The charge will apply to the lesser of the original cost of the Class C shares being redeemed or the proceeds of your redemption and will be calculated without regard to any redemption fee. When you redeem Class C shares, the redemption order is processed so that the lowest CDSC is charged. Class C shares that are not subject to a CDSC are redeemed first. In addition, you will not be charged a CDSC when you redeem shares that you acquired through reinvestment of Investors Fund dividends or capital gains. Any CDSC paid on the redemptions of Class C shares expressed as a percentage of the applicable redemption amount may be higher or lower than the charge described due to rounding.

[2] Pursuant to an operating expense limitation agreement between Centerstone Investors, LLC (the "Adviser") and the Centerstone Investors Trust (the "Trust"), the Adviser has agreed to waive its fees and/or absorb expenses of the Investors Fund to ensure that Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses (excluding any front-end or contingent deferred loads, brokerage fees and commissions, acquired fund fees and expenses, borrowing costs (such as interest and dividend expense on securities sold short), taxes and extraordinary expenses such as litigation) for the Investors Fund do not exceed 1.35%, 2.10% and 1.10%, of the Investors Fund's average net assets, for Class A, Class C and Class I shares, respectively, through July 31, 2022. This operating expense limitation agreement can be terminated only by, or with the consent of, the Board of Trustees. The Adviser is permitted to receive reimbursement from the Investors Fund for fees it waived and Fund expenses it paid, subject to the limitation that: (1) the reimbursement for fees and expenses will be made only if payable within three years from the date the fees and expenses were initially waived or reimbursed; and (2) the reimbursement may not be made if it would cause the expense limitation in effect at the time of the waiver or currently in effect, whichever is lower, to be exceeded.

Portfolio Turnover [Heading] Portfolio Turnover.
Portfolio Turnover [Text Block]

The Investors Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Investors Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example, affect the Investors Fund’s performance. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020, the Investors Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 49.72% of the average value of its portfolio.

Strategy [Heading] Principal Investment Strategies.
Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

To achieve its objective of long-term capital growth, the Investors Fund will normally invest at least 60% of its net assets in equity and equity related securities and up to 40% of its total assets in fixed income instruments (without regard to credit rating or time to maturity). The Investors Fund may also invest in cash and cash equivalents. The Investors Fund primarily invests its assets in common stocks (and securities convertible into common stocks) of U.S. and foreign companies. The Investors Fund may also invest in foreign and domestic preferred equity securities and American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). The Investors Fund may generally invest in the following fixed income securities: notes, bills and debentures, bank debt obligations, high-yield debt securities rated below investment grade, convertible securities, Rule 144A securities (Rule 144A securities are restricted securities that can be resold to qualified institutional buyers but not to the general public); and securities issued by supranational organizations and sovereign debt securities. The Investors Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in lower-rated or defaulted debt securities (including so-called “junk bonds”), corporate debt, comparable unrated debt securities, or other indebtedness (or participations in the indebtedness) of such companies. The Investors Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in precious metals such as gold or silver, or in instruments related to such precious metals such as commodity contracts, options on such contracts, structured notes and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). The Investors Fund may invest in the foregoing securities or assets directly or gain exposure to such securities or assets indirectly by investing in ETFs or other investment companies.

 

The Investors Fund particularly seeks companies that have financial strength and stability, strong management and fundamental value. The Adviser will follow a global, bottom-up oriented long-term investment philosophy. The Investors Fund will focus its investments in areas where the Adviser finds the most compelling opportunities at any given moment and on situations that, in the Adviser’s opinion, have the potential for capital appreciation. The investment philosophy and strategy of the Investors Fund seeks a “margin of safety” in investments with the goal being to avoid permanent impairment of capital (as opposed to temporary losses in share value relating to shifting investor sentiment or other normal share price volatility). In particular, a discount to “intrinsic value” is sought even for the best of businesses, with a deeper discount demanded for companies that the Adviser views as under business model, balance sheet, management or other stresses. For these reasons, the Investors Fund may seek investments in the equity securities of companies in industries that are believed to be temporarily depressed.

 

Investment decisions for the Investors Fund are made without regard to the capitalization (size) of the companies in which it invests. The Investors Fund may invest in any size company, including large, medium and smaller companies. Under normal circumstances, the Investors Fund anticipates it will allocate a significant amount of its net assets to foreign investments. That generally means that at least 15% of the Investors Fund’s net assets will be allocated to foreign investments (the Investors Fund expects at least 30% of its equity investments will normally be in foreign equities).

 

The Adviser may invest the Investors Fund’s assets in any region of the world. It may invest in companies based in emerging markets, typically in the Far East, Latin America and Eastern Europe, however, the emphasis will be in companies operating in developed countries, such as those of the U.S., Canada, Japan and Western Europe.

 

The Investors Fund may invest a portion of its assets in derivative instruments. These include forward contracts and futures contracts. The Investors Fund may invest in derivatives primarily to seek to hedge exposure to certain markets and securities and/or for speculative (i.e., non-hedging) purposes. The Investors Fund may seek to hedge its exposure to foreign currencies, typically through the use of foreign currency derivatives, including currency forward contracts and may engage in currency transactions with counterparties to gain or reduce exposure to certain currencies or to generate income or gains.

 

The Investors Fund may also engage in securities lending to generate income.

 

The Adviser will consider selling a security when it determines that such security no longer offers fundamental value or financial strength and stability.
Risk [Heading] Principal Risks.
Risk Narrative [Text Block]

Remember that in addition to possibly not achieving your investment goals, you could lose money by investing in the Investors Fund. Each risk summarized below is a principal risk of investing in the Investors Fund and different risks may be more significant at different times depending upon market conditions or other factors.

 

♦ Value Investing Risk. Value investing attempts to identify companies selling at a discount to their intrinsic value. Value investing is subject to the risk that a company’s intrinsic value may never be fully realized by the market or that a company judged by the Adviser to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced. Additionally, securities that exhibit value characteristics tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions.

 

♦ Equity Securities Risk. The Investors Fund primarily invests in common stock (and securities convertible into common stocks) and may also invest in preferred stocks and ADRs, which subjects the Investors Fund and its shareholders to the risks associated with common stock investing. Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the Investors Fund. Factors such as domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the securities markets.

 

♦ Foreign Investment Risk. Foreign securities can involve additional risks relating to political, economic or regulatory conditions in foreign countries. These risks include fluctuations in foreign currencies; withholding or other taxes; trading, settlement, custodial, and other operational risks; and the less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of some foreign markets.

 

♦ Market Risk. The value of the Investors Fund’s portfolio holdings may fluctuate in response to events specific to the companies or markets in which the Investors Fund invests, as well as economic, political, or social events in the United States or abroad. The Investors Fund is subject to the risk that the securities markets will move down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, based on overall economic conditions and other factors, which may negatively affect the Investors Fund’s performance. Securities markets may experience long periods of decline in value.

 

Local, state, regional, national or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the Investors Fund and its investments and could result in decreases to the Investors Fund’s net asset value. Political, geopolitical, natural and other events, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, government shutdowns, market closures, natural and environmental disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises and related events and governments’ reactions to such events have led, and in the future may lead, to economic uncertainty, decreased economic activity, increased market volatility and other disruptive effects on U.S. and global economies and markets. Such events may have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on a Fund and its investments. For example, a widespread health crisis such as a global pandemic could cause substantial market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, impact the ability to complete redemptions, and affect Investors Fund performance. A health crisis may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks. In addition, the increasing interconnectedness of markets around the world may result in many markets being affected by events or conditions in a single country or region or events affecting a single or small number of issuers.

 

♦ Currency Risk. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates will affect the value of what the Investors Fund owns and the Investors Fund’s share price. Generally, when the U.S. dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, an investment in that country loses value because that currency is worth fewer U.S. dollars. Devaluation of a currency by a country’s government or banking authority also will have a significant impact on the value of any investments denominated in that currency. Currency markets generally are not as regulated as securities markets.

 

♦ Volatility Risk. The Investors Fund may have investments that appreciate or decrease significantly in value over short periods of time. This may cause the Investors Fund’s net asset value per share to experience significant increases or declines in value over short periods of time.

 

♦ Sector Risk. The risk that if the Investors Fund invests a significant portion of its total assets in certain issuers within the same economic sector, an adverse economic, business or political development affecting that sector may affect the value of the Investors Fund’s investments more than if the Investors Fund’s investments were not so concentrated.

 

♦ Small-Cap Company Risk. The risk that the securities of small-cap companies may be more volatile and less liquid than the securities of companies with larger market capitalizations. These small-cap companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of large or mid-cap companies, therefore, their securities tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies.

 

♦ Mid-Cap Company Risk. The risk that the mid-cap companies in which the Investors Fund may invest may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. In particular, these mid-sized companies may pose additional risks, including liquidity risk because these companies tend to have limited product lines, markets and financial resources, and may depend upon a relatively small management group. Therefore, mid-cap stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies.

 

♦ Large-Cap Company Risk. The risk that larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges such as changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors.

 

♦ Gold and Precious Metals Risk. The Investors Fund may invest directly and indirectly in precious metals. Gold and other precious metals prices can be influenced by a variety of economic, financial and political factors, especially inflation, which may have an impact on the Investors Fund’s performance.

 

♦ ETF Risk. Investment in an ETF carries risks associated with the ETF’s underlying securities and market risk. Also, if the area of the market representing the underlying index or benchmark does not perform as expected for any reason, the value of the investment in the ETF may decline. In addition, due to transactions via market prices rather than at net asset value, the performance of an ETF may not completely replicate the performance of the underlying index. ETFs are also subject to investment adviser fees and other expenses, which will be indirectly paid by the Investors Fund.

 

♦ ADR Risk. ADRs are receipts issued by U.S. banks evidencing ownership in securities of foreign issuers. Securities of foreign issuers, and consequently ADRs, may decrease in value due to changes in currency exchange rates, the economic climate in the issuer’s home country or for a variety of other reasons.

 

♦ Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a bond or other instrument will not be able to make payments of interest and principal when due. Changes in an issuer’s credit rating or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also affect the value of the Investors Fund’s investment in that issuer. In addition, fluctuations in interest rates can affect the value of debt instruments held by the Investors Fund. An increase in interest rates tends to reduce the market value of debt instruments, while a decline in interest rates tends to increase their values. Longer-duration instruments tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter durations.

 

♦ Cyber Security Risk. Cybersecurity breaches may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to Fund assets, customer data, or proprietary information, or cause the Investors Fund and/or its service providers to suffer data corruption or lose operational functionality.

 

♦ Derivatives Risk. The risks of investments in derivatives, including options, forward contracts, futures contracts and foreign currency derivatives, include the risk that derivatives may result in losses that are potentially unlimited and that partially or completely offset gains in portfolio positions. The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. The risks associated with investments in derivatives also include liquidity, interest rate, market, credit and management risks, mispricing or improper valuation. Changes in the market value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index, and the Fund could lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, if a derivative is being used for hedging purposes there can be no assurance given that each derivative position will achieve a perfect correlation with the security or currency against which it is being hedged, or that a particular derivative position will be available when sought by the portfolio manager.

 

♦ Emerging Markets Risk. A magnification of the risks that apply to foreign investments. These risks are greater for securities of companies in emerging market countries because the countries may have less stable governments, more volatile currencies and less established markets.

 

♦ Fixed Income Risk. When the Investors Fund invests in fixed income securities (without regard to credit rating or time to maturity), the value of your investment in the Investors Fund may fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default) and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments).

 

♦ General Risks. Economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events are among the factors affecting the securities markets in which the Investors Fund invests. There is risk that these and other factors may adversely affect the Investors Fund’s performance. You could lose money by investing in the Investors Fund.

 

♦ Hedging Risk. Hedging, including foreign currency hedging, is a strategy in which the Investors Fund uses a derivative to offset the risks associated with other Fund holdings. There can be no assurance that the Investors Fund’s hedging strategy will reduce risk or that hedging transactions will be either available or cost effective. The Investors Fund is not required to use hedging and may choose not to do so.

 

♦ Junk Bond Risk. The risk that lower-rated or defaulted debt securities may fluctuate more in price, and are less liquid than higher-rated securities because issuers of such lower-rated debt securities are not as strong financially, and are more likely to encounter financial difficulties and be more vulnerable to adverse changes in the economy.

 

♦ Management Risk. The risk that the investment process used by the Investors Fund’s portfolio manager could fail to achieve the Investors Fund’s investment goal and cause an investment in the Investors Fund to lose value.

 

♦ Private Fund Risk. The Investors Fund’s investments in private funds are subject to the risks of such funds’ underlying investments, which will vary depending on the industries and business lines in which such private funds invest. These risks include additional illiquidity risk, foreign investing risk, currency risk, interest rate risk, default risk, valuation risk and derivatives risk. Generally, little public information exists for private investments, and there is a risk the Investors Fund may not have sufficient information to make a fully informed investment decision.

 

♦ Regulatory Risk. Changes in the laws or regulations of the United States or other countries, including any changes to applicable tax laws and regulations, could impair the ability of the Investors Fund to achieve its investment objective and could increase the operating expenses of the Investors Fund.

 

♦ Securities Lending Risk. The Investors Fund may lend portfolio securities to U.S. Government securities dealers and to institutions, such as banks and certain broker-dealers. The Investors Fund may experience a loss or delay in the recovery of its securities if the borrower breaches its agreement with the Investors Fund.

Strategy [Heading] Principal Investment Strategies.
Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

To achieve its objective of long-term capital growth, normally, the International Fund invests at least 60% of its net assets in foreign (non-U.S.) equity securities. Equity securities are selected based on their price versus value, business quality and balance sheet strength, among other factors. The International Fund also may invest up to 40% of its total assets in debt instruments (including those of foreign issuers). The International Fund may also invest in cash and cash equivalents. The International Fund may generally invest in the following fixed income securities: notes, bills and debentures, bank debt obligations, high-yield debt securities rated below investment grade, convertible securities, Rule 144A securities (Rule 144A securities are restricted securities that can be resold to qualified institutional buyers but not to the general public); and securities issued by supranational organizations and sovereign debt securities. The International Fund may invest in debt securities generally without regard to their credit rating or time to maturity. The International Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in lower-rated or defaulted debt securities (including so-called “junk bonds”), corporate debt, comparable unrated debt securities, or other indebtedness (or participations in the indebtedness) of such companies. In selecting debt securities to achieve the International Fund’s investment objective, the Adviser will consider the likelihood of default and the potential for capital appreciation. The International Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in precious metals such as gold or silver, or in instruments related to such precious metals such as commodity contracts, options on such contracts, structured notes and ETFs. The International Fund may invest in the foregoing securities or assets directly or gain exposure to such securities or assets indirectly by investing in ETFs or other investment companies.

 

The International Fund particularly seeks companies that have financial strength and stability, strong management and fundamental value. The Adviser will follow a bottom-up oriented long-term investment philosophy. The International Fund identifies investment opportunities through intensive research of individual companies and generally does not focus or rely on current stock market conditions and other macro factors when assessing potential investment opportunities. The International Fund will focus its investments in areas where the Adviser finds the most compelling opportunities at any given moment and on situations that, in the Adviser’s opinion, have the potential for capital appreciation. The investment philosophy and strategy of the International Fund seeks a “margin of safety” in investments with the goal being to avoid permanent impairment of capital (as opposed to temporary losses in share value relating to shifting investor sentiment or other normal share price volatility). In particular, a discount to “intrinsic value” is sought even for the best of businesses, with a deeper discount demanded for companies that the Adviser views as under business model, balance sheet, management or other stresses. For these reasons, the International Fund may seek investments in the equity securities of companies in industries that are believed to be temporarily depressed.

 

Investment decisions for the International Fund are made without regard to the capitalization (size) of the companies in which it invests. The International Fund may invest in any size company, including large, medium and smaller companies.

 

The International Fund will invest primarily in equity securities of companies traded in mature markets (markets that already have a number of established companies, for example, Japan, Germany and France) and may invest in countries whose economies are still developing (sometimes called “emerging markets”). The International Fund intends to invest its assets in investments that are tied economically to a number of countries throughout the world. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest in issuers located in at least three different countries (not including the U.S. although the Fund may also invest in U.S. issuers).

 

The International Fund may invest a portion of its assets in derivative instruments. These include forward contracts and futures contracts. The International Fund may invest in derivatives primarily to seek to hedge exposure to certain markets and securities and/or for speculative (i.e., non-hedging) purposes. The International Fund may seek to hedge its exposure to foreign currencies, typically through the use of foreign currency derivatives, including currency forward contracts and may engage in currency transactions with counterparties to gain or reduce exposure to certain currencies or to generate income or gains.

 

The International Fund may also engage in securities lending to generate income.

 

The Adviser will consider selling a security when it determines that such security no longer offers fundamental value or financial strength and stability.

Risk Narrative [Text Block]

Remember that in addition to possibly not achieving your investment goals, you could lose money by investing in the International Fund. Each risk summarized below is a principal risk of investing in the International Fund and different risks may be more significant at different times depending upon market conditions or other factors.

 

♦ Value Investing Risk. Value investing attempts to identify companies selling at a discount to their intrinsic value. Value investing is subject to the risk that a company’s intrinsic value may never be fully realized by the market or that a company judged by the Adviser to be undervalued may actually be appropriately priced. Additionally, securities that exhibit value characteristics tend to perform differently and shift into and out of favor with investors depending on changes in market and economic sentiment and conditions.

 

♦ Equity Securities Risk. The International Fund invests in common stock (and securities convertible into common stocks) which subjects the International Fund and its shareholders to the risks associated with common stock investing. Overall stock market risks may affect the value of the International Fund. Factors such as domestic economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events affect the securities markets. When the value of the International Fund’s investments goes down, your investment in the International Fund decreases in value and you could lose money.

 

♦ Foreign Investment Risk. Foreign securities can involve additional risks relating to political, economic or regulatory conditions in foreign countries. These risks include fluctuations in foreign currencies; withholding or other taxes; trading, settlement, custodial, and other operational risks; and the less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of some foreign markets.

 

♦ Market Risk. The value of the International Fund’s portfolio holdings may fluctuate in response to events specific to the companies or markets in which the International Fund invests, as well as economic, political, or social events in the United States or abroad. The International Fund is subject to the risk that the securities markets will move down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, based on overall economic conditions and other factors, which may negatively affect the International Fund’s performance. Securities markets may experience long periods of decline in value.

 

Local, state, regional, national or global events such as war, acts of terrorism, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues, recessions, or other events could have a significant impact on the International Fund and its investments and could result in decreases to the International Fund’s net asset value. Political, geopolitical, natural and other events, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, government shutdowns, market closures, natural and environmental disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises and related events and governments’ reactions to such events have led, and in the future may lead, to economic uncertainty, decreased economic activity, increased market volatility and other disruptive effects on U.S. and global economies and markets. Such events may have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on a Fund and its investments. For example, a widespread health crisis such as a global pandemic could cause substantial market volatility, exchange trading suspensions and closures, impact the ability to complete redemptions, and affect International Fund performance. A health crisis may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks. In addition, the increasing interconnectedness of markets around the world may result in many markets being affected by events or conditions in a single country or region or events affecting a single or small number of issuers.

 

♦ Currency Risk. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates will affect the value of what the International Fund owns and the International Fund’s share price. Generally, when the U.S. dollar rises in value against a foreign currency, an investment in that country loses value because that currency is worth fewer U.S. dollars. Devaluation of a currency by a country’s government or banking authority also will have a significant impact on the value of any investments denominated in that currency. Currency markets generally are not as regulated as securities markets.

 

♦ Volatility Risk. The International Fund may have investments that appreciate or decrease significantly in value over short periods of time. This may cause the International Fund’s net asset value per share to experience significant increases or declines in value over short periods of time.

 

♦ Sector Risk. The risk that if the International Fund invests a significant portion of its total assets in certain issuers within the same economic sector, an adverse economic, business or political development affecting that sector may affect the value of the International Fund’s investments more than if the International Fund’s investments were not so concentrated.

 

♦ Small-Cap Company Risk. The risk that the securities of small-cap companies may be more volatile and less liquid than the securities of companies with larger market capitalizations. These small-cap companies may not have the management experience, financial resources, product diversification and competitive strengths of large-or mid-cap companies, therefore, their securities tend to be more volatile than the securities of larger, more established companies.

 

♦ Mid-Cap Company Risk. The risk that the mid-cap companies in which the International Fund may invest may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. In particular, these mid-sized companies may pose additional risks, including liquidity risk, because these companies tend to have limited product lines, markets and financial resources, and may depend upon a relatively small management group. Therefore, mid-cap stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies.

 

♦ Large-Cap Company Risk. The risk that larger, more established companies may be unable to respond quickly to new competitive challenges such as changes in consumer tastes or innovative smaller competitors.

 

♦ Gold and Precious Metals Risk. The International Fund may invest directly and indirectly in precious metals. Gold and other precious metals prices can be influenced by a variety of economic, financial and political factors, especially inflation, which may have an impact on the International Fund’s performance.

 

♦ ETF Risk. Investment in an ETF carries risks associated with the ETF’s underlying securities and market risk. Also, if the area of the market representing the underlying index or benchmark does not perform as expected for any reason, the value of the investment in the ETF may decline. In addition, due to transactions via market prices rather than at net asset value, the performance of an ETF may not completely replicate the performance of the underlying index. ETFs are also subject to investment adviser fees and other expenses, which will be indirectly paid by the International Fund.

 

♦ Credit Risk. Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a bond or other instrument will not be able to make payments of interest and principal when due. Changes in an issuer’s credit rating or the market’s perception of an issuer’s creditworthiness may also affect the value of the International Fund’s investment in that issuer. In addition, fluctuations in interest rates can affect the value of debt instruments held by the International Fund. An increase in interest rates tends to reduce the market value of debt instruments, while a decline in interest rates tends to increase their values. Longer-duration instruments tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes than those with shorter durations.

 

♦ Cyber Security Risk. Cybersecurity breaches may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to Fund assets, customer data, or proprietary information, or cause the International Fund and/or its service providers to suffer data corruption or lose operational functionality.

 

♦ Derivatives Risk. The risks of investments in derivatives, including options, forward contracts, futures contracts and foreign currency derivatives, include the risk that derivatives may result in losses that are potentially unlimited and that partially or completely offset gains in portfolio positions. The use of derivative instruments involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. These risks include (i) the risk that the counterparty to a derivative transaction may not fulfill its contractual obligations; (ii) risk of mispricing or improper valuation; and (iii) the risk that changes in the value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index. The risks associated with investments in derivatives also include liquidity, interest rate, market, credit and management risks, mispricing or improper valuation. Changes in the market value of the derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index, and the Fund could lose more than the principal amount invested. In addition, if a derivative is being used for hedging purposes there can be no assurance given that each derivative position will achieve a perfect correlation with the security or currency against which it is being hedged, or that a particular derivative position will be available when sought by the portfolio manager.

 

♦ Emerging Markets Risk. A magnification of the risks that apply to foreign investments. These risks are greater for securities of companies in emerging market countries because the countries may have less stable governments, more volatile currencies and less established markets.

 

♦ Fixed Income Risk. When the International Fund invests in fixed income securities (without regard to credit rating or time to maturity), the value of your investment in the International Fund may fluctuate with changes in interest rates. Other risk factors include credit risk (the debtor may default) and prepayment risk (the debtor may pay its obligation early, reducing the amount of interest payments).

 

♦ General Risks. Economic growth and market conditions, interest rate levels, and political events are among the factors affecting the securities markets in which the International Fund invests. There is risk that these and other factors may adversely affect the International Fund’s performance. You could lose money by investing in the International Fund.

 

♦ Hedging Risk. Hedging, including foreign currency hedging, is a strategy in which the International Fund uses a derivative to offset the risks associated with other Fund holdings. There can be no assurance that the International Fund’s hedging strategy will reduce risk or that hedging transactions will be either available or cost effective. The International Fund is not required to use hedging and may choose not to do so.

 

♦ Junk Bond Risk. The risk that lower-rated or defaulted debt securities may fluctuate more in price, and are less liquid than higher-rated securities because issuers of such lower-rated debt securities are not as strong financially, and are more likely to encounter financial difficulties and be more vulnerable to adverse changes in the economy.

 

♦ Management Risk. The risk that the investment process used by the International Fund’s portfolio manager could fail to achieve the International Fund’s investment goal and cause an investment in the International Fund to lose value.

 

♦ Private Fund Risk. The International Fund’s investments in private funds are subject to the risks of such funds’ underlying investments, which will vary depending on the industries and business lines in which such private funds invest. These risks include additional illiquidity risk, foreign investing risk, currency risk, interest rate risk, default risk, valuation risk and derivatives risk. Generally, little public information exists for private investments, and there is a risk the International Fund may not have sufficient information to make a fully informed investment decision.

 

♦ Regulatory Risk. Changes in the laws or regulations of the United States or other countries, including any changes to applicable tax laws and regulations, could impair the ability of the International Fund to achieve its investment objective and could increase the operating expenses of the International Fund.

 

♦ Securities Lending Risk. The International Fund may lend portfolio securities to U.S. Government securities dealers and to institutions, such as banks and certain broker-dealers. The International Fund may experience a loss or delay in the recovery of its securities if the borrower breaches its agreement with the International Fund.
