The performance quoted represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Net-of-fees performance is measured from inception. Mutual fund performance fluctuates and currently may be lower than stated. An investor may obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end online at www.LazardAssetManagement.com. The investment return and principal value of the Portfolio will fluctuate; an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Returns of certain share classes reflect reimbursement of expenses as described in the prospectus. Had expenses not been reimbursed, returns would have been lower and the expense ratio would have been higher.

The MSCI All Country World ex-US Index (ACWI ex-US) is a free-float-adjusted, market capitalization–weighted index designed to measure the performance of developed and emerging equity markets outside the United States.

The index is unmanaged and has no fees. One cannot invest directly in an index.

Performance for periods shorter than one year has not been annualized. Performance presented net of fees. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.

Beta is a relative measure of the sensitivity of a fund's return to changes in the benchmark's return. The beta of the fund versus its benchmark is the amount (and direction) the fund has historically moved when the benchmark moved by one unit.

Standard deviation measures the dispersion or "spread" of individual observations around their mean. Standard deviation of returns measures a fund's historical volatility, where a higher number is evidence of greater volatility (i.e., higher risk).

Effective Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of a fund’s value to changes in interest rates and accounts for any option features embedded in the fund’s holdings.

Effective Maturity is a measure of the average expected maturity of a fund’s holdings and accounts for actual maturities as well as expected early redemptions.

Unless otherwise noted, characteristics are trailing 12 months.

Dividend yield (%) is calculated by dividing dividends paid by the Fund’s current holdings over the trailing 12 months by the Fund’s NAV.

Morningstar Disclaimer

1 As of 30-April-2025. The Morningstar Rating™ for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product 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. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total return, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total return. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods. Ratings do not take into account the effects of sales charges and loads.

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 differing 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 these countries.
The success of the Portfolio’s investment strategy depends largely upon the effectiveness of the Investment Manager’s quantitative model. A quantitative model, such as the risk and other models used by the Investment Manager requires adherence to a systematic, disciplined process. The Investment Manager’s ability to monitor and, if necessary, adjust its quantitative model could be adversely affected by various factors including incorrect or outdated market and other data inputs. Factors that affect a security’s value can change over time, and these changes may not be reflected in the quantitative model. In addition, factors used in quantitative analysis and the weight placed on those factors may not be predictive of a security’s value.
The Portfolio’s performance will be influenced by political, social, and economic factors affecting the non-US countries and companies in which the Portfolio invests. Non-US securities carry special risks, such as less developed or less efficient trading markets, political instability, a lack of company information, differing auditing and legal standards, and, potentially, less liquidity.
Small and mid-cap companies carry additional risks because their earnings tend to be less predictable, their share prices more volatile, and their securities less liquid than larger, more established companies. The shares of small and mid-cap companies tend to trade less frequently than those of larger companies, which can have an adverse effect on the pricing of these securities and on the ability to sell these securities when the Investment Manager deems it appropriate.
