Dear Shareholder:
Global equity markets have had a strong nine months in 2013, with the MSCI World Total Return Index returning 17.29%.
Developed equity markets were generally up across the globe, driven by modestly improving growth and supportive policy measures. Most notable was Japan where Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, fresh off a comprehensive election victory, pushed forward with an economic platform consisting of monetary and fiscal stimulus, along with structural reforms, that became known as “Abenomics.” The monetary policy impact of Abenomics began early in the year, when the Bank of Japan (“BOJ”) adopted a 2% inflation target and Abe nominated Haruhiko Kuroda, a vocal advocate of monetary stimulus, to be the new Governor of the BOJ. Japanese equities rallied strongly in yen terms, while the yen weakened considerably.
Europe equity performance has been uneven year to date. First quarter performance was lackluster across European equity markets. Drivers included a banking crisis in Cyprus that led to renewed concerns about financial stability across the continent, weak Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) numbers in Germany and France, and uncertainty surrounding the Italian elections. However, the second quarter saw relief over the resolution of most of these issues. Economic statistics improved in the third quarter, notably in peripheral countries such as Spain, leading to stronger performance from European equity markets.
Growth in China slowed through the first half of the year, and the second quarter was particularly bad for markets with close ties to China. Economic activity statistics slowed in April and May and Chinese officials indicated that the government might be comfortable accepting a lower longer-term growth rate. Moreover, a relatively hawkish People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”) made matters worse by allowing tighter liquidity conditions in response to fears of a credit bubble. China is the world’s largest consumer of many commodities, and commodity prices declined with slowing Chinese growth. Growth statistics in China started to improve in August, leading to better performance in the third quarter.
The AQR Global Equity Fund Class I shares (the “Fund”) returned 17.44% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, outperforming its benchmark index by 0.15%. The Fund is actively managed, and it seeks to outperform its benchmark in three ways: by selecting stocks within each country and by using futures and forwards contracts to over-and under-weight countries and currencies relative to the benchmark. Details on each of the strategies are provided below.
The stock selection strategies outperformed in 2013, led mainly by strong returns in the US and Europe strategies. Returns in Japan, Canada and other regions were also positive.
Industry-relative valuation signals and momentum signals across industries drove most of the outperformance in the US, notably in the second quarter. Valuation across

industries and stability signals detracted modestly from returns in the country. In Europe, industry-relative valuation signals and momentum signals across industries drove much of the outperformance, while stability and management signaling contributed negatively to returns.
Sector positioning for the overall strategy contributed positively to the fund’s performance this year. Gains from an average net overweight position in healthcare offset losses from an average net underweight position in consumer discretionary. Our industry-neutral bets for the overall strategy also outperformed this year, notably within the information technology and financial sectors.
Tactically, we are slightly overweight value in the US due to positive momentum of value stocks. We are underweight value in Europe due to a tightening of value spreads in the region and are maintaining our long-term target weight to value in Japan.
The country selection strategy detracted from fund performance in 2013, with losses in the first and third quarters outweighing gains in the second quarter. Overall, gains to our momentum theme were not enough to offset losses to our valuation theme.
The largest detractor was our underweight position in U.S. equities, which detracted from performance in the first and second quarters before contributing significantly in the third quarter. We began the year underweight U.S. equities due to expensive valuations and weak price momentum. U.S. markets rallied early in the year on a resolution to the “fiscal cliff” issue, and continued the rally in the second quarter when U.S. economic data pointed to a stronger recovery than most other developed markets. However, U.S. markets lagged in the third quarter over fears of tapering by the U.S. Federal Reserve, possible military engagement in Syria and concerns about political impasse around the federal budget and debt ceiling. Another significant detractor was our overweight position in Hong Kong in the first and second quarters as Chinese growth slowed.
Our overweight position in Japan was the most significant contributor. Japan had the strongest performing equity market in local currency terms in 2013, driven by optimism over the ability of “Abenomics” to end deflation and reignite growth in the Japanese economy. Our underweight Canada position was another major contributor. Canadian equities underperformed throughout the year, weighed down by weaker commodity prices and concerns over a potential housing bubble.
Our largest overweight positions at the end of the third quarter were in Japan, Spain and France, and our largest underweights were in the U.S. and Canada. We like Japan because of positive price momentum and improving fundamentals, in particular bullish revisions to analysts’ earnings estimates for Japanese companies and a weaker yen. We are overweight Spanish equities due to improving fundamentals and supportive price momentum, and we also like French equities due to attractive valuations and supportive price momentum.
The currency selection strategy detracted from fund performance in 2013, with weak performance in the second and third quarters following a strong first quarter. Our valuation and momentum strategies provided positive returns, but not enough to overcome negative returns to interest-rate-related signals.
The largest contributor was the Japanese yen, which started the year as our largest underweight position due to expensive valuations, negative price momentum and bearish investor sentiment. This position profited in the first quarter when the announcement of a 2% inflation target and appointment of new Bank of Japan Governor Kuroda furthered expectations of extraordinary easing measures resulting in a

continuation of the slide in the yen that took place towards the end of 2012. The significant decline of the yen reduced the overvaluation of the Japanese currency and contributed to improving economic fundamentals leading us to an overweight position in the yen later in the year. This contributed to returns late in the second quarter before detracting somewhat in the third quarter.
The largest detractor was the Norwegian krone, which started the year as our largest overweight position. We found the krone attractive due to relatively high levels of carry, supportive price momentum and bullish investor sentiment. The krone underperformed early in the year due to worsening Eurozone sentiment, and continued to underperform throughout the year on weaker domestic growth and the surprising adoption of an easing bias by the central bank. Our underweight to the New Zealand dollar (“kiwi”) also detracted, with losses most notably occurring in the first and third quarters. The kiwi outperformed in the first quarter on the back of strong economic data from the region. In the third quarter, the New Zealand dollar was supported by continued strong growth statistics as well as by the adoption of a tightening bias by the Reserve Bank of New Zealand.
Our largest overweight positions as of the end of the third quarter were in the Japanese yen, euro and Norwegian krone, while we are most underweight the British pound, Canadian dollar and U.S. dollar. We like the yen due to attractive interest-rate-related signals, Japan’s strong equity market performance and positive investor sentiment. We are overweight the euro because of its attractive valuation, improving fundamentals and supportive price momentum, while we like the krone due to high levels of carry and other bullish signals related to interest rates. We find the British pound unattractive due to interest-rate-related signals, and find the Canadian dollar unattractive due to expensive valuation, poor momentum and bearish sentiment. We are also underweight the U.S. dollar due to poor fundamental momentum and bearish interest-rate-related signals.

Most notable was Japan where Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, fresh off a comprehensive election victory, pushed forward with an economic platform consisting of monetary and fiscal stimulus, along with structural reforms, that became known as “Abenomics.” The monetary policy impact of Abenomics began early in the year, when the Bank of Japan adopted a 2% inflation target and Abe nominated Haruhiko Kuroda, a vocal advocate of monetary stimulus, to be the new Governor of the BOJ. Japanese equities rallied strongly in yen terms, while the yen weakened considerably.
European equity performance has been uneven year to date. First quarter performance was lackluster across European equity markets. Drivers included a banking crisis in Cyprus that led to renewed concerns about financial stability across the continent, weak GDP numbers in Germany and France, and uncertainty surrounding the Italian elections.

Economic statistics improved in the third quarter, notably in peripheral countries such as Spain, leading to stronger performance from European equity markets.
Growth in China slowed through the first half of the year, and the second quarter was particularly bad for markets with close ties to China. Economic activity statistics slowed in April and May and Chinese officials indicated that the government might be comfortable accepting a lower longer-term growth rate. Moreover, a relatively hawkish PBOC made matters worse by allowing tighter liquidity conditions in response to fears of a credit bubble.

and management signaling investment themes detracted from returns in the region. In Japan, industry-relative valuation and stability signals underperformed, offsetting gains from industry-relative momentum and investor sentiment signals. Momentum and valuation signals tend to be negatively correlated.
Sector positioning for the overall strategy contributed positively to the fund’s performance the year. Gains from an average net overweight position in consumer discretionary and an average net underweight position in energy offset modest losses from an average net underweight in financials. Our industry-neutral bets for the overall strategy detracted from returns for the year, notably driven by the underperformance within financials.
Tactically, we are underweight value in Europe due to a tightening of value spreads. We are maintaining our long-term target weight to value in Japan.
The country selection strategy saw losses in the first quarter and gains in the second and third quarters. Overall, our momentum theme added value while our valuation theme detracted.
Our overweight position in Japan was the most significant contributor. Japan had the strongest performing equity market in local currency terms in 2013, driven by optimism over the ability of “Abenomics” to reignite growth in the Japanese economy. Our underweight position in Italian equities also outperformed. Gains were realized in the first quarter when Italian equities lagged due to uncertainty surrounding the outcome of elections in February.
Our underweight position to Switzerland was the largest detractor, with underperformance coming mainly in the first quarter, when Swiss equities benefitted from a weaker Swiss franc and positive economic statistics. Another significant detractor was our overweight position in Hong Kong, in the first and second quarters as Chinese growth slowed.
Our largest overweight positions at the end of the third quarter were in Japan, France and Hong Kong, and our largest underweights were in Australia, Switzerland and Sweden. We like Japan because of positive price momentum and improving fundamentals, in particular bullish revisions to analysts’ earnings estimates for Japanese companies and a weaker yen. We are overweight French equities due to attractive valuations and supportive price momentum, and Hong Kong equities due to attractive valuations. We dislike Australian, Swiss and Swedish equities due to expensive valuations.
The currency selection strategy saw strong performance in the first quarter, but losses in the second and third quarters. Our valuation and momentum strategies provided positive returns, while interest-rate-related signals detracted.
The largest contributor was the Japanese yen, which started the year as our largest underweight position due to expensive valuations, negative price momentum and bearish investor sentiment. This position profited in the first quarter when the announcement of a 2% inflation target and appointment of new Bank of Japan Governor Kuroda furthered expectations of extraordinary easing measures, resulting in a continuation of the slide in the yen that took place towards the end of 2012. The significant decline of the yen reduced the overvaluation of the Japanese currency and contributed to improving economic fundamentals, leading to an overweight position in the yen later in the year. This contributed to returns late in the second quarter before detracting somewhat in the third quarter.
The largest detractor was the Norwegian krone, which started the year as our largest overweight position. We found the krone attractive due to relatively high levels of carry, supportive price momentum and bullish

investor sentiment. The krone underperformed early in the year due to worsening Eurozone sentiment, and continued to underperform throughout the year on weaker domestic growth and the surprising adoption of an easing bias by the central bank. Our underweight to the British pound in the second and third quarters also detracted from performance. The pound rallied on surprisingly strong growth and less dovish than expected monetary policy.
Our largest overweight positions as of the end of the third quarter were in the Japanese yen and euro, while we are most underweight the British pound and Australian dollar. We like the yen due to attractive interest-rate-related signals, Japan’s strong equity market performance and positive investor sentiment. We are overweight the euro because of its attractive valuation, improving fundamentals and supportive price momentum. We find the British pound unattractive to due to interest-rate-related signals, and find the Australian dollar unattractive due to poor momentum, weak fundamental momentum and bearish sentiment.

Dear Shareholder:
Following a strong year for Emerging equity stocks, year to date 2013 performance was disappointing, led by slowed growth in China throughout the first half of the year. The MSCI Emerging Markets Index returned -4.35% in the nine months ending September 30, 2013, accompanied by an annualized volatility of 13.9%. The AQR Emerging Defensive Equity Fund (the “Fund”) underperformed the market, returning -5.95% (Class I shares) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, with an annualized volatility of 12.2%. The Fund seeks to provide exposure to Emerging stock markets with lower volatility than its stock market benchmark. Over a full market cycle, we expect the strategy to underperform the index when the markets are rising, but outperform the index during market declines.
The Fund overweights low-risk sectors, countries and stocks while underweighting high-risk sectors, countries and stocks, relative to the market. Since the beginning of 2013, the Fund had an overweight position in low-risk sectors such as utilities, which negatively affected performance, as this sector trailed the market. An underweighting of information technology, a high-risk sector, also negatively contributed to the Fund’s performance, as this sector outperformed the market. Low-risk stock selection within sectors underperformed, particularly within consumer staples. Selecting low-risk countries during this period contributed positively to the performance of the Fund.
The Fund pursues a defensive strategy in emerging markets, meaning it seeks to participate in rising equity markets while mitigating downside risk in declining markets. The Fund invests in a broadly diversified set of large/mid-cap companies that we believe to be profitable, stable, low-risk businesses. Profitable and stable companies are identified through measures including profit margins, asset efficiency, leverage, and earnings variability. These companies tend to be lower beta stocks, which are less sensitive to fluctuations in the overall economy and the stock market. We expect lower beta stocks to produce higher risk-adjusted returns over the long term than higher beta stocks.

Dear Shareholder:
Following a positive year in 2012, the International equity markets continued their strong performance in 2013, driven by modestly improving growth and supportive policy measures in developed countries. The MSCI World ex-USA Index returned 14.66% in the nine months ending September 30, 2013. Strong performance in the market was accompanied by annualized volatility of 12.4%, a low figure by historical standards. The AQR International Defensive Equity Fund (the “Fund”) underperformed the market, returning 11.34% (Class I shares) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, with an annualized volatility of 10.2%. The Fund seeks to provide exposure to International stock markets with lower volatility than its stock market benchmark. We expect the strategy to underperform its index when markets are rising, but outperform the index during market declines.
The Fund overweights low-risk sectors, countries and stocks, and underweights high-risk sectors, countries and stocks relative to the market. Higher-risk sectors like energy and materials underperformed the market, while lower-risk sectors like healthcare and telecommunications outperformed the market. As a result, the Fund’s sector selection relative to the MSCI World ex-USA Index outperformed for the period. However, these gains were offset by losses from low-risk stock selection within sectors, particularly in telecommunications and materials.
Selecting lower-risk countries detracted from returns in 2013. Due to the lower relative volatility of Canadian and Australian stocks, we have been overweight these countries throughout the year and their relative underperformance contributed negatively to overall returns. Low-risk stock selection within countries also underperformed, particularly within Canada and the U.K.
The Fund pursues a defensive strategy in developed markets outside of the U.S., meaning it seeks to participate in rising equity markets while mitigating downside risk in declining markets. The Fund invests in a broadly diversified set of large/mid-cap companies that we believe to be profitable, stable, low-risk businesses. Profitable and stable companies are identified through measures including profit margins, asset efficiency, leverage, and earnings variability. These companies tend to be lower beta stocks, which are less sensitive to fluctuations in the overall economy and the stock market. We expect lower beta stocks to produce higher risk-adjusted returns over the long term than higher beta stocks.

Dear Shareholder:
Following a positive year in 2012, the U.S. equity market continued a strong bull run in 2013, despite concerns of possible military engagement in Syria and political impasse around the federal budget in the third quarter. The Russell 1000 Index returned 20.76% in the nine months ending September 30, 2013, accompanied by an annualized volatility of 11.2%, a low figure by historical standards. The Fund underperformed the index, returning 20.08% (Class I shares) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, with realized volatility of 9.8%. The Fund seeks to provide exposure to U.S. stock markets with lower volatility than its stock market benchmark. We expect the strategy to underperform its index when markets are rising, but outperform the index during market declines.
The Fund overweights low-risk sectors and low-risk stocks, while underweighting high-risk sectors and high-risk stocks relative to the market. In 2013, high-risk sectors, like materials, energy and information technology, underperformed the market. While some low-risk sectors such as utilities underperformed relative to the market, healthcare, another low-risk sector outperformed. As a result, the Fund’s sector selection relative to the Russell 1000 Index contributed positively to returns for the period. Conversely, low-risk stocks underperformed high-risk stocks within industries, particularly in healthcare and consumer discretionary.
The Fund pursues a defensive strategy in the U.S., meaning it seeks to participate in rising equity markets while mitigating downside risk in declining markets. The Fund invests in a broadly diversified set of large/mid-cap companies that we believe to be profitable, stable, low-risk businesses. Profitable and stable companies are identified through measures including profit margins, asset efficiency, leverage, and earnings variability.

U.S. markets ended the fiscal year on a strong note with gains in the third quarter driven by hopes of continued monetary stimulus, strong readings on US manufacturing and service activity, and a general rebound in global economic activity. The Russell 1000 Index returned 20.76% and the Russell 1000 Growth Index returned 20.88% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The AQR Momentum Fund (the “Fund”) outperformed both Russell indices, gaining 22.35% (Class L shares) in 2013.
The outperformance to the Russell 1000 Index was primarily driven by sector over and under weights. In particular, the overweight of Consumer Discretionary, a sector that outperformed the market for the year, and the underweights of Consumer Staples, Energy and Telecommunication Services, sectors that underperformed the market year to date, contributed positively to performance.
Stock overweights of past winners and underweights of past losers in Consumer Discretionary, Health Care and Financials also contributed positively to performance. However, these gains were counteracted by losses from stock over and underweights within Information Technology, Energy and Consumer Staples, resulting in a small overall loss.
The AQR Momentum Fund invests in stocks of large and mid-cap U.S. companies with positive momentum. A stock is considered to have positive momentum if it has performed well in the prior twelve months (excluding the most recent month) relative to other stocks in the Fund’s investment universe, which is comprised of the 1000 largest U.S. companies by market capitalization. The Fund is not actively managed to outperform a growth, value or core benchmark. Rather, it seeks to provide systematic exposure to stocks that share the common characteristic of positive momentum.
Note that the Fund sometimes uses derivatives, such as S&P500 E-Mini futures, to gain market exposure and equitize daily flows. The Fund’s derivatives positions in 2013 contributed about 0.28% year-to-date.

U.S. Small Cap stocks fared similarly well to their large- and mid-cap peers. The Russell 2000 Index finished up 27.69% and the Russell 2000 Growth Index returned 32.47% for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The AQR Small Cap Momentum Fund (the “Fund”) outperformed the Russell 2000 Index and fared similarly to the Russell 2000 Growth Index, returning 32.50% (Class L shares) in 2013.
Outperformance relative to the Russell 2000 Index was largely driven by relative stock exposures within sectors, particularly in the Consumer Discretionary, Health Care, Financials and Information Technology sectors. In Consumer Discretionary the Fund benefited from the overweight in Lumber Liquidators Holdings, the largest specialty retailer of hardwood flooring in North America, a company whose price has been trending up over the year, on consistent profits and earnings per share that beat the analysts’ consensus estimate. In Health Care, the Fund gained from the overweight in Acadia Pharmaceuticals, a biopharmaceutical company, whose price has also been trending up since April on evidence that its drug Pimavanserin was efficacious without significant side effects in patients with Parkinson’s disease. Finally, in Financials, a significant contribution was due to the overweight in Radian, a mortgage insurance company that has experienced an up drift in price due to a pickup in business and a decrease in delinquent loans on its books.
Relative exposures across sectors also added significantly to outperformance, particularly from the overweight in Health Care, a sector that outperformed the market, and the underweight in Utilities, a defensive sector that underperformed the market over the year.
The AQR Small Cap Momentum Fund invests in stocks of small-cap U.S. companies with positive momentum. A stock is considered to have positive momentum if it has performed well in the prior twelve months (excluding the most recent month) relative to other stocks in the investment universe, which is comprised of U.S. companies smaller than the 1000th largest and larger than the 3000th largest company by market capitalization. The Fund is not actively managed to outperform a growth, value or core benchmark. Rather, it seeks to provide systematic exposure to stocks that share the common characteristic of positive momentum.
Note that the Fund sometimes uses derivatives, such as Russell 2000 E-Mini futures, to gain market exposure and equitize daily flows. The Fund’s derivatives positions in 2013 contributed about 0.57% to performance year-to-date.

Developed world markets posted strong gains year to date driven by improving economic growth prospects in both Europe and China. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013, The MSCI World ex-USA Index returned 14.66%, while the MSCI World ex-USA Growth Index gained 14.70%. The AQR International Momentum Fund (the “Fund”) outperformed both benchmarks, returning 16.81% (Class L shares) in 2013.
The Fund’s outperformance relative to the broader MSCI World ex-USA Index, was primarily driven by over and underweights across sectors, particularly from the underweights of Energy and Materials, sectors that underperformed the market over the year, and the overweight in Consumer Discretionary, a sector that outperformed year-to-date. Relative exposures within sectors also contributed positively, but more modestly to performance. Specifically, while the Fund recorded gains from stock over and underweights within Financials, Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology, it incurred losses from stock over and underweights within Energy, Industrials, Health Care and Industrials.
The Fund also benefited from stock over and underweights within country, with the largest contributor coming from Japan. For example, the Fund gained from the overweight of the car maker Toyota Motor, a company whose price has been trending up since the beginning of the year on increased profit and high earnings forecasts from a weak yen, and the overweight of Softbank, a telecommunications and internet corporation, whose price has been drifting up over the year. Relative exposures across countries also added positively, but by a smaller amount, with positive contributions from the underweight of Canada and the overweight of Japan being counteracted by negative contributions from the underweight of Germany and overweight of Hong Kong.
A stock is considered to have positive momentum if it has performed well in the prior twelve months (excluding the most recent month) relative to other stocks in the investment universe, which is comprised of approximately the top 85% of stocks by market capitalization of each of the 20 major developed markets outside the U.S. The Fund is not actively managed to outperform a growth, value or core benchmark. Rather, it seeks to provide systematic exposure to stocks that share the common characteristic of positive momentum.
Note that the Fund sometimes uses derivatives, such as MSCI EAFE E-Mini futures, to gain market exposure and equitize daily flows. The Fund’s derivatives positions in 2013 contributed about 0.53% to performance year-to-date.

Outperformance relative to the Russell 2000 Index was driven mainly by relative stock exposures within sectors, particularly in the Health Care, Consumer Discretionary, Financials and Information Technology sectors.

Stock over and underweights across sectors also added significantly to outperformance, particularly from the overweight of Health Care, a sector that outperformed the market over the year, and the underweight of Utilities, a defensive sector that underperformed the market year to date.
The AQR Tax-Managed Small Cap Momentum Fund invests in stocks of small-cap U.S. companies with positive momentum. A stock is considered to have positive momentum if it has performed well in the prior twelve months (excluding the most recent month) relative to other stocks in the investment universe, which is comprised of U.S. companies smaller than the 1000th largest and larger than the 3000th largest company by market capitalization. The Fund employs a tax management strategy which considers the potential impact of taxes on investment return. The Fund does not currently use derivatives.

The AQR Tax-Managed International Momentum Fund (the “Fund”) outperformed the market in 2013 gaining 17.26% (Class L shares) for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Over the same period, the MSCI World ex-USA Index returned 14.66% and the MSCI World ex-USA Growth Index returned 14.70%.
The Fund’s outperformance relative to the broader MSCI World ex-USA Index was primarily driven by over and underweights across sectors, particularly from the underweights of Materials and Energy, sectors that underperformed the market over the year, and the overweight in Consumer Discretionary, a sector that outperformed year to date. Relative exposures within sectors also contributed positively, but more modestly to performance. Specifically, gains from stock over and underweights within Financials, Consumer Discretionary and Consumer Staples, were to some extent offset by losses from stock over and underweights in Energy, Materials, Health Care and Industrials.
The Fund also benefited from stock over and underweights within country, with the largest contributor coming from Japan. For example, the fund gained from the overweight of the car maker Toyota Motor, a company whose price has been trending up since the beginning of the year on increased profits and high earnings forecasts from a weak yen, and the overweight of Softbank, a telecommunications and internet corporation, whose price has been drifting up over the year. Relative exposures across countries detracted slightly. The small benefit from the underweight of Canada and overweight of Japan was offset by the negative contributions from the underweight of Germany and overweight of Hong Kong.
The AQR Tax-Managed International Momentum Fund invests in stocks of large and mid-cap non-U.S. companies with positive momentum. A stock is considered to have positive momentum if it has performed well in the prior twelve months (excluding the most recent month) relative to other stocks in the investment universe, which is comprised of approximately the top 85% of stocks by market capitalization of each of the 20 major developed markets outside the U.S. The Fund is not actively managed to outperform a growth, value or core benchmark. Rather, it seeks to provide systematic exposure to stocks that share the common characteristic of positive momentum. The Fund employs a tax management strategy which considers the potential impact of taxes on investment return. The Fund does not currently use derivatives.

U.S. markets ended the fiscal year on a strong note with gains in the third quarter driven by hopes of continued monetary stimulus, strong readings on U.S. manufacturing and service activity, and a general rebound in global economic activity. The Russell 1000 Index returned 9.28%, the Russell 1000 Growth Index returned 10.93% and the Russell 1000 Value Index returned 7.61% for the year since the fund’s inception on March 26, 2013. The AQR Core Equity Fund (the “Fund”) outperformed the market and the Russell 1000 Value Index and fared similarly to the Russell 1000 Growth Index, gaining 10.90% (Class L shares) for the year since inception. Value and Momentum themes were the main contributors to performance.
The outperformance to the Russell 1000 Index was largely driven by sector over and underweights, specifically the overweight of Consumer Discretionary and underweights of Consumer Staples, Telecommunication Services and Utilities, the 3 worst performing sectors relative to the market over the year since the fund’s inception. Stock overweights of past winners and underweights of past losers also contributed to performance. In particular, the stock over and underweights in Financials, the largest contributor, were diluted to some extent by losses from relative exposures within Energy, Heath Care and Information Technology
The AQR Core Equity Fund invests in stocks of attractively valued U.S. large and mid-cap companies that have positive momentum and strong profitability. The Fund is not actively managed to outperform a growth, value or core benchmark. Rather, it seeks to provide systematic exposure to stocks that rank high on a combined score of Value, Momentum and Profitability styles. The Fund does not currently use derivatives.

U.S. Small Cap stocks fared similarly well to their large- and mid-cap peers. The Russell 2000 Index gained 13.84%, the Russell 2000 Growth Index gained 17.45% and the Russell 2000 Value Index returned 10.29% for the year since the fund’s inception on March 26, 2013. The AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund (the “Fund”) outperformed the three Russell indices returning 18.80% (Class L shares) for the year since inception. Value, Momentum and Profitability themes contributed positively to performance.
The outperformance over the Russell 2000 Index was primarily driven by stock over and underweights within sectors, particularly within Consumer Discretionary, Financials and Information Technology. In Consumer Discretionary, the fund benefited from the overweight of Zale, a retailer of fine jewelry, whose price jumped in mid-May and mid-August on better than expected earnings both quarters, and increased same-store revenues in the third quarter. In Financials, a significant positive contribution derived from the overweight of Symetra Financials, a diversified financial services company that provides employee benefits, annuities and life insurance, whose price has been drifting up since end of May on improved earnings guidance for the year. In Information Technology, the fund gained from an overweight of Booz Allen Hamilton, a technology consulting firm, whose price has been trending up since the beginning of April on better than expected earnings driven by strong margins, and an underweight of Aruba Networks, a provider of network access solutions for mobile enterprises, whose price crashed in May as the company posted quarterly revenue below the previously stated guidance due to a worldwide drop in customer orders.
The sector over and underweights also added positively to performance, particularly from the overweight of Consumer Discretionary, a sector that outperformed the market since inception, and the underweight of Utilities, a defensive sector that underperformed the market since inception.
The AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund invests in stocks of attractively valued U.S. small-cap companies that have positive momentum and strong profitability. The Fund is not actively managed to outperform a growth, value or core benchmark. Rather, it seeks to provide systematic exposure to stocks that rank high on a combined score of Value, Momentum and Profitability styles. The Fund does not currently use derivatives.

Developed world markets posted strong gains year to date driven by improving economic growth prospects in both Europe and China. The MSCI World ex-USA Index returned 9.52%, the MSCI World ex-USA Index gained 8.41% and MSCI World ex-USA Value Index gained 10.63% for the year since the fund’s inception on March 26, 2013. The AQR International Core Equity Fund (the “Fund”) strongly outperformed the three benchmarks returning 12.80% (Class L shares) for the year since inception. Value and Momentum themes were the main drivers of performance.
The outperformance over the MSCI World ex-USA benchmark was driven roughly equally by sector over and under weights as well as by the relative exposures within sectors. Specifically, the overweight of Consumer Discretionary and underweights of Energy and Materials contributed positively to performance. In addition, the relative exposures within Consumer Discretionary, Financials and Telecommunication Services also added positively to performance.
The relative exposures within country, particularly from Japan also contributed significantly to outperformance. For example, the fund benefited from the overweight of Fuji Heavy Industries, the maker of the Subaru automobile, whose price has been trending up since the beginning the year on increased earnings from vehicle sales increases, product mix improvements, cost reductions and yen depreciation, as well as from the overweight in Softbank, a telecommunications and internet corporation, whose prices has been drifting up over the year. The Fund also gained from the relative exposures across countries, particularly the underweight of Australia, a country that underperformed the benchmark, and the overweights of Japan and Spain, countries that outperformed the benchmark over the year since the fund’s inception.
The AQR International Core Equity Fund invests in stocks of attractively valued large and mid-cap non-U.S. companies that have positive momentum and strong profitability. The Fund is not actively managed to outperform a growth, value or core benchmark. Rather, it seeks to provide systematic exposure to stocks that rank high on a combined score of Value, Momentum and Profitability styles. The Fund does not currently use derivatives.

PRINCIPAL RISKS:
AQR Global Equity Fund, AQR International Equity Fund: Common stocks are subject to greater fluctuations in market value than certain other asset classes as a result of such factors as a company’s business performance, investor perceptions, stock market trends and general economic conditions. Funds that emphasize investments in small and mid-cap companies generally will experience greater price volatility. The AQR Global Equity Fund and the AQR International Equity Fund use derivatives to manage their country and currency exposures. The use of derivatives exposes the Funds to additional risks including increased volatility, possible absence of a liquid secondary market, and possible losses greater than a Fund’s initial investment as well as increased transaction costs. Foreign investing involves risks not associated with investing in U.S. securities, such as currency fluctuations, political uncertainty and differences in regulation and generally accepted accounting principles. These Funds are not suitable for all investors.
AQR Emerging Defensive Equity Fund, AQR International Defensive Equity Fund and AQR U.S. Defensive Equity Fund: Common stocks are subject to greater fluctuations in market value than certain other asset classes as a result of such factors as a company’s business performance, investor perceptions, stock market trends and general economic conditions. Funds that emphasize investments in small and mid-cap companies generally will experience greater price volatility. The use of derivatives exposes the Funds to additional risks, including increased volatility, possible absence of a liquid secondary market, and possible losses greater than a Fund’s initial investment as well as increased transaction costs. Emerging market and foreign investing by the AQR Emerging Defensive Equity Fund and AQR International Defensive Equity Fund involves risks not associated with investing in U.S. securities, such as currency fluctuations, political uncertainty and differences in regulation and generally accepted accounting principles. These Funds are not suitable for all investors.
AQR Momentum Fund, AQR Small Cap Momentum Fund, AQR International Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed Small Cap Momentum Fund and AQR Tax-Managed International Momentum Fund: Securities with positive momentum generally will be more volatile than a broad cross-section of securities. In addition, there may be periods when the momentum style is out of favor, and during which the investment performance of a Fund, which uses a momentum strategy, generally will suffer. Common stocks are subject to greater fluctuations in market value than certain other asset classes as a result of such factors as a company’s business performance, investor perceptions, stock market trends and general economic conditions. The use of derivatives exposes the Funds to additional risks including increased volatility, possible absence of a liquid secondary market, and possible losses greater than a Fund’s initial investment as well as increased transaction costs. Investments in small cap companies by the AQR Small Cap Momentum Fund and AQR Tax-Managed Small Cap Momentum Funds involve higher risks in some respects than do investments in stocks of larger companies and generally will experience greater price volatility. The performance of the AQR Tax-Managed Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed Small Cap Momentum Fund and AQR Tax-Managed International Momentum Fund (each, a “Tax-Managed Fund”) may deviate from that of non-tax-managed funds and may not provide as high a return before consideration of federal income tax consequences. Each Tax-Managed Fund will balance investment considerations with tax consequences and can realize capital gains. Foreign investing by the AQR International Momentum Fund and AQR Tax-Managed International Momentum Fund involves risks not associated with investing in U.S. securities, such as currency fluctuations, political uncertainty and differences in regulation and generally accepted accounting principles. The Funds are not suitable for all investors.
AQR Core Equity Fund, AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund and AQR International Core Equity Fund: Securities with positive momentum generally will be more volatile than a broad cross-section of securities.

In addition, there may be periods when the momentum style is out of favor, and during which the investment performance of a Fund, which uses a momentum strategy, generally will suffer. Investing in or having exposure to value stocks presents the risk that the stocks may never reach what the Adviser believes are their full market values. In addition, value stocks may fall out of favor with investors and underperform growth stocks during given periods. Common stocks are subject to greater fluctuations in market value than certain other asset classes as a result of such factors as a company’s business performance, investor perceptions, stock market trends and general economic conditions. The use of derivatives exposes the Funds to additional risks including increased volatility, possible absence of a liquid secondary market, and possible losses greater than a Fund’s initial investment as well as increased transaction costs. Investments in small cap companies by the AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund involve higher risks in some respects than do investments in stocks of larger companies and generally will experience greater price volatility. Foreign investing by the AQR International Core Equity Fund involves risks not associated with investing in U.S. securities such as currency fluctuations, political uncertainty and differences in regulation and generally accepted accounting principles. The Funds are not suitable for all investors.
An investment in any of the AQR Funds listed above (the “Funds”) involves risk, including loss of principal. Diversification does not eliminate this risk. The value of the Funds’ portfolio holdings may fluctuate in response to events specific to the companies in which the Fund invests, as well as economic, political or social events in the United States or abroad. The Funds from time to time employ various hedging techniques, it is not possible to hedge fully or perfectly against any risk, and hedging entails its own costs.
An investor considering the Funds should be able to tolerate potentially wide price fluctuations. The Funds may be subject to high portfolio turnover risk as a result of frequent trading, and thus will incur a higher level of brokerage fees and commissions and cause a higher level of tax liability to shareholders in the funds. The Funds may attempt to increase their income or total return through the use of securities lending, and they may be subject to the possibility of additional loss as a result of this investment technique.
Please refer to each Fund’s prospectus for complete information regarding all risks associated with the Funds.

Valuation: A process of determining the current worth of an asset or company.
Volatility is a statistical measurement of up and down asset price fluctuations over time. If an asset has rapid dramatic price swings, its “volatility” will likely be relatively high. If prices are consistent and rarely change, “volatility” of that asset will likely be relatively low. “Volatility” can be measured as the standard deviation of an asset with a specific time horizon. It is often used to quantify the risk of such asset over a time period, typically expressed in annualized terms.

1. Organization
AQR Funds (the “Trust”), organized as a Delaware statutory trust on September 4, 2008, is an open-end management investment company, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). As of September 30, 2013, the Trust consists of twenty-three active series, fourteen of which are presented in this book (collectively, the “Funds” and each individually a “Fund”): AQR Global Equity Fund, AQR International Equity Fund, AQR Emerging Defensive Equity Fund, AQR International Defensive Equity Fund, AQR U.S. Defensive Equity Fund, AQR Momentum Fund, AQR Small Cap Momentum Fund, AQR International Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed Small Cap Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed International Momentum Fund, AQR Core Equity Fund, AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund and AQR International Core Equity Fund. The remaining nine active series are reported in a separate book at December 31, 2013. AQR Capital Management, LLC (“the Advisor”) serves as the investment advisor of each Fund.
The AQR Core Equity Fund, AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund and AQR International Core Equity Fund commenced operations on March 26, 2013.
In May 2013, the Board of Trustees voted to change the fiscal year end for the Funds from December 31 to September 30.
The investment objective of the AQR Global Equity Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The principal investment strategies of the AQR Global Equity Fund include seeking to outperform, after expenses, the MSCI World Index (the “Global Equity Benchmark”) while seeking to control its tracking error relative to this benchmark. The Fund offers Class I, Class N and Class Y shares.
The investment objective of the AQR International Equity Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The principal investment strategies of the AQR International Equity Fund include seeking to outperform, after expenses, the MSCI EAFE Index (the “International Equity Benchmark”) while seeking to control its tracking error relative to this benchmark. The Fund offers Class I, Class N and Class Y shares.
The investment objective of the AQR Emerging Defensive Equity Fund is to seek total return. The Fund pursues a “defensive” strategy that provides exposure to emerging stock markets. The Fund seeks to invest in lower beta stocks of companies with stable businesses, high profitability, low operating and financial leverage, lower earnings-per-share variability and other measures of quality. These stocks generally are less volatile than the market average, and are expected to produce higher risk adjusted returns over a full market cycle than market indexes. The Fund offers Class I and Class N shares.

The Fund offers Class I and Class N shares.
The investment objective of the AQR Momentum Fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests primarily in equity or equity-related securities (including, but not limited to, exchange-traded funds, equity index futures, and depositary receipts) of large and mid-sized companies traded on a principal U.S. exchange or over-the-counter market that the Advisor determines to have positive momentum. The Advisor considers a security to have positive momentum primarily if it has a return over the prior twelve months that ranks in the top third of its relevant universe at the time of purchase. The Fund offers Class L and Class N shares.

2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the Funds:
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires the Advisor to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, if any, at the date of the
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | AQR Funds | | | | | | Annual Report | | | | | | September 2013 | | 151 |
| | | | | | | | | |
| | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements | | | September 30, 2013 | |
financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and such differences could be material.
Valuation of Investments: Each Fund’s portfolio securities are valued as of the close of business of the regular session of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). The Funds’ Board of Trustees has adopted procedures for the valuation of the Fund’s securities and has delegated the day-to-day responsibility for valuation determinations under those procedures to the Advisor. Equity securities, including securities sold short, rights and warrants, are valued at the latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each security trades. The value of securities listed on the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC (“NASDAQ”) are generally the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. In accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees, the Funds apply fair value factors to international securities traded outside of the Western Hemisphere on a daily basis utilizing the quotations of an independent pricing service, unless the Advisor determines that use of another valuation methodology is appropriate. The pricing service uses statistical analysis and quantitative models to adjust local market prices using factors such as subsequent movement and changes in the prices of indices, securities and exchange rates in other markets in determining fair value as of the time the Funds calculate their net asset value. Securities traded in the over-the-counter market, and which are not quoted by NASDAQ, are valued at the last sale price, if available, otherwise at the last quoted bid price (in the case of short sales, at the ask price). Bonds are valued using the latest bid prices or evaluated quotes furnished by independent pricing services. Evaluated quotes are based on a matrix system, which may consider such factors as quoted prices, yields, maturities and ratings and are not necessarily reliant on quoted prices. The Funds value debt securities maturing less than 61 days from the date of purchase at amortized cost, which approximates market value. The value of futures contracts purchased and sold by the Funds is accounted for using the unrealized gain or loss on the contracts that is determined by marking the contracts to their current settlement prices. Futures and options contracts are valued at the last quoted sales price on the valuation date. In the event that the exchange for a specific futures contract closes earlier than 4:00 p.m., the futures contract is valued at the Official Settlement Price of the exchange. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued at such investment company’s current day closing net asset value per share. Exchange-Traded Funds (“ETFs”) and closed-end investment companies are valued at the last quoted sales price. Total return swap contracts are valued at fair value, based on the price of the underlying referenced instrument.
The Funds may use pricing services to obtain readily available market quotations. Where market quotations are not readily available, or if an available market quotation is determined not to reflect fair value, a security will be valued based on its fair value as determined in accordance with the valuation procedures approved by the Funds’ Board of Trustees, which may include the use of proprietary valuation models which may consider market transactions in comparable securities and the various relationships between securities in determining value and/or market characteristics such as benchmark yield curves, credit spreads, estimated default rates, underlying collateral, and other unique security features. The Funds may also use an income-based valuation approach in which the anticipated future cash flows of the investment are discounted to calculate fair value. Discounts may also be applied due to the nature or duration of any restrictions on the disposition of the investments. Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the prices used by other mutual funds to calculate their net assets. It is possible the estimated values may differ significantly from the values which would have been used had a ready market for the investments existed. These differences could be material.
Convertible Securities: Certain Funds invest in preferred stocks and fixed-income securities which are convertible into common stock. Convertible securities may be converted either at a stated price or rate within a specified period of time into a specified number of shares of common stock. By investing in a convertible security, the Funds may participate in any capital appreciation or depreciation of a company’s stock, but to a lesser degree than if it had invested in that company’s common stock. Convertible securities rank senior to common stock in a corporation’s capital structure and, therefore, entail less risk than the corporation’s common stock. The Funds may attempt to hedge some of their investments in convertible debt securities by selling short the issuer’s common stock.
Master Agreements: Certain Funds are a party to ISDA (International Swap and Derivatives Association, Inc.) Master Agreements (“Master Agreements”) with certain counterparties that govern over-the-counter derivative (including Total Return, Credit Default and Interest Rate Swaps) and foreign exchange contracts entered into by the Funds. The Master Agreements may contain provisions regarding, among other things, the parties’ general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. With respect to certain counterparties, in

| | | | | | | | | |
| | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements | | | September 30, 2013 | |
accordance with the terms of the Master Agreements, collateral posted for the benefit of a Fund is held in a segregated account by a custodian of the Fund’s custodian and with respect to those amounts which can be sold or repledged, are presented in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments. Collateral pledged by the Fund is segregated by the Fund’s custodian and identified in the Fund’s Schedule of Investments. Collateral can be in the form of cash, debt securities issued by the U.S. Government and related agencies, other securities or money market funds as agreed to by the Fund and the applicable counterparty. Collateral requirements are generally determined based on the Fund’s net position with each counterparty. The Funds may be required to post collateral if a Fund is in a net liability position with the counterparty exceeding certain amounts. Termination events applicable to the Fund may occur upon a decline in the Fund’s net assets below a specified threshold over a certain period of time. Termination events applicable to counterparties may occur upon a decline in the counterparty’s long-term and short-term credit ratings below a specified level. In each case, upon occurrence, the other party may elect to terminate early and cause settlement of all derivative and foreign exchange contracts outstanding, including the payment of any losses and costs resulting from such early termination, as reasonably determined by the terminating party. Any decision by one or more of the Fund’s counterparties to elect early termination could impact a Fund’s future derivative activity. The Funds’ derivative assets and liabilities on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities are presented net only within a derivative type when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists between the Funds and a derivative counterparty.
Futures Contracts: Certain Funds invest in futures contracts. The Funds invest in futures in order to hedge their investments or equitize their cash flows against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates or market conditions. Investments in futures may increase or decrease exposure to a particular market. In the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of a futures commission merchant that holds margin on behalf of the Funds, the Funds may not be entitled to the return of all of the margin owed to the Funds, potentially resulting in a loss. No monies are paid to or received by a Fund upon the purchase or sale of a futures contract. Initially, a Fund will be required to deposit with the broker an amount of cash or cash equivalents, known as initial margin, based on the value of the contract. Subsequent payments to and from the broker, will be made on a periodic basis as the price of the underlying instruments fluctuates. Changes in market value of open futures contracts are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the Statements of Operations. Realized gains or losses represent the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed or expired, and are reported in the Statements of Operations. Securities deposited as initial margin are designated in the Schedules of Investments and cash deposited is presented as Due from Broker on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The use of long futures contracts subjects the Funds to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities, up to the contract amount of the futures contracts. The use of short futures contracts subjects the Funds to unlimited risk of loss. Futures contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: Certain Funds buy and sell forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which are agreements between two parties to buy and sell currencies at a set price on a future date. These contracts are used to protect against a decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar of the currencies in which portfolio securities are denominated or quoted (or an increase in the value of a currency in which securities a Fund intends to buy are denominated, when a Fund holds cash reserves and short term investments), or for other investment purposes. The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency exchange contracts is determined using current forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service. The market value of the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency exchange rates. The contract is marked to market daily and the change in market value is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When the contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The Funds could be exposed to risk if the value of the currency changes unfavorably, if the counterparties to the contracts are unable to meet the terms of their contracts or if the Fund is unable to enter into a closing position. Risks may exceed amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Non-deliverable forward foreign currency exchange contracts are settled with the counterparty in U.S. dollars without the delivery of foreign currency. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Total Return Swap Contracts: Certain Funds invest in total return swaps to obtain exposure to the underlying referenced instrument, obtain leverage or attain the returns from ownership without actually owning the underlying position. Total return swaps are two-party contracts that generally obligate one party to pay the positive return and the other party to pay the negative return on a specified reference security, basket of securities, security index or index component during the period of the swap. Total return swap contracts are marked to market daily based on the value of

| | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements | | | September 30, 2013 | |
the underlying reference entity and the change, if any, is recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. Total return swaps normally do not involve the delivery of securities or other underlying assets. If the other party to an total return swap defaults, a Fund’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that such Fund is contractually entitled to receive, if any. Total return swaps are derivatives and their value can be volatile. To the extent that the Advisor, as applicable, does not accurately analyze and predict future market trends, the values of assets or economic factors, a Fund may suffer a loss, which may exceed the related amounts shown in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Periodic payments received or paid by the Funds are recorded as realized gains or losses. Total return swap contracts outstanding at period end, if any, are listed after each Fund’s Schedule of Investments.
Securities Lending: Certain Funds may lend securities to brokers approved by the Advisor in order to generate additional income. Securities loaned are collateralized by cash, which is invested in various money market funds. Upon termination of a loan, the Funds are required to return to the borrower the posted cash collateral. Loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any time. Securities lending income is comprised of income earned on cash collateral investments, net of a rebate received from or paid to borrowers for use of cash collateral and lending agent fees. This amount is recorded as Securities lending income, net on the Statements of Operations. The Funds also receive payments from the borrower during the period of the loan, equivalent to dividends and interest earned on the securities loaned, which are recorded as Dividend or Interest income, respectively, on the Statements of Operations.
The Funds bear the risk of loss associated with the collateral investments and are not entitled to additional collateral from the borrower to cover any such losses. To the extent that the value of the collateral investments declines below the amount owed to a borrower, a Fund may incur losses that exceed the amount it earned on lending the security. Upon termination of a loan, a Fund may use leverage (borrow money) to repay the borrower for cash collateral posted if the Advisor does not believe that it is prudent to sell the collateral investments to fund the payment of this liability.
In the event of a default by a borrower with respect to any loan, the lending agent will exercise any and all remedies provided under the applicable borrower agreement to make the Funds whole. These remedies include purchasing replacement securities by applying the collateral held from the defaulting broker against the purchase cost of the replacement securities. If, despite such efforts by the lending agent to exercise these remedies, the Funds sustain losses as a result of a borrower’s default, the Securities Lending Agent indemnifies the Funds by purchasing replacement securities at its expense, or paying the Funds an amount equal to the market value of the replacement securities, subject to certain limitations which are set forth in detail in the Securities Lending Agency Agreement between the Funds and the lending agent.
Securities Transactions and Investment Income: Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date (the date the order to buy or sell is executed). Securities gains and losses are calculated on a specifically identified cost basis. Interest income is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued using the effective interest method adjusted for amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts using the effective yield method. Dividend income/expense is recorded on the ex-dividend date or when the Fund first learns of the ex-date dividend notification.
Allocation of Income and Expenses: In calculating the net asset value per share of each class, investment income, realized and unrealized gains and losses and expenses other than class specific expenses are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the proportion of net assets of each class at the beginning of each day. Each Fund is charged for those expenses that are directly attributable to each Fund, such as advisory fees and registration costs. Trust level expenses are allocated among the Funds based on the ratio of average net assets or other reasonable methodology.
The Funds record distributions received in excess of income from underlying investments as a reduction of cost of investments and/or realized gain. Such amounts are based on estimates (if actual amounts are not available) and actual amounts of income, realized gain and return of capital may differ from the estimated amounts. The Funds adjust the estimated amounts of components of distributions (and consequently net investment income) as necessary once the issuers provide information about the actual composition of the distributions.
The Funds may be subject to foreign taxes on income, capital gains on investments or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Funds will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon their current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which they invest.

Organization and Offering Costs: Costs incurred by the AQR Core Equity Fund, AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund and AQR International Core Equity Fund in connection with the organization of those Funds, including professional and incorporation fees, are fully expensed by the end of the fiscal period ended September 30, 2013. Offering costs, including professional fees, printing fees and the offering of the initial registration, are amortized over a period not longer than twelve months from the date the Funds commenced operations.
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates of such currencies against the U.S. dollar. The market value of investment securities and the other assets and liabilities are translated at the exchange rate as of the valuation date. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the net assets of the Funds are presented at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of securities held or sold during the period. Accordingly, such foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the reported net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investment transactions.
Reported realized foreign currency gains or losses arise from the disposition of foreign currency and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on each Fund’s books on the transaction date and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes (due to the changes in the exchange rate) in the value of foreign currency and assets and liabilities (other than investments) denominated in foreign currencies, which are held at period end.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include U.S. dollar and foreign currency deposited at bank accounts at amounts which may exceed insured limits. The Funds are subject to risk to the extent that the institutions may be unable to fulfill their obligations.
Due to/from Broker: Due to/from Broker represents cash balances on deposit with the Funds’ prime brokers and counterparties. The Funds are subject to credit risk should the prime brokers and counterparties be unable to meet their obligations to the Funds.
Federal Income Taxes: Each Fund is treated as a separate taxable entity for federal income tax purposes. Each Fund intends to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). If so qualified, each Fund will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent it distributes substantially all of its net investment income and capital gains to shareholders.
The Advisor evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The Funds are required to analyze all open tax years. Open tax years are those years that are open for examination by the relevant income taxing authority. The returns of the Funds for the prior three fiscal years, or since inception if shorter, are open for examination. As of September 30, 2013, the Funds had no examinations in progress.
The Funds have concluded that there is no tax liability/benefit resulting from uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will significantly change in twelve months.
Distributions to Shareholders: The Funds intend to declare and distribute substantially all of their net investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Income and capital gain distributions will be determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. To the extent these “book/tax” differences are permanent in nature (i.e., that they result from other than timing of recognition — “temporary differences”), such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their Federal tax-basis treatment.

Indemnification: In the normal course of business, the Funds may enter into various agreements that provide for general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as any potential exposure involves future claims that may be made against the Funds. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
3. Federal Income Tax Matters

The differences between book basis and tax basis appreciation (depreciation) on investments is primarily attributable to wash sale loss deferrals, mark to market on passive foreign investment companies (PFIC), return of capital from investments in REITs and return of capital from corporate actions.
As of September 30, 2013, the components of net assets (excluding paid in capital) on a tax basis were as follows:

The differences between book basis and tax basis components of net assets are primarily attributable to tax deferral losses on wash sales and other book and tax differences including capital loss carryforwards, passive foreign investment companies (“PFIC”), forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swap contracts.
As of September 30, 2013, the effect of permanent book/tax reclassifications resulted in increase (decrease) to the components of net assets as follows:

For financial reporting purposes, capital accounts are adjusted to reflect the tax character of permanent book/tax differences. Reclassifications are primarily due to the tax treatment of swap contracts, foreign currency reclassifications, sale of Real Estate Investment Trusts and PFIC’s. The result of operations and net assets were not affected by these reclassifications.
The tax character of distributions paid during the periods ended September 30, 2013, December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, were as follows:

As of September 30, 2013, for federal income tax purposes, the following Funds have capital loss carryforwards available to offset capital gains, if any, to the extent provided by the U.S. Treasury regulations.

AQR International Core Equity Fund | | | 28,884 | | | | — | | | | N/A | |
During the period ended September 30, 2013, the Funds utilized capital loss carry forwards in the amounts listed below:
| | | | | | | | |
FUND | | SHORT-TERM | | | LONG-TERM | |
AQR International Equity Fund | | $ | 5,018,906 | | | $ | — | |
AQR Momentum Fund | | | 7,913,368 | | | | — | |
AQR International Momentum Fund | | | 6,884,928 | | | | 219,017 | |
Under the Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010, the Funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. Post-enactment capital loss carryforwards retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered short-term as under previous law. Any post-enactment capital losses generated will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment tax years.
4. Fair Value Measurements
The Funds utilize various inputs in determining the value of each Fund’s investments. GAAP establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring the most observable inputs be used when available. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels as follows:
Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities
Level 2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, pre-payment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
Valuation methodology and inputs
An investment asset’s or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level input, individually or in aggregate, that is significant to fair value measurement. The objective of fair value measurement remains the same even when there is a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability and regardless of the valuation technique used. The valuation techniques used by the Funds to measure fair value maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following inputs and techniques may be used by the Funds to evaluate how to classify each major category of assets and liabilities for Level 2 and Level 3, in accordance with GAAP.
Equities traded outside North America are fair valued daily based on the application of a fair value factor, and therefore are considered Level 2 (Note 2). Investments that trade in markets that are not considered to be active, but are valued based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are also classified within Level 2. These include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities, investment-grade corporate bonds, money market funds and less liquid listed equities. Corporate and sovereign bonds and other fixed-income instruments are valued at estimated fair value based on quotations (including evaluated quotes) from an independent pricing service, as well as quotations from counterparties and other market

participants. Investments classified within Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs, as they trade infrequently or not at all. Level 3 instruments include illiquid securities. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the Funds use one or more valuation techniques (e.g., the market approach, the income approach, or the cost approach) for which sufficient and reliable data is available. Within Level 3, the use of the market approach generally consists of using comparable market transactions, while the use of the income approach generally consists of the net present value of estimated future cash flows, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors. The inputs used by the Funds in estimating the value of Level 3 investments include the original transaction price, recent transactions in the same or similar instruments, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, subsequent rounds of financing, recapitalizations and other transactions across the capital structure, offerings in the equity or debt capital markets, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 investments may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the Advisor in the absence of market information. Assumptions used by the Funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the Funds’ results of operations.
The Funds invest in derivative instruments. Derivative instruments can be exchange traded or privately negotiated over-the-counter (“OTC”). Exchange-traded derivatives, such as futures contracts and exchange traded option contracts, are typically classified within Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on whether or not they are deemed to be actively traded. Futures and option contracts that are listed on national exchanges and are freely transferable are valued at fair value based on their last sales price on the date of determination on the exchange that constitutes the principal market. OTC derivatives, including futures, forwards, and swaps, are valued by the Funds using observable inputs, such as quotations received from the counterparty, or dealers and brokers, whenever available and considered reliable. Generally, a valuation model is used consistently for similar derivative types and model inputs, including, but not limited to, market prices, yield curves, credit spreads, volatilities and implied correlations which are obtained from outside brokers and/or pricing services when available. In instances where models are used, the value of an OTC derivative depends upon the contractual terms of, and specific risks inherent in, the instrument as well as the availability and reliability of observable inputs. Such inputs include market prices for reference securities, yield curves, credit curves, measures of volatility, prepayment rates and correlations of such inputs. Certain OTC derivatives, such as generic forwards, swaps and options, have inputs which can generally be corroborated by market data and are therefore classified within Level 2. Equity total return swap transactions are valued at fair value, based on the price of the underlying security.
Securities for which market quotations or independent pricing service quotations are not readily available, are not readily marketable, or model priced and all other assets of the Funds are valued at fair value using valuation procedures for the Funds, which have been approved by the Board of Trustees. The Advisor has established a Valuation Committee (the “VC”) which is responsible for overseeing the pricing and valuation of all securities held in the Funds. The VC operates under the valuation procedures approved by the Funds’ Board of Trustees. The VC meets quarterly and on an as-needed basis. The VC is responsible for valuing any securities or other assets for which prices or valuations are not readily determinable by the Funds’ pricing services. The VC considers time-sensitive valuation issues, including those relating to market closures, changes in illiquid security values, model prices and other events that may have a potentially material impact on security values. On a quarterly basis the VC meets to review the results of back test reports generated by the Advisor’s internal risk department. The VC prepares for the Funds’ Board of Trustees an analysis relating to Level 3 positions. On a daily basis, the Trust’s fund accounting agent compares trade execution prices to the prior night’s valuation price for all positions which were traded and held the previous day. On a monthly basis, third party model prices are reviewed against internal model prices.
Transfers
Transfers into, and out of, Level 3 are valued utilizing values as of the beginning of the period. Transfers from Level 2 to Level 3 or from Level 3 to Level 2 are due to a decline or an increase in market activity (e.g., frequency of trades), which resulted in a lack of or increase in available market inputs to determine price.

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11: Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (“netting”) on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities that are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements. ASU 2011-11, was amended by ASU No. 2013-01, clarifying which investments and transactions are subject to the netting disclosure. The scope of the disclosure requirements is limited to derivative instruments, repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and securities lending transactions to the extent they are subject to an enforceable master netting arrangement or similar agreement. This information will enable users of the Funds’ financial statements to evaluate the effect or potential effect of netting arrangements on the Funds’ financial position. The ASU is effective for financial statements with fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Funds adopted the disclosure requirement on netting for the current reporting period.
For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset financial assets and financial liabilities across derivative types that are subject to master netting arrangements or similar agreements on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The following tables present, by counterparty and contract type, the Funds’ derivative assets and liabilities as of September 30, 2013.

The Advisor is also responsible for selecting brokers and dealers to execute purchase and sale orders for the portfolio transactions of each Fund, subject to its obligation to seek best execution.

10. Purchases and Redemption of Shares
Investors may purchase shares of a Fund at their net asset value (“NAV”), based on the next calculation of the NAV after the order is placed. Except as noted below, neither the Fund nor the distributor charges a sales charge or other transaction fee to purchase shares, although other institutions may impose transaction fees on shares purchased through them. The AQR Global Equity and AQR International Equity Funds’ Class Y shares charge subscription and redemption fees of 0.10% each, regardless of the period such shares may have been held. Prior to May 1, 2011, the Funds reserved the right to charge a redemption fee on redemption proceeds for shares that were held for less than 60 days. Effective May 1, 2011, this fee was eliminated for Class I, Class N and Class L Shares.
11. Risks and Concentrations
The Funds, at times, utilize substantial leverage in their investment program. Such leverage may take the form of trading on margin, investing in derivative instruments that are inherently leveraged, entering into repurchase transactions and entering into other forms of direct and indirect borrowing.
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
| | AQR Funds | | | | | | Annual Report | | | | | | September 2013 | | 175 |
| | | | | | | | | |
| | | | |
Notes to Financial Statements | | | September 30, 2013 | |
There is no guarantee that the Funds’ borrowing arrangement or other arrangements for obtaining leverage will continue to be available, or if available, will be available on terms and conditions acceptable to the Funds. Unfavorable economic conditions also could increase funding costs, limit access to the capital markets or result in a decision by lenders not to extend credit to the Funds. In addition, a decline in market value of the Funds’ assets may have particular adverse consequences in instances where they have borrowed money based on the market value of those assets. A decrease in market value of those assets may result in the lender (including derivative counterparties) requiring the Funds to post additional collateral or otherwise sell assets at a time when it may not be in the Funds’ best interest to do so.
The counterparties to the Funds’ currency forward, futures, option and swap contracts and repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements include affiliates of the Funds’ clearing brokers and other major financial institutions. While the Funds utilize multiple clearing brokers and counterparties, a concentration of credit risk exists because of balances held and transactions with a limited number of clearing brokers and counterparties.
By using derivative instruments, the Funds are exposed to the counterparty’s credit risk, the risk that derivative counterparties may not perform in accordance with the contractual provisions offset by the value of any collateral received. The Funds’ exposure to credit risk associated with counterparty non-performance is limited to the unrealized gains inherent in such transactions that are recognized in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds minimize counterparty credit risk through credit limits and approvals, credit monitoring procedures, executing master netting arrangements and managing margin and collateral requirements, as appropriate.
The Funds may have elements of risk not typically associated with investments in the United States of America due to concentrated investments in a limited number of countries or regions, which may vary throughout the year. Such concentrations may subject the Funds to additional risks resulting from political or economic conditions in such countries or regions and the possible imposition of adverse governmental laws or currency exchange restrictions could cause the securities and their markets to be less liquid and their prices to be more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies.
Swap agreements involve, to varying degrees, elements of market risk (generally equity price risk related to equity index swap agreements, interest rate risk related to bond swap agreements and commodity risk related to synthetic swap agreements utilizing futures) and exposure to loss in excess of the amount reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The notional amounts, which are disclosed as of period end in the swap tables included in the Schedules of Investments, reflect the current investment exposure each Fund has under the swap agreement which may exceed the net asset value of the Fund.
The Funds are not limited in the percentage of their assets that may be invested in convertible securities. Convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible securities of similar quality. The market values of convertible securities tend to decline as interest rates increase and, conversely, to increase as interest rates decline. However, the convertible security’s market value tends to reflect the market price of the common stock of the issuing company when that stock price is greater than the convertible’s “conversion price,” which is the predetermined price at which the convertible security could be exchanged for the associated stock.
Convertible securities and non-convertible income producing securities are subject to certain risks, including (i) if interest rates go up, the value of convertible securities and non-convertible income-producing securities in the Funds’ portfolio generally will decline; (ii) during periods of declining interest rates, the issuer of a security may exercise its option to prepay principal earlier than scheduled, forcing the Funds to reinvest in lower yielding securities (call or prepayment risk); and (iii) during periods of rising interest rates, the average life of certain types of securities may be extended because of slower than expected principal payments (extension risk).
Credit risk is the risk that one or more securities in the Funds’ portfolio will decline in price, or fail to pay interest or principal when due, because the issuer of the security experiences a decline in its financial status. The Funds’ investments in convertible and nonconvertible debt securities involve credit risk. However, in general, lower rated securities carry a greater degree of risk that the issuer will lose its ability to make interest and principal payments, which could have a negative impact on the Funds’ net asset value or dividends.
If a Fund invests in illiquid investments, it may experience difficulty in selling the investments in a timely manner at the price that it believes the investments are worth. In addition, market conditions may cause the Fund to experience

Notes to Financial Statements | | | September 30, 2013 | |
temporary mark-to-market losses, especially in less liquid positions, even in the absence of any selling of investments by the Fund.
Each Fund is subject to market risk, which is the risk that the markets on which the Fund’s investments trade will increase or decrease in value. Market risk applies to every Fund investment. Prices may fluctuate widely over short or extended periods in response to company, market or economic news. Markets also tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising and falling prices. If there is a general decline in the securities and other markets, your investment in a Fund may lose value, regardless of the individual results of the securities and other instruments in which the Fund invests.
A Fund may have investments that appreciate or decrease significantly in value over short periods of time. This volatility may cause the Fund’s net asset value per share to experience significant increases or declines in value over short periods of time.
As of September 30, 2013, a substantial portion of the AQR Global Equity, AQR International Equity, AQR Emerging Defensive Equity, AQR International Defensive Equity, AQR International Momentum, AQR Tax-Managed International Momentum and AQR International Core Equity Funds’ net assets consisted of issuers that are denominated in foreign currencies. Changes in currency exchange rates will affect the value of and investment income from such securities.
12. Line of Credit
Effective March 1, 2013 and terminating on March 1, 2014, the Trust had renewed a committed $175,000,000 syndicated line of credit with Bank of America, N.A., as the Administrative Agent. Borrowing, if any, under this arrangement bore interest at the sum of (a) 1.0% per annum plus (b) the higher of (i) the Federal Funds Rate or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate, the amount of such excess, which was paid quarterly. The maximum loan amount outstanding per Fund was the lesser of an amount which did not exceed the borrowing limits set forth in the Funds’ Prospectus and/or Registration Statement and did not cause the Asset Coverage Ratio for all borrowings to drop below 500%. The agreement is subject to an annual commitment fee which is payable in arrears on a quarterly basis. In the event of a draw upon the line of credit, investments of the responsible Fund may be designated as collateral until its loan is repaid in full. Funds with less than $25,000,000 in assets are ineligible to draw upon the line of credit. For the period ended September 30, 2013, the Funds did not have any outstanding borrowings under this agreement.
13. Principal Ownership
As of September 30, 2013, the Funds had individual shareholder accounts owning more than 5% of the total shares outstanding of the Fund as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
FUND | | NUMBER OF SHAREHOLDERS | | | TOTAL PERCENTAGE INTEREST HELD | |
AQR Global Equity Fund | | | 2 | | | | 96.00 | % |
AQR International Equity Fund | | | 3 | | | | 55.40 | % |
AQR Tax-Managed Small Cap Momentum Fund | | | 3 | | | | 38.10 | % |
AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund | | | 2 | | | | 47.90 | % |
Significant shareholder transactions by these shareholders, if any, may impact the Fund’s performance.
14. Subsequent Events
The Funds have evaluated subsequent events through the date of issuance of this report and have determined that there are no material events that would require accrual or disclosure.
In October 2013, the Board of Trustees of the AQR Funds (the “Board of Trustees”) designated the Class R6 Share Class of the AQR Global Equity Fund and the AQR International Equity Fund. In addition, the Board of Trustees approved the preparation, execution and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) of a post-effective amendment to the AQR Funds registration statement on Form N-1A (“Registration Statement”) in order to register each Fund’s Class R6 Shares of beneficial interest with the SEC. The Registration Statement was filed with the SEC on October 31, 2013 and is currently proposed to go effective 60 days thereafter.

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the schedules of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AQR Global Equity Fund, AQR International Equity Fund, AQR Emerging Defensive Equity Fund, AQR International Defensive Equity Fund, AQR U.S. Defensive Equity Fund, AQR Momentum Fund, AQR Small Cap Momentum Fund, AQR International Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed Small Cap Momentum Fund, AQR Tax-Managed International Momentum Fund, AQR Core Equity Fund , AQR Small Cap Core Equity Fund and AQR International Core Equity Fund (fourteen of the portfolios constituting AQR Funds, hereinafter referred to as the “Funds”) at September 30, 2013, and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at September 30, 2013 by correspondence with the custodian, brokers, and transfer agents and the application of alternative auditing procedures where confirmation of securities purchased had not been received, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Fund Expense Examples (Unaudited) |
As a shareholder of the Trust, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; and other Fund expenses. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period as indicated below.
Actual Expenses
The table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid for the Period Ended 9/30/13” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. Each Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of the expenses incurred by the underlying investments in which the Fund invests. These expenses are not included in the table.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The table below also provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed annual rate of return of 5% before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund and other funds by comparing this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of other funds. The Fund will indirectly bear its pro rata share of the expenses incurred by the underlying investments in which the Fund invests. These expenses are not included in the table.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore, the hypothetical example is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.
