Dresdner RCM Small Cap Fund
The Fund's investment objective is to seek appreciation of capital by
investing, during normal market conditions, at least 80% of its
investments in equity and equity-related securities of small-sized
concerns. "Small-sized concerns" is defined as encompassing companies
whose equity securities have a total market capitalization of up to
approximately $1 billion at the time of acquisition. Under normal
market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 65% of its total
assets in equity and equity-related securities of such concerns.
Under normal market conditions, the Fund will not purchase the equity
and equity-related securities of companies whose equity securities
have a total market capitalization of greater than approximately $1.5
billion at the time of acquisition. The Fund will not be required to
sell portfolio securities solely on account of the fact that the
market capitalization of the issuer's equity securities has exceeded
$1.5 billion, or be prevented from purchasing or be required to sell
other portfolio securities as a result of such change. However, the
Fund will sell portfolio securities of an issuer whose market
capitalization, as of the end of the most recent calendar quarter,
exceeded $2.0 billion. Although the market capitalization of
portfolio securities at the time of purchase is used for compliance
purposes, the Fund anticipates that the average market capitalization
of the portfolio at market value generally will approximate the
average market capitalization of the securities that comprise the
Russell 2000 Index. As of the date hereof, the average market
capitalization of the Russell 2000 Index is $1.016 billion.
