Dear Shareholders:

     The  enclosed  Information  Statement  details a recent  subadviser  change
relating to the series  listed  above  (each,  a "Fund," and  collectively,  the
"Funds") of Nationwide Mutual Funds (the "Trust").

     NorthPointe  Capital,  LLC  ("NorthPointe"),  the current subadviser to the
Funds,  was  previously an affiliate of Nationwide  Fund Advisors  ("NFA"),  the
Funds' investment adviser.  Effective October 1, 2007,  NorthPointe is no longer
affiliated  with NFA  ("Unaffiliated  NorthPointe").  As a result,  the Board of
Trustees of the Trust (the "Board") has approved,  with respect to the Funds,  a
new investment  subadvisory agreement with Unaffiliated  NorthPointe to serve as
subadviser  and manage the Funds,  terminating  and  replacing  the  subadvisory
agreement with previously affiliated NorthPointe ("Affiliated NorthPointe"). The
Trust has  received an  exemptive  order from the U.S.  Securities  and Exchange
Commission that allows certain subadviser changes to be made without shareholder
approval  (the  "Manager of  Managers  Order").  The  Manager of Managers  Order
instead requires that this Information Statement be sent to you.

     Upon the  recommendation  of NFA,  the  Board  has  appointed  Unaffiliated
NorthPointe as the subadviser of the Funds for which Affiliated  NorthPointe had
been subadviser. This recommendation was based on several factors, including:

o    Nationwide  Emerging Managers,  LLC, the  majority-owned  parent company of
     NorthPointe  and an affiliate of NFA, and  NorthPointe  Holdings,  LLC, the
     minority-owned  parent  company of  NorthPointe,  completed  a  transaction
     pursuant to which  Nationwide  Emerging  Managers,  LLC sold to NorthPointe
     Holdings,  LLC all of its ownership  interest in  NorthPointe  resulting in
     NorthPointe's status changing from affiliated to unaffiliated and causing a
     change of control which automatically  terminated the subadvisory agreement
     between Affiliated NorthPointe and the Funds;
o    the same  investment  strategies  that have been  employed for the Funds by
     Affiliated NorthPointe continue to be employed by Unaffiliated NorthPointe;
     and
o    the same  portfolio  managers  that have  managed  the  assets of the Funds
     continue to manage the assets under Unaffiliated NorthPointe.

Please read the enclosed Information Statement for additional information.

We look forward to continuing to serve you and the Funds in the future.

                                               Sincerely,


                                              Eric E. Miller
                                              Secretary, Nationwide Mutual Funds

                              INFORMATION STATEMENT

     The Board of  Trustees  (the  "Board")  of  Nationwide  Mutual  Funds  (the
"Trust") is furnishing this Information  Statement with respect to the series of
the Trust listed above (each, a "Fund," and together,  the "Funds"). All persons
who are entitled to give voting  instructions as a shareholder of the Funds will
receive this Information  Statement.  This Information Statement will be sent to
shareholders  on or about  December  [xx],  2007.  The  Trust  has  received  an
exemptive order (the "Manager of Managers  Order") from the U.S.  Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which permits Nationwide Fund Advisors ("NFA"),
the Funds'  investment  adviser,  to hire new subadvisers which are unaffiliated
with  NFA and to make  changes  to  existing  subadvisory  agreements  with  the
approval of the Board, but without  obtaining  shareholder  approval,  provided,
among other  things,  that each Fund sends to its  shareholders  an  information
statement   describing  any  new  subadviser  within  90  days  of  hiring  such
subadviser.

          WE ARE NOT ASKING YOU FOR A PROXY OR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS AND
         WE REQUEST THAT YOU NOT SEND US A PROXY OR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS.

INTRODUCTION

     The Trust, on behalf of the Funds, has entered into an Investment  Advisory
Agreement  with NFA.  Pursuant to the  Investment  Advisory  Agreement,  NFA may
select one or more  subadvisers  for the Funds and  supervises  the Funds' daily
business  affairs,  subject to the supervision  and direction of the Board.  NFA
selects  subadviser(s)  it believes  will  provide  the Funds with high  quality
investment management services consistent with the Funds' investment objectives.
NFA is responsible for the overall monitoring of the Funds' subadviser(s).

     NorthPointe  Capital,  LLC  ("NorthPointe"),  the current subadviser to the
Funds,  was  previously  an  affiliate  of  NFA.   Effective  October  1,  2007,
NorthPointe is no longer affiliated with NFA ("Unaffiliated NorthPointe").  As a
result,  the Board has approved,  with respect to the Funds,  a new  subadvisory
agreement  with  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe to serve as subadviser and manage the
Funds,  terminating and replacing the subadvisory  agreement with the previously
affiliated NorthPointe ("Affiliated NorthPointe"). The Manager of Managers Order
allows certain subadviser changes to be made without shareholder  approval.  The
Manager of Managers Order instead  requires that this  Information  Statement be
sent to you.

     Unaffiliated NorthPointe is located at 101 West Big Beaver Road, Suite 745,
Troy,  Michigan  48084.  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe  began  serving as the Funds'
subadviser on October 1, 2007,  following  action taken by the Board on June 13,
2007 to approve  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe as the subadviser with respect to the
Funds.  The  decision  by the  Board  to  replace  Affiliated  NorthPointe  with
Unaffiliated NorthPointe as subadviser,  as well as other important information,
is described in more detail below.

RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE SUBADVISER

     As part of NFA's duties to select and supervise  the Funds'  subadviser(s),
NFA is responsible for communicating performance expectations to, and evaluating
the  performance  of a  subadviser  and  recommending  to the Board  whether new
subadvisers  should be hired or whether a  subadviser's  contract with the Trust
should be renewed,  modified or terminated.  NFA  periodically  provides written
reports to the Board  describing  the results of its  evaluation  and monitoring
functions.

     Nationwide Emerging Managers,  LLC ("Nationwide  Emerging  Managers"),  the
majority-owned  parent  company of  NorthPointe  and an  affiliate  of NFA,  and
NorthPointe Holdings,  LLC ("NorthPointe  Holdings"),  the minority-owned parent
company of NorthPointe,  completed a transaction (the "Transaction") pursuant to
which  Nationwide  Emerging  Managers  sold to  NorthPointe  Holdings all of its
ownership interest in Affiliated NorthPointe. Upon completion of the Transaction
on October 1, 2007,  an  "assignment"  of Affiliated  NorthPointe's  subadvisory
agreement  with  the  Trust  occurred,  causing  the  subadvisory  agreement  to
terminate  automatically.  At a  meeting  of the  Board  on June  13,  2007,  in
anticipation  of  settlement  of  the  Transaction,  the  Board  approved  a new
subadvisory  agreement  with  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe,  which  took  effect on
October 1, 2007.

     NFA recommended that the subadvisory agreement with Affiliated  NorthPointe
be replaced  with an  agreement  with  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe  for the Funds.
Unaffiliated NorthPointe was recommended for a number of reasons,  including the
portfolio  managers'  previous   investment   experience  with  the  Funds,  the
investment  process and risk  management  process,  and the  performance  of the
experienced team of portfolio managers that would manage the Funds' assets.

     No material  changes have taken place or are anticipated in the composition
of the portfolios of the Funds or in the investment practices or techniques used
by NorthPointe as a result of the Transaction.  The portfolio  managers for each
of the Funds are  identical  both  prior to and after the  Transaction.  The new
subadvisory agreement with Unaffiliated NorthPointe is identical in all material
respects  to  the  Trust's  previous   subadvisory   agreement  with  Affiliated
NorthPointe.

     Based on the  foregoing  considerations,  NFA  decided  to  recommend  that
Unaffiliated NorthPointe serve as subadviser to the Funds.

BOARD CONSIDERATIONS

     At an in-person  Board meeting held on June 13, 2007, the Board,  including
the Trustees who are not  considered  "interested  persons" under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act")  ("Independent  Trustees"),  discussed  and
unanimously  approved the  subadvisory  agreement,  on behalf of the Funds.  The
Trustees had been  provided  with detailed  materials  relating to  Unaffiliated
NorthPointe  in advance of the meeting and met with  management of  Unaffiliated
NorthPointe at the meeting.  The Independent  Trustees met in executive  session
with their independent legal counsel prior to the meeting to discuss information
relating  to the  change and the  possible  effect on the  Funds.  The  material
factors and  conclusions  that formed the basis for the approval  are  discussed
below.

     The Nature,  Extent,  and Quality of the Services  Provided by Unaffiliated
NorthPointe,  as Subadviser. The Board considered that the selling of Nationwide
Emerging Managers'  ownership  interest in NorthPointe to NorthPointe  Holdings,
LLC  represented a recent,  larger  restructuring  of  Nationwide  Corporation's
("NWC"), the parent company of Nationwide Emerging Managers, investment advisory
business.  In light of this restructuring and selling of Affiliated  NorthPointe
and certain other NWC subsidiaries, it was important to the Board that the Trust
retains,  if in the best  interests  of the Funds and  their  shareholders,  the
investment  management  expertise  of the  Funds'  current  portfolio  managers,
traders,  analysts, and other investment personnel. The Board also believed that
any change in  subadviser  should not result in a change in the fees paid by the
Funds.  The Board noted that the same  subadvisory  agreement with  Unaffiliated
NorthPointe  would  be  entered  into  that was  previously  entered  into  with
Affiliated  NorthPointe,  that there would be no change in portfolio management,
and that the fees were not expected to change. As a result, the Board determined
that there should be no change in the nature, extent, or quality of services the
Funds or their shareholders receive from Affiliated NorthPointe.

     The Board then considered whether to approve the subadvisory agreement with
Unaffiliated  NorthPointe.   Specifically,  the  Board  considered  Unaffiliated
NorthPointe's stated intention to continue to employ the same portfolio managers
who currently provide portfolio management services to the Funds. The Board also
considered   Unaffiliated   NorthPointe's   representation   that   Unaffiliated
NorthPointe, as the Funds' subadviser, will continue to provide the same nature,
extent, and quality of services that Affiliated NorthPointe previously provided.
The  Board  also  noted  that NFA  proposed  to pay  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe's
subadvisory  fees  out of the  advisory  fee  that  NFA  receives  and  that the
subadvisory fees were expected to be identical.  As a result,  there would be no
change in the advisory fees paid by the Funds.

     Based on this information, the Board concluded that the nature, extent, and
quality of the subadvisory  services to be provided by Unaffiliated  NorthPointe
were  appropriate  for the Funds in light of their  investment  objectives,  and
thus, unanimously agreed to approve the subadvisory agreement.

     The  Investment  Performance of the Funds.  The Board  evaluated the Funds'
investment  performance and considered the performance of the current  portfolio
managers  who are  expected  to  continue  to manage the Funds as  employees  of
Unaffiliated NorthPointe. The Board also reviewed the comparative performance of
the Funds based on data  provided by Lipper.  The  Trustees  concluded  that the
historical  investment  performance  record of the  portfolio  managers  who are
expected to continue to manage the Funds,  in  combination  with  various  other
factors, supported a decision to approve the subadvisory agreement.

     Fee Levels; Economies of Scale. The Board considered the Funds' overall fee
level and noted that the  subadvisory  fees were not expected to change and that
the overall  expenses of the Funds would  remain the same under the  subadvisory
agreement,  as Unaffiliated  NorthPointe's fees are paid out of the advisory fee
that NFA receives from the Funds. The Trustees considered the expense limitation
in place for the Funds whereby NFA has  contractually  agreed to waive  advisory
fees NFA receives from the Funds and/or pay Fund expenses.  The Board noted that
the Funds' current advisory fee schedule includes  breakpoints that are intended
to result in fee reductions.

     Terms of the  Subadvisory  Agreement.  The Board  reviewed the terms of the
subadvisory  agreement  and noted that the terms are  identical  in all material
respects as the terms of the subadvisory agreements that the Trust currently has
in place with its unaffiliated  subadvisers.  The Board concluded that the terms
were fair and reasonable.

     Conclusion.  The Board,  including all of the Independent Trustees,  having
considered each of the foregoing factors, concluded that each factor supported a
determination to approve the subadvisory  agreement.  No single factor alone was
determinative  in the decision of the Board,  rather the totality of the factors
taken together  informed the Board's  decisions.  However,  the Board noted that
Unaffiliated NorthPointe is comprised of the same personnel who currently manage
the Funds and that the approval of the new  subadvisory  agreement was needed in
order to retain  the  investment  management  expertise  of the  Funds'  current
portfolio management teams. The Board of Trustees concluded that the approval of
the subadvisory agreement was in the best interests of the Funds, as applicable,
and their  respective  shareholders  and  unanimously  approved the  subadvisory
agreement.

THE SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

     The subadvisory agreement with Unaffiliated  NorthPointe,  dated October 1,
2007  (the  "Agreement"),  was  approved  by the  Board  on June  13,  2007.  In
accordance  with the  Manager  of  Managers  Order,  the  Agreement  will not be
submitted to the Funds'  shareholders  for their  approval.  The  following is a
brief summary of the material terms of the Agreement.

     Term.  The  Agreement  has an initial  term that expires on May 1, 2009 and
continues for successive one-year terms thereafter as long as its continuance is
approved by the Board.  The Agreement can be terminated on not more than 60 days
written  notice  by NFA,  the  Trust,  on behalf of a Fund,  a  majority  of the
outstanding  voting  securities  of a Fund,  or  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe.  The
Agreement terminates automatically if assigned by any party.

     Fees.  Under the Agreement,  the annual fee payable by NFA to  Unaffiliated
NorthPointe  (as a percentage  of each Fund's  average  daily net assets) is set
forth in the table attached as Exhibit A.

     Duties.  Under the  Agreement,  NFA is  responsible  for assigning all or a
portion of each Fund's assets to Unaffiliated NorthPointe and for overseeing and
reviewing  the  performance  of  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe.  Under  the  current
arrangement,  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe will manage each Fund's assets under the
supervision of NFA. Unaffiliated  NorthPointe is required to manage each Fund in
accordance  with each  Fund's  stated  investment  objective  and  restrictions,
subject to the supervision of NFA and the Board.

     Brokerage.  Under the Agreement,  Unaffiliated NorthPointe is authorized to
purchase and sell  securities on behalf of each Fund through  brokers or dealers
Unaffiliated NorthPointe selects and to negotiate commissions to be paid on such
transactions.   In  doing  so,  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe  is  required  to  use
reasonable  efforts to obtain the most favorable  price and execution  available
but is permitted,  subject to certain limitations,  to pay brokerage commissions
that are  higher  than what  another  broker  might  have  charged in return for
brokerage and research services.

     Indemnification.  Under the  Agreement,  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe  and its
affiliates and controlling  persons cannot be held liable to NFA, the Trust, the
Funds or the Funds'  shareholders  in the  absence of willful  misfeasance,  bad
faith,  gross negligence,  reckless disregard of its duties under the Agreement,
or  violation of  applicable  law. The  Agreement  provides  that nothing in the
Agreement,   however,   relieves  Unaffiliated   NorthPointe  from  any  of  its
obligations under federal and state securities laws and other applicable law.

     Unaffiliated  NorthPointe is required,  under the  Agreement,  to indemnify
NFA,  the  Trust,  the Funds and their  respective  affiliates  and  controlling
persons  for  any  liability  or  expenses  sustained  by them  as a  result  of
Unaffiliated  NorthPointe's  willful  misfeasance,  bad faith, gross negligence,
reckless  disregard of its duties or violation of applicable  law. The Agreement
contains provisions pursuant to which NFA is required to indemnify  Unaffiliated
NorthPointe for any liability and expenses which may be sustained as a result of
NFA's willful  misfeasance,  bad faith, gross negligence,  reckless disregard of
its duties or violation  of  applicable  law.  The Trust is required,  under the
Agreement,  to  indemnify  Unaffiliated  NorthPointe,  its  affiliates  and  its
controlling  persons,  for any  liability  and  expenses  sustained by them as a
result of the Trust's willful malfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, reckless
disregard of its duties or violation of applicable law.

     Regulatory  Pronouncements.  The Agreement also includes provisions arising
from  regulatory   changes.   These   provisions   include  a  requirement  that
Unaffiliated  NorthPointe establish and maintain written proxy voting procedures
in compliance with current, applicable laws and regulations,  including, but not
limited  to,  Rule  30b1-4  under the 1940 Act.  Also,  the  provisions  include
language  required by Rule 17a-10 under the 1940 Act that  permits  Unaffiliated
NorthPointe  to execute  securities  transactions  under  limited  circumstances
through  broker-dealers  deemed to be  affiliated  with the  Funds,  subject  to
certain prohibitions on consultations between Unaffiliated NorthPointe and other
subadvisers to funds affiliated with the Funds.
