Fund Summary 
The investment seeks long-term growth of capital. The fund normally invests at least 80% of assets in securities of Japanese issuers, and other investments that are tied economically to Japan, with smaller market capitalizations (which, for purposes of this fund, are those companies with market capitalizations similar to companies in the Russell/Nomura Mid-Small Cap Index or the Japanese Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations Index). It potentially invests in securities of Japanese issuers with larger market capitalizations.
