Past
performance is no guarantee of future results. Each Fund’s returns quoted on this
website represent past performance after all expenses. Economic and market
conditions change, and both will cause investment return, principal value, and
yield to fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth
more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or
higher than the performance data quoted. For performance information current to
the most recent month-end, call 1-800-762-6814 (for individual investors) or 1-800-498-1351
(for financial advisors and institutional investors).
The Domini
Social Equity Fund Class A shares, Domini PacAsia Social Equity Fund Class A
shares, and Domini International Social Equity Fund Class A shares are each
subject to a front-end sales charge of up to 4.75%. Each Domini Fund charges a
2.00% redemption fee on sales or exchanges of shares made less than 30 days
after the settlement of purchase or acquisition through exchange, with certain
exceptions. See the applicable prospectus for further
information.
The
performance tables included on this website do not reflect the deduction of
taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or the redemption of
Fund shares. Total return is based on each Fund’s net asset values and assumes
all dividends and capital gains were reinvested. An investment in any of the
Domini Funds is not a bank deposit and is not insured. You may lose money.
Certain fees payable by the Funds were waived during the period, and each
Fund’s average annual total returns would have been lower had these not been
waived.
The Domini Social Bond Fund is not insured and is subject to
market risks, including interest rate and credit risks. During periods of
rising interest rates, bond funds can lose value. The Domini Social Bond Fund
currently holds a large percentage of its portfolio in mortgage-backed
securities. During periods of falling interest rates, mortgage-backed
securities may prepay the principal due, which may lower the Fund’s return by
causing it to reinvest at lower interest rates. Some of the Domini Social Bond
Fund's community development investments may be unrated and carry greater
credit risks than its other investments.
Investing
internationally involves special risks, such as currency fluctuations, social
and economic instability, differing securities regulations and accounting
standards, limited public information, possible changes in taxation, and
periods of illiquidity.
Please note that
whether a fund is load or no-load, certain fees and expenses apply to
a continued investment, and are described in each Fund's prospectus. The
composition of the Funds' portfolios are subject to change.
The
Standard & Poor's (S&P) 500 Index, the MSCI Europe Index, the MSCI EAFE
Index and the MSCI All Country Asia Pacific Index are unmanaged indexes of
common stocks. The Barclays Capital Intermediate Aggregate Index is an
unmanaged index of intermediate- duration fixed-income securities. Investors
cannot invest directly in an Index.
