Performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. Shares may be worth more or less than original cost when redeemed. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance shown. The MOP returns take into account the 5.5% maximum initial sales charge. Please note, all performance is cumulative since inception. A redemption fee of 2% may apply to shares redeemed or exchanged within 30 days of acquisition. Performance shown does not reflect any applicable redemption fees and would be lower if it did. Redemption fees are paid to and retained by the Fund and are not sales charges.

 

The reorganization of Allianz RCM Global EcoTrendsSM Fund, a closed-end interval fund, into an open-end mutual fund was approved by the Fund's shareholders on August 20, 2008. This transition took place on September 2, 2008.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses of this Fund carefully before investing.

Please read this prospectus carefully before you invest or send money.

Performance assumes reinvestment of any dividend and capital gain distributions, but does not reflect the deduction of taxes that a shareholder would pay on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Index performance comparison begins on 1/31/07.

 

The Fund may use derivative strategies for investment or hedging purposes. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Portfolios investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in those instruments.

 

The Fund is non-diversified and may focus its investments in a small group of companies or industries. The companies in which the Fund invests may have limited operating histories and/or small market capitalizations. The Fund's substantial exposure to non-U.S. securities, including emerging markets securities, also involves special risks, including political and economic risk and the risk of currency fluctuations; these risks may be enhanced in emerging markets.

 

The FTSE ET 50 Index is comprised of the 50 largest environmental technology companies by market capitalization (approximately $650 million to $9 billion) from a global universe of 400 pure-play environmental technology companies. It is not possible to invest directly in the ET 50 Index.

 

^The Lipper Category returns are calculated by Lipper Inc., a Reuters Company, which is a nationally recognized organization that compares the performance of mutual funds with similar investment objectives. The Category returns represent the average performance of included funds. They are based on total return performance, with capital gains and dividends reinvested, with annual operating expenses deducted, but without including front- or back-end sales charges.

 

Growth of $10,000 results are calculated at NAV and assume that all dividend and capital gain distributions were reinvested. They do not take into account sales charges or the effect of taxes. Results are not indicative of future performance.
