Calamos Evolving World Growth Mutual Fund Overview

The fund offers an active, risk-managed strategy to access growth opportunities in emerging markets. The fund invests in emerging market-domiciled and developed market-domiciled companies with significant revenue exposures attributable to emerging markets.

Key Features

  • Conducts research across the capital structure and utilizes Calamos' experience in convertible securities to dynamically manage the risk profile.
  • Identifies durable secular themes that provide a tailwind for sustainable growth and a franchise premium.
  • Emphasizes countries enacting structural reforms and improving economic freedoms, which we believe enhances growth prospects and mitigates risk.

Portfolio Fit

With its focus on risk management, the fund can serve as a long-term emerging market allocation.

Important Fund Information

10k Performance is for the Fund's Class C shares at net asset value and does not include the Fund's maximum level-load sales charge of 1.00%. Had it been included, the Fund's return would have been lower. Results are before taxes on fund distributions and assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Index data shown is from 8/31/08, since comparative index data is available only for full monthly periods. Source: Calamos Investments

Performance data quoted represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Please refer to Important Risk Information. The principal value and return of an investment will fluctuate so that your shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance reflected at NAV does not include the Fund's maximum front-end sales load of 4.75%. Had it been included, the Fund's return would have been lower.

Index data shown reflects full month periods only. If share class inception date is on or before the 15th of the month, the index calculation inception date begins on the first day of that month. If share class inception date is after the 15th of the month, the index calculation inception date begins on the first day of the following month.

The MSCI Emerging Markets Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure equity market performance of emerging markets. The index is calculated on a total return basis, which includes reinvestment of gross dividends before deduction of withholding taxes.

Unmanaged index returns, unlike fund returns, do not reflect fees, expenses or sales charges. Investors cannot invest directly in an index.

Average annual total return measures net investment income and capital gain or loss from portfolio investments as an annualized average. All performance shown assumes reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions.

The funds' gross expense ratios as of the prospectus dated 3/1/2024 are as follows: A Shares 1.63%, C Shares 2.38% and I Shares 1.38%.

Class I shares are offered primarily for direct investment by investors through certain tax-exempt retirement plans and by institutional clients, provided such plans or clients have assets of at least $1 million. For eligibility requirements and other available share classes see the prospectus and other Fund documents at www.calamos.com.
