All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document Dreyfus International Stock Index Fund The Fund A LETTER FROM THE CEO OF DREYFUS Dear Shareholder: We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus International Stock Index Fund, covering the six-month period from November 1, 2016 through April 30, 2017. For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as general market perspectives, we provide a Discussion of Fund Performance on the pages that follow. Stocks advanced solidly but higher-quality bonds lost a degree of value over the reporting period amid heightened market volatility stemming from various economic and political developments. After giving back a portion of their previous gains due to uncertainty in advance of U.S. elections, equity markets rallied to a series of new highs in the wake of the election’s unexpected outcome as investors revised their expectations for U.S. fiscal, regulatory, and tax policies. Generally strong economic data and corporate earnings continued to support stock prices over the first four months of 2017. In the bond market, yields of U.S. government securities moved higher and prices fell in response to two short-term interest-rate hikes and rising longer-term rates, while lower-rated corporate-backed bonds continued to advance in anticipation of a more business-friendly market environment. Some asset classes and industry groups seem likely to continue to benefit from a changing economic and geopolitical landscape, while others probably will face challenges as conditions evolve. Consequently, selectivity seems likely to be an important determinant of investment success in the months ahead. As always, we encourage you to discuss the implications of our observations with your financial advisor. Thank you for your continued confidence and support. Sincerely, Mark D. Santero Chief Executive Officer The Dreyfus Corporation May 15, 2017 2 DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE For the period from November 1, 2016 through April 30, 2017, as provided by Thomas J. Durante, CFA, Karen Q. Wong, CFA, and Richard A. Brown, CFA, Portfolio Managers Market and Fund Performance Overview For the six-month period ended April 30, 2017, Dreyfus International Stock Index Fund’s Class I shares produced a total return of 11.30%, and its Investor shares returned 11.13%.1 This compares with an 11.47% total return for the fund’s benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index (the “Index”), during the same period.2 International stocks gained ground due to improving global economic data and expectations of more business-friendly policies from a new presidential administration in the United States. The difference in returns between the fund and the Index was primarily the result of transaction costs and operating expenses that are not reflected in the Index’s results. As of August 31, 2016, existing fund shares were renamed Investor shares and Class I shares were added as a new share class of the fund. The Fund’s Investment Approach The fund seeks to match the performance of the Index and to pursue its goal, the fund is generally fully invested in stocks included in the Index and in futures whose performance is tied to certain countries included in the Index. The fund generally invests in all stocks included in the Index. The fund's investments are selected to match the benchmark composition along individual name, country and industry weighting, and other benchmark characteristics. Under these circumstances, the fund maintains approximately the same weighting for each stock as the Index. The Index is an unmanaged, free float-adjusted market capitalization-weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed markets, excluding the United States and Canada. Each stock in the Index is weighted by its float-adjusted market capitalization. Improved Economic Outlook Bolstered International Stocks Despite the eroding effects of weakening foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar over much of the reporting period, international equities generally fared well in anticipation of higher levels of global economic growth stemming in part from more business-friendly fiscal, regulatory, and tax policies under a newly elected U.S. government. Although the Index declined relatively mildly in the immediate wake of the election’s widely unexpected outcome in November, improved investor sentiment and expectations of improved global economic growth later sparked a market rally that persisted through the end of the reporting period. In addition, central banks in Europe and Japan have maintained accommodative monetary policies, which are expected to provide further support to international economies that already have shown signs of recovering from an extended period of sluggishness. In Europe, financial markets were further buoyed in the spring by reassuringly mainstream election results in the Netherlands. Japanese equities benefited from a return to positive bond yields, which supported earnings for the country’s financial institutions. 3 Copyright © 2017 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued) Financial and Industrial Stocks Led Markets Higher The Index’s gains over the reporting period were driven by especially strong results from the financial sector, as higher interest rates supported lending margins in Japan; Australian banks benefited from a rebounding housing market and higher commodity prices; and banks in the United Kingdom, Spain, and France recovered from previous weakness. Insurance and capital markets companies gained value amid rising financial markets, and investment banks profited from rising bond issuance volumes. The industrials sector also fared quite well, as machinery producers and diversified conglomerates climbed due to expectations of greater global economic growth. In addition, automobile manufacturers and shipbuilders advanced in anticipation of rising demand from rebounding emerging markets, and aerospace companies saw increased global demand for aircraft. In the consumer discretionary sector, textile and luxury goods purveyors rose amid optimism regarding economic conditions in the United States, Europe, and the emerging markets, while hotels, restaurants, and leisure companies benefited from higher consumer confidence and spending.

This publication lists the name and value of each investment that TRS held in its six investment programs at the closing of the fiscal year. Cash, receivables, and collateral from securities-lending transactions are assets of TRS but not of the investment programs; therefore, they are not included in this report. TRS’ investments are described briefly below: The Pension Fund consists of U.S. and international equities and fixed-income instruments, with smaller allocations made to private equity and real estate investments. It contains the City’s contributions toward TRS members’ retirement allowances (pension reserves) and members’ contributions to the Qualified Pension Plan (QPP). It also includes the assets of the Fixed Return Fund, an investment option for members that provides a guaranteed rate of return; the rate is set by the New York State Legislature in accordance with applicable laws. The Diversified Equity Fund invests primarily in U.S. equities. The fund may also invest in international equities and other investments that may exhibit fixed-income characteristics. The objective is to achieve a rate of return comparable to the return of the broad equity market. The Stable-Value Fund invested in Guaranteed Investment Contracts (GICs), wrapped fixed-income securities, and other stable-value investment vehicles.
