VAN KAMPEN AMERICAN CAPITAL GLOBAL EQUITY FUND
SUPPLEMENT DATED MARCH 9, 1998 TO THE PROSPECTUS DATED
SEPTEMBER 28, 1997, AS PREVIOUSLY SUPPLEMENTED ON JANUARY 2, 1998
The Trustees of the Fund have approved an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization between the Fund and Morgan Stanley Global Equity Allocation Fund
(the "Global Equity Allocation Fund"), a series of Morgan Stanley Fund, Inc.
advised by Van Kampen American Capital Investment Advisory Corp., providing for
the transfer of assets and liabilities of the Fund to the Global Equity
Allocation Fund in exchange for shares of common stock of the Global Equity
Allocation Fund at its net asset value per share (the "Reorganization").
The Reorganization is subject to approval by the shareholders of the Fund.
Further details of the proposed Reorganization will be contained in the proxy
statement/prospectus expected to be mailed to shareholders in 1998.
The Global Equity Allocation Fund's net assets as of December 31, 1997 were
approximately $213 million. Its investment objective is to seek to provide
long-term capital appreciation by investing in equity securities of U.S. and
non-U.S. issuers in accordance with country weightings determined by the
Sub-Adviser and with stock selection within each country designed to replicate a
broad market index. The Fund and the Global Equity Allocation Fund have similar
investment objectives, policies and practices, and are managed by the same
portfolio management team.
The Fund will continue its normal operations prior to the Reorganization.
