While infla- tion is passed on annually to its prices and regulatory asset base, any hike in real bond yields in Italy is reflected every other year through an adjustment to the allowed return. This feature, instituted at the time of the sovereign crises in 2011, helps largely exclude Italian regulated utilities such as Terna and Snam from the “bond proxy” category.

The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. 3 This yield reflects the interest earned by the average investor in the Fund after deducting the Fund’s expenses during the most recent 30-day period. A negative 30-Day SEC Yield results when accrued expenses of the past 30 days exceed the income collected during those 30 days. Unsubsidized SEC Yield represents what a fund’s 30-Day SEC Yield would have been, had no fee waiver or expense reimbursement been in place over the period.

Understanding Investment Risk Equity securities will fluctuate in price; the value of your investment will thus fluctuate, and this may result in a loss. Securities in certain non-domestic countries may be less liquid, more volatile, and less subject to governmental supervision than in one’s home market. The values of these securities may be affected by changes in currency rates, application of a country’s specific tax laws, changes in government administration, and economic and monetary policy. Emerging markets securities carry special risks, such as less developed or less efficient trading markets, a lack of company information, and differ- ing auditing and legal standards. The securities markets of emerging markets countries can be extremely volatile; performance can also be influenced by political, social, and economic factors affecting companies in emerging markets countries. Securities and instruments of infrastructure companies are more susceptible to adverse economic or regulatory occurrences affecting their industries. Infrastructure companies may be subject to a variety of factors that may adversely affect their business or operations, including additional costs, competi- tion, regulatory implications, and certain other factors. The Portfolio invests in stocks believed by Lazard to be undervalued, but that may not realize their perceived value for extended periods of time or may never realize their perceived value. The stocks in which the Portfolio invests may respond differently to market and other developments than other types of stocks. The Portfolio seeks to substantially hedge foreign currency exposure back to the US dollar. The Portfolio’s total foreign currency exposure may not be fully hedged at all times. Irrespective of any foreign currency exposure hedging, the Portfolio may experience a decline in the value of its portfolio securi- ties, in US dollar terms, due solely to fluctuations in currency exchange rates. Derivative transactions may reduce returns or increase volatility and a small investment in certain derivatives could have a potentially large impact on the Portfolio’s performance. Because the Portfolio invests in a relatively smaller number of issuers than other investment portfolios, its net asset value could be more susceptible to adverse effects of any single corporate, economic, political, regulatory, or other occurrence.
