Rule 497(e)
File Nos. 33-34841 and 811-6011
The Montgomery Funds
Supplement dated November 18, 1999 to
Prospectus dated October 31, 1999
For Shareholders in the Montgomery Equity Income Fund and the Montgomery
International Small Cap Fund only:
The Montgomery Equity Income Fund and the Montgomery International Small Cap
Fund will close to new shareholder accounts on November 30, 1999. Shareholders
who own shares of these Funds when they close may continue to purchase shares in
their existing accounts after they close. A shareholder, however, may not
exchange shares from another Montgomery Fund for shares of one of these Funds
unless that shareholder has an open account for the Fund.
Additionally, the Manager has proposed to reorganize the Montgomery Equity
Income Fund into the Montgomery U.S. Asset Allocation Fund, and to reorganize
the Montgomery International Small Cap Fund into the Montgomery International
Growth Fund. A Notice of a Special Meeting of Shareholers and a proxy statement
seeking shareholder approval for each of these reorganizations will be sent to
shareholders in the near future.
