The value and/or returns of a portfolio will fluctuate with market and economic conditions.
Different investment styles tend to shift in and out of favor depending upon market and economic conditions, as well as investor sentiment. A fund may outperform or underperform other funds that employ a different investment style.
Although the fund's performance has historically benefited from investments in initial public offerings (IPOs), future IPO exposure likely will be limited by the fund's investment process.
International investing involves special risk considerations, including economic and political conditions, inflation rates and currency fluctuations.
Please see the prospectus for details about sales charges.
The gross expense ratio is the fund's total annual operating costs, expressed as a percentage of the fund's average net assets for a given time period. It is gross of any fee waivers or expense reimbursement. The net expense ratio is the expense ratio after the application of any waivers or reimbursement. This is the actual ratio that investors paid during the fund's most recent fiscal year. Please see the prospectus for more information.

Prior to doing so, we will notify you and give you 90 days to meet the minimum or reinstate your automatic monthly investment plan.
Sustainability focuses on meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. There are many different approaches to Sustainability, with motives varying from positive societal impact, to wanting to achieve competitive financial results, or both. Methods of sustainable investing include active share ownership, integration of ESG factors, thematic investing, impact investing and exclusion among others.
The portfolio managers use a variety of analytical research tools and techniques to help them make decisions about buying or holding issuers that meet their investment criteria and selling issuers that do not. In addition to fundamental financial metrics, the portfolio managers may also consider environmental, social, and/or governance (ESG) data to evaluate an issuer's sustainability characteristics. However, the portfolio managers may not consider ESG data with respect to every investment decision and, even when such data is considered, they may conclude that other attributes of an investment outweigh sustainability-related considerations when making decisions. Sustainability-related characteristics may or may not impact the performance of an issuer or the strategy, and the strategy may perform differently if it did not consider ESG data. Issuers with strong sustainability-related characteristics may or may not outperform issuers with weak sustainability-related characteristics. ESG data used by the portfolio managers often lacks standardization, consistency, and transparency, and may not be available, complete, or accurate. Not all American Century investment strategies incorporate ESG data into the process.
