Page 1 of 7 Global Equity Select ADR Select UMA MANAGER'S INVESTMENT PROCESS RISK CONSIDERATIONS PORTFOLIO'S ALLOCATION HISTORY (%) ⁺ • Identify value universe through proprietary screening process Investing in securities entails risks, including: International 06/21 03/21 12/20 09/20 • Fundamental analysis of stocks including accounting validation investing should be considered one component of a complete U.S. Stocks 50 51 52 54 and diversified investment program. Investing in foreign markets • Select stocks with low price/book, low price/cash flow, high return on ADRs 45 44 45 43 equity and assets entails greater risks than those normally associated with 4 5 3 3 • Lazard will sell securities when they believe they have become fairly domestic markets such as foreign political, currency, economic Cash/Cash Equivalents valued, fundamentals change, or more attractive opportunities exist and market risks. Equity securities' prices may fluctuate in response to specific situations for each company, industry, market conditions and general economic environment. Companies paying dividends can reduce or cut payouts at any time. Strategies that invest a large percentage of assets in only one industry sector (or in only a few sectors) are more vulnerable to price fluctuation than portfolios that diversify among a broad range of sectors. Growth investing does not guarantee a profit or eliminate risk. The stocks of these companies can have relatively high valuations. Because of these high valuations, an investment in a growth stock can be more risky than an investment in a company with more modest growth expectations. Value investing does not guarantee a profit or eliminate risk. Not all companies whose stocks are considered to be value stocks are able to turn their business around or successfully employ corrective strategies which would result in stock prices that do not rise as initially expected. Bonds rated below investment grade may have speculative characteristics and present significant risks beyond those of other securities, including greater credit risk and price volatility in the secondary market. Investors should be careful to consider these risks alongside their individual circumstances, objectives and risk tolerance before investing in high-yield bonds. If a strategy expects to hold a concentrated portfolio of a limited number of securities, it should be noted that a decline in the value of these investments would cause the portfolio’s overall value to decline to a greater degree than that of a less concentrated portfolio.
