Investments in real estate securities may be subject to specific risks, such as risks to general and local economic conditions, and risks related to individual properties. Investing in one economic sector, such as real estate, may result in greater price fluctuations than owning a portfolio of diversified investments. Smaller company stocks may experience larger price fluctuations than large-company stocks or other types of investments. Seligman LaSalle Global Real Estate Fund and Seligman LaSalle International Real Estate Fund, Inc. are "non-diversified" funds and thus may hold fewer securities than other funds. A decline in the value of those investments would cause a Fund's overall value to decline to a greater degree than if the Fund held a more diversified portfolio. There are specific risks associated with global investing, such as currency fluctuations, foreign taxation, differences in financial reporting practices, and rapid changes in political and economic conditions. Because of the special risks involved with investing in securities of emerging market companies, investing in such companies should be considered speculative and not appropriate for individuals who require safety of principal or stable income from their investments. You should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses of the Funds carefully before investing. You can obtain Seligman LaSalle Global Real Estate Fund's prospectus, most recent periodic reports and other regulatory filings and Seligman LaSalle International Real Estate Fund's most recent periodic reports and other regulatory filings by contacting your financial advisor or Seligman Services, Inc. at 800-597-6068. The prospectus, reports, and other filings can also be found on the Securities and Exchange Commission's EDGAR Database. You should read the prospectus, reports, and other filings carefully before investing or sending money. About the Funds' Investment Manager J. & W. Seligman & Co.
