convertible debt, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that invest primarily in equity securities, warrants, rights, equity interests in real estate investment trusts (REITs), equity interests in master limited partnerships (MLPs), and preferred stocks. The Fund will not engage in derivatives except to the extent that the writing of covered call options is deemed to involve derivatives. Portfolio Turnover The High Dividend Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (“portfolio turnover”). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when High Dividend Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the High Dividend Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the High Dividend Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 2% of the average value of its portfolio. 0.02 Cullen International High Dividend Fund Investment Objective The Cullen International High Dividend Fund (the “International High Dividend Fund”) seeks current income and long-term capital appreciation. Current income is a primary objective and capital appreciation is a secondary objective. Principal Risks Like all investments, investing in the International High Dividend Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest. General Stock Risks. The International High Dividend Fund’s major risks are those of investing in the stock market, which can mean that the Fund may experience sudden, unpredictable declines in value, as well as periods of poor performance. Periods of poor performance and declines in value of the International High Dividend Fund’s underlying equity investments can be caused, and also be further prolonged, by many circumstances that can confront the global economy such as declining consumer and business confidence, malfunctioning credit markets, increased unemployment, reduced levels of capital expenditures, fluctuating commodity prices, bankruptcies, and other circumstances, all of which can individually and collectively have direct effects on the valuation and/or earnings power of the companies in which the Fund invests. Stock markets worldwide have experienced significant volatility in recent periods as a result of market participants reacting to economic data and market indicators that have contradicted previous assumptions and estimates. At times, these reactions have created scenarios where investors and traders have redeemed their investments/holdings en masse thereby creating additional and often significant downward price pressure than might be experienced in less volatile periods. In the future, market participants’ views on the valuation and/or earnings power of a company and the overall state of the economy can cause similar significant short-term and long-term volatility in the value of the International High Dividend Fund’s shares. As a result, you could lose money investing in the International High Dividend Fund. Medium-Capitalization Companies Risks. The International High Dividend Fund may invest in the stocks of medium-capitalization companies. Medium-capitalization companies often have narrower markets and limited managerial and financial resources compared to those of larger, more established companies. As a result, their performance can be more volatile and they face greater risk of business reversals, which could increase the volatility of the International High Dividend Fund’s portfolio. Value Style Investing Risks. Different types of equity investment strategies tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, and the performance resulting from the International High Dividend Fund’s “value” investment style may sometimes be lower than that of equity funds following other styles of investment. Foreign Securities Risks. Foreign investments involve additional risks, which include currency exchange-rate fluctuations, political and economic instability, differences in financial reporting standards, and less-strict regulation of securities markets. More specific risks include: <ul> <li> future political and economic developments, </li> <li> the position of foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income payable on the securities, </li> <li> the possible establishment of exchange controls, </li> <li> the possible seizure or nationalization of foreign investments, and </li> <li> the adoption of other foreign governmental restrictions which might adversely affect the payment of amounts due with respect to such securities. </li> </ul> You may lose money by investing in the International High Dividend Fund if any of the following occur: <ul> <li> foreign stock markets decline in value, </li> <li> the International High Dividend Fund has difficulty selling smaller capitalization or emerging market stocks during a market due to lower liquidity, </li> <li> the value of a foreign currency declines relative to the U.S. dollar, or </li> <li> political, social or economic instability in a foreign country causes the value of the International High Dividend Fund’s investments to decline. </li> </ul> All of the risks of investing in foreign securities are heightened by investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets have been more volatile than the markets of developed countries with more mature economies. ADRs are subject to the risks of foreign investments and may not always track the price of the underlying foreign security. Even when denominated in U.S. currency, the depositary receipts are subject to currency risk if the underlying security is denominated in a foreign currency. There can be no assurance that the price of the depositary receipt will always track the price of the underlying foreign security. Market Disruptions Risk; Sovereign Debt Crises Risks. Beginning in 2008 and continuing through much of 2009 and 2010, the global financial markets underwent pervasive and fundamental disruptions, resulting in substantial declines in valuation and liquidity in the global capital markets.  This global market turmoil, combined with a global reduction in the availability of credit, has led to an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies and contributed to a lack of consumer confidence, increased market volatility and reduction of business activity generally.  The resulting economic pressure on consumers and lack of confidence in the financial markets also adversely affected the equity markets. Consumer and business confidence remains fragile and subject to possible reversal for a variety of reasons, including high and growing debt levels by many consumers, business institutions and governments in the United States, certain countries in Europe and elsewhere around the world, and continued weakness in global job markets.  The securities of the United States, as well as several countries across Europe and Asia, have recently been, or are at risk of being, downgraded, and sovereign debt crises have persisted in certain countries in those regions.  These events and circumstances could result in further market disruptions that could adversely affect financial markets on a global basis. Government Intervention Risk.  The global financial markets have in the past few years gone through pervasive and fundamental disruptions which have led to extensive and unprecedented governmental intervention.  Such intervention has in certain cases been implemented on an “emergency” basis, suddenly and substantially eliminating market participants’ ability to continue to implement certain strategies or manage the risk of their outstanding positions.  In addition, these interventions have typically been unclear in scope and application, resulting in confusion and uncertainty which in itself has been materially detrimental to the efficient functioning of the markets as well as previously successful investment strategies. In response to the recent financial crises, the Obama Administration and the U.S. Congress proposed sweeping reform of the U.S. financial regulatory system. After over a year of debate, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) became law in July 2010. Because many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act require rulemaking by the applicable regulators before becoming fully effective and the Dodd-Frank Act mandates multiple agency reports and studies (which could result in additional legislative or regulatory action), it is difficult to predict the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on the Fund, the Adviser and the markets in which they trade and invest. The Dodd-Frank Act could result in certain investment strategies in which the Fund engages or may have otherwise engaged becoming non-viable or non-economic to implement. Like all investments, investing in the International High Dividend Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest. Performance Information The following performance information indicates some of the risks of investing in the shares of the International High Dividend Fund by showing the variability of the Retail Class’s returns (the class with the longest period of annual returns).

Expense Example This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the International High Dividend Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the International High Dividend Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes your investment has a 5% return each year and that the International High Dividend Fund’s operating expenses remain the same.

Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment): Principal Investment Strategies The International High Dividend Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in high dividend paying common stocks of medium- and large-capitalization companies headquartered outside the United States and in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). ADRs are depositary receipts for foreign securities denominated in U.S. dollars and traded on U.S. securities markets or available through a U.S. broker or dealer. As a point of comparison, a high dividend paying common stock that the International High Dividend Fund would invest in would generally have a dividend yield greater than the average dividend yield of the equity securities in the MSCI EAFE Stock Index. The International High Dividend Fund intends to diversify its investments across different countries, but the percentage of the International High Dividend Fund’s assets invested in particular countries or regions will change from time to time based on the Adviser’s judgment. As of September 30, 2012, the International High Dividend Fund was invested in approximately 18 different countries. The International High Dividend Fund intends to invest in the securities of companies located in developed countries and, to a lesser extent, those located in emerging markets. The International High Dividend Fund may consider investments in companies in any of the world’s developed stock markets, such as the United Kingdom and other stock markets in the European Union. The International High Dividend Fund also may consider investments in developed and emerging stock markets in the Far East, such as Hong Kong, China, Singapore, Korea, Taiwan, Malaysia and Thailand. Other developed and emerging stock markets such as Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Canada and Mexico also may be considered. The International High Dividend Fund generally invests substantially all of its assets in common stocks and ADRs but can invest in other equity securities, which can include convertible debt, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that invest primarily in equity securities, warrants, rights, equity interests in real estate investment trusts (REITs), equity interests in master limited partnerships (MLPs), and preferred stocks. The International High Dividend Fund invests roughly similar amounts of its assets in each position in the portfolio at the time of original purchase, although the portfolio is not systematically rebalanced. This approach avoids the overweighting of any individual security being purchased. The Adviser may sell portfolio stocks when they are no longer attractive based on their growth potential, dividend yield or price. The Fund will not engage in derivatives except to the extent that the writing of covered call options is deemed to involve derivatives. Portfolio Turnover The International High Dividend Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (“portfolio turnover”). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when International High Dividend Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the International High Dividend Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the International High Dividend Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 36% of the average value of its portfolio. 0.36 Cullen Small Cap Value Fund Investment Objective The Cullen Small Cap Value Fund (the “Small Cap Value Fund”) seeks long-term capital appreciation. Principal Risks Like all investments, investing in the Small Cap Value Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest. General Stock Risks. The Small Cap Value Fund’s major risks are those of investing in the stock market, which can mean the Fund may experience sudden, unpredictable declines in value, as well as periods of poor performance. Periods of poor performance and declines in value of the Small Cap Value Fund’s underlying equity investments can be caused, and also be further prolonged, by many circumstances that can confront the global economy such as declining consumer and business confidence, malfunctioning credit markets, increased unemployment, reduced levels of capital expenditures, fluctuating commodity prices, bankruptcies, and other circumstances, all of which can individually and collectively have direct effects on the valuation and/or earnings power of the companies in which the Fund invests.

As a result, you could lose money investing in the Small Cap Value Fund. Small-Capitalization Companies Risks. The Small Cap Value Fund invests in the stocks of small-capitalization companies. Small-capitalization companies often have narrower markets and limited managerial and financial resources compared to those of larger, more established companies. As a result, their performance can be more volatile, and they face greater risk of business reversals, which could increase the volatility of the Small Cap Value Fund’s portfolio. Further, due to thin trading in some such companies, an investment may be more illiquid (i.e. harder to sell) than that of larger capitalization stocks. Value Style Investing Risks. Different types of equity investment strategies tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, and the performance resulting from the Small Cap Value Fund’s “value” investment style may sometimes be lower than that of other types of equity funds.

Expense Example This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Small Cap Value Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. This example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Small Cap Value Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods.

Annual Fund Operating Expenses (expenses that you pay each year as a percentage of the value of your investment): The Small Cap Value Fund's Transfer Agent charges a $15 wire redemption fee to shareholders who elect to redeem by wire transfer. The Total Annual Operating Expenses in the table above may not correlate to the ratio of expenses to average net assets as reported in the "Financial Highlights" section of the Prospectus, which reflects the operating expenses of the Small Cap Value Fund and does not include Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses. Other expenses for Class R1 shares and Class R2 shares are estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. Other expenses for Class R1 shares and Class R2 shares are estimated amounts for the current fiscal year. Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment): Principal Investment Strategies The Small Cap Value Fund will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in small-capitalization companies, which the Fund defines as those companies with market capitalizations below $4 billion at the time of original purchase. The Adviser generally selects stocks of companies that have the following characteristics: <ul> <li> a below average price/earnings ratio as compared with the average price/earnings ratio of the equity securities in the Russell 2500 Value Stock Index; </li> <li> above average projected earnings growth as compared to the average projected earnings growth the equity securities in the Russell 2500 Value Stock Index. </li> </ul> The Small Cap Value Fund generally invests substantially all of its assets in common stocks and other equity securities, which can include convertible debt, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that invest primarily in equity securities, depositary receipts, warrants, rights, equity interests in real estate investment trusts (REITs), master limited partnerships (MLPs), and preferred stocks. The Small Cap Value Fund invests roughly similar amounts of its assets in each security in the portfolio at the time of original purchase, although the portfolio is not systematically rebalanced. This approach avoids the overweighting of any individual security being purchased. The Adviser may sell portfolio stocks when they are no longer attractive based on their price or earnings growth potential. The Small Cap Value Fund may invest up to 30% of its assets in securities of companies headquartered outside the United States. These investments will be made in securities traded on an exchanges outside the United States and/or American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), which are depositary receipts for foreign securities denominated in U.S. dollars and traded on U.S. securities markets or available through a U.S. broker or dealer. ADRs may be purchased through “sponsored” or “unsponsored” facilities. A sponsored facility is established jointly by the issuer of the underlying security and a depositary, whereas a depositary may establish an unsponsored facility without participation by the issuer of the depositary security. Holders of unsponsored depositary receipts generally bear all the costs of such facilities and the depositary of an unsponsored facility frequently is under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications received from the issuer of the deposited security or to pass through voting rights to the holders of such receipts. The Small Cap Value Fund intends to diversify its investments in securities of companies headquartered outside the United States across different countries, but the percentage of Fund assets invested in particular countries or regions will change from time to time based on the Adviser’s judgment. The Small Cap Value Fund intends to invest in the securities of companies located in developed countries and, to a lesser extent, those located in emerging markets, and the Fund may consider investments in companies in any of the world’s developed or emerging stock markets. The Fund will not engage in derivatives except to the extent that the writing of covered call options is deemed to involve derivatives. Portfolio Turnover The Small Cap Value Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (“portfolio turnover”). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Small Cap Value Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Small Cap Value Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Small Cap Value Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 25% of the average value of its portfolio. 0.25 Cullen Value Fund Investment Objective The Cullen Value Fund (the “Value Fund”) seeks long-term capital appreciation and current income. Capital appreciation is a primary objective and current income is a secondary objective. Principal Risks Like all investments, investing in the Value Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest. General Stock Risks. The Fund may experience sudden, unpredictable declines in value, as well as periods of poor performance through its investments in the stock market. Periods of poor performance and declines in value of the Value Fund’s underlying equity investments can be caused, and also be further prolonged, by other factors confronting the global economy such as declining consumer and business confidence, malfunctioning credit markets, increased unemployment, reduced levels of capital expenditures, fluctuating commodity prices, bankruptcies, and other circumstances, all of which can individually and collectively have direct effects on the valuation and/or earnings power of the companies in which the Fund invests. Stock markets worldwide have experienced significant volatility in recent periods as a result of market participants reacting to economic data and market indicators that have contradicted previous assumptions and estimates. At times, these reactions have created scenarios where investors and traders have redeemed their investments/holdings en masse thereby creating additional and often significant downward price pressure than might be experienced in less volatile periods. Market participants’ views on the valuation and/or earnings power of a company and the overall state of the economy can cause similar significant short-term and long-term volatility in the value of the Value Fund’s shares. As a result, you could lose money investing in the Value Fund. Small- and Medium-Capitalization Companies Risk. The Value Fund may invest in the stocks of small- and medium-capitalization companies. Small- and medium-capitalization companies often have narrower markets and limited managerial and financial resources compared to those of larger, more established companies. As a result, their performance can be more volatile and they face greater risk of business reversals, which could increase the volatility of the Value Fund’s portfolio. Value Style Investing Risk. Different types of equity investment strategies tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, and the performance resulting from the Value Fund’s “value” investment style may sometimes be lower than that of equity funds following other styles of investment. Foreign Securities Risk. Foreign investments involve additional risks, which include currency exchange-rate fluctuations, political and economic instability, differences in financial reporting standards, and less-strict regulation of securities markets. More specific risks include: <ul> <li> future political and economic developments, </li> <li> the position of foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income payable on the securities, </li> <li> the possible establishment of exchange controls, </li> <li> the possible seizure or nationalization of foreign investments, and </li> <li> the adoption of other foreign governmental restrictions which might adversely affect the payment of amounts due with respect to such securities. </li> </ul> You may lose money by investing in the Value Fund if any of the following occur: <ul> <li> foreign stock markets decline in value, </li> <li> the Value Fund has difficulty selling smaller capitalization or emerging market stocks during a market due to lower liquidity, </li> <li> the value of a foreign currency declines relative to the U.S. dollar, or </li> <li> political, social or economic instability in a foreign country causes the value of the Value Fund’s investments to decline. </li> </ul> All of the risks of investing in foreign securities are heightened by investing in emerging markets. Emerging markets have been more volatile than the markets of developed countries with more mature economies. ADRs are subject to the risks of foreign investments and may not always track the price of the underlying foreign security. Even when denominated in U.S. currency, the depositary receipts are subject to currency risk if the underlying security is denominated in a foreign currency. There can be no assurance that the price of the depositary receipt will always track the price of the underlying foreign security. Market Disruptions Risk; Sovereign Debt Crises Risks. Beginning in 2008 and continuing through much of 2009 and 2010, the global financial markets underwent pervasive and fundamental disruptions, resulting in substantial declines in valuation and liquidity in the global capital markets.  This global market turmoil, combined with a global reduction in the availability of credit, has led to an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies and contributed to a lack of consumer confidence, increased market volatility and reduction of business activity generally.  The resulting economic pressure on consumers and lack of confidence in the financial markets also adversely affected the equity markets. Consumer and business confidence remains fragile and subject to possible reversal for a variety of reasons, including high and growing debt levels by many consumers, business institutions and governments in the United States, certain countries in Europe and elsewhere around the world, and continued weakness in global job markets.  The securities of the United States, as well as several countries across Europe and Asia, have recently been, or are at risk of being, downgraded, and sovereign debt crises have persisted in certain countries in those regions.  These events and circumstances could result in further market disruptions that could adversely affect financial markets on a global basis. Government Intervention Risk.  The global financial markets have in the past few years gone through pervasive and fundamental disruptions which have led to extensive and unprecedented governmental intervention.  Such intervention has in certain cases been implemented on an “emergency” basis, suddenly and substantially eliminating market participants’ ability to continue to implement certain strategies or manage the risk of their outstanding positions.  In addition, these interventions have typically been unclear in scope and application, resulting in confusion and uncertainty which in itself has been materially detrimental to the efficient functioning of the markets as well as previously successful investment strategies. In response to the recent financial crises, the Obama Administration and the U.S. Congress proposed sweeping reform of the U.S. financial regulatory system. After over a year of debate, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) became law in July 2010. Because many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act require rulemaking by the applicable regulators before becoming fully effective and the Dodd-Frank Act mandates multiple agency reports and studies (which could result in additional legislative or regulatory action), it is difficult to predict the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on the Fund, the Adviser and the markets in which they trade and invest. The Dodd-Frank Act could result in certain investment strategies in which the Fund engages or may have otherwise engaged becoming non-viable or non-economic to implement. Like all investments, investing in the Value Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest.

The Predecessor Fund had virtually identical investment objectives, strategies and policies through July 31, 2012 as the Value Fund. The individuals who had primary responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Predecessor Fund until July 31, 2012 have primary responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Value Fund.

The following performance information indicates some of the risks of investing in the shares of the Value Fund by showing the variability of the Predecessor Fund’s Class A shares (the class which, together with its predecessor share class, has the longest period of annual returns). The performance information reflects the deduction of applicable sales loads for the Predecessor Fund’s Class A shares. The Value Fund’s Retail Class and Class I have no such sales loads.

The Value Fund commenced operations on September 4, 2012, accordingly, no portfolio turnover information is available. Cullen Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund Investment Objective The Cullen Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund (the “Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund”) seeks current income and long-term capital appreciation. Capital appreciation is a primary objective and current income is a secondary objective. Principal Risks Like all investments, investing in the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest. General Stock Risks. The Fund may experience sudden, unpredictable declines in value, as well as periods of poor performance through its investment in the stock market. Periods of poor performance and declines in value of the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund’s underlying equity investments can be caused, and also be further prolonged by other factors confronting the global economy such as declining consumer and business confidence, malfunctioning credit markets, increased unemployment, reduced levels of capital expenditures, fluctuating commodity prices, bankruptcies, and other circumstances, all of which can individually and collectively have direct effects on the valuation and/or earnings power of the companies in which the Fund invests.

At times, these reactions have created scenarios where investors and traders have redeemed their investments/holdings en masse thereby creating additional and often significant downward price pressure than might be experienced in less volatile periods. Market participants’ views on the valuation and/or earnings power of a company and the overall state of the economy can cause similar significant short-term and long-term volatility in the value of the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund’s shares. As a result, you could lose money investing in the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund. Foreign Securities Risks. Foreign investments involve additional risks, which include currency exchange-rate fluctuations, political and economic instability, differences in financial reporting standards, and less-strict regulation of securities markets. More specific risks include: <ul> <li> future political and economic developments, </li> <li> the position of foreign withholding taxes on dividend and interest income payable on the securities, </li> <li> the possible establishment of exchange controls, </li> <li> the possible seizure or nationalization of foreign investments, and </li> <li> the adoption of other foreign governmental restrictions which might adversely affect the payment of amounts due with respect to such securities. </li> </ul> You may lose money by investing in the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund if any of the following occur: <ul> <li> foreign stock markets decline in value, </li> <li> the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund has difficulty selling smaller capitalization or emerging market stocks during a market due to lower liquidity, </li> <li> the value of a foreign currency declines relative to the U.S. dollar, or </li> <li> political, social or economic instability in a foreign country causes the value of the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund’s investments to decline. </li> </ul> Risk of Investing in Emerging Market Countries. The securities of issuers located in emerging markets tend to be more volatile and less liquid than securities of issuers located in more mature economies, and emerging markets generally have less diverse and less mature economic structures and less stable political systems than those of developed countries. The securities of issuers located or doing substantial business in emerging markets are often subject to rapid and large changes in price and may be particularly sensitive to certain economic changes. There may be less government supervision and regulation of foreign securities and currency markets, trading systems and brokers in certain foreign markets as compared to the United States, which may increase the Fund’s regulatory and compliance burden and/or decrease the Fund’s investors rights and protections. Information about securities may not be as readily available as in the United States because foreign issuers may not be subject to the same disclosure, accounting and financial reporting standards and practices as U.S. issuers. Brokerage commissions, withholding taxes, custodial fees, and other fees generally are higher in foreign markets. The policies and procedures followed by foreign stock exchanges, currency markets, trading systems and brokers may differ from those applicable in the United States, with possibly negative consequences to the Fund. Differences in the legal system between foreign governments and the United States may make it difficult for the Fund to vote proxies, exercise shareholder rights, and pursue legal remedies with respect to its foreign investments. In the past, governments within the emerging markets have become overly reliant on the international capital markets and other forms of foreign credit to finance public spending programs that cause large deficits. Often, interest payments on such government debt, representing a large percentage of total GDP, has become too burdensome for governments within emerging markets to meet. Some governments within emerging markets have been forced to seek a restructuring of their loan and/or bond obligations and have declared a temporary suspension of interest payments or have defaulted. These events have affected adversely the values of securities issued by governments within emerging markets and companies in emerging markets countries and have impacted negatively both the present cost of borrowing and their ability to borrow in the future. Small- and Medium-Capitalization Companies Risks. The Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund may invest in the stocks of small- and medium-capitalization companies. Small- and medium-capitalization companies often have greater price volatility, less liquidity, narrower markets and limited managerial and financial resources compared to those of larger, more established companies. As a result, their performance can be more volatile and they face greater risk of business reversals, which could increase the volatility of the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund’s portfolio. Value Style Investing Risks. Different types of equity investment strategies tend to shift in and out of favor depending on market and economic conditions, and the performance resulting from the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund’s “value” investment style may sometimes be lower than that of equity funds following other styles of investment. Foreign Currency Risk. Investments in foreign currencies are subject to the risk that those currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar, which will reduce the value of investments denominated in those currencies held by the Fund. Market Disruptions Risk; Sovereign Debt Crises Risks. Beginning in 2008 and continuing through much of 2009 and 2010, the global financial markets underwent pervasive and fundamental disruptions, resulting in substantial declines in valuation and liquidity in the global capital markets.  This global market turmoil, combined with a global reduction in the availability of credit, has led to an increased level of commercial and consumer delinquencies and contributed to a lack of consumer confidence, increased market volatility and reduction of business activity generally.  The resulting economic pressure on consumers and lack of confidence in the financial markets also adversely affected the equity markets. Consumer and business confidence remains fragile and subject to possible reversal for a variety of reasons, including high and growing debt levels by many consumers, business institutions and governments in the United States, certain countries in Europe and elsewhere around the world, and continued weakness in global job markets.  The securities of the United States, as well as several countries across Europe and Asia, have recently been, or are at risk of being, downgraded, and sovereign debt crises have persisted in certain countries in those regions.  These events and circumstances could result in further market disruptions that could adversely affect financial markets on a global basis. Government Intervention Risk.  The global financial markets have in the past few years gone through pervasive and fundamental disruptions which have led to extensive and unprecedented governmental intervention.  Such intervention has in certain cases been implemented on an “emergency” basis, suddenly and substantially eliminating market participants’ ability to continue to implement certain strategies or manage the risk of their outstanding positions.  In addition, these interventions have typically been unclear in scope and application, resulting in confusion and uncertainty which in itself has been materially detrimental to the efficient functioning of the markets as well as previously successful investment strategies. In response to the recent financial crises, the Obama Administration and the U.S. Congress proposed sweeping reform of the U.S. financial regulatory system. After over a year of debate, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) became law in July 2010. Because many provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act require rulemaking by the applicable regulators before becoming fully effective and the Dodd-Frank Act mandates multiple agency reports and studies (which could result in additional legislative or regulatory action), it is difficult to predict the impact of the Dodd-Frank Act on the Fund, the Adviser and the markets in which they trade and invest. The Dodd-Frank Act could result in certain investment strategies in which the Fund engages or may have otherwise engaged becoming non-viable or non-economic to implement. Like all investments, investing in the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund involves risks, including the risk that you may lose part or all of the money you invest.

Shareholder Fees (fees paid directly from your investment): Principal Investment Strategies The Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in high-dividend paying securities of companies across all capitalizations that are organized in, maintain at least 50% of their assets in, or derive at least 50% of their revenues from, emerging market countries. As a point of comparison, a high dividend paying common stock that the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund would invest in would generally have a dividend yield greater than the average dividend yield of the equity securities in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. An emerging market country is any country that has been determined by an international organization, such as the World Bank, to have a relatively low to middle economy. In selecting stocks, the Emerging Market High Dividend Fund’s portfolio managers select companies that have growth potential, focusing on companies across all capitalizations. The Fund’s holdings may include issues denominated in currencies of emerging countries, investment companies (like country funds) which invest in emerging countries, American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”) and other similar instruments (ADRs, EDRs and GDRs are hereinafter collectively referred to as “depositary receipts”), and similar types of investments representing emerging markets securities. The Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund may use derivative instruments, such as structured notes, futures, options and swap agreements, to gain or hedge exposure. The Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund may invest in securities issued by other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), and may also invest in money market funds. The Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund intends to diversify its investments across different countries, but the percentage of the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund’s assets invested in particular countries or regions will change from time to time based on the Adviser’s judgment. However, the Fund will not have more than 30% of its total assets invested as at the time of purchase in securities of any one country. The Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund generally invests substantially all of its assets in common stocks and depositary receipts but can invest in other equity securities, which can include convertible debt, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that invest primarily in equity securities, warrants, rights, equity interests in real estate investment trusts (REITs), equity interests in master limited partnerships (MLPs), and preferred stocks. The Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund invests roughly the same amount of its assets in each position in the portfolio at the time of original purchase, although the portfolio is not systematically rebalanced. This approach avoids the overweighting of any individual security being purchased. The Adviser may sell portfolio stocks when they are no longer attractive based on their growth potential, dividend yield or price. The Fund will not engage in derivatives except to the extent that the writing of covered call options is deemed to involve derivatives. Portfolio Turnover The Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (“portfolio turnover”). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Emerging Markets High Dividend Fund’s performance. The Emerging Markets Fund commenced operations in September 4, 2012, accordingly, no portfolio turnover information is available.
