sovereign and corporate bonds. The fund invests in countries

and growing opportunities in certain local markets. |

| The emerging-market sector of the
fixed-income market has grown tremendously over the last
decade. It has been a top-performing asset class for
the past several years. As countries develop their economic
and political infrastructure and become more integrated
in global capital markets, their government and corporate
securities become more attractive investment vehicles. |

Global credit market
volatility caused emerging market spreads to widen by
approximately 70 basis points over comparable Treasuries
in the first quarter of 2008. Concerns about the US subprime
mortgage market and its potential impact on the US financial
system and economic growth continued to weigh on all
credit markets. Despite aggressive emergency interest
rate cuts and liquidity measures implemented by the Federal
Reserve, the market remains dependent on global risk
sentiment. Local currency bonds also underperformed US
Treasuries, as inflation concerns across all regions
caused a sell-off in local rates. Emerging market currencies
rallied, however, supported by more hawkish central banks
and general US dollar weakness.

which are contained in this document; read the prospectus

offers different rewards and challenges from investing
in domestic securities, including changes in exchange rates,
political changes, and differences in reporting standards,
and for emerging-market securities, higher volatility.
