Fund Description

The Fund has a non-fundamental policy to invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the value of its net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes in emerging market companies. The Fund principally invests in equity securities, including common stocks and preferred stocks, of companies economically tied to emerging market countries and in depositary receipts representing shares in such companies. These companies are referred to as “emerging market companies.” The Fund considers emerging market countries to include every country in the world except Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States. The Fund’s securities are denominated principally in foreign currencies and are typically held outside the U.S. The Fund invests in large, medium and small capitalization companies. A portion of the Fund’s net assets may be “illiquid” investments. In determining if a security is economically tied to an emerging market country, the Fund generally looks to the “country of risk” of the issuer as determined by a third party such as Bloomberg L.P.
Russell Investment Management, LLC (“RIM”) provides or oversees the provision of all investment advisory and portfolio management services for the Fund. The Fund is advised by RIM and multiple money managers unaffiliated with RIM pursuant to a multi-style (e.g., growth, value, market-oriented, defensive and/or dynamic) and multi-manager approach. RIM may change the Fund's asset allocation at any time. The Fund’s money managers have non-discretionary asset management assignments pursuant to which they provide a model portfolio to RIM representing their investment recommendations, based upon which RIM purchases and sells securities for the Fund. 
For Fund assets not allocated to money manager strategies, RIM utilizes quantitative and/or rules-based processes and qualitative analysis to assess Fund characteristics and invest in securities and instruments which provide the desired exposures. RIM may use strategies based on indexes. RIM also manages the Fund's cash balances.
The Fund usually, but not always, pursues a strategy to be fully invested by exposing all or a portion of its cash to the performance of certain markets by purchasing equity securities and/or derivatives, which typically include index futures contracts and forward currency contracts. The Fund may invest in derivative instruments and may use derivatives to take both long and short positions. The Fund may invest in synthetic foreign equity securities, which may be referred to as international warrants, local access products, participation notes or low exercise price warrants. International
warrants are a form of derivative security issued by foreign banks that either give holders the right to buy or sell an underlying security or securities for a particular price or give holders the right to receive cash payment relating to the value of the underlying security or securities. Local access products are similar to options in that they are exercisable by the holder for an underlying security or the value of that security, but are generally exercisable over a longer term than typical options. The Fund may also invest in equity linked notes, which are notes whose return is tied to a single stock or a basket of stocks. Generally, upon the maturity of the note, the holder receives a return of principal based on the capital appreciation of the underlying linked securities.
The Fund may at times seek to protect a portion of its investments against adverse currency exchange rate changes by purchasing forward currency contracts and may engage in currency transactions for speculative purposes. The Fund may invest in other investment companies and pooled investment vehicles. Please refer to the “Investment Objective and Investment Strategies” section in the Fund's Prospectus for further information.
