VAN KAMPEN AMERICAN CAPITAL
ENTERPRISE FUND
SUPPLEMENT DATED NOVEMBER 2, 1995, TO THE
STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DATED AUGUST 7, 1995.
The section of the Statement of Additional Information captioned "Fund
Performance" is hereby supplemented as follows:
Currently, the Fund invests approximately half of its assets in stocks with
a market capitalization of less than $5 billion and invests the other half
in stocks with a market capitalization of more than $5 billion. In recent
years, these types of stock have outperformed many other segments of the
stock market. Mid-cap stocks generally offer the potential for higher
earnings and more rapid growth than large company stocks, and less risk
than small company stocks. In addition, the Fund attempts to remain fully
invested and diversified across many industries to achieve consistent
long-term performance.
Since the Fund's commencement of investment operations on January 7, 1954,
the world has experienced a number of significant political and economic
events. For example, in 1971, there were wage and price freezes to attempt
to control inflation. In 1973 the dollar was devalued and the OPEC oil
embargo was in effect. 1976 saw sweeping tax law changes, and in 1979 the
CPI rose over 13%, it's largest rise in 33 years. In 1982, the country was
in a recession, in 1985 the U.S. deficit became the largest in the world
and the U.S. was now a debtor nation. 1987 saw the stock market crash. The
Persian Gulf War began in 1991, and the Dow Jones Industrial Average hit a
record high of 4000 in 1995.
From time to time marketing materials may provide a portfolio manager
update on the Fund or discuss general economic conditions. The top 10
holdings of the Fund may also be listed in marketing pieces.
