Valuation of Investments:

 

Net asset value (“NAV”) per share for each Class of each Portfolio is determined on each day the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) is open for business, generally as of the close of regular session trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, the “Regular Closing Time”). When trading on the NYSE is unexpectedly closed prior to the Regular Closing Time, or an earlier scheduled close (such as on certain days around holidays when the NYSE is scheduled to close before 4:00 p.m.), and remains closed through the time of the Regular Closing Time (or an earlier scheduled close), the NAV of each Class of each Portfolio may nonetheless be calculated as of the Regular Closing Time (or an earlier scheduled close) if, in the judgment of Lazard Asset Management LLC (the “Investment Manager”), there is sufficient trading in other markets between the unexpected close and the Regular Closing Time (or an earlier scheduled close) for securities for which the NYSE is usually considered the primary market. NAV per share is determined by dividing the value of the total assets of the Portfolio represented by such Class, less all liabilities, by the total number of Portfolio shares of such Class outstanding.

 

Market values for securities listed on the NYSE, NASDAQ national market or other US or foreign exchanges or markets are generally based on the last reported sales price on the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded on each valuation date; securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the most recent quoted bid price. The Lazard Funds, Inc. (the “Fund”) values NASDAQ-traded securities at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price, which may not be the last reported sales price in certain instances. Exchange-traded options are valued at the last reported sales price on the exchange on which the contract is principally traded. Swap agreements, such as credit default and interest rate swap agreements and swap agreements with respect to equity securities, generally are valued by an independent pricing service. Forward currency contracts generally are valued using quotations from an independent pricing service. Investments in money market funds are valued at the fund’s NAV. Repurchase agreements are valued at the principal amounts plus accrued interest.

 

Bonds and other fixed-income securities that are not exchange-traded are valued on the basis of prices provided by independent pricing services which are based on, among other things, trading in securities with similar characteristics, brokers’ quotations and/or a matrix system which considers such factors as other security prices, yields and maturities.

 

The Valuation Committee of the Investment Manager, which meets periodically and acts pursuant to delegated authority from the Board of Directors (the “Board”), may evaluate a variety of factors to determine the fair value of securities for which market quotations are determined not to be readily available or reliable. These factors include, but are not limited to, the type of security, the value of comparable securities, observations from financial institutions and relevant news events. Input from the Investment Manager’s portfolio managers/analysts also will be considered.

 

If a significant event materially affecting the value of securities occurs between the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded and the time when a Portfolio’s NAV is calculated, or when current market quotations otherwise are determined not to be readily available or reliable (including restricted or other illiquid securities such as certain derivative instruments), such securities will be valued at their fair value as determined by, or in accordance with procedures approved by, the Board. The fair value of non-US securities may be determined with the assistance of an independent pricing service using correlations between the movement of prices of such securities and indices of US securities and other appropriate indicators, such as closing market prices of relevant ADRs or futures contracts. Non-US securities may trade on days when a Portfolio is not open for business, thus affecting the value of the Portfolio’s assets on days when Portfolio shareholders may not be able to buy or sell Portfolio shares.

 

The effect of using fair value pricing is that the NAV of a Portfolio will reflect the affected securities’ values as determined in the judgment of the Board or its designee instead of being determined by the market. Using a fair value pricing methodology to price securities may result in a value that is different from the most recent closing price of a security and from the prices used by other investment companies to calculate their portfolios’ NAVs.

 

Fair Value Measurements:

 

Fair value is defined as the price that a Portfolio would receive to sell an asset, or would pay to transfer a liability, in an orderly transaction between market participants at the date of measurement. The Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures provisions of GAAP also establish a framework for measuring fair value, and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement that is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer, broadly, to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. Each investment’s fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the overall fair value measurement. The three-level hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

 

• Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

• Level 2 – other significant observable inputs (including unadjusted quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

• Level 3 – significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

 

Changes in valuation technique may result in transfer into or out of the current assigned level within the hierarchy.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in these securities.

 

The following table summarizes the valuation of the Portfolios’ investments by each fair value hierarchy level as of September 30, 2015:

Certain common stocks to which footnote (c) apply are included in Level 2 and were valued based on reference to similar securities which were trading on active markets.

In connection with the periodic implementation of fair value pricing procedures with respect to non-US securities, certain equity securities (but not securities valued based on reference to a similar security trading on an active market) in the International Equity, International Equity Select, International Equity Concentrated, International Strategic Equity, International Equity Advantage, International Small Cap Equity, Global Equity Select, Global Strategic Equity, Managed Equity Volatility, Emerging Markets Equity, Emerging Markets Core Equity, Developing Markets Equity, Emerging Markets Equity Advantage, Emerging Markets Equity Blend, Emerging Markets Multi Asset, Global Realty Equity, Global Listed Infrastructure, Enhanced Opportunities and Master Alternatives Portfolios can transfer from Level 1 to Level 2 as a result of fair value pricing procedure triggers being met and would revert to Level 1 when the fair value pricing procedure triggers are no longer met. A Portfolio recognizes all transfers between levels as though they were transferred at the beginning of the reporting period.

 

At September 30, 2015, securities valued at the following amounts were transferred from Level 1 to Level 2:

       
Portfolio   Amount  
International Equity  $3,618,063
