(a)The Investment Adviser has agreed, through September 30, 2018, to make payments or waive management, administration, and other fees to limit the expenses of the Adviser Shares of the Fund so that the total annual operating expenses (exclusive of commission recapture, expense offset arrangements, acquired fund fees and expenses, and extraordinary expenses) do not exceed an annual rate of 1.35% of the Adviser Shares’ average daily net assets. This reimbursement arrangement may not be changed or terminated during this time period without approval of the Fund’s Board of Trustees and may be changed or terminated by the Investment Adviser at any time after September 30, 2018.
Example
This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in this Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, you
would pay the following expenses on a $10,000 investment, assuming (1) a 5% annual return, (2) the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same, (3) you redeem all of your shares at the end of the periods shown, and (4) the expense reimbursement arrangement for the Adviser Shares is not continued beyond one year.
  1 Year 3 Years 5 Years 10 Years
Fund Shares $113 $353 $612 $1,352
Inst. Shares $102 $318 $552 $1,225
Adviser Shares $137 $462 $809 $1,788
Portfolio Turnover
The Fund pays transaction costs, including 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 shares of the Fund are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in Annual Fund Operating Expenses or in the Example tables, affect the Fund’s performance.
For the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 40% of the average value of its whole portfolio.
Principal Investment Strategy
The Fund normally invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of foreign (including emerging markets) companies. The “equity securities” in which the Fund principally invests are common stocks, depositary receipts, preferred stocks, securities convertible into common stocks, and securities that carry the right to buy common stocks including rights and warrants.
The Fund will normally invest its assets in investments that are tied economically to a number of countries throughout the world. However, the Fund may invest a significant percentage of its assets in securities of issuers in a single country, a small number of countries, or a particular geographic region. The Fund may invest in companies of any size, including mid- and small-cap companies. Investments are selected primarily based on fundamental analysis of individual issuers and their potential in light of their financial condition, and market, economic, political, and regulatory conditions. Factors considered may include analysis of an issuer’s earnings, cash flows, competitive position, and management ability. Quantitative models that systematically evaluate an issuer’s valuation, price and earnings momentum, earnings quality, and other factors also may be considered.

 

Principal Risks
Any investment involves risk, and there is no assurance that the Fund’s objective will be achieved. The Fund is actively managed and the investment techniques and risk analyses used by the Fund’s manager(s) may not produce the desired results. As you consider an investment in the Fund, you also should take into account your tolerance for the daily fluctuations of the financial markets and whether you can afford to leave your money in the Fund for long periods of time to ride out down periods. As with other mutual funds, losing money is a risk of investing in the Fund.
The equity securities in the Fund’s portfolio are subject to stock market risk. A company’s stock price in general may decline over short or even extended periods, regardless of the success or failure of the company’s operations. Stock markets tend to run in cycles, with periods when stock prices generally go up and periods when stock prices generally go down. Equity securities tend to be more volatile than debt securities. In addition, the Fund invests primarily in foreign securities. There is a possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments in foreign securities will decrease because of unique risks, such as currency exchange-rate fluctuations; foreign market illiquidity; emerging market risk; increased price volatility; uncertain political conditions; exchange control regulations; foreign ownership limits; different accounting, reporting, and disclosure requirements; difficulties in obtaining legal judgments; and foreign withholding taxes. These risks are particularly heightened in this Fund because investments in emerging-market countries generally are more volatile than investments in developed markets. Emerging-market countries are less economically diverse and mature than more developed countries and tend to be politically less stable.
The Fund’s performance could be closely tied to the market, currency, economic, political, regulatory, geopolitical, or other conditions and developments in the countries or regions in which the Fund invests. As such, the Fund’s performance could be more volatile than the performance of more geographically-diversified funds.
The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any market capitalization and is subject to mid- and small-cap company risk, which is the greater risk of investing in smaller, less well-known companies, as opposed to investing in established companies with proven track records. Mid- and small-cap companies also may have limited product lines, markets, or financial resources. Securities of such companies may be less liquid and more volatile than securities of larger companies or the market in general and, therefore, may involve greater risk than investing in the securities of larger companies.
An investment in the Fund is not a deposit in USAA Federal Savings Bank, or any other bank, and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
Performance
The following bar chart and table are intended to help you understand the risks of investing in the Fund. The Fund has
three classes of shares: Fund Shares, Institutional Shares, and Adviser Shares. The bar chart provides some indication of the risks of investing in the Fund and illustrates the Fund Shares' class volatility and performance from year to year for each full calendar year over the past 10 years. The table shows how the average annual total returns of the share classes for the periods indicated compared to those of the Fund's benchmark index and an additional index of funds with similar investment objectives. Performance reflects any expense limitations in effect during the periods shown.
Remember, historical performance (before and after taxes) does not necessarily indicate what will happen in the future. For the Fund’s most current performance information, log on to usaa.com or call (800) 531-USAA (8722) or (210) 531-8722.

RISK/RETURN BAR CHART
Annual Returns for Periods Ended December 31

During the periods shown in the chart: Returns Quarter ended
Highest Quarter Return 20.90% September 30, 2009
Lowest Quarter Return -20.30% September 30, 2011
Year-to-Date Return 16.69% June 30, 2017
After-tax returns are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. In certain situations, the return after taxes on distributions and sale of fund shares may be higher than the other return amounts. A higher after-tax return may result when a capital loss occurs upon redemption and translates into an assumed tax deduction that benefits the shareholder. The actual after-tax returns depend on your tax situation and may differ from those shown. If you hold your shares through a tax-deferred arrangement, such as an individual retirement account (IRA) or 401(k) plan, the after-tax returns shown in the table are not relevant to you. Please note that after-tax returns are only shown for the Fund Shares and may differ for each share class.
