Objective

The Managers AMG Systematic Value Fund’s investment objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation.

Fund Focus

The Managers AMG Systematic Value Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in common and preferred stocks of medium- and large-capitalization U.S. companies that, at the time of purchase, are within the range of capitalizations of companies in the Russell 1000® Index. Systematic Financial Management selects stocks of companies that it believes are undervalued relative to a company’s historic and expected earnings, regardless of sector.

Systematic seeks to identify attractively valued companies already exhibiting evidence of a sustainable and fundamental turnaround before other investors recognize this shift and adjust their earnings expectations.

Disclosure

Investors should carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses before investing. For this and other information, please call 800.835.3879 or download a free prospectus. Read it carefully before investing or sending money.

The performance shown represents past performance and is not a guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. The investment return and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. From time to time the advisor has waived fees or reimbursed expenses, which may have resulted in higher returns. The listed returns and yields on the Fund are net of expenses. Unlike the Fund, the index listed is unmanaged, is not available for investment, and does not incur expenses.

Class C shares convert to an equal dollar value of Class A shares at the end of the tenth year after purchase.

Annual expense ratios as of 07/01/2009. The Fund's Investment Manager has contractually agreed, through July 1, 2010, to limit Fund operating expenses. The net expense ratio reflects this limitation, while the gross expense ratio does not. Please refer to the Fund's prospectus for additional information on the Fund's expenses.
