Dear Fellow Shareholder,
On behalf of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, I would like to thank you for your continued support and confidence in our products as we look forward to continuing to serve you and your financial adviser in the future. We value the trust you have placed in us.
This annual report is provided to you with the intent of presenting a comprehensive review of the investments of each of your funds. The Securities and Exchange Commission requires that annual and semi-annual reports be sent to all shareholders, and we believe this report to be an important part of the investment process. In addition to providing a comprehensive review, this report also provides a discussion of accounting policies as well as matters presented to shareholders that may have required their vote.
We believe it is important to recognize and understand current market conditions in order to provide a context for reading this report. The positive returns experienced in the equity markets for the trailing 12 months ending October 31, 2007, mask the volatility experienced along the way, with significant pullbacks occurring in February-March and July-August. The Federal Reserve was on hold for most of the past twelve months but more recently in September and October lowered its target for the federal funds rate by 0.50% and 0.25% respectively. The rate reductions by the Federal Reserve signaled an effort to inject liquidity and stability to the markets which have been adversely affected by concerns over subprime debt. While Gross Domestic Product growth remains positive, investor concerns over the extent to which subprime debt may affect consumer spending and persistently high oil prices have been a check on market returns. For the 12 months ending October 31, 2007, the Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 17.94%, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index returned 14.56%, and the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index returned 5.38%. Please keep in mind it is important to maintain a diversified portfolio as investment returns have historically been difficult to predict.
In addition to your active involvement in the investment process, we firmly believe that a financial adviser is a key resource to help you build a complete picture of your current and future financial needs. Financial advisers are familiar with the market’s history, including long-term returns and volatility of various asset classes. With your financial advisor, you can develop an investment program that incorporates factors such as your goals, your investment timeline, and your risk tolerance.
Please contact your financial adviser if you have any questions about the contents of this report, and thanks again for the confidence you have placed in us.
Sincerely,
John K. Carter | Christopher A. Staples |

TA IDEX American Century Large Company Value
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The portfolio provided solid returns despite a challenging market environment. Over the period, growth stocks significantly outperformed value across the capitalization spectrum. Investors generally favored companies that were already strong performers; this momentum bias did not fit well with the portfolio’s investment approach, which seeks stocks that are undervalued by the market.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX American Century Large Company Value Class A returned 9.54%. By comparison its primary and secondary benchmarks, the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500”) and the Russell 1000 Value Index (“Russell 1000 Value”), returned 14.56% and 10.83%, respectively. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.17%, 1.19%, 1.07%, and 0.85%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio’s stake in the information technology (“IT”) sector was a top contributor to performance versus the benchmark. A significant holding was software giant Microsoft Corporation (“Microsoft”), which benefited from strong sales of its new Vista operating system and Office 2007. Microsoft’s announcement last summer of a $20-billion stock buyback also boosted its shares.
Hewlett-Packard Company was another strong IT contributor. The company raised its financial forecast as it continued to gain ground in the personal computer (“PC”) market and moved into high-end enterprise printing equipment.
In consumer staples, a preference for large industry leaders proved to be advantageous as many of these names outperformed the benchmark. One top performer was Unilever plc, a foreign-based, global supplier of foods, home goods, and personal products with a strong presence in the U.S. market. Its stock benefited from the company’s stronger-than-expected revenue growth and its progress in cost-cutting efforts.
The portfolio also held a large position in The Kroger Co. (“Kroger”), the second-largest food retailer in the U.S. Kroger’s stock rose 35% as the company regained market share by tailoring its products and service offerings to its customers’ buying behaviors.
The utilities sector provided PPL Corporation (“PPL”) and Exelon Corporation (“Exelon”), two of the portfolio’s strongest performers relative to the benchmark. Headquartered in Pennsylvania, and a low-cost producer of nuclear- and coal-generated energy, PPL produces and delivers electricity to customers in the U.S., the UK and Latin America. The company reported solid 2006 earnings and reaffirmed its positive outlook for 2007.
Exelon, which distributes electricity to customers in Illinois and Pennsylvania and gas to customers in the Philadelphia area, is the nation’s largest nuclear generator. The company’s nuclear plants benefited as the cost of power from competitors’ gas-fired plants increased.
An underweight in materials hampered results as the sector generated strong returns for the Russell 1000 Value. While a position in steel producer, Nucor Corporation was a bright spot (as the company reported growing sales and pricing power), the portfolio generally held smaller-than-the-benchmark positions in metals, mining, and chemical stocks. Many of these companies have reported exceptionally strong earnings, which has in turn attracted a large number of investors. (The metals and mining segment was up nearly 50% over the period; chemicals rose 25%.) Because the management team believes these current earnings are unsustainable, it has limited the portfolio’s exposure to these industries.
The financials sector was the portfolio’s weakest performer. Many financial firms came under pressure amid the fallout in the sub-prime lending category. Although the management team’s valuation work led the portfolio away from real estate investment trusts, its holdings among thrifts and mortgage finance companies were a drag on relative results. Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), a top-detracting stock, made slow progress in implementing new accounting systems, which dampened its near-term prospects for reduced regulatory oversight.
A modest position in MGIC Investment Corporation, the nation’s largest private mortgage insurer, hurt performance as the company was hampered by the housing slowdown and significant financial losses from a joint venture involved in restructuring sub-prime mortgages.

NOTES
(1) The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock (S&P 500) Index and the Russell 1000 Value (Russell 1000 Value) Index are unmanaged indices used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an Index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return; and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | 1,000.00 | | 1,010.24 | | 0.85 | | 4.30 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.86 | | 0.85 | | 4.32 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

MARKET ENVIRONMENT
By region, Asia-Pacific was the strongest performing region for the period followed by North America and Europe. Performance in the Asia-Pacific region was broad-based with total returns achieved in each of the major countries within this region: Hong Kong 73.78%, Singapore 56.62%, Australia 42.97% and Japan 12.21%. These strong returns were fueled by robust economic growth being generated by emerging economies within the region and those countries which benefit from this growth. The rapid urbanization of China in particular benefited property companies that were able to take advantage of this growth, including Hong Kong-based property developers of residential and commercial space which have expanded into mainland China.
Within Europe, the United Kingdom (“UK”) property stocks were particular laggards returning (13.05)% during the period. The UK has been beset by concerns of decelerating job growth, particularly in the financial district of London. Sentiment has turned for the worse as the expectation increases that property yields will increase in the coming year. As valuations become increasingly attractive, portfolio strategy of being underweight the UK property stocks may be reconsidered during the coming year.
Relative outperformance versus the benchmark was generated primarily by stock picking in Hong Kong, Japan, the United States and Canada. In Hong Kong, overweight positions in mainland residential developers Agile Property Holdings Limited and Guangzhou R&F Properties Co., Ltd. contributed to relative returns as each of these positions returned over 100% during the year. In Japan, an overweight position in Tokyo-based office companies also contributed to relative performance, including Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd. which is primarily a developer and landlord of office and condominium properties in the five central wards of Tokyo. Office fundamentals in Tokyo continue to improve, with increasing rent increases and low vacancy levels. Top performers in the U.S. included Hilton Hotels Corporation which appreciated sharply as a result of the announcement during the summer that it would be taken private by the The Blackstone Group, Inc. Archstone Communities Inc., a national apartment Real Estate Investment Trust (“REIT”), appreciated as the result of being taken private at a sharp premium. Federal Realty Investment Trust and Ventas, Inc., U.S. shopping center and healthcare REITs, respectively, also contributed to relative performance. Canadian holding Sunrise Senior Living, Inc. significantly contributed to relative performance as the result of being acquired at a sharp premium by a U.S. healthcare REIT during the year.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Clarion Global Real Estate Securities Class A returned 14.79%. By comparison its benchmark, the S&P/Citigroup World Property Index (“WPI”), returned 13.91%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.13%, 1.14%, 1.06%, and 0.88%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
TA IDEX Clarion Global Real Estate Securities offers a global strategy for real estate securities investors in the U.S. The portfolio generally owns between 80-110 real estate stocks with the goal of outperforming the WPI. The portfolio seeks to own attractively priced stocks that own property in markets with favorable underlying real estate fundamentals. The global universe of public real estate companies is approximately three times the size of the U.S. public company universe, which offers additional choices and diversification opportunities to the manager.
The rationale for a global listed property strategy remains very much intact including diversification via low correlation to broad equities and bonds, attractive current yield, attractive valuations and the spread of the REIT structure globally. This remains true even under the possible scenario of slowing global economic growth over the coming year. Investment themes looking out to 2008 include a continuing emphasis on investing in higher growth regions of the world, including the Asia-Pacific region, and looking for opportunities in select markets which are currently under-represented in the listed markets but which show stable to improving property fundamentals. Given the increased volatility in global equity markets, portfolio strategy will be to position itself with an orientation to top quality both by management team, strategy and physical properties.

NOTES
(1) The S&P/Citigroup World Property (Citigroup World Property) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
The Fund is non-diversified. Investments in a “non-diversified” fund may be subject to specific risks such as susceptibility to single economic, political or regulatory events and may be subject to greater loss than investments in a diversified fund. The risks of investing in REITs are similar to investing directly in real estate. Investing in real estate presents its own risks, including declining property values, overbuilding, low occupancy rates from commercial properties, rising operating expenses and interest rates, as well as taxes and other regulatory issues. This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this Fund. Investments in global securities involve risks relating to political, social and economic developments abroad, foreign currency contracts for hedging, as well as risks resulting from the differences between the regulations to which U.S. and foreign issuer markets are subject. This Fund is closed to new investments.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.71 | | 0.88 | | 4.47 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Evergreen Health Care
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
During the 2007 fiscal year ending October 31, 2007 the overall market posted solid returns but with higher levels of volatility than seen in several years due to numerous global and domestic factors. Despite the short term sell-off in the Chinese market in early 2007 and a building evidence of a slowing U.S. economy, the first half of the period saw positive performance across sectors. During the second half of the year, investors generally began to favor larger cap more liquid investments as the dual U.S. housing market downturn and sub-prime credit driven liquidity crisis delivered capital market consequences felt on a global basis. U.S. financial and consumer stocks generally posted negative returns while returns in health care were mixed.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Evergreen Health Care, Class A returned 13.71%. By comparison its benchmark, Standard and Poor’s 1500 Super Composite Health Care Index (“S&P 1500 Health Care”), returned 11.12%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.24%, 1.24%, 1.24%, and 0.90%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio outperformed the S&P 1500 Health Care over the fiscal year due to diversification across market caps, geographies and industry groups as well as our continued focus on intensive bottom-up research. Our investment process is disciplined in our focus on growth opportunities trading at significant discounts to intrinsic worth. We emphasize positive business momentum in the medium and long terms as well as the overall financial strength of the company. We made significant industry reallocations as we lowered exposure to biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies by consolidating into high conviction stocks such as BioMarin Pharmaceutical Inc. (“BioMarin”), Isis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Merck & Co., Inc., while selling companies such as Wyeth, Genzyme Corporation and Johnson & Johnson where growth prospects were lackluster. We increased weights in equipment and supplies companies such as Hologic, Inc. and Inverness Medical Innovations, Inc. as well as life sciences tools and services entity Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., all of which exhibited attractive growth and valuation characteristics.
Our largest contributor to performance during the course of the year was superior stock selection in a number of areas including chemicals, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals and equipment and supplies. The top performer was Bayer AG, the German chemical concern engaged in successful transformation to a health care company, which benefited from synergies gained through 2006’s acquisition of Schering AG. Several biotechnology companies including BioMarin and Alexion Pharmaceuticals, Inc. provided strong upside based on good product momentum. Within major pharmaceuticals, our underweight allocations to Pfizer Inc., Johnson & Johnson and Eli Lilly and Company aided relative performance. In the equipment industry, strong product momentum from defibrillator manufacturer ZOLL Medical Corporation and from genetic diagnostic test manufacturer Gen-Probe Incorporated led those companies to post revenue and earnings growth above market expectations leading to price increases.
The largest individual stock detractor was Inyx, Inc., an emerging pharmaceutical company engaged in developing proprietary medication delivery technologies and products for the respiratory and dermatological markets. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection after a buyout offer fell through sending shares tumbling. Our lack of exposure to specific niches in the providers and services area also proved detrimental to performance as several of the pharmaceutical benefit managers, including Express Scripts, Inc. and Medco Health Solutions, Inc., sustained strong gains during the year. Finally, several of our foreign holdings underperformed during the period after several years of strong performance. These included Novartis AG (ADS), Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and AstraZeneca PLC.
Our investment approach continues to be diversified with respect to countries and market capitalizations. Our process is research driven focusing on a bottom-up look at each company to determine its growth potential underscored by valuation support prior to its inclusion in the portfolio. We will also be seeking opportunities across the health care sector to take advantage of non-mainstream investments including restructurings, asset stories, spin-offs and other special situations. As always, we pay close attention to risk analysis and management.
Our current exposure is in line with previous time periods in that we have diversification across several health care industries with high absolute weights in biotechnology and pharmaceuticals.

NOTES
(1) The S&P 1500 Super Composite Health Care (S&P Super Composite Health Care) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
The Fund is non-diversified. Investments in a “non-diversified” fund and sector funds may be subject to specific risks such as susceptibility to single economic, political, or regulatory events, and may be subject to greater loss than investments in a diversified fund. This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this Fund.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.61 | | 0.90 | | 4.57 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Jennison Growth
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Equity markets posted strong returns in the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007. The Russell 1000® Growth Index (“Russell 1000 Growth”) advanced 19.23% while the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500”) rose 14.56%, marking the first time in several years that growth stocks outperformed the broader market. Strong US economic growth began to slow, but continued strength overseas, especially in emerging markets, helped drive US expansion. Reflecting in part the rapid development of emerging economies, the prices of commodities, such as metals and agricultural products, maintained elevated levels. Oil prices continued to rise – to record highs – and have shown no signs of abating. At the same time, the US dollar weakened against most major currencies. Inflation, while still largely contained, remains a risk. Corporate earnings growth began to slow, with S&P 500 earnings growth failing to break into the double digits for the first time in several years in 2007’s third quarter. Negative earnings revisions became less uncommon, with financial, retail, and homebuilding companies, along with some energy names, bearing the brunt. Rising energy prices, higher mortgage payments, and reduced home equity, combined to help bring on a much heralded slowdown in consumer spending. Employment, however, remained healthy. Problems in the sub-prime mortgage market, evident early in the year, spread as 2007 progressed. The ensuing credit crunch led to heightened market volatility, especially in July and August. Major financial institutions with balance sheets exposed to structured investment vehicles were hit, some hard. With fears of a serious slowdown in economic growth, the Federal Reserve Board lowered the federal funds rate in September for the first time since June 2003. The 50-basis-point cut spurred a stock market rally at the end of the portfolio’s fiscal year.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Jennison Growth Class A returned 18.59%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth, returned 19.23%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.30%, 1.23%, 1.20%, and 0.87%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio is built from the bottom up, with stocks selected one at a time, based on the fundamentals of individual companies rather than on overarching themes. Stock selection in the information technology sector was the greatest contributor to positive relative performance, as Research in Motion Limited (“RIMM”), Apple Inc. (“Apple”), and Juniper Networks, Inc. (“Juniper”) posted impressive gains. RIMM advanced on the strength of the BlackBerry brand, as new subscribers grew at a solid pace and existing users embraced new product designs. Apple’s growth has been driven by the strength of iPod sales and a resurgence in Macintosh computer sales. The company should continue to benefit from its creativity and innovation in product design and marketing, most recently exhibited in the iPhone. Juniper’s investments in products, and sales force and channel strategy are yielding operating leverage, spurring acceleration in revenue and earnings per share (“EPS”) growth at the telecommunications equipment provider.
Stock selection was also strong in materials, where Monsanto Company (“Monsanto”) posted a triple-digit advance. The agricultural-seed and biotechnology company’s leading market share position, brand strength, first-mover advantage, operational performance, and technological innovation are helping Monsanto benefit from a bullish agriculture cycle.
Schlumberger Limited was a chief contributor in energy. The company has benefited from a resurgence in capital spending on energy-producing activity and from its business and geographic mix. Suncor Energy Inc. and Occidental Petroleum Corporation also performed well.
The consumer sectors were the greatest detractors from performance, as retailers, including Macy’s, Inc. (“Macy’s”) and Kohl’s Corporation, were weak. Declines in other consumer names, such as Whole Foods Market, Inc. (“Whole Foods”) and Starbucks Corporation (“Starbucks”), reflected company transitioning from stages of rapid expansion and high growth to more modest growth. We still like Whole Foods’ numerous competitive advantages within the rapidly growing natural products industry – size and scale of operations, strong brand image, and marketing and merchandising expertise. We eliminated our positions in Starbucks and Macy’s.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners Investors Value
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Weaker housing prices and growing inflation concerns are on the minds of both Wall Street and Main Street, a stark contrast to the experience of recent years.
Fiscal 2007 started with strong corporate earnings and robust private equity activity. Several years of low credit losses and the ample liquidity provided support to consumers and investors. Private equity offered an alternative bid for stocks and generated high fees for financial institutions. Emerging economies remained robust, with growing demand for oil and other commodities pushing prices higher, while the dollar continued to slide. As the year progressed, gross domestic product (“GDP”) slowed and the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) became increasingly concerned about inflation.
During the summer months, investors became increasingly worried that a weaker housing market and broader sub-prime lending exposure could spill over into the rest of the economy. Growing concerns that hundreds of billions of dollars of leveraged loan commitments would end up on banks’ balance sheets and force them to take major mark-to-market charges contributed to already deteriorating credit markets. After reaching a high of 1553 on July 19th, the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500”) fell more than 9% to 1406 on August 15th. Central banks responded by injecting massive amounts of liquidity, and the Fed reduced the federal funds rate (“fed funds rate”) by an aggressive 50 basis points to 4.75% on September 18th.
Structured investment products, such as collateralized debt obligations, that were intended to redistribute risk may have exacerbated the problem. High credit ratings gave investors false comfort and masked the impact of weak underwriting standards and declining home prices. As a result of uncertainty, liquidity in these instruments has declined dramatically forcing financial institutions to recognize large mark-to-market losses. Balancing concerns about further economic deterioration with fears of inflation, the Fed cut the fed funds rate by a more measured 25 basis points on October 31st. Benchmark crude oil finished fiscal 2007 at $94.53, up 61% over the preceding 12 months, while the dollar weakened about 13.5% against the Euro.
Leading sectors of the S&P 500 during the period included energy (38.36%), materials (34.11%) and information technology (26.90%). The remaining sectors, with the exception of financials (-2.53%) and consumer discretionary (-0.07%), also posted positive returns.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ending October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners Investors Value Class A returned 11.90%. By comparison, its primary and secondary benchmarks, the S&P 500 and the Russell 1000 Value Index (“Russell 1000 Value”), returned 14.56% and 10.83%, respectively. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.21%, 1.20%, 1.19% and 0.89%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio’s outperformance relative to the Russell 1000 Value during the period was mainly attributable to security selection, which was strongest in consumer discretionary and financials and weakest in telecommunication services and health care. Sector allocation had a negative affect to the overall performance. An underweight position in energy and an overweight in consumer discretionary detracted from performance. However, an underweight in financials and an overweight in industrials were overall contributors to the portfolio’s performance.
Top contributors to performance during the period included Nokia Corporation, McDonald’s Corporation, Textron Inc., Altria Group, Inc., and GlobalSantaFe Corporation. We continue to hold these stocks. Stocks that detracted from performance came from the financial sector and included Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., Capital One Financial Corporation, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”), Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc. and Wachovia Corporation. Financial stocks remain under pressure due to sub-prime mortgage exposure and the concerns that this weakness will spill over into the broader economy.
We have reduced our financial and health-care sector exposure in the portfolio and increased our information technology (“IT”) and industrials weightings. We are currently overweight in the consumer discretionary, IT and industrials sectors and underweight in the energy, financials and utilities sectors compared with the Russell 1000 Value.
In this environment, we continue to favor large cap companies with self sufficient balance sheets, strong business franchises and sustainable cash flow. We manage the portfolio with a focus on high quality companies and look for opportunities created by the increased market volatility.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES \
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

TA IDEX Marsico Growth
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
US large capitalization equities, as measured by the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500”), posted overall strong gains for the one-year period ended October 31, 2007 despite considerable intra-period volatility and periodic “headwinds.” Equities were faced with a number of seemingly contradictory data points about the strength and trajectory of the US economy, with concerns regarding inflationary pressures on the one hand and fears of a significant economic slowdown on the other. Large capitalization equity benchmarks such as the S&P 500 and Russell 1000 Growth Index (“Russell 1000 Growth”) had total returns of 14.56% and 19.23%, respectively, for the twelve-month period ending October 31, 2007.
From the perspective of economic sector performance (using Global Industry Classification Standards Classifications (“GICS”) for the S&P 500 as a reference point), gains were relatively widespread although market leadership was quite decisive. Eight of ten sectors in the S&P 500 had a positive return. Energy, materials, and information technology (“IT”) were the top-performing sectors. Utilities, telecommunication services, industrials, and consumer staples also had solid absolute returns.
At an industry level, similar general strength prevailed, with the majority of groups able to post positive returns. In several areas, these gains were quite robust in nature. The top-performing groups included technology hardware and equipment, capital goods, software and services, consumer services, and food beverage and tobacco. Areas of weakness during the reporting period included banks and retailing.
Large capitalization equities benefited as the market, particularly in the latter stages of the twelve-month period, seemed to experience a shift in leadership that increasingly favored larger-sized, higher-quality, “franchise growth” companies. Within the US large capitalization area, “growth” equities outperformed “value” equities for the period. Large capitalization “growth” stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Growth, outperformed large capitalization “value” stocks, as measured by the Russell 1000 Value Index, by approximately 9% last year.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Marsico Growth Class A returned 29.85%. By comparison, its benchmarks, the S&P 500 and the Russell 1000 Growth returned, 14.56% and 19.23%, respectively. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.20%, 1.17%, 1.02%, and 0.86%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
During the reporting period, the portfolio’s average sector allocations emphasized the consumer discretionary, financials, industrials, and health care sectors. The portfolio invested in all ten GICS economic sector during the twelve-month period, with the financials, energy, utilities, and consumer staples sectors averaging a significantly underweighted posture relative to the portfolio’s primary benchmark, the S&P 500.
The portfolio outperformed the S&P 500 for the annual period. Consumer discretionary positions were an area of emphasis for the portfolio over the one-year period. The portfolio’s investments in the sector posted a collective gain of more than 27%, led by hotel/casino operators MGM MIRAGE (+113%), Wynn Resorts, Limited (+135%), and Las Vegas Sands Corp. (+76%). These positions were among the portfolio’s top-performing individual positions.
Stock selection within the financials sector also contributed materially to the portfolio’s performance. Specific individual holdings that impacted performance included Chinese banks, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (+112%) and China Merchants Bank Co., Ltd. (+169%), and diversified financials company The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc. (+32%). The portfolio’s underweighted posture in this sector also aided performance, as it was among the weaker-performing sectors in the benchmark index.
In addition, stock selection in the IT sector was an additional area of strength for the portfolio, led by software and services holdings. Apple Inc. (+74%), Cisco Systems, Inc. (+37%), MasterCard Incorporated (+87%), and Google Inc. (+52%) were among the largest contributors to the portfolio’s performance in this sector.
There were a few areas of weakness for the portfolio during the period. Stock selection in the health care and industrials sectors detracted from performance, as did an underweighted posture in the energy sector, which was the equity markets’ strongest performing sector. In health care, our position in Genentech, Inc., a biotechnology company (-11%), negatively impacted performance. With regard to industrials, the portfolio’s positions posted a collective gain of 19%. While this performance was strong in an absolute basis, it trailed the S&P 500’s industrials sector return of 21%.

NOTES
(1) The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock (S&P 500) Index and the Russell 1000 Growth (Russell 1000 Growth) Index are unmanaged indices used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.78 | | 0.86 | | 4.40 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX MFS International Equity
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Equity market valuation levels appear reasonable, although investors’ concerns over slowing growth in the U.S. and sub-prime lending in particular have increased volatility in equity markets globally. After strong relative performance, many small-cap and emerging markets stocks, as well as those in cyclical sectors, are trading at high valuations relative to where they have traded historically. With corporate profits higher than they have been in many years, we believe the risk to slowing profit growth has increased. Despite more volatility recently, we continue to pursue our disciplined process: identifying stocks that we believe will be able to generate above-average earnings growth with little volatility; and are trading at attractive valuations relative to our proprietary growth forecasts.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX MFS International Equity Class A returned 20.00%. By comparison, its benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International (EAFE) Index (“MSCI-EAFE”), returned 25.43%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, and Class C were 1.61%, 1.59%, and 1.51%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Security selection and, to a lesser extent, our underweighted position in the basic materials sector detracted from performance relative to the portfolio’s benchmark, the MSCI-EAFE, over the reporting period. No individual securities were among the portfolio’s top relative detractors.
Our overweighted position in the technology sector held back relative results. Electronics manufacturer Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. (South Korea) and printers and computer peripherals maker Canon Inc. (Japan) were principal detractors within this sector. Not owning strong-performing mobile phones maker Nokia Corporation (Finland) also hindered relative returns.
Auto and housing was among the portfolio’s top detracting sectors due to our underweighted position relative to the benchmark. No individual stocks within this sector were among the portfolio’s top detractors.
A combination of stock selection and an overweighted position in the leisure sector also detracted from relative performance. Within this sector, gaming operator William Hill PLC (United Kingdom) dampened relative results.
Several individual holdings within the otherwise strong financial services sector were among the portfolio’s most significant detractors. These included investment management company UBS AG (Switzerland), banking firm Credit Agricole S.A. (France), consumer finance firm Aeon Credit Service (Asia) Company Limited (Japan), and financial services firm Shinsei Bank, Limited (Japan).
Elsewhere, pharmaceutical and diagnostic company Roche Holding Ltd. and consumer products company Kao Corporation (Japan) held back relative returns.
During the reporting period, currency exposure was a detractor from relative performance. All of our investment decisions are driven by the fundamentals of each individual opportunity and, as such, it is common for the portfolio to have different currency exposure than the benchmark.
Our underweighted position in the financial services sector contributed to performance relative to the MSCI-EAFE. Private banking company Julius Baer Holding Ltd. (Switzerland) was a top relative contributor. Not owning poor-performing diversified financial services firm Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, Inc. (Japan) was also beneficial.
Security selection in the retailing sector was the primary contributor to relative results. A key driver within this sector was consumer products exporter Li & Fung Limited (Hong Kong).
Stocks in other sectors that aided relative returns included healthcare products maker Bayer AG (Germany), video game console maker Nintendo Co., Ltd. (Japan), power and gas company E.ON AG (Germany), communications provider Singapore Telecommunications Limited (Singapore), food company Nestle S.A. (Switzerland), and electrical distribution equipment manufacturer Schneider Electric SA (France). Avoiding pharmaceutical company Novartis AG (Switzerland) also benefited the portfolio.

NOTES
(1) The Morgan Stanley Capital International-Europe, Australasia, and Far East (MSCI-EAFE) Index is a widely recognized unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,017.02 | | 1.61 | | 8.19 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX PIMCO Real Return TIPS
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The primary focus during the year centered on concerns about the sub-prime mortgage sector that developed in 2007. During most of the year the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) focused on stronger economic data making it difficult for them to ease rates, as they focused on inflation concerns. Tight labor markets kept the unemployment rate relatively low and produced real wage gains for consumers that helped offset headwinds from the residential property market. In addition, measures of core inflation (consumer price inflation with the volatile food and energy prices stripped out) remained above the Fed’s targeted range. Weakness in the sub-prime mortgage sector produced a significant tightening of credit conditions for lower quality and first-time borrowers, yet another blow to an already soft housing market.
The Fed remained on hold throughout most of the year, after pausing in August 2006 with the federal funds rate (“fed funds rate”) at 5.25%. However, turmoil in the sub-prime market and the liquidity crunch in the asset-backed commercial paper market drove the Fed to take action in 2007. Initially, in August 2007, the Fed cut the discount rate, by 50 basis points (“bps”) to 5.75% to help alleviate liquidity concerns in the financial markets. Subsequently, the Fed met in September, and citing developments in the financial markets that have increased the uncertainty surrounding the economic outlook, cut both the fed funds and discount rates by 50 bps, to 4.75% and 5.25%, respectively. At the Fed’s October 31, 2007 meeting, they again cut the fed funds and the discount rates by another 25 bps, to 4.50% and 5.00%, respectively; but cited that the upside risks to inflation and the downside risks to economic growth are roughly equal indicating that more rate cuts may not be needed. At the end of October 2007 the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 4.47%, 13 basis points lower than at the start of the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX PIMCO Real Return TIPS Class A returned 5.27%. By comparison its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Global Real U.S. TIPS Index, returned 6.33%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 0.87%, 0.91%, 0.86%, and 0.73%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio’s investment process is based upon a long-term approach, which utilizes both top-down and bottom-up strategies. Top-down strategies focus on duration, yield curve positioning, volatility, and sector rotation, while bottom-up strategies drive the security selection process, facilitating the identification and analysis of undervalued securities. No single strategy dominates returns; the total return strategy relies on multiple sources of value added in a highly diversified portfolio.
During the twelve-month reporting period the portfolio’s performance was relatively stable despite a volatile market (most noticeable in the past three months) as we employed an overweight to Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (“TIPS”) in the portfolio in addition to an emphasis to emerging market currencies. We maintained a focus on quality, as the average credit rating of securities in the portfolio was held at the AA+ level during the reporting period.
The portfolio’s below benchmark duration, on average, detracted from performance over the period. The portfolio benefited from tactical adjustments and holdings in non-index securities. In particular, while holdings of mortgage-backed securities detracted from performance, holdings in emerging market currencies, a curve steepening bias in the United States and in the United Kingdom all proved sources of added value. Also, an overweight to short-maturity TIPS in the U.S. added to performance as the price of oil reached new records.

Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 4.75% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
The Fund is non-diversified. Investments in a “non-diversified” fund may be subject to specific risks such as susceptibility to single economic, political, or regulatory events, and may be subject to greater loss than investments in a diversified fund. In addition, this fund invests in derivatives that are subject to the additional risks of inaccurate market predictions, illiquid markets, adverse tax consequences, and leveraging.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The primary focus during the year centered on concerns about the sub-prime mortgage sector that developed in 2007. During most of the year the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) focused on stronger economic data making it difficult for them to ease rates, as they focused on inflation concerns. Tight labor markets kept the unemployment rate relatively low and produced real wage gains for consumers that helped offset headwinds from the residential property market. In addition, measures of core inflation (consumer price inflation with the volatile food and energy prices stripped out) remained above the Fed’s targeted range. Weakness in the sub-prime mortgage sector produced a significant tightening of credit conditions for lower quality and first-time borrowers, yet another blow to an already soft housing market.
The Fed remained on hold throughout most of the year, after pausing in August 2006 with the federal funds rate (“fed funds rate”) at 5.25%. However, turmoil in the sub-prime market and the liquidity crunch in the asset-backed commercial paper market drove the Fed to take action in 2007. Initially, in August 2007, the Fed cut the discount rate, by 50 basis points (bps) to 5.75% to help alleviate liquidity concerns in the financial markets. Subsequently, the Fed met in September, and citing developments in the financial markets that have increased the uncertainty surrounding the economic outlook, cut both the fed funds and discount rates by 50 bps, to 4.75% and 5.25%, respectively. At the Fed’s October 31, 2007 meeting, they again cut the fed funds and discount rates by another 25 bps, to 4.50% and 5.00%, respectively; but cited that the upside risks to inflation and the downside risks to economic growth are roughly equal indicating that more rate cuts may not be needed. At the end of October 2007 the benchmark ten-year Treasury yielded 4.47%, 13 basis points lower than at the start of the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31st, 2007, TA IDEX PIMCO Total Return Class A returned 6.01%. By comparison, its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, returned 5.38%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.06%, 0.99%, 0.97%, and 0.75%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio’s investment process is based upon a long-term approach, which utilizes both top-down and bottom-up strategies. Top-down strategies focus on duration, yield curve positioning, volatility, and sector rotation, while bottom-up strategies drive the security selection process, facilitating the identification and analysis of undervalued securities. No single strategy dominates returns; the total return strategy relies on multiple sources of value added in a highly diversified portfolio.
During the twelve-month reporting period the portfolio’s performance was relatively stable despite a volatile market (most noticeable in the past three months) as we employed curve steepening strategies; an underweight to investment-grade corporate bonds; and an emphasis to emerging market currencies. We maintained a focus on quality, as the average credit rating of securities in the portfolio was held at the AA+ level during the reporting period.
The portfolio benefited from tactical adjustments and holdings in non-index securities and direct holding of currency. In particular, holdings of emerging market currencies such as the
Brazilian real, the Russian ruble, and the Mexican peso more than offset the negative impact of an overweight in prime, AAA-rated, agency-guaranteed mortgage-backed securities, which lost ground as volatility soared this summer.
For the first part of the year, the portfolio’s main detractors were an above-benchmark duration, curve steepening strategies outside the United States (specifically in the United Kingdom (“UK”)), and an underweight to investment-grade corporate bonds. Strong monthly payroll and gross domestic readings in the U.S., a booming British economy, and strong earnings results meant higher yields in the U.S., expectations for rate increases in the UK, and further tightening of investment-grade spreads. In the second part of this year, however, sub-prime mortgage headlines increased, the credit crunch took hold, and volatility soared. Investors sought the quality of U.S. Treasury bonds and bid up expectations of interest rate cuts by the Fed. In the UK, investors cut back on expectations of rate hikes by the Bank of England. And, in July and August, corporate bonds sold off, driving spreads significantly higher. As a result, curve-steepening strategies in the U.S. and UK and an underweight to corporate bonds proved valuable.
As investors priced in greater expectations of cuts by the Fed, our underweight to the U.S. dollar began to pay significant dividends, most noticeably in September and October as all major developed and developing countries saw their currencies appreciate. Holdings of the Brazilian real, Mexican peso, Russian ruble, and Asian currencies like the Singaporean dollar and South Korean won all proved significantly valuable in the wake of a major sell-off of the U.S. dollar.
Out-of-index allocations proved valuable diversifiers over the past twelve months. Earlier this year, while an allocation to short-maturity Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (“TIPS”) detracted from performance, more recently this strategy has added value as the price of oil reached new records. While high yield bonds added to performance earlier this year on strong earnings results and low default levels, spreads widened significantly in the summer, thus detracting from overall performance.

The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The twelve months ended October 31, 2007 exhibited a seemingly benign stock market, with the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500”) posting a total return of 14.56%. A closer look, however, reveals turbulence: the S&P 500 had monthly declines in February 2007 and also during June and July. Such price action caused the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (“VIX”) to increase from 11.10 at the beginning of the period to 18.53 at the end – a nearly 67% increase.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock, Class A returned 6.82%. By comparison its benchmark, the S&P 500, returned 14.56%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class M were 2.14%, 2.74%, 2.76%, and 2.60%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
As part of its strategy, the portfolio sells S&P 500 call options and purchases put options as well as invests in the stocks comprising the S&P 500. Higher volatility levels noted above enabled the portfolio to sell calls at higher prices than prevailed early in the year.
LIQUIDATION AND DISSOLUTION
The TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock filed a proxy statement in early October, outlining a proposed plan for dissolution. By late November, the securities positions were liquidated. The diminishing asset size of TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock was a primary factor in the Board of Trustees approving and recommending the plan of liquidation and dissolution.
Gateway Investment Advisers, L.P. appreciates the opportunity to have served the TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock since its July 2002 inception.

NOTES
(1) The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock (S&P 500) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception, calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares and 1% for M shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares. Class C shares do not impose a sales charge. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares.Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
Investments that utilize options strategies may be subject to specific risks, including limited opportunity to participate in rising stock markets or increased risk during market declines. In general, mutual funds that invest in stocks are subject to risks including weaknesses in the market as a whole, in a particular industry, or in a specific holding, and from adverse political or economic developments here or abroad. Shareholders may lose some or all of the value of their guaranteed amount if they redeem before the end of the 5-year Guarantee Period. This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this Fund. TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock has been liquidated effective November 29, 2007.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUNDS EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
At October 31, 2007
(all amounts in thousands)
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds (“TA IDEX”) is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). TA IDEX American Century Large Company Value, TA IDEX Clarion Global Real Estate Securities, TA IDEX Evergreen Health Care, TA IDEX Jennison Growth, TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners Investors Value, TA IDEX Marsico Growth, TA IDEX MFS International Equity, TA IDEX PIMCO Real Return TIPS, TA IDEX PIMCO Total Return, and TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock, (each a “Fund” and collectively “the Funds”), are part of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds.
TA IDEX Clarion Global Real Estate Securities, TA IDEX Evergreen Health Care, and TA IDEX PIMCO Real Return TIPS are “non-diversified” under the 1940 Act. TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock was liquidated effective November 29, 2007.
In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or their affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
This report should be read in conjunction with the Funds’ current prospectus, which contain more complete information about the Funds.
In preparing the Funds’ financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
Multiple class operations, income and expenses: The Funds, except TA IDEX MFS International Equity and TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock, currently have four classes of shares, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class I. TA IDEX MFS International Equity currently has three classes of shares, Class A, Class B, and Class C. TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock currently has four classes of shares, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class M. Each of the above classes has a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Class I is only available for investment to certain affiliated asset allocation funds. Class B shares will convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.
Security valuations: The Funds value their investments at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), normally 4 p.m. ET, each day the NYSE is open for business. The Funds’ investments are valued at the last sale price or closing price on the day of valuation taken from the primary exchange where the security is principally traded.
Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.
Debt securities are valued based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.
Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.
Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded. Because many foreign securities markets and exchanges close prior to the close of the NYSE, closing prices for foreign securities in those markets or on those exchanges do not reflect the events that occur after that close. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Funds’ net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” As a result, foreign equity securities held by the Funds may be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ Administrative Valuation Committee, using guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
Other securities for which quotations are not readily available or whose values have been determined to be unreliable are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ Administrative Valuation Committee, using guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
Cash: Each Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, State Street Bank & Trust Company (“State Street”). On July 2, 2007, State Street acquired the parent company of Investors Bank & Trust Company. State Street has been contracted on behalf of the Funds to invest the excess cash into savings accounts, which at October 31, 2007 were paying an interest rate of 3.00%.
Throughout the year, the Funds may have cash overdraft balances. A fee is incurred on these overdrafts, calculated by multiplying the overdrafts by a rate based on the federal funds rate.
Commission recapture: The sub-advisers of certain Funds, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, have elected to place security transactions of the Funds with broker/dealers with which Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Commission Recapture Program. A Commission Recapture Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Funds. In no event will commissions paid by the Funds be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party.

Recaptured comissions during the year ended October 31, 2007 are included in net realized gains on the Statements of Operations and are summarized as follows:

| | | | |
TBA purchase commitments: The Funds may enter into “TBA” (to be announced) purchase commitments to purchase securities for a fixed price at a future date, typically not to exceed 45 days. TBA purchase commitments are considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to settlement date, in addition to the risk of decline in the value of the Funds’ other assets. Unsettled TBA purchase commitments are valued at the current value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described under Security Valuations.
Repurchase agreements: The Funds are authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Funds, through their custodian, State Street, receive delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. The Funds will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the security can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the security. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs may be incurred.
Securities lending: The Funds may lend securities to qualified borrowers, with State Street acting as the Funds’ lending agent. The Funds earn negotiated lenders’ fees. The Funds receive cash and/or securities as collateral against the loaned securities. Cash collateral received is invested in short term, interest bearing securities. The Funds monitor the market value of securities loaned on a daily basis and require collateral in an amount at least equal to the value of the securities loaned. The values of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at October 31, 2007, were as follows:
| | | | Cash | |
| | | | Collateral | |
Fund | | Value | | Received | |
TA IDEX American Century Large Company Value | | $ | 16,592 | | $ | 17,187 | |

Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes and interest rates. Since some of the Funds invest primarily in real estate securities, the net asset value per share may fluctuate more widely than the value of shares of a fund that invests in a broad range of industries.
Dividend income is recorded at managements’ estimate of the income included in distributions from the REIT investments. Distributions received in excess of the estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments. The actual amounts of income, return of capital and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after the fiscal year end and may differ from the estimated amounts.
Loan participations/ assignments: The Funds may purchase participations/assignments in commercial loans. Such indebtedness may be secured or unsecured. These investments may include standby financing commitments, including revolving credit facilities that obligate the Funds to supply additional cash to the borrowers on demand. Loan participations/assignments involve risks of insolvency of the lending banks or other financial intermediaries. As such, the Funds assume the credit risks associated with the corporate borrowers and may assume the credit risks associated with the interposed banks or other financial intermediaries. The Funds may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the agent banks and/or borrowers prior to the sale of these investments. Loan participations typically represent direct participation in loans to corporate borrowers, and generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending syndicates. The Funds may participate in such syndications, or can buy a portion of the loans, becoming part lenders. Loans are often administered by agent banks acting as agents for all holders. The agent banks administer the terms of the loans, as specified in the loan agreements. In addition, the agent banks are normally responsible for the collection of principal and interest payments from the corporate borrowers and the apportionment of these payments to the credit of all institutions that are parties to the loan agreements. Unless, under the terms of the loans or other indebtedness, the portfolios have direct recourse against the corporate borrowers, the Funds may have to rely on the agent banks or other financial intermediaries to apply appropriate credit remedies against corporate borrowers.

Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.
Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Funds combine fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.
Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.
Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions. These risks include revaluation of currencies, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values and possible adverse political, social and economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry, country or region.
Forward foreign currency contracts: The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are settled a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
Open forward foreign currency contracts at October 31, 2007 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.
Swap agreements: The Funds may enter into swap agreements to manage their exposure to interest rates and credit risk. Interest rate swap agreements involve commitments to pay/receive interest in exchange for a market-linked return, both based on notional amounts. In a credit default swap, one party makes a stream of payments to another party in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default by a third party, typically corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country, on its obligation. The portfolios may use credit default swaps to provide a measure of protection against defaults of sovereign issuers (i.e., to reduce risk where the portfolios owns or has exposure to the sovereign issuer) or to take an active long or short position with respect to the likelihood of a particular issuer’s default.
123
Entering into these agreements involves elements of credit, market and documentation risk in excess of the amounts recognized on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks involve the possibility that there will be no liquid market for these agreements, that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform or disagree as to the meaning of contractual terms in the agreements, and that there may be unfavorable changes in interest rates.
Swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers and vendors and the change in value, if any, is recorded as unrealized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. Payments received or made at the beginning of the measurement period are reflected as such on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. A liquidation payment received or made at the termination of the swap is recorded as realized gain or loss in the Statements of Operations. Net periodic payments are included as part of realized gain or loss on the Statements of Operations.
Open swaps agreements at October 31, 2007 are listed in the Schedule of Investments.
Futures contracts: The Funds may enter into futures contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms.
The underlying face amounts of open futures contracts at October 31, 2007 are listed in the Schedules of Investments. The variation margin receivable or payable, as applicable, is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Variation margin represents the additional payment due or excess deposits made in order to maintain the equity account at the required margin level.
Option contracts: The Funds may enter into options contracts to manage exposure to market fluctuations. Options are valued at the average of the bid and ask (“Mean Quote”) established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are imperfect correlation between the change in value of the securities held and the prices of the options contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market; and inability of the counterparty to meet the contracts terms. When the Funds write covered call or put options, an amount equal to the premium received by the Funds are included in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. Options are marked-to-market daily to reflect the current value of the option written.

*Contracts not in thousands.
Swaptions contracts: The Funds are authorized to write swaption contracts to manage exposure to fluctuations in interest rates and to enhance fund yield. Swaption contracts written by the Funds represent an option that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a previously agreed upon swap contract on a future date. If a written call option is exercised, the writer will enter a swap and is obligated to pay the fixed rate and receive a variable rate in exchange. Swaptions are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers.
When the Funds write swaptions, the premiums received are recorded as a liability and are subsequently adjusted to the current value of the swaptions. Changes in the value of the swaptions are reported as unrealized gains or losses in written options in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Gain or loss is recognized when the swaption contract expires or is closed. Premiums received from writing swaptions that expire or are exercised are treated by the Funds as realized gains from written options. The difference between the premium and the amount paid on affecting a closing purchase transaction is treated as a realized gain or loss.

Redemption fees: A short-term trading redemption fee may be assessed on any Fund’s shares in a fund account that are sold during the first five (5) NYSE trading days following their purchase date. This redemption fee will equal 2% of the amount redeemed and shares held the longest will be treated as being redeemed first and shares held the shortest as being redeemed last. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Funds received redemption fees which are located in the Funds’ Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations.
Foreign capital gains taxes: The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest, with respect to their investments in issuers existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned or repatriated and capital gains realized on the sale of such investments. The Funds accrue such taxes when the related income or capital gains are earned. Some countries require governmental approval for the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales earned by foreign investors. In addition, if there is deterioration in a country’s balance of payments or for other reasons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad.

Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of all or a portion of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. Each Trustee who is a participant in the Plan may elect that the earnings, losses or gains credited to his or her deferred fee amounts be determined based on a deemed investment in any series of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, including the Funds. The right of a participant to receive a distribution from the Plan of the deferred fees is an unsecured claim against the general assets of all series of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds. The pro rata liability to the Funds of all deferred fees in the Plan as of October 31, 2007, amounted to the following:
Fund | | Deferred Fees | |
TA IDEX American Century Large Company Value | | $ | 10 | |

Retirement plan: Under a retirement plan (the “Emeritus Plan”) available to the Independent Trustees, each Independent Trustee is deemed to have elected to serve as Trustee Emeritus of Transamerica IDEX upon his or her termination of service, other than removal for cause, for a maximum period of five years determined by his or her years of service as a Trustee.
The amounts shall be accrued by Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds on a pro rata basis allocable to each Transamerica IDEX Mutual Fund based on the relative assets of the fund. If retainers increase in the future, past accruals (and credits) will be adjusted upward so that 50% of the Trustee’s current retainer is accrued and credited at all times. Upon death, disability or termination of service, other than removal for cause, amounts deferred become payable to a Trustee Emeritus (or his/her beneficiary). Upon the commencement of service as Trustee Emeritus, compensation will be paid on a quarterly basis during the time period that the Trustee Emeritus is allowed to serve as such.

| | Emeritus Fees | |

NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
The Funds have not made any provisions for federal income or excise taxes due to their policy to distribute all of their taxable income and capital gains to their shareholders and otherwise qualify as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatment for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, swaps, option contracts, futures contracts and Post October loss deferrals.
Therefore, distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ significantly in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Financial records are not adjusted for temporary differences. These reclassifications are as follows:
Fund | | Shares of beneficial interest, unlimited shares authorized | | Undistributed (accumulated) net investment income (loss) | | Undistributed (accumulated) net realized gain (loss) from investment securities | |

NOTE 5. REGULATORY PROCEEDINGS
There continues to be significant federal and state regulatory activity relating to financial services companies, particularly mutual fund companies and their investment advisers. As part of an ongoing investigation regarding potential market timing, recordkeeping and trading compliance issues and matters affecting the Funds’ investment adviser, TFAI, and certain affiliates and former employees of TFAI, the SEC staff has indicated that it is likely to take some action against TFAI and certain of its affiliates at the conclusion of the investigation. The potential timing and the scope of any such action is difficult to predict. Although the impact of any action brought against TFAI and/or its affiliates is difficult to assess at the present time, the Funds currently believe that the likelihood that any such action will have a material adverse impact is remote. It is important to note that the Funds are not aware of any allegation of wrong doing against them and their Board at the time this annual report is printed. Although it is not anticipated that these developments will have an adverse impact on the Funds, there can be no assurance at this time. TFAI and its affiliates are actively working with the SEC in regard to this matter; however, the exact resolution cannot be determined at this time. TFAI will take such actions that it deems necessary or appropriate to continue providing management services to the Funds and to bring all matters to an appropriate conclusion. TFAI and/or its affiliates, and not the Funds, will bear the costs regarding these regulatory matters.
NOTE 6. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the accounting and disclosure of 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 not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year.
Adoption of FIN 48 is effective during the first required financial reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. Management adopted FIN 48 on September 28, 2007.
Implementation of FIN 48 requires Management of the Funds to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the Statute of Limitations, for all major jurisdictions, which includes federal and certain states. Open tax years are those that are open for exam by taxing authorities (i.e., the last 4 tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). The Funds have no examinations in progress and none are expected at this time.
As of September 28, 2007, Management of the Funds have reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded the adoption of FIN48 resulted in no impact the Funds’ net assets or results of operations. There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next 12 months
In September 2006, FASB issued its new Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 is designed to unify guidance for the measurement of fair value of all types of assets, including financial instruments, and certain liabilities, throughout a number of accounting standards. FAS 157 also establishes a hierarchy for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements that are relevant to mutual funds. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and earlier application is permitted. Management is evaluating the application of FAS 157 to the Funds, and is not in a position at this time to estimate the significance of its impact, if any, on the Funds’ financial statements.
As of October 31, 2007, Management does not expect the adoption of FAS 157 to impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain of the measurements reported in the statement of operations for a fiscal period.

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 TA IDEX American Century Large Company Value, TA IDEX Clarion Global Real Estate Securities, TA IDEX Evergreen Health Care, TA IDEX Jennison Growth, TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners Investors Value, TA IDEX Marsico Growth, TA IDEX MFS International Equity, TA IDEX PIMCO Real Return TIPS, TA IDEX PIMCO Total Return and TA IDEX Protected Principal Stock (individually a “Fund”, collectively the “Funds”) at October 31, 2007, 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 indicated, 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 October 31, 2007 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Dear Fellow Shareholder,
On behalf of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, I would like to thank you for your continued support and confidence in our products as we look forward to continuing to serve you and your financial advisor in the future. We value the trust you have placed in us.
This annual report is provided to you with the intent of presenting a comprehensive review of the investments of each of your funds. The Securities and Exchange Commission requires that annual and semi-annual reports be sent to all shareholders, and we believe this report to be an important part of the investment process. In addition to providing a comprehensive review, this report also provides a discussion of accounting policies as well as matters presented to shareholders that may have required their vote.
We believe it is important to recognize and understand current market conditions in order to provide a context for reading this report. The positive returns experienced in the equity markets for the trailing 12 months ending October 31, 2007, mask the volatility experienced along the way, with significant pullbacks occurring in February-March and July-August. The Federal Reserve board (“Federal Reserve”) was on hold for most of the past twelve months but more recently in September and October lowered its target for the federal funds rate by 0.50% and 0.25% respectively. The rate reductions by the Federal Reserve signaled an effort to inject liquidity and stability to the markets which have been adversely affected by concerns over subprime debt. While Gross Domestic Product growth remains positive, investor concerns over the extent to which subprime debt may affect consumer spending and persistently high oil prices have been a check on market returns. For the twelve months ending October 31, 2007, the Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 17.94%, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index returned 14.56%, and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index returned 5.38%. Please keep in mind it is important to maintain a diversified portfolio as investment returns have historically been difficult to predict.
In addition to your active involvement in the investment process, we firmly believe that a financial advisor is a key resource to help you build a complete picture of your current and future financial needs. Financial advisors are familiar with the market’s history, including long-term returns and volatility of various asset classes.
With your financial advisor, you can develop an investment program that incorporates factors such as your goals, your investment timeline, and your risk tolerance.
Please contact your financial advisor if you have any questions about the contents of this report, and thanks again for the confidence you have placed in us.
Sincerely,
John Carter | | Christopher Staples |

MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The overall U.S. stock market performed favorably during fiscal 2007, but there were a number of factors that adversely affected the market, especially in the last few months of the portfolio’s fiscal year. For much of the year, private equity played an important role because ample funds, low interest rates and willing lenders of debt money made this an important factor in individual company and market valuations. Ten-year Treasury yields fluctuated between 4.35% and 5.35%, with most of the past twelve months being well below 5%.
Oil played an important role during the fiscal year, starting at about $60/Bbl before falling to about $50/Bbl in early 2007 and then rising sharply to the current level above $80/Bbl. Energy stocks did very well in this environment, especially in the last nine months.
The fiscal year began with the valuation spreads between lower and higher-rated assets being historically low. This began to change in July 2007, as the deterioration in the housing market and problems associated with sub-prime mortgages initiated a change in risk premiums and negatively impacted domestic and international equity markets. In September 2007, the Federal Reserve Board lowered the federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%.
During the summer of 2007, larger companies began outperforming smaller companies for the first time in seven years. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007, large cap stocks outperformed their small cap counterparts.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners All Cap, Class A returned 9.27%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 3000 Index, returned 14.53%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, and Class C were 1.55%, 2.19%, and 2.13%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
For the year, the industrial, energy and information technology sectors were the top contributors to the portfolio’s performance. The financial and health care sectors contributed the least to relative performance.
The top stock contributors to portfolio performance during the year were Vodafone Group Plc (“Vodafone”), Honeywell International Inc., Cisco Systems, Inc., Raytheon Company and Deere & Company. The largest detractors from performance were The PMI Group, Inc., MGIC Investment Corporation, Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., Motorola, Inc., and The Home Depot, Inc.
The top ten holdings for the portfolio as of October 31, 2007 were: News Corporation – Class B, Raytheon Company, Vodafone, JPMorgan Chase & Co., Microsoft Corporation, State Street Corporation, Bank of America Corporation, Honeywell International Inc., Abbott Laboratories and General Electric Company.
The largest five sectors for the portfolio as of October 31, 2007 were: information technology (20.19%), financials (18.10%), health care (12.89%), industrials (12.20%), and consumer discretionary (11.94%).
It is our belief that larger companies will form the nucleus of the market leadership in the next few years. Not since 1983 have large cap stocks in general been available at a price-to-earnings ratio (“P/E”) discount to small cap stocks. In addition, large cap companies often have a significant share of their sales coming from foreign sources. With the dollar just breaking below its 1992 low, we believe, the exchange rate should benefit those companies with large and growing foreign sources of income.

Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
The Fund is non-diversified. Investments in a “non-diversified” fund may be subject to specific risks such as susceptibility to single economic, political, or regulatory events, and may be subject to greater loss than investments in a diversified fund.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) | Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days). |

MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Templeton Investment Counsel, LLC
In spite of elevated energy prices and a deteriorating U.S. housing sector that negatively affected U.S. economic growth, the global economy remained resilient throughout the twelve-month reporting period. Consumer and corporate demand strength, particularly in developing economies, reasonably low inflation, generally favorable labor markets, and moderate, though higher, global interest rates have supported the economic recovery, which began in 2002.
These factors also contributed to the strength of global equity markets during the twelve months under review. In addition, narrow corporate credit spreads and strong cash flows from the corporate sector in the world’s capital markets contributed to very strong global merger and acquisition activity during most of the reporting period. In particular, the private equity industry, which has grown substantially in recent years, played a pivotal role in a number of large and high-profile acquisitions.
However, concerns about slower growth and declining asset quality surfaced during the first quarter of 2007. These were initially centered on the U.S. sub-prime mortgage market but spread in August 2007 to global capital markets. In particular, the difficulties of assessing risk and the value of collateral in the structured finance industry contributed to a decline in risk appetite among both lenders and investors. The private equity industry, which is reliant on the availability of cheap credit, was particularly affected, and deal activity slowed toward the end of the period.
Accommodative actions by several central banks, including a larger-than-expected target interest rate cut of half a percent by the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) in September, helped restore investor confidence after a sharp, but short-lived sell-off in the summer. Most global equity markets ended the twelve-month period with double-digit total returns. Many stock market indexes in the U.S. and most European countries reached six-year highs, and many emerging market indexes in Asia, Europe and Latin America neared or reached all-time highs during the period. As the U.S. dollar declined versus the currencies of many major trading partners, equity returns of foreign-currency denominated stocks for U.S.-based investors generally became stronger when translated into the weaker greenback.
Transamerica Investment Management, LLC
U.S. equities overcame big challenges in the twelve months ended October 31, 2007, to generate positive returns. The Russell 1000 Growth Index rose 19.23%.
Throughout the period, the market struggled against the implications of weakness in the U.S. housing market. Because losses in home equity influence the major engine of economic growth, consumer spending, the downturn raised concerns that the economy and corporate profits would deteriorate as well. Added to this were fears that escalating energy prices, rising defaults for low-quality (sub-prime) mortgages and a liquidity crisis in the debt markets would push interest rates higher, further undermining the prospects for the housing sector.
These problems notwithstanding, economic growth and corporate earnings remained healthy, buoyed by a robust global economy and strong demand for U.S. exports. Other positives included growth in U.S. manufacturing, higher personal incomes, brisk spending on commercial construction and late-period interest-rate cuts by the Fed. In the end, these factors outweighed the housing and debt-market issues, and the market finished the period with solid, if widely dispersed, gains. Sectors most responsive to the global economy advanced most (up to 50%), while those most sensitive to U.S. consumer spending and interest rates were weakest (advancing less than 10%).
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Templeton Transamerica Global, Class A returned 23.74%. By comparison its benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International World Index (“MSCI World”), returned 20.97%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.55%, 2.20%, 2.20%, and 0.96%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Templeton Investment Counsel, LLC
From a sector perspective, our over weighted allocation and stock selection in the telecommunication services sector was the largest positive contributor to performance relative to the benchmark MSCI World for the reporting period. Most notably, our over weighted positions in Norwegian telecommunications carrier Telenor ASA and Spain’s leading fixed-line operator Telefonica, S.A. were key contributors. Our investment in non-index component Turkcell Iletisim Hizmetleri A.S., Turkey’s dominant mobile phone service provider, also performed well.
Our over weighted exposure and stock selection in the industrials sector also boosted relative results as our over weighted investment in Danish electrical products company Vestas Wind Systems A/S helped relative performance. Driven by stock selection, the consumer staples sector also positively affected relative performance for the period. Within the sector, United Kingdom (“UK”) based pharmacy chain Alliance Boots plc was a significant contributor to relative portfolio performance.
The U.S. dollar depreciated versus most foreign currencies for the period, which also contributed to the portfolio’s performance because investments in securities with non-U.S. currency exposure gained value as the dollar weakened.
Although our materials sector holdings contributed to the portfolio’s absolute performance, our underweighted allocation and stock selection negatively impacted the portfolio’s relative performance. In particular, Finland-based pulp and paper producer UPM-Kymmene Corporation declined in value.
Additionally, the portfolio’s relative performance for the period was negatively affected by its position in non-index company Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., a South Korean semiconductor manufacturer.
From a geographic perspective, the portfolio’s Asian, European and Latin American equities benefited the portfolio’s performance in absolute and relative terms. By country, our underweighted position and stock selection in Japan contributed the most to relative performance. The portfolio’s North American holdings hindered relative performance, driven mainly by an underweighted allocation and stock selection in Canada.

Transamerica Investment Management, LLC:
We invest in large companies that we believe have capable management teams, stable balance sheets and highly competitive positions and stand to benefit from long-term secular trends. Chief among those trends is robust global economic growth, which has boosted worldwide business spending on infrastructure and manufacturing capacity as well as consumer spending on leisure activities and personal technology. Not surprisingly, given our emphasis on these areas, the largest contributors to total return were Apple Inc. (“Apple”), Research in Motion Limited (“RIMM”) and Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (“Jacobs”).
Apple was already the dominant competitor in the personal music player (i.e., iPod) business when the period began, with a reputation for creating user-friendly devices. Expanding on that reputation, it launched the iPhone (an all-in-one camera phone, iPod and wireless e-mail tool) in late June. Likewise, RIMM, maker of the BlackBerry personal communication devices, successfully expanded its well-established business product line and introduced products for consumers. Jacobs designs and constructs major infrastructure projects and manufacturing facilities worldwide. Its cost-effective business model helped the company win major new contracts during the period.
These gains were partially countered by setbacks for McGraw-Hill Companies Inc. (“McGraw-Hill”), which is the parent company of debt-rating agency Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“Standard & Poor’s”); and for several consumer companies (e.g., Whole Foods Market, Inc. (“Whole Foods”), Starbucks Corporation (“Starbucks”) and Nordstrom, Inc. (“Nordstrom”)). Earnings at these companies remained healthy. Nevertheless, their stock prices fell as investors worried that the credit-and-housing crisis would negatively affect bond market activity (a factor for Standard & Poor’s) and consumer spending (a potential issue for the others). We believe McGraw-Hill will recover as the credit crisis is resolved and also believe that high-end consumers will continue to support Nordstrom. We exited Starbucks and Whole Foods, which are involved in costly, margin-squeezing expansions.

SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS
At October 31, 2007
(all amounts except share amounts in thousands)
UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

TA IDEX Transamerica Balanced
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
U.S. securities markets overcame big challenges in the twelve months ended October 31, 2007, to generate positive returns. Stocks outperformed bonds, as the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500”) rose 14.56% and the Lehman Brothers U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index (“LBGC”) advanced 5.37%.
Throughout the period, the markets struggled against the implications of weakness in the U.S. housing market. Because losses in home equity influence the major engine of economic growth, consumer spending, the downturn raised concerns that the economy and corporate profits would deteriorate as well. Added to this were fears that escalating energy prices, rising defaults for low-quality (sub-prime) mortgages and a liquidity crisis in the debt markets would push interest rates higher, further undermining the prospects for housing.
These problems notwithstanding, economic growth and corporate earnings remained healthy, buoyed by a robust global economy and strong demand for U.S. exports. Other positives included growth in U.S. manufacturing, higher personal incomes, brisk spending on commercial construction and late-period interest-rate cuts by the Federal Reserve Board. In the end, these factors outweighed the housing and debt-market issues. Although many market segments — especially those most vulnerable to these issues (e.g., securities of financial services companies) — dropped sharply during the turmoil, both equities and bonds recovered to finish the twelve-month period with solid gains.
A 60% equity/40% bonds blend of the abovementioned indexes would have advanced 10.88% during the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica Balanced, Class A returned 17.28%. By comparison its primary and secondary benchmarks, the S&P 500 and the LBGC, returned 14.56% and 5.37%, respectively. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, and Class C were 1.56%, 2.14%, and 2.11%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio benefited from an overweighting in equities (approximately 70% of total assets), which outperformed bonds. Additionally, the equity portfolio outperformed the S&P 500 by a wide margin, reflecting our emphasis on companies that have strong fundamentals and stand to benefit from robust global economic growth. Most were industrial, technology and consumer stocks. Strong gains for the first two sectors more than offset the effects of weakness among our holdings in the third.
Top-contributing stocks included Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (“Jacobs”) and Apple Inc. (“Apple”). Jacobs, which designs and constructs major infrastructure projects and manufacturing facilities worldwide, won major new contracts during the period. Apple continued to dominate the personal music player (i.e., iPod) business, launched the iPhone (an all-in-one camera phone, iPod and wireless e-mail tool) and saw growth in its core personal computer business.
Detractors included McGraw-Hill Companies Inc. (“McGraw-Hill”), which is the parent company of debt-rating agency Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“Standard & Poor’s”), and several consumer companies (e.g., Harley-Davidson, Inc. (“Harley-Davidson”), Whole Foods Markets, Inc., and Nordstrom, Inc. (“Nordstrom”)). Their stock prices fell as investors worried that the credit-and-housing crisis would negatively affect bond market activity (a factor for Standard & Poor’s) and consumer spending (a potential issue for the others). We trimmed the investment in motorcycle maker Harley-Davidson.
In the bond portfolio, an overweighting in corporate bonds and high-quality mortgage-backed securities led to positive but below-index results. These non-government sectors generated attractive yields but underperformed Treasuries during the summer’s turmoil. Our defensive measures during that period were not sufficient to fully insulate the portfolio from the downturn.

The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

TA IDEX Transamerica Convertible Securities
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
During the twelve months ended October 31, 2007, the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index gained 14.56%. Convertibles, which are highly sensitive to equity-market trends, followed stocks higher; the Merrill Lynch All U.S. Convertible Securities Index (“MLCI”) rose 12.73%.
Throughout the period, the equity and fixed-income markets fluctuated, at times fairly violently, as investors struggled to decide how deeply a slowing U.S. housing market would affect consumer spending and domestic economic growth. Added to this were intermittent fears that inflation, fueled by escalating energy prices, would prevent the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) from lowering interest rates to relieve some of the pressures in the collapsing housing market. Matters took a turn for the worse in summer, when rising defaults for low-quality mortgages sparked still more trepidation about housing as well as crisis in the debt markets. Interest rates rose, causing the markets to swoon. The trend then reversed when the Fed intervened, instituting two interest-rate cuts between August and October.
Despite the concerns, economic growth and corporate earnings remained positive, due to a healthy global economy, strong demand for U.S. exports, and growth in U.S. manufacturing and personal incomes. In the end, these factors outweighed the housing and credit-market issues; both stocks and bonds ended the year in positive territory.
Buoyed by the upside potential of their equity features and the downside cushion of their fixed-income characteristics, convertibles’ total returns withstood the markets’ fluctuations well, generating positive returns throughout the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica Convertibles, Class A returned 27.41%. By comparison its benchmark, the MLCI, returned 12.73%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.33%, 1.99%, 1.94%, and 0.82%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
We seek the convertibles of well-run companies that generate free cash flow and stand to benefit from positive changes in the companies, their industries, or the external forces driving their businesses. During this period, these parameters led us to focus on stocks benefiting from a robust global economy, which manifested in several ways, including higher expenditures on global infrastructure and manufacturing, increased demand for energy, and greater consumer spending for leisure and entertainment. As a result, the portfolio was tilted toward investments in technology, travel and leisure activities, and industrial and energy businesses.
The portfolio’s outperformance versus its index was due primarily to “synthetic” securities for casino operator Las Vegas Sands Corp. (“Las Vegas Sands”) and Research in Motion Ltd. (“RIMM”), maker of the BlackBerry personal communications devices. To create these securities, we pair a bond (usually AA-rated) with a call option on a company’s stock, thereby approximating a convertible’s blend of current income and potential to benefit from higher stock prices. Las Vegas Sands advanced strongly in response to the successful launch of a new facility, in Macao, China. RIMM performed well due to the expansion of its product line for businesses and the introduction of new products for consumers.
Other major contributors included two traditional energy-related convertibles, Schlumberger Limited and SunPower Corporation (“SunPower”). The former provides technology and information services to the rapidly expanding oil and gas industry. The latter is a vertically integrated provider of solar energy panels. The acquisition of a leading nationwide solar-panel installation company allowed SunPower to dramatically increase distribution and sales.
Other energy and industrial holdings in the portfolio did not fare so well. However, we believe the issues affecting them will be resolved relatively soon.

NOTES
(1) The Merrill Lynch All U.S. Convertibles (MLCI) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 4.75% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Class A | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,206.99 | | 1.33 | % | $ | 7.38 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,018.45 | | 1.33 | | 6.75 | |

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.95 | | 0.83 | | 4.23 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) | Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days). |
| |
(b) | 5% return per year before expenses. |

TA IDEX Transamerica Equity
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
U.S. equities overcame big challenges in the twelve months ended October 31, 2007, to generate strongly positive returns. The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index rose 14.56%, while the Russell 1000 Growth Index (“Russell 1000 Growth”) went up 19.23%.
Throughout the period, the market struggled against the implications of weakness in the U.S. housing market. Because losses in home equity influence the major engine of economic growth, consumer spending, the downturn raised concerns that the economy and corporate profits would deteriorate as well. Added to this were fears that escalating energy prices, rising defaults for low-quality (sub-prime) mortgages and a liquidity crisis in the debt markets would push interest rates higher, further undermining the prospects for housing.
These problems notwithstanding, economic growth and corporate earnings remained healthy, buoyed by a robust global economy and strong demand for U.S. exports. Other positives included growth in U.S. manufacturing, higher personal incomes, brisk spending on commercial construction and late-period interest-rate cuts by the Federal Reserve Board. In the end, these factors outweighed the housing and debt-market issues. With the exception of sectors highly vulnerable to those issues (e.g., financial services), the market finished the period with solid gains.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica Equity, Class A returned 22.79%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth, returned 19.23%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, and Class T were 1.40%, 2.17%, 2.07%, 0.78%, and 0.91%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
We invest in large companies that we believe have capable management teams, stable balance sheets and highly competitive positions and stand to benefit from long-term secular trends. Chief among those trends is robust global economic growth, which has boosted worldwide business spending on infrastructure and manufacturing capacity as well as consumer spending on leisure activities and personal technology. Because many of the companies that meet these parameters are industrial, technology and consumer businesses, the portfolio was overweighted in those sectors.
The largest contributions to total return were Apple Inc. (“Apple”), Research in Motion Limited (“RIMM”) and Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (“Jacobs”).
Apple was already the dominant competitor in the personal music player (i.e., iPod) business when the period began, with a reputation for creating user-friendly devices. Expanding on that reputation, it launched the iPhone (an all-in-one camera phone, iPod and wireless e-mail tool) in late June. Likewise, RIMM, maker of the BlackBerry personal communication devices, successfully expanded its well-established business product line and introduced products for consumers. Jacobs designs and constructs major infrastructure projects and manufacturing facilities worldwide. Its cost-effective business model helped the company win major new contracts during the period.
These gains were partially countered by setbacks for McGraw-Hill Companies Inc. (“McGraw-Hill”), which is the parent company of debt-rating agency Standard & Poor’s Corporation (“Standard & Poor’s”); and for several consumer companies (e.g., Whole Foods Markets, Inc. (“Whole Foods”), Starbucks Corporation (“Starbucks”) and Nordstrom, Inc. (“Nordstrom”)). Earnings at these companies remained healthy. Nevertheless, their stock prices fell as investors worried that the credit-and-housing crisis would negatively affect bond market activity (a factor for Standard & Poor’s) and consumer spending (a potential issue for the others). We believe McGraw-Hill will recover as the credit crisis is resolved and also believe that high-end consumers will continue to support Nordstrom. We exited Starbucks and Whole Foods, which are involved in costly, margin-squeezing expansions.

NOTES
(1) The Russell 1000 Growth (Russell 1000 Growth) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

TA IDEX Transamerica Flexible Income
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
During the twelve months ended October 31, 2007, the Lehman Brothers U.S. Government/Credit Bond Index (“LBGC”) returned 5.37% as the economic and market environment changed dramatically.
Initially, the economic and investment backdrops were stable, and high levels of global liquidity helped to maintain prices for most asset classes. The notable exception was U.S. residential real estate, where higher interest rates from adjustable-rate mortgage resets, overbuilding and rising defaults for low-quality (sub-prime) mortgages created a buyers’ market and falling prices.
The pace of defaults rose sharply by summer, sparking concerns that housing would deteriorate further and have a spillover effect on consumer spending, which serves as a major driver of economic growth. Housing continued its downward slide while investors, perceiving more risk to the economy and corporate profits going forward, demanded higher yields on all non-government securities, not just mortgage securities, and increasingly withdrew support from the markets. In the absence of willing buyers, the turmoil expanded into a more serious liquidity crisis. As the crisis worsened between August and October, the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) intervened, reducing the discount and federal funds rates, 1.25% and 0.75%, respectively, to restore confidence.
Against this backdrop, U.S. Treasury yields declined, especially for the shortest-term securities, and the yield curve steepened. U.S. Treasury securities outperformed other sectors (corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities). However, within the corporate realm, high-yield bonds fared better than investment grade, reflecting relatively strong results earlier in the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica Flexible Income, Class A returned 2.42%. By comparison its benchmark, the LBGC, returned 5.37%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.40%, 2.04%, 2.00%, and 0.80%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
We attribute the portfolio’s positive but lagging returns to our emphasis on the non-government sectors, which provide higher yields than Treasuries. In keeping with the portfolio’s income objective, we invest primarily in corporate bonds, generally allocate approximately 25% to 30% of assets to high-yield bonds and invest selectively in asset-backed securities.
This positioning worked relatively well in the initial months of the period, when the stable economy and favorable corporate earnings environment led the corporate and high-yield sectors to outperform Treasuries. Within the investment-grade corporate portfolio, we overweighted the securities of large depository institutions (e.g., banks) because they appeared less likely to be purchased in a leverage buyout. (Such buyouts usually result in much higher debt for a company and lower credit quality.)
Among high-yield bonds, we favored securities from energy and retail companies. We maintained an average quality of B while capturing additional yield from a carefully picked selection of CCC-rated bonds. Later, anticipating that risk aversion would spread from mortgages to other areas of the market, we reduced overall portfolio risk by trading some of these CCC securities for BB-rated bonds.
As for our asset-backed holdings, we had no exposure to sub-prime residential mortgages. However, we did have modest exposure to commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), which underperformed U.S. Treasuries. Commercial real estate fundamentals remain solid, in contrast to residential real estate, and CMBS have not experienced the same slippage in underwriting and rating standards.
Once the Fed intervened and the market began to settle, we took advantage of the generally lower prices for non-government bonds, buying corporate and high-yields that we believe will likely perform well as the market continues to recover.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

TA IDEX Transamerica Growth Opportunities
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The U.S. stock market experienced two distinct phases in the twelve months ended October 31, 2007. Through April, the market advanced strongly, driven by a combination of slowing economic growth (due to a downturn in the U.S. housing sector) and a wave of private equity buyouts. The first caused investors to anticipate that the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) would lower interest rates to stimulate growth. The second was fueled in part by easy credit; private equity firms were able to pay premiums for slower-growing, high-cash flow companies by financing the acquisitions with large, low-cost loans. This put upward pressure on stock prices.
After April, these trends reversed. A resurgent economy dimmed hopes of Fed interest-rate cuts. Meanwhile, the easy credit of the past several years created problems for the mortgage industry, where defaults on low-quality loans increased dramatically. Credit became more difficult to obtain, the buyout wave subsided, and equity markets turned highly volatile until the Fed intervened, reducing interest rates to restore confidence.
Despite the turbulence, the Russell Midcap Growth Index (“Russell Midcap Growth”) rose 19.72%, led by sectors that were not vulnerable to the housing industry and the credit-market problems.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica Growth Opportunities, Class A returned 36.20%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth, returned 19.72%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.75%, 2.40%, 2.36%, and 0.88%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
We focus on companies with the potential to outperform over a three- to five-year time horizon, due to a combination of capable management, sustainable competitive advantages, and the ability to benefit from positive secular growth trends. Major themes in recent years have included strong global economic growth; increased consumer spending on leisure and entertainment; and new technologies. This emphasis paid off handsomely during the period.
The portfolio’s largest contributors to performance included two leisure-related companies: Hilton Hotels Corporation, which was bought out early in the quarter, and casino operator Las Vegas Sands Corp., which advanced rapidly after the successful launch of its newest facility in Macao, China. Other major contributors were companies leveraged to global economic growth and development (e.g., Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. (“Jacobs”) and Cameron International Corporation (“Cameron”)) and secularly growing businesses, including Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (“Intuitive Surgical”). Cameron, which manufactures pressure-control systems used in deep-sea drilling, benefited from strong energy prices. Jacobs, a designer and manager of large-scale engineering projects, continued to win new contracts worldwide. Shares of top contributor Intuitive Surgical, which develops systems for robotically assisted, minimally invasive surgery, rose rapidly after the company announced a double-digit rise in quarterly earnings.
During the period, we exited certain consumer and financial stocks that detracted from results and, in our view, had reached the end of their near-term growth trajectories. Among them were SanDisk Corporation (portable digital memory devices), P.F. Chang’s China Bistro, Inc. (restaurants) and Global Payments Inc. (worldwide electronic transaction processing and payment services). Conversely, we maintained the portfolio’s exposure to another detractor, Whole Foods Market, Inc. We believe this high-end grocer has tremendous opportunities to increase its market penetration and are watching to see how effectively management can execute the expansion.

NOTES
(1) The Russell Midcap Growth (Russell Midcap Growth) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
Investing in small cap stocks generally involves greater risk and volatility, therefore an investment in the fund may not be appropriate for everyone. This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this Fund.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) | | Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days) |

TA IDEX Transamerica High-Yield Bond
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Main Street has barely noticed that Wall Street is struggling. The recent financial shock caused by the sub-prime mortgage shock seems far in the distance to the average investor on Main Street. While the consumer did show signs of slowing over the past fiscal year, the economy, which has been led by the consumer, has remained quite resilient. So much so that growth has accelerated year-over-year during the past two quarters despite the worst housing slump in years. Wall Street’s retrenchment seems to indicate a significant slowdown on the horizon while Main Street so far has continued to shrug off a poor housing environment and rising energy prices.
The Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) continues to be concerned that higher energy prices may flow through to final consumer prices and eventually raise investor’s inflation expectations. The Fed now has a balanced view of the risks – that the risk of slowing growth is matched against future inflation risks. The risks of a significant slowdown, and/or higher inflationary expectations pose the most challenging risks to the portfolio over the next fiscal year.

For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica High-Yield Bond, Class A returned 5.90%. By comparison its benchmark, the Merrill Lynch High Yield Cash Pay Index (“Merrill Lynch High Yield”), returned 6.76%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.15%, 1.83%, 1.83%, and 0.65%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
A portion of the portfolio’s underperformance for the fiscal year versus the Merrill Lynch High Yield was attributable to the portfolio’s underweight in CCC securities, which is limited to 10%. This structural limitation had a negative influence on the securities performance for the period as the Merrill Lynch High Yield CCC sector index out-performed the Merrill Lynch High Yield BB-B sector index by 156bp (8.16% vs. 6.60%) during the one year period ended October 31, 2007.
Positive industry contributors during the period for the Merrill Lynch High Yield were non-electric utilities, auto parts and equipment, and metals/mining. Negative contributors included building and construction, integrated energy and beverage.
On a relative basis our underweight in automotive and wireless, along with our overweight in gaming hurt our performance versus the benchmark. Positive sector contributors included our underweight to the consumer cyclical space, specifically building and construction. Individual names that contributed positively to performance included our underweight in General Motors Acceptance Corporation (“GMAC”) while our underweight in General Motors Corporation and Ford Motor Company were negative contributors to performance. Other positive contributors included Smurfit-Stone Container Corporation, The DirectTV Group, Inc. and Las Vegas Sands Corp.
Our strategy of an up-in-quality bias, with select investments in lower-tier credits, provided a solid return for the portfolio, but short of the down-in-quality bias of the index. Over the past twelve months we have continued to see aggressive issuance patterns with the proportion of lower quality paper (CCC+ and below) increasing significantly. We believe we will continue to see these trends continue and believe that the broader high yield market will be composed of 25-30% of lower quality paper before the credit cycle turns. We continue to believe that our discipline of not chasing yield, particularly with the increased financial markets volatility and economic uncertainty, will reward shareholders for the upcoming fiscal period.
The high yield market remained resilient during the first six months of the year as market participants continued to have a strong bid for risk on the back of strong economic growth. In general, the theme for many high yield participants continued to be the down-in-quality trade. Given the backdrop of low credit volatility and tight spreads, investors felt comfortable stretching for additional yield in riskier situations during the first half of the year. Subsequently we have seen increased volatility in the broader marketplace, particularly in the structured asset classes as the sub-prime debacle and massive amount of leverage in the system has started to unwind.
With the portfolio now a total high yield portfolio, credit is the predominate risk to the portfolio. We believe a long sustained underperformance by the economy would be detrimental to the cash flows and balance sheets of below investment grade securities, which is mitigated somewhat by our very low weighting in CCC securities and generally a higher proportion of better quality credits within the portfolio versus our peers.

NOTES
(1) The Merrill Lynch High Yield Cash Pay (MLHYCP) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 4.75% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
Investments in high-yield bonds (“junk bonds”) may be subject to greater volatility and risks as the income derived from these securities is not guaranteed and may be unpredictable. This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this Fund.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) | Expenses are calculated using the fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days). |

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

MARKET ENVIRONMENT
U.S. equities overcame big challenges in the twelve months ended October 31, 2007, to generate positive returns. The market struggled against the implications of weakness in the U.S. housing market. Because losses in home equity influence the major engine of economic growth, consumer spending, the downturn raised concerns that the economy and corporate profits would deteriorate as well. Added to this were fears that escalating energy prices, rising defaults for low-quality (sub-prime) mortgages and a liquidity crisis in the debt markets would push interest rates higher, further undermining the prospects for housing.
These problems notwithstanding, economic growth and corporate earnings remained healthy, buoyed by a robust global economy and strong demand for U.S. exports. Other positives included growth in U.S. manufacturing, higher personal incomes, brisk spending on commercial construction and late-period interest-rate cuts by the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”). Against this backdrop, worldwide demand for new technologies continued to expand, and information technology stocks fared better than the market in general. The Dow Jones U.S. Technology Index (“DJ Technology”) achieved a twelve-month total return of 27.15%, versus 14.56% for the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica Science & Technology, Class A returned 45.01%. By comparison its primary and former benchmarks, the DJ Technology and the NASDAQ 100 Index, returned 27.15% and 29.23%, respectively. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.55%, 2.19%, 2.15%, and 0.92%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
We seek well-run businesses that are positioned to benefit from at least one of several long-term secular trends. Among these are the digitization of media for mass consumer adoption; development and delivery of alternative energy; the unique application of technology to gain a competitive edge; or the development of biotechnology products and treatments that improve the quality and efficacy of health care. Reflecting these parameters, the portfolio was diversified across eight market sectors ranging from consumer discretionary to telecommunications services, with the largest weighting in information technology.
The portfolio’s outperformance can be attributed primarily to four stocks: Research in Motion Limited (“RIMM”), Apple Inc. (“Apple”), Intuitive Surgical, Inc. (“Intuitive Surgical”) and SunPower Corporation (“SunPower”). RIMM posted a triple-digit gain due to the continued successful expansion of its product line for businesses and the introduction of new products for consumers. Apple’s gains reflected continued dominance in the personal music player (i.e., iPod) business, the introduction of the iPhone (an all-in-one iPod, wireless e-mail device and camera phone) and a “halo effect” from the iPod and iPhone that boosted sales of the company’s personal computers. Shares of Intuitive Surgical, which develops systems for robotically assisted, minimally invasive surgery, rose rapidly after the company announced a double-digit rise in quarterly earnings. SunPower, a vertically integrated provider of solar energy panels, chalked up strong gains after the acquisition of a leading nationwide solar-panel installation company allowed it to dramatically increase distribution, sales and earnings.
Among the handful of stocks in the portfolio with negative returns for the period, the biggest detractor was Shuffle Master, Inc., a maker of automatic shufflers and other gaming-industry products.

NOTES
(1) The Dow Jones U.S. Technology (DJ Technology) Index and the NASDAQ 100 (NASDAQ) Index are managed indices used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end. Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for ClassC shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
Investing in technology stocks generally involves greater volatility and risks, so an investment in the Fund may not be appropriate for everyone. The Fund is non-diversified. Investments in a “non-diversified” fund may be subject to specific risks such as susceptibility to single economic, political or regulatory events, and may be subject to greater loss than investments in a diversified fund. This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this Fund. Effective October 27, 2006, the portfolio changed its name from TA IDEX Great Companies-TechnologySM to TA IDEX Transamerica Science & Technology and changed its sub-adviser from Great Companies, L.L.C. to Transamerica Investment Management, LLC.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class A | | | | | | | | | |

Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | 1,000.00 | | 1,356.98 | | 0.93 | | 5.53 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.45 | | 0.93 | | 4.74 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
After dominating the market since 2002, value stocks ceded leadership to growth stocks during the twelve months ended October 31, 2007. A key reason was the U.S. economic cycle, which showed intermittent signs of slowing. That in turn was due largely to weakness in the housing market, intensified by a crisis in the mortgage and credit industries.
Against this backdrop, investors reasoned that companies with stronger growth in earnings per shares (growth stocks) would hold up better than companies with less earnings momentum (value stocks). Investor sentiment shifted strongly toward market sectors that are traditionally safe havens in a slow-growth environment (consumer staples) and sectors where secular growth trends will likely insulate companies from a tepid economy. At the same time, the market turned away from sectors that were greatly affected by the housing market slump, most notably consumer discretionary and financial services stocks.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value, Class A returned 36.99%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value Index, returned 4.63%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class I were 1.41%, 2.07%, 2.04%, and 0.85%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Throughout the period, we believed that an economic slowdown was merely a matter of time; the underlying housing-related issues – overbuilding and excessive lending to poorly qualified buyers – are sizable and will take time to resolve. Furthermore, we believed the Federal Reserve Board’s (“Fed”) ability to help the situation, by reducing interest rates, was limited by the larger, global environment. Rapid economic expansion in nations like China and India spurred enormous demand and higher prices for finished goods, services and, most importantly, raw materials. The inflationary pressures made it difficult for the Fed to reduce rates; it did so only when the housing- and credit-related issues reached crisis level.
In keeping with our concerns about the economy and inflation, we overweighted businesses in industries that stood to benefit from rising demand for commodities (e.g., energy, materials/processing, producer durables and shipping), while underweighting companies dependent on U.S. interest rates (mostly financials) and being selective about consumer stocks. The portfolio’s strongly positive results were due largely to our emphasis on shipping and materials/processing stocks and our careful approach to the consumer sector.
The top contributors included DryShips Inc. and Genco Shipping & Trading Limited, both transporters of dry bulk items. Because global demand for raw materials is growing faster than the worldwide supply of tankers, charter prices set new highs this year, boosting profits for shippers. Other major contributors were Aegean Marine Petroleum Network Inc. (“Aegean”), McDermott International, Inc. (“McDermott”), and FTI Consulting, Inc. (“FTI”). Aegean provides fueling services to commercial vessels (e.g., oil tankers, cruise ships and ferries). McDermott provides engineering and construction services to oil and gas production companies, nuclear power plants and coal-fired power generators. FTI advises on corporate governance, compliance and other strategic management issues. An acquisition in Europe allowed FTI to expand its reach and opportunities for cross-selling.
The gains for these and other stocks were partially offset by losses for two natural gas exploration and production companies, Edge Petroleum Corporation and Aurora Oil & Gas Corporation, and downturns for stocks vulnerable to the domestic economy and credit-market turmoil (e.g., bond insurer Ambac Financial Group, Inc.). We attribute the weak showing for the energy companies to poor management and are watching developments there closely.

NOTES
(1) The Russell 2500 Value (Russell 2500 Value) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
Investing in small cap stocks generally involves greater risk and volatility, therefore an investment in the fund may not be appropriate for everyone.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.84 | | 0.85 | | 4.34 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Transamerica Value Balanced
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
After dominating the market since 2002, value stocks ceded leadership to growth stocks during the twelve months ended October 31, 2007. A key reason was the U.S. economic cycle, which showed intermittent signs of slowing. That in turn was due largely to weakness in the housing market, intensified by a crisis in the mortgage and credit industries.
Against this backdrop, investor sentiment shifted strongly toward market sectors that are traditionally safe havens in a slow-growth environment (consumer staples) and sectors where secular growth trends will likely insulate companies from a tepid economy. At the same time, the market turned away from sectors that were greatly affected by the housing market slump, most notably financial services stocks.
In the bond markets, the housing, mortgage and credit issues triggered considerable volatility and a liquidity crisis in the final months of the period, prompting the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) to reduce interest rates. Despite this confidence-boosting move, investors remained cautious; government securities outperformed corporate, mortgage- and asset-backed securities.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Transamerica Value Balanced, Class A returned 13.11%. By comparison its primary and secondary benchmarks, the Russell 1000 Value Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, returned 10.83% and 5.38%, respectively. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, and Class C were 1.55%, 2.20%, and 2.17%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio was over weighted in equities, reflecting our belief that stocks would outperform bonds. We believed that an economic slowdown was merely a matter of time. Typically, such a deceleration would prompt the Fed to reduce interest rates, which is generally beneficial for bonds. In the present case, however, we believed the Fed’s ability to cut interest rates was limited by the larger, global environment. Rapid economic expansion in nations like China and India spurred enormous demand and higher prices for finished goods, services and raw materials. The inflationary pressures made it difficult for the Fed to reduce rates; it did so only when the housing- and credit-related issues reached crisis level.
In keeping with our concerns about the economy and inflation, at mid-year, we shifted the focus of the equity portfolio, overweighting businesses in industries that stood to benefit from rising demand for commodities (e.g., energy, materials/processing, producer durables and shipping), while underweighting companies dependent on U.S. interest rates (mostly financials) and being selective about consumer stocks. The portfolio’s strong positive results were due to our emphasis on health care and financial services stocks (early in the period); the culling of financial stocks before the financial crises set in; and the increased exposure to materials/processing (i.e., commodities) companies during the latter months. Top contributors included Microsoft Corporation (software), Companhia Vale Do Rio Doce (iron-ore mining), Bristol-Myers Squibb Company and Merck & Co., Inc. (pharmaceuticals) and AllianceBernstein L.P. (asset management).
Partially mitigating their gains were a handful of commercial bank stocks. Although we dramatically reduced these positions starting in June, the move did not fully insulate the portfolio from the mortgage-and-credit crisis. Likewise, the portfolio’s bond portfolio, which was over weighted in corporate bonds and owned mortgage-backed securities, was impacted by the turmoil. However, the portfolio contained no sub-prime residential exposure and only modest exposure to commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) and was a net contributor to total return.

NOTES
(1) The Russell 1000 Value (Russell 1000 Value) Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond (LBAB) Index are unmanaged indices used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares. Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class A | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,046.23 | | 1.55 | % | $ | 7.99 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,017.32 | | 1.55 | | 7.88 | |

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,014.32 | | 2.14 | | 10.89 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
At October 31, 2007
(all amounts in thousands)
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds (“TA IDEX”) is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners All Cap, TA IDEX Templeton Transamerica Global, TA IDEX Transamerica Balanced, TA IDEX Transamerica Convertible Securities, TA IDEX Transamerica Equity, TA IDEX Transamerica Flexible Income, TA IDEX Transamerica Growth Opportunities, TA IDEX Transamerica High-Yield Bond, TA IDEX Transamerica Money Market, TA IDEX Transamerica Science & Technology, TA IDEX Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value and TA IDEX Transamerica Value Balanced (each, a “Fund”; collectively, the “Funds”), are part of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds.
TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners All Cap and TA IDEX Transamerica Science & Technology are “non-diversified” under the 1940 Act.
In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or their affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
This report should be read in conjunction with the Funds’ current prospectus, which contains more complete information about the Funds.
In preparing the Funds’ financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
Multiple class operations, income and expenses: The Funds, except TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners All Cap and TA IDEX Transamerica Equity, currently have four classes of shares, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class I. TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners All Cap currently has three classes of shares, Class A, Class B and Class C. TA IDEX Transamerica Equity currently has five classes of shares, Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I and Class T. Class T shares are not available to new investors. Each of the above classes has a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Class I is only available for investment to certain affiliated asset allocation funds. Class B shares will convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.
Security valuations: The Funds value their investments at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), normally 4 p.m. ET, each day the NYSE is open for business. The Funds’ investments are valued at the last sale price or closing price on the day of valuation taken from the primary exchange where the security is principally traded.
Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.
Debt securities are valued based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.
Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded. Because many foreign securities markets and exchanges close prior to the close of the NYSE, closing prices for foreign securities in those markets or on those exchanges do not reflect the events that occur after that close. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Funds’ net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” As a result, foreign equity securities held by the Funds may be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ Administrative Valuation Committee, using guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
Other securities for which quotations are not readily available or whose values have been determined to be unreliable are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ Administrative Valuation Committee, using guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
Cash: Each Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, State Street Bank & Trust Company (“State Street”). On July 2, 2007, State Street acquired the parent company of Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). State Street has been contracted on behalf of the Funds to invest excess cash into savings accounts, which at October 31, 2007 were paying an interest rate of 3.00%.
Throughout the year, the Funds may have cash overdraft balances. A fee is incurred on these overdrafts, calculated by multiplying the overdrafts by a rate based on the federal funds rate.
105
Repurchase agreements: The Funds are authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Funds, through their custodian, State Street, receive delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. The Funds will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the securities can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the securities. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs may be incurred.
Commission recapture: The sub-advisers of certain Funds, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, have elected to place security transactions of the Funds with broker/dealers with which Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Commission Recapture Program. A Commission Recapture Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Funds. In no event will commissions paid by the Funds be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party.
Recaptured comissions during the year ended October 31, 2007 included in net realized gains on the Statement of Operations, were as follows:
Fund | | Commissions | |
TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners All Cap | | $ | 10 | |
TA IDEX Templeton Transamerica Global | | 15 | |

TA IDEX Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value | | 30 | |
TA IDEX Transamerica Value Balanced | | 2 | |
| | | | |
Securities lending: The Funds may lend securities to qualified borrowers with State Street acting as the Funds’ lending agent. The Funds earn negotiated lenders’ fees. The Funds receive cash and/or securities as collateral against the loaned securities. Cash collateral received is invested in short term, interest bearing securities. The Funds monitor the market value of securities loaned on a daily basis and require collateral in an amount at least equal to the value of the securities loaned. The value of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at October 31, 2007 were as follows:
| | | | Cash | |
| | | | Collateral | |
Fund | | Value | | Received | |
TA IDEX Legg Mason Partners All Cap | | $ | 12,153 | | $ | 12,983 | |

Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes and interest rates. Since some of the Funds invest primarily in real estate securities, the net asset value per share may fluctuate more widely than the value of shares of a fund that invests in a broad range of industries.
Dividend income is recorded at management estimate of the income included in distributions from the REIT investments. Distributions received in excess of the estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments. The actual amounts of income, return of capital and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after the fiscal year end and may differ from the estimated amounts.
Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend date. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.
Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investment was acquired. The Funds combine fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.
Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.
Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions. These risks include revaluation of currencies, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values and possible adverse political, social and economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry, country or region.
Option contracts: The Funds may enter into options contracts to manage exposure to market fluctuations. Options are valued at the average of the bid and ask (“Mean Quote”) established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are imperfect correlation between the change in value of the securities held and the prices of the options contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market; and inability of the counterparty to meet the contracts terms. When the Funds write covered call or put options, an amount equal to the premiums received by the Funds are included in the Funds’ Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. Options are marked-to-market daily to reflect the current value of the options written.
Transactions in written options were as follows:

NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
The Funds have not made any provisions for federal income or excise taxes due to their policy to distribute all of their taxable income and capital gains to their shareholders and otherwise qualify as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatment for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, foreign currency transactions, swaps, option contracts, partnerships, net operating losses and PFIC’s. Therefore, distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ significantly in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Financial records are not adjusted for temporary differences. These reclassifications are as follows:
| | | | | | Undistributed | |
| | Shares of | | | | (accumulated) | |
| | beneficial | | | | net realized | |

NOTE 5. REGULATORY PROCEEDINGS
There continues to be significant federal and state regulatory activity relating to financial services companies, particularly mutual fund companies and their investment advisers. As part of an ongoing investigation regarding potential market timing, recordkeeping and trading compliance issues and matters affecting the Funds’ investment adviser, TFAI, and certain affiliates and former employees of TFAI, the SEC staff has indicated that it is likely to take some action against TFAI and certain of its affiliates at the conclusion of the investigation. The potential timing and the scope of any such action is difficult to predict. Although the impact of any action brought against TFAI and/or its affiliates is difficult to assess at the present time, the Funds currently believe that the likelihood that any such action will have a material adverse impact is remote. It is important to note that the Funds are not aware of any allegation of wrongdoing against them and their Board at the time this annual report is printed. Although it is not anticipated that these developments will have an adverse impact on the Funds, there can be no assurance at this time. TFAI and its affiliates are actively working with the SEC in regard to this matter; however, the exact resolution cannot be determined at this time. TFAI will take such actions that it deems necessary or appropriate to continue providing management services to the Funds and to bring all matters to an appropriate conclusion.
TFAI and/or its affiliates, and not the Funds, will bear the costs regarding these regulatory matters.

NOTE 6. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the accounting and disclosure of 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 not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is effective during the first required financial reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.
Implementation of FIN 48 requires Management of the Funds to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the Statute of Limitations, for all major jurisdictions, which includes federal and certain states. Open tax years are those that are open for exam by taxing authorities (i.e., the last 4 tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). The Funds have no examinations in progress and none are expected at this time.
As of September 28, 2007, Management of the Funds have reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded the adoption of FIN48 resulted in no impact the Funds’ net assets or results of operations. There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next 12 months.
In September 2006, FASB issued its new Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 is designed to unify guidance for the measurement of fair value of all types of assets, including financial instruments, and certain liabilities, throughout a number of accounting standards. FAS 157 also establishes a hierarchy for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements that are relevant to mutual funds. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and earlier application is permitted.
As of October 31, 2007, Management does not expect the adoption of FAS 157 to impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain of the measurements reported in the statement of operations for a fiscal period.

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 October 31, 2007 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Dear Fellow Shareholder,
On behalf of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, I would like to thank you for your continued support and confidence in our products as we look forward to continuing to serve you and your financial adviser in the future. We value the trust you have placed in us.
This annual report is provided to you with the intent of presenting a comprehensive review of the investments of each of your funds. The Securities and Exchange Commission requires that annual and semi-annual reports be sent to all shareholders, and we believe this report to be an important part of the investment process. In addition to providing a comprehensive review, this report also provides a discussion of accounting policies as well as matters presented to shareholders that may have required their vote.
We believe it is important to recognize and understand current market conditions in order to provide a context for reading this report. The positive returns experienced in the equity markets for the trailing 12 months ending October 31, 2007, mask the volatility experienced along the way, with significant pullbacks occurring in February-March and July-August. The Federal Reserve Board (“Federal Reserve”) was on hold for most of the past twelve months but more recently in September and October lowered its target for the federal funds rate by 0.50% and 0.25% respectively. The rate reductions by the Federal Reserve signaled an effort to inject liquidity and stability to the markets which have been adversely affected by concerns over subprime debt. While Gross Domestic Product growth remains positive, investor concerns over the extent to which subprime debt may affect consumer spending and persistently high oil prices have been a check on market returns. For the 12 months ending October 31, 2007, the Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 17.94%, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index returned 14.56%, and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index returned 5.38%. Please keep in mind it is important to maintain a diversified portfolio as investment returns have historically been difficult to predict.
In addition to your active involvement in the investment process, we firmly believe that a financial adviser is a key resource to help you build a complete picture of your current and future financial needs. Financial advisers are familiar with the market’s history, including long-term returns and volatility of various asset classes. With your financial adviser, you can develop an investment program that incorporates factors such as your goals, your investment timeline, and your risk tolerance.
Please contact your financial adviser if you have any questions about the contents of this report, and thanks again for the confidence you have placed in us.
Sincerely,
John K. Carter | | Christopher A. Staples | | | |

TA IDEX Asset Allocation – Conservative Portfolio
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Although the twelve-month period through October 31, 2007 witnessed plenty of market volatility, the stock and bond markets notched respectable gains. The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index returned 14.56%, while the broad Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index (“DJ Wilshire 5000”) gained 15.29%. These gains were not without interruption, however. A February tumble in China’s red-hot market upset stocks all around the world that month. And in the summer, gathering concern in the U.S. about the mortgage and housing markets reached alarming levels. The mortgage industry’s loose lending standards of recent years came back to haunt lenders, investors, and borrowers alike in 2007. Lenders responded by tightening lending standards, many borrowers could no longer qualify for loans, and home sales and refinancings slowed. These developments along with soaring oil prices made investors wary of U.S. economy’s direction.
Investors took some solace from strong growth abroad, but U.S. stocks nonetheless fell in June and July. The stocks of financial companies were hardest hit by the mortgage market’s woes. Investors had already been favoring the relative safety of larger stocks by then; and as they migrated toward large caps while also steering away from financials and other economically sensitive stocks, they boosted the prices of large-cap growth stocks in sectors such as technology. Large growth companies were also rewarded for being significant exporters, which was an advantage given weakness in the U.S. dollar. Moreover, many people felt growth stocks, and particularly large-cap growth stocks, were ripe for a rebound after lagging for several years. For the twelve-month period, growth stocks rose more than value stocks across all market-cap ranges; and large caps significantly outpaced small caps (although mid-caps beat both, benefiting from a wave of merger and acquisition activity early in the year).
Foreign stock returns surpassed the U.S. indices, partly because the major foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar. The Morgan Stanley Capital International-EAFE Index rose 25.43% for the period. Emerging markets were especially strong as high oil and commodity prices bolstered developing economies. The Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets Index returned 68.33%.
Bond returns were mixed early on but improved as nervous investors sought safety from the summer’s shaky stock market. The Federal Reserve Board’s rate cuts in September and October also helped boost bond prices. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (“LBAB”) finished the twelve-month period with a 5.38% return. Riskier high-yield bonds weakened as credit conditions worsened, but already had strong gains from earlier in the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Asset Allocation—Conservative Portfolio Class A returned 12.06%. By comparison, its primary and secondary benchmarks, the LBAB and the DJ Wilshire 5000, returned 5.38% and 15.29%, respectively. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class R were 0.62%, 1.25%, 1.22%, and 0.86%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
This fund-of-funds portfolio is structured to provide an approximately 35%, 55%, 10% mix of stocks, bonds and cash, respectively. Its equity exposure is intended to provide broadly diversified coverage of domestic and international equity markets, across a range of market capitalizations and investment styles. The fixed-income portion is also well diversified, covering investment-grade and credit-sensitive holdings, as well as international bonds. The portfolio also includes emerging markets, global real estate, and absolute-return strategies.
The portfolio’s 12.06% return for the twelve-month period performed well versus its peer group, the Morningstar Conservative Allocation fund category. The portfolio’s largest position, bond fund TA IDEX PIMCO Total Return, performed well relative to the LBAB, and the next-largest bond holding, TA IDEX JPMorgan International Bond, posted even better returns. The best-performing bond fund was the TA IDEX Van Kampen Emerging Markets Debt. The equity funds delivered higher returns in many cases. TA IDEX Oppenheimer Developing Markets was the portfolio’s overall top gainer as emerging markets soared. The portfolio’s international exposure in general was a positive as the weakening dollar boosted returns for U.S. investors. With growth stocks leading the domestic market, several of the portfolio’s growth funds also posted strong gains, including the two heaviest-weighted growth funds.
In early 2007, we conducted a broad rebalancing, mainly to better diversify the bond position, correct a small-cap overweight, and rebalance the portfolio’s value and growth exposure. We believe the portfolio’s strong returns for this period demonstrate the effectiveness of maintaining disciplined and balanced market coverage while focusing on identifying excellent managers in each style.
During the year, five new funds were added to the menu available for use in the portfolio: TA IDEX BlackRock Natural Resources, TA IDEX Loomis Sayles Bond, TA IDEX Third Avenue Value, and two absolute-return strategies—TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy and TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha. The portfolio currently owns all of these new funds.

NOTES
(1) The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond (LBAB) Index and the Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market (DJ Wilshire 5000) Index are unmanaged indices used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any expenses from the Fund’s investment in other affiliated investment companies. The average weighted annualized expense ratio of the underlying investment companies at October 31, 2007 was 0.81%.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,021.37 | | 0.75 | | 3.81 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Asset Allocation – Growth Portfolio
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Although the twelve-month period through October 31, 2007 witnessed plenty of market volatility, the stock and bond markets notched respectable gains. The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index returned 14.56%, while the broad Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index (“DJ Wilshire 5000”) gained 15.29%. These gains were not without interruption, however. A February tumble in China’s red-hot market upset stocks all around the world that month. And in the summer, gathering concern in the U.S. about the mortgage and housing markets reached alarming levels. The mortgage industry’s loose lending standards of recent years came back to haunt lenders, investors, and borrowers alike in 2007. Lenders responded by tightening lending standards, many borrowers could no longer qualify for loans, and home sales and refinancings slowed. These developments along with soaring oil prices made investors wary of U.S. economy’s direction.
Investors took some solace from strong growth abroad, but U.S. stocks nonetheless fell in June and July. The stocks of financial companies were hardest hit by the mortgage market’s woes. Investors had already been favoring the relative safety of larger stocks by then; and as they migrated toward large caps while also steering away from financials and other economically sensitive stocks, they boosted the prices of large-cap growth stocks in sectors such as technology. Large growth companies were also rewarded for being significant exporters, which was an advantage given weakness in the U.S. dollar. Moreover, many people felt growth stocks, and particularly large-cap growth stocks, were ripe for a rebound after lagging for several years. For the twelve-month period, growth stocks rose more than value stocks across all market-cap ranges; and large caps significantly outpaced small caps (although mid-caps beat both, benefiting from a wave of merger and acquisition activity early in the year).
Foreign stock returns surpassed the U.S. indices, partly because the major foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar. The Morgan Stanley Capital International-EAFE Index rose 25.43% for the period. Emerging markets were especially strong as high oil and commodity prices bolstered developing economies. The Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets Index returned 68.33%.
Bond returns were mixed early on but improved as nervous investors sought safety from the summer’s shaky stock market. The Federal Reserve Board’s rate cuts in September and October also helped boost bond prices. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index finished the twelve-month period with a 5.38% return. Riskier high-yield bonds weakened as credit conditions worsened, but already had strong gains from earlier in the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Asset Allocation—Growth Portfolio Class A returned 21.35%. By comparison, its benchmark, the DJ Wilshire 5000, returned 15.29%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class R were 0.64%, 1.29%, 1.25%, and 0.68%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
This fund-of-funds portfolio is structured to provide broadly diversified coverage of domestic and international equity markets, across a range of market capitalizations and investment styles. The portfolio also includes emerging markets, global real estate, and a modest allocation to absolute-return strategies.
The portfolio’s 21.35% return for the twelve-month period performed well versus its peer group, the Morningstar Large Blend fund category. The best-performing underlying fund was TA IDEX Oppenheimer Developing Markets as emerging markets soared. The portfolio’s international exposure in general was a positive as the weakening dollar boosted returns for U.S. investors. With growth stocks leading the domestic market, several of the portfolio’s growth funds also posted strong gains, particularly TA IDEX Transamerica Growth Opportunities, TA IDEX Van Kampen Mid-Cap Growth, TA IDEX Marsico Growth, and TA IDEX Transamerica Equity. Although value stocks lagged, most of the portfolio’s value funds performed well relative to their categories, including the small-cap funds, TA IDEX Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value and TA IDEX Oppenheimer Small-& Mid-Cap Value.
In early 2007, we conducted a broad rebalancing, mainly to correct a small-cap weighting that had grown too large and to better balance the portfolio’s value and growth exposure. We believe the portfolio’s excellent returns for this period demonstrate the effectiveness of maintaining disciplined and balanced market coverage while focusing on identifying excellent managers in each style.
During the year five new funds were added to the menu available for use in the portfolio: TA IDEX BlackRock Natural Resources, TA IDEX Loomis Sayles Bond, TA IDEX Third Avenue Value, and two absolute-return strategies—TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy and TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha. The portfolio currently owns all of these new funds except TA IDEX Loomis Sayles Bond.

NOTES
(1) The Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market (DJ Wilshire 5000) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any expenses from the Fund’s investment in other affiliated investment companies. The average weighted annualized expense ratio of the underlying investment companies at October 31, 2007 was 0.92%.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,021.82 | | 0.66 | | 3.35 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Asset Allocation – Moderate Growth Portfolio
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Although the twelve-month period through October 31, 2007 witnessed plenty of market volatility, the stock and bond markets notched respectable gains. The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index returned 14.56%, while the broad Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index (“DJ Wilshire 5000”) gained 15.29%. These gains were not without interruption, however. A February tumble in China’s red-hot market upset stocks all around the world that month. And in the summer, gathering concern in the U.S. about the mortgage and housing markets reached alarming levels. The mortgage industry’s loose lending standards of recent years came back to haunt lenders, investors, and borrowers alike in 2007. Lenders responded by tightening lending standards, many borrowers could no longer qualify for loans, and home sales and refinancings slowed. These developments along with soaring oil prices made investors wary of U.S. economy’s direction.
Investors took some solace from strong growth abroad, but U.S. stocks nonetheless fell in June and July. The stocks of financial companies were hardest hit by the mortgage market’s woes. Investors had already been favoring the relative safety of larger stocks by then; and as they migrated toward large caps while also steering away from financials and other economically sensitive stocks, they boosted the prices of large-cap growth stocks in sectors such as technology. Large growth companies were also rewarded for being significant exporters, which was an advantage given weakness in the U.S. dollar. Moreover, many people felt growth stocks, and particularly large-cap growth stocks, were ripe for a rebound after lagging for several years. For the twelve-month period, growth stocks rose more than value stocks across all market-cap ranges; and large caps significantly outpaced small caps (although mid-caps beat both, benefiting from a wave of merger and acquisition activity early in the year).
Foreign stock returns surpassed the U.S. indices, partly because the major foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar. The Morgan Stanley Capital International-EAFE Index rose 25.43% for the period. Emerging markets were especially strong as high oil and commodity prices bolstered developing economies. The Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets Index returned 68.33%.
Bond returns were mixed early on but improved as nervous investors sought safety from the summer’s shaky stock market. The Federal Reserve Board’s rate cuts in September and October also helped boost bond prices. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (“LBAB”) finished the twelve-month period with a 5.38% return. Riskier high-yield bonds weakened as credit conditions worsened, but already had strong gains from earlier in the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Asset Allocation—Moderate Growth Portfolio Class A returned 17.48%. By comparison, its primary and secondary benchmarks, the DJ Wilshire 5000 and the LBAB, returned 15.29% and 5.38%, respectively. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class R were 0.60%, 1.27%, 1.23%, and 0.67%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
This fund-of-funds portfolio is structured to provide an approximately 70%, 25%, 5% mix of stocks, bonds and cash, respectively. Its equity exposure is intended to provide broadly diversified coverage of domestic and international equity markets, across a range of market capitalizations and investment styles. The fixed-income portion covers investment-grade and credit-sensitive holdings, as well as international bonds. The portfolio also includes emerging markets, global real estate, and absolute-return strategies.
The portfolio’s 17.48% return for the twelve-month period performed well versus its peer group, the Morningstar Moderate Allocation fund category. The best-performing underlying fund was TA IDEX Oppenheimer Developing Markets as emerging markets soared. The portfolio’s international exposure in general was a positive as the weakening dollar boosted returns for U.S. investors. With growth stocks leading the domestic market, several of the portfolio’s growth funds also posted strong gains, particularly TA IDEX Transamerica Growth Opportunities, TA IDEX Van Kampen Mid-Cap Growth, TA IDEX Marsico Growth, and TA IDEX Transamerica Equity. Although value stocks lagged, most of the portfolio’s value funds performed well relative to their categories, most notably TA IDEX Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value. Meanwhile, the portfolio’s two largest bond-fund positions, TA IDEX PIMCO Total Return and TA IDEX JPMorgan International Bond, both posted strong absolute returns.
In early 2007, we conducted a broad rebalancing, mainly to correct a small-cap overweight, rebalance the portfolio’s value and growth exposure, and better diversify the bond position. We believe the portfolio’s excellent returns for this period demonstrate the effectiveness of maintaining disciplined and balanced market coverage while focusing on identifying excellent managers in each style.
During the year, five new funds were added to the menu available for use in the portfolio: TA IDEX BlackRock Natural Resources, TA IDEX Loomis Sayles Bond, TA IDEX Third Avenue Value, and two absolute-return strategies—TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy and TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha. The portfolio currently owns all of these new funds.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any expenses from the Fund’s investment in other affiliated investment companies. The average weighted annualized expense ratio of the underlying investment companies at October 31, 2007 was 0.88%.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,021.87 | | 0.65 | | 3.30 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Asset Allocation – Moderate Portfolio
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Although the twelve-month period through October 31, 2007 witnessed plenty of market volatility, the stock and bond markets notched respectable gains. The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index returned 14.56%, while the broad Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index (“DJ Wilshire 5000”) gained 15.29%. These gains were not without interruption, however. A February tumble in China’s red-hot market upset stocks all around the world that month. And in the summer, gathering concern in the U.S. about the mortgage and housing markets reached alarming levels. The mortgage industry’s loose lending standards of recent years came back to haunt lenders, investors, and borrowers alike in 2007. Lenders responded by tightening lending standards, many borrowers could no longer qualify for loans, and home sales and refinancings slowed. These developments along with soaring oil prices made investors wary of U.S. economy’s direction.
Investors took some solace from strong growth abroad, but U.S. stocks nonetheless fell in June and July. The stocks of financial companies were hardest hit by the mortgage market’s woes. Investors had already been favoring the relative safety of larger stocks by then; and as they migrated toward large caps while also steering away from financials and other economically sensitive stocks, they boosted the prices of large-cap growth stocks in sectors such as technology. Large growth companies were also rewarded for being significant exporters, which was an advantage given weakness in the U.S. dollar. Moreover, many people felt growth stocks, and particularly large-cap growth stocks, were ripe for a rebound after lagging for several years. For the twelve-month period, growth stocks rose more than value stocks across all market-cap ranges; and large caps significantly outpaced small caps (although mid-caps beat both, benefiting from a wave of merger and acquisition activity early in the year).
Foreign stock returns surpassed the U.S. indices, partly because the major foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar. The Morgan Stanley Capital International-EAFE Index rose 25.43% for the period. Emerging markets were especially strong as high oil and commodity prices bolstered developing economies. The Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets Index returned 68.33%.
Bond returns were mixed early on but improved as nervous investors sought safety from the summer’s shaky stock market. The Federal Reserve Board’s rate cuts in September and October also helped boost bond prices. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index (“LBAB”) finished the twelve-month period with a 5.38% return. Riskier high-yield bonds weakened as credit conditions worsened, but already had strong gains from earlier in the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Asset Allocation—Moderate Portfolio Class A returned 14.51%. By comparison, its primary and secondary benchmarks, the DJ Wilshire 5000 and the LBAB, returned 15.29% and 5.38%, respectively. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, Class C, and Class R were 0.59%, 1.25%, 1.21%, and 0.72%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
This fund-of-funds portfolio is structured to provide an approximately 50%, 45%, 5% mix of stocks, bonds and cash, respectively. Its equity exposure is intended to provide broadly diversified coverage of domestic and international equity markets, across a range of market capitalizations and investment styles. The fixed-income portion covers investment-grade and credit-sensitive holdings, as well as international bonds. The portfolio also includes emerging markets, global real estate, and absolute-return strategies.
The portfolio’s 14.51% return for the twelve-month period performed well versus its peer group, the Morningstar Moderate Allocation fund category. The best-performing underlying fund was TA IDEX Oppenheimer Developing Markets as emerging markets soared. The portfolio’s international exposure in general was a positive as the weakening dollar boosted returns for U.S. investors. With growth stocks leading the domestic market, several of the portfolio’s growth funds also posted strong gains - including the two heaviest-weighted growth funds, TA IDEX Marsico Growth and TA IDEX Transamerica Equity. Although value stocks lagged, most of the portfolio’s value funds posted competitive returns relative to their categories, most notably TA IDEX Transamerica Small/Mid Cap Value. The portfolio’s largest bond position, bond fund TA IDEX PIMCO Total Return, performed well relative to the LBAB; and the next-largest bond position, TA IDEX JPMorgan International Bond, posted even better returns on an absolute return basis.
In early 2007, we conducted a broad rebalancing, mainly to correct a small-cap overweight, rebalance the portfolio’s value and growth exposure, and better diversify the bond position. We believe the portfolio’s strong returns for this period demonstrate the effectiveness of maintaining disciplined and balanced market coverage while focusing on identifying excellent managers in each style.
During the year, five new funds were added to the menu available for use in the portfolio: TA IDEX BlackRock Natural Resources, TA IDEX Loomis Sayles Bond, TA IDEX Third Avenue Value, and two absolute-return strategies -TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy and TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha. The portfolio currently owns all of these new funds.

NOTES
(1) The Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market (DJ Wilshire 5000) Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond (LBAB) Index are unmanaged indices used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares. Shares purchased prior to March 1, 2004 are subject to a maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 7 years) for Class B shares and (2% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 2 years) for Class C shares.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any expenses from the Fund’s investment in other affiliated investment companies. The average weighted annualized expense ratio of the underlying investment companies at October 31, 2007 was 0.85%.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,021.82 | | 0.66 | | 3.35 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Multi-Manager Alternative Strategies Fund
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Although the twelve-month period through October 31, 2007 witnessed plenty of market volatility, the stock and bond markets notched respectable gains. The Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index returned 14.56%, while the broad Dow Jones Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index gained 15.29%. These gains were not without interruption, however. A February tumble in China’s red-hot market upset stocks all around the world that month. And the summer brought troubles in the U.S. mortgage and housing markets. These developments along with soaring oil prices made investors wary of U.S. economy’s direction.
The stocks of financial companies were hit hard by the mortgage market’s woes. Investors had already been favoring the relative safety of larger stocks by then; and as they migrated toward large caps while also steering away from financials and other economically sensitive stocks, they boosted the prices of large-cap growth stocks in sectors such as technology. Moreover, many people felt growth stocks, and particularly large-cap growth stocks, were ripe for a rebound after lagging for several years. For the twelve-month period, growth stocks rose more than value stocks across all market-cap ranges.
Foreign stock returns surpassed the U.S. indices, partly because the major foreign currencies strengthened against the dollar. The Morgan Stanley Capital International- EAFE Index rose 25.43% for the period. Emerging markets were especially strong as high oil and commodity prices bolstered developing economies. The Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets Index returned 68.33%.
Bond returns were mixed early on but improved as nervous investors sought safety from the summer’s shaky stock market. The Federal Reserve Board’s rate cuts in September and October also helped boost bond prices. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index finished the twelve-month period with a 5.38% return. Riskier high-yield bonds weakened as credit conditions worsened, but already had strong gains from earlier in the period.
PERFORMANCE
For the period from inception, December 28, 2006 to October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Multi-Manager Alternative Strategies Fund, Class A returned 7.80%. By comparison its benchmark, the Merrill Lynch 3-Month Treasury Bill + 3% Wrap, returned 6.94%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A and Class C were 0.90% and 1.55%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio’s targeted return is between the equity markets and the bond markets while its target volatility is closer to that of the bond market. Thus far it has met both goals;-since inception, the volatility of its daily returns was roughly 35% that of the stock market’s.
Morningstar, Inc. categorizes the portfolio as a World Allocation portfolio. This categorization is something of a compromise, because the portfolio’s strategy is unique enough that it does not fit well into any existing category. Since the average World Allocation portfolio has 60% of its assets in stocks, and equities have performed well so far in 2007, our portfolio’s return ranking looks poor compared with that category.
This fund-of-funds portfolio is structured to have roughly 40% exposure to absolute-return-like strategies and 28% exposure to each of the less-correlated equity and fixed income sub-asset classes/strategies, with the remainder in cash. The absolute-return-like portion was by far the weakest performer so far in 2007. Three of the four funds which make up that portion of the portfolio—TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha, TA IDEX Federated Market Opportunity, and TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy, each weighed at about 11% of assets—posted slightly negative returns for the period. From among the absolute-return-like strategies, only TA IDEX BlackRock Global Allocation did well in this rising market environment, mainly because it is a more traditional, though tactical, long-only portfolio.
If the absolute-return strategies disappointed so far in 2007, the less-correlated equity and fixed income sleeves made up for it. The rising prices of commodities, oil in particular, propelled TA IDEX BlackRock Natural Resources to a significant gain since its inception of January 3, 2007. The underlying international offerings were also very strong, with TA IDEX Oppenheimer Developing Markets and TA IDEX Evergreen International Small Cap posting significant gains for the ten months ended October 31, 2007; for the same period, TA IDEX Bjurman, Barry Emerging Micro Growth and TA IDEX Clarion Global Real Estate Securities posted a relatively modest return. On the bond side, TA IDEX Loomis Sayles Bond was a little hampered by its below-investment-grade exposure but TA IDEX JPMorgan International Bond benefited from the dollar’s weakness.
Overall, we are pleased with the portfolio’s results in its first ten months of existence, particularly given the sluggish performance of the absolute-return strategies that make up the largest portion of its assets. The portfolio’s solid showing in spite of that obstacle is a demonstration of the benefits of diversifying among a solid group of underlying managers.

Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any expenses from the Fund’s investment in other affiliated investment companies. The average weighted annualized expense ratio of the underlying investment companies at October 31, 2007 was 0.97%.

TA IDEX Multi-Manager International Fund
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Although the twelve-month period through October 31, 2007 witnessed plenty of volatility in international markets, foreign stocks posted strong gains, especially for U.S. investors, whose returns were enhanced because of the weakening dollar. The Morgan Stanley Capital International-World ex-U.S. Index (“MSCIW ex. USA”) returned 26.87% in dollars, but a more modest 15.14% in local currency. Large-cap stocks in developed markets posted slightly higher gains than smaller-cap stocks, reversing a multi-year streak in which smaller-caps had outperformed significantly. The Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Small Cap Index rose 22.44% in dollars. Emerging-markets stocks posted stunning gains, with the Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets Index rising 68.33% in dollars.
The ride was not particularly smooth. After shooting upward in November and December 2006, international stocks took a breather at the beginning of 2007. On February 27, China’s Shanghai Stock Index fell 9%, sending shockwaves through global markets. Those losses did not derail the momentum in foreign markets for long, however, and international markets rebounded until mid-summer, driven by global economic growth, corporate profitability, and record-setting merger-and-acquisition activity. In mid-July, however, gathering concern about the spread of problems in the U.S. mortgage and housing markets sent returns into the red. More risky fare in emerging markets and in the smaller-cap reaches of developed markets fell, as the market essentially re-priced risk. Beginning in mid-August, investor confidence was bolstered by the efforts of the U.S. and European central banks to restore liquidity and international markets rebounded strongly through the end of October.
Growth stocks, which many investors thought were due to rebound after lagging for several years, outperformed value stocks, which were weakened during the liquidity crunch. Asia ex-Japan was the best performing developed-markets region, followed by Europe, the United Kingdom, and Japan. Emerging markets were paced by China and Brazil, where stock markets more than doubled in value during the twelve-month period.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Multi-Manager International Fund Class A returned 31.30%. By comparison, its benchmark, the MSCIW ex USA, returned 26.87%. As of October 31, 2007, the Fund’s net expense ratios for Class A, Class B, and Class C were 0.65%, 1.43%, and 1.31%, respectively.
STRATEGY REVIEW
This fund-of-funds is structured to provide broad coverage of international equity markets. Its underlying fund holdings cover a range of international investing styles, including large value, large growth, all cap, small cap, emerging markets, and global real estate. The portfolio typically devotes approximately 30% to 35% of assets to international mid-cap and small-cap stocks and about 20% of assets to emerging-markets stocks.
The portfolio’s 31.30% return for the twelve-month period performed well versus its peer group, the Morningstar Foreign Large Blend fund category. The portfolio was helped by its emerging-markets exposure, which was higher than that of the index or the fund peer group. The best-performing underlying fund was TA IDEX Oppenheimer Developing Markets. The large-growth-oriented TA IDEX Marsico International Growth posted a significant gain, partly on the strength of its emerging-markets holdings, and the smaller-cap TA IDEX Evergreen International Small Cap surpassed the small-cap index.
Although it lagged the index, the portfolio’s underlying large-value portfolio, TA IDEX AllianceBernstein International Value had a gain. The all-cap TA IDEX Neuberger Berman International also performed well; held below the index by its housing-related stocks. After an incredible multi-year run, global real estate cooled during the twelve-month period, and TA IDEX Clarion Global Real Estate Securities return detracted from the portfolio’s overall performance.

NOTES
(1) The Morgan Stanley Capital International World ex USA (MSCI World ex USA) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class A shares. You cannot invest directly in an index.
The performance data presented represents past performance; future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.
Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Public Offering Price (POP) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains and reflect the maximum sales charge of 5.5% for A shares or the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge (5% in the 1st year, decreasing to 0% after 6 years) for Class B shares and 1% (during the first 12 months) for Class C shares.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this Fund. The ability of the Fund to achieve its objective depends largely on the performance of the underlying funds in which it invests, a pro-rata portion of whose operating expenses the Fund bears. Investments in global/international markets involve risks not associated with U.S. markets, such as currency fluctuations, adverse social and political developments, and the relatively small size and lesser liquidity of the markets. The Fund may utilize strategies and hedging techniques in matched combinations that are designed to neutralize or offset the risks of each strategy employing these techniques separately. Some strategies include long/short and market neutral strategies; bear market strategies; tactical investment strategies (debt and/or equity); foreign currency trading strategies; global real estate securities; commodities and/or natural resources and/or precious metals; and non-traditional investments (such as micro-cap stocks and emerging market stocks). There is no assurance that these strategies will protect against losses. Certain hedging techniques and leverage employed in the management of the Fund may accelerate the velocity of possible losses.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, 12b-1 distribution and service fees, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. If your account is an IRA, your expenses could have included a $15 annual fee. The amount of any fee paid through your account would increase the estimate of expenses you paid during the period and decrease your ending account value.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. As in the case of the actual expense example, if your account is subject to an IRA fee, the amount of the fee paid through your account would increase the hypothetical expenses you would have paid during the period and decrease the hypothetical ending account value.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any expenses from the Fund’s investment in other affiliated investment companies. The average weighted annualized expense ratio of the underlying investment companies at October 31, 2007 was 1.10%.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
At October 31, 2007
(all amounts in thousands)
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). TA IDEX Asset Allocation–Conservative Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation–Growth Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation–Moderate Growth Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation–Moderate Portfolio, TA IDEX Multi–Manager Alternative Strategies Fund and TA IDEX Multi–Manager International Fund, (each, a “Fund” collectively the “Funds”), are part of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds.
In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or their affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
This report should be read in conjunction with the Funds’ current prospectuses, which contains more complete information about the Funds.
In preparing the Funds’ financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
Multiple class operations, income and expenses: The Funds, with the exception of TA IDEX Multi–Manager International Fund and TA IDEX Multi- Manager Alternative Strategies Fund, currently offer four classes of shares, Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Class R commenced operations on June 15, 2006. TA IDEX Multi–Manager International Fund currently offers three classes of shares, Class A, Class B and Class C, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. TA IDEX Multi–Manager Alternative Strategies Fund currently offers two classes of shares, Class A and Class C, each with a public offering price that reflects different sales charges, if any, and expense levels. Class B shares will convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily to each class, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Each class bears its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.
Security valuations: Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.
Cash: Each Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, State Street Bank & Trust Company (“State Street”). On July 2, 2007, State Street acquired the parent company of Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). State Street has been contracted on behalf of the Funds to invest the excess cash into their savings accounts, which at October 31, 2007 were paying an interest rate of 3.00%.
Throughout the year, the Funds may have cash overdraft balances. A fee is incurred on these overdrafts, calculated by multiplying the overdrafts by a rate based on the federal funds rate.
Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and net realized gain (loss) from investment securities for the Funds are from investments in shares of affiliated investment companies.
Redemption fees: A short-term trading redemption fee may be assessed on any Fund shares in a fund account that are sold during the first five (5) New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) trading days following their purchase date. This redemption fee will equal 2% of the amount redeemed and shares held the longest will be treated as being redeemed first and shares held the shortest as being redeemed last. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the Funds received redemption fees, which are located in the Funds’ Statements of Changes in Net Assets.
Dividend distributions: Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations.
NOTE 2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Transamerica Fund Advisors, Inc. (“TFAI”) is the Funds’ investment adviser. Transamerica Fund Services, Inc. (“TFS”) is the Funds’ administrator and transfer agent. Transamerica Capital Inc. (“TCI”) is the Funds’ distributor/principal underwriter. Prior to May 1, 2007, AFSG Securities Corp. (“AFSG”) was the Funds’ distributor/principal underwriter. TFAI, TFS, and TCI are affiliates of AEGON NV, a Netherlands corporation.
Transamerica Investment Management, LLC (“TIM”) is an affiliate of the Funds and a sub-adviser to other funds within Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds.
Certain officers and trustees of the Funds are also officers and/or directors of TFAI, TFS and TCI.
Because the underlying funds have varied expense and fee levels and the Funds may own different proportions of underlying funds at different times, the amount of fees and expenses incurred indirectly by the Funds will vary.
Investment advisory fees: The Funds pay management fees to TFAI based on average daily net assets (“ANA”) at the following rates:
41
Fund | | Rate of ANA |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Conservative Portfolio | | 0.10% of ANA |

The following Fund had an amount available to recapture at October 31, 2007:
TA IDEX Multi-Manager | | Reimbursement of | | Available for | |

Distribution and service fees: The Funds have 12b-1 distribution plans under the 1940 Act pursuant to which an annual fee, based on average daily net assets, is paid to the distributor for various disbursements such as broker-dealer account servicing fees and other promotional expenses of the Funds. The Funds are authorized under the 12b-1 plans to pay fees on each available class up to the following limits: 0.35% for Class A; 1.00% for Class B; 1.00% for Class C; and 0.50% for Class R.
In the case the Funds or a class of shares of the Funds is closed to new investors or investments, the Funds are authorized to pay 12b-1 fees for past sales and distribution efforts and present and past investor services.

Deferred compensation plan: Each eligible independent Fund Trustee may elect to participate in a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the “Plan”) maintained by Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds. Under the Plan, such Trustees may defer payment of all or a portion of their total fees earned as a Fund Trustee. Each Trustee who is a participant in the Plan may elect that the earnings, losses or gains credited to his or her deferred fee amounts be determined based on a deemed investment in any series of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, including the Funds. The right of a participant to receive a distribution from the Plan of the deferred fees is an unfunded and unsecured claim against the general assets of all series of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds. The pro rata liability to the Funds of all deferred fees in the Plan amounted, as of October 31, 2007, to the following:
Fund | | Deferred Fees | |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Conservative Portfolio | | $ | 17 | |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Growth Portfolio | | 31 | |

Retirement plan: Under a retirement plan (the “Emeritus Plan”) available to the Independent Trustees, each Independent Trustee is deemed to have elected to serve as Trustee Emeritus of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds upon his or her termination of service, other than removal for cause, for a maximum period of five years determined by his or her years of service as a Trustee.
The amounts shall be accrued by Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds on a pro rata basis allocable to each Transamerica IDEX Mutual Fund based on the relative assets of the fund. If retainers increase in the future, past accruals (and credits) will be adjusted upward so that 50% of the Trustee’s current retainer is accrued and credited at all times. Upon death, disability or termination of service, other than removal for cause, amounts deferred become payable to an Emeritus Trustee (or his/her beneficiary). Upon the commencement of service as Trustee Emeritus, compensation will be paid on a quarterly basis during the time period that the Trustee Emeritus is allowed to serve as such.
For the year ended October 31, 2007, the amounts related to the Emeritus Plan were as follows:
| | Emeritus Fees | |
Fund | | Due | |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Conservative Portfolio | | $ | 26 | |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Growth Portfolio | | 73 | |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Moderate Growth Portfolio | | 135 | |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Moderate Portfolio | | 82 | |
TA IDEX Multi-Manager Alternative Strategies Fund | | — | |
TA IDEX Multi-Manager International Fund | | 4 | |
| | | | |
As of October 31, 2007, the Funds had not made any payments related to the Emeritus Plan. Amounts deferred and accrued under the Deferred Compensation and Emeritus Plans are unfunded and unsecured claims against the general assets of Transamerica IDEX.
The Emeritus Plan was terminated effective October 30, 2007. Upon the termination, the Fund shall continue to pay any remaining benefits in accordance with the Plan, but no further compensation shall accrue under the Plan.

NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
The Funds have not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to their policy to distribute all of their taxable income and capital gains to their shareholders and otherwise qualify as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatment for items including, but not limited to, wash sales and distribution reclasses.
Therefore, distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ significantly in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Financial records are not adjusted for temporary differences. These reclassifications are as follows:
Fund | | Shares of beneficial interest, unlimited shares authorized | | Undistributed (accumulated) net investment income (loss) | | Undistributed (accumulated) net realized gain (loss) from investment securities | |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Growth Portfolio | | $ | (8,809 | ) | $ | 5,787 | | $ | 3,022 | |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Moderate Growth Portfolio | | — | | 1 | | (1 | ) |
TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Moderate Portfolio | | — | | 1 | | (1 | ) |
TA IDEX Multi-Manager Alternative Strategies Fund | | (7 | ) | 7 | | — | |

The capital loss carryforwards utilized during the year ended October 31, 2007 were as follows:
Fund | | Capital Loss Carryforwards Utilized During the Year Ended October 31, 2007 | |
TA IDEX Multi-Manager International Fund | | $ | 1,516 | |
| | | | |
The tax character of distributions paid may differ from the character of distributions shown in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets due to short-term gains being treated as ordinary income for tax purposes.
The tax character of distributions paid during 2006 and 2007 was as follows:
| | Distributions Paid | | Distributions Paid | |
| | From: 2006 | | From: 2007 | |
| | | | Long-term | | | | Long-term | |
| | Ordinary | | Capital | | Ordinary | | Capital | |

The tax basis components of distributable earnings as of October 31, 2007 are as follows:

NOTE 5. REGULATORY PROCEEDINGS
There continues to be significant federal and state regulatory activity relating to financial services companies, particularly mutual fund companies and their investment advisers. As part of an ongoing investigation regarding potential market timing, recordkeeping and trading compliance issues and matters affecting the Funds’ investment adviser, TFAI, and certain affiliates and former employees of TFAI, the SEC staff has indicated that it is likely to take some action against TFAI and certain of its affiliates at the conclusion of the investigation. The potential timing and the scope of any such action is difficult to predict. Although the impact of any action brought against TFAI and/or its affiliates is difficult to assess at the present time, the Funds currently believe that the likelihood that any such action will have a material adverse impact is remote. It is important to note that the Funds are not aware of any allegation of wrongdoing against them and their Boards at the time this annual report is printed. Although it is not anticipated that these developments will have an adverse impact on the Funds, there can be no assurance at this time. TFAI and its affiliates are actively working with the SEC in regard to this matter; however, the exact resolution cannot be determined at this time. TFAI will take such actions that it deems necessary or appropriate to continue providing management services to the Funds and to bring all matters to an appropriate conclusion.
TFAI and/or its affiliates, and not the Funds, will bear the costs regarding these regulatory matters.
NOTE 6. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (“FIN 48”), an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the accounting and disclosure of 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 not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is effective during the first required financial reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.
Implementation of FIN 48 requires Management of the Funds to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the Statute of Limitations, for all major jurisdictions, which includes federal and certain states. Open tax years are those that are open for exam by taxing authorities (i.e., the last 4 tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). The Funds have no examinations in progress and none are expected at this time.
As of September 28, 2007, Management of the Funds have reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded the adoption of FIN 48 resulted in no impact the Funds’ net assets or results of operations. There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. The Funds are also not aware of any tax
44
positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next 12 months.
In September 2006, FASB issued its new Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 is designed to unify guidance for the measurement of fair value of all types of assets, including financial instruments, and certain liabilities, throughout a number of accounting standards. FAS 157 also establishes a hierarchy for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements that are relevant to mutual funds. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and earlier application is permitted.
As of October 31, 2007, Management does not expect the adoption of FAS 157 to impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain of the measurements reported in the statement of operations for a fiscal period.

Report of Independent Registered Certified Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Conservative Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Growth Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Moderate Growth Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Moderate Portfolio, TA IDEX Multi-Manager Alternative Strategies Fund, and TA IDEX Multi-Manager International Fund:
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 TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Conservative Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Growth Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Moderate Growth Portfolio, TA IDEX Asset Allocation - Moderate Portfolio, TA IDEX Multi-Manager Alternative Strategies Fund, and TA IDEX Multi-Manager International Fund (individually a “Fund”, collectively the “Funds”) at October 31, 2007, 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 indicated, 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 October 31, 2007 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Dear Fellow Shareholder,
On behalf of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, I would like to thank you for your continued support and confidence in our products as we look forward to continuing to serve you and your financial adviser in the future. We value the trust you have placed in us.
This annual report is provided to you with the intent of presenting a comprehensive review of the investments of each of your funds. The Securities and Exchange Commission requires that annual and semi-annual reports be sent to all shareholders, and we believe this report to be an important part of the investment process. In addition to providing a comprehensive review, this report also provides a discussion of accounting policies as well as matters presented to shareholders that may have required their vote.
We believe it is important to recognize and understand current market conditions in order to provide a context for reading this report. The positive returns experienced in the equity markets for the trailing 12 months ending October 31, 2007, mask the volatility experienced along the way, with significant pullbacks occurring in February-March and July-August. The Federal Reserve Board (“Federal Reserve”) was on hold for most of the past twelve months but more recently in September and October lowered its target for the federal funds rate by 0.50% and 0.25% respectively. The rate reductions by the Federal Reserve signaled an effort to inject liquidity and stability to the markets which have been adversely affected by concerns over subprime debt. While Gross Domestic Product growth remains positive, investor concerns over the extent to which subprime debt may affect consumer spending and persistently high oil prices have been a check on market returns. For the twelve months ending October 31, 2007, the Dow Jones Industrial Average returned 17.94%, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index returned 14.56%, and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index returned 5.38%. Please keep in mind it is important to maintain a diversified portfolio as investment returns have historically been difficult to predict.
In addition to your active involvement in the investment process, we firmly believe that a financial adviser is a key resource to help you build a complete picture of your current and future financial needs. Financial advisors are familiar with the market’s history, including long-term returns and volatility of various asset classes.
With your financial adviser, you can develop an investment program that incorporates factors such as your goals, your investment timeline, and your risk tolerance.
Please contact your financial adviser if you have any questions about the contents of this report, and thanks again for the confidence you have placed in us.
Sincerely,
John K. Carter | Christopher A. Staples |

MARKET ENVIRONMENT
International equity markets were strong for the twelve months ending October 31, 2007, as the Morgan Stanley Capital International (EAFE) Index (“MSCI-EAFE”) rose 25.43%. Gains were witnessed through the middle of 2006 as markets were boosted by optimism about the outlook for global economic growth and corporate profitability. However, by the end of the second quarter, markets suffered a severe bout of turbulence amid a liquidity crisis in short-term money markets triggered by mounting problems in the US sub-prime mortgage market. Markets rebounded through October after injections of liquidity by many central banks and a cut in US interest rates helped to ease investor anxiety. Most sectors posted double digit returns for the period, although finance and medical stocks lagged.

For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX AllianceBernstein International Value Class I returned 23.99%. By comparison its benchmark, the MSCI-EAFE, returned 25.43%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.93%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Contributors to our performance premium during the period were concentrated in the transportation and industrial commodities sector. Steelmakers JFE Holdings, Inc., ArcelorMittal and voestalpine AG benefited from high steel prices, while commodity price strength lifted shares of diversified Anglo-Swiss miner Xstrata plc. In the transportation sector, Japanese shipping company Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. benefited from strong demand and a recovery in shipping rates. Our overweight of the industrial commodities sector, and our underweight of the medical sector, also contributed to performance.
Detractors from relative returns were both our overweight and the relative weakness of some of our holdings within the financial sector. The biggest detractors in terms of stock selection included some of our Japanese financial holdings, notably leasing and consumer finance group ORIX Corporation and Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group Inc., one of Japan’s three biggest nationwide banking groups. Both stocks suffered due to the market’s jitters over the sub-prime loan crisis despite having limited exposure to sub-prime mortgages or related financial products. The Bank of Japan’s decision to delay an expected increase in interest rates also dampened the market’s hopes that higher rates would help to widen banks’ lending margins. Also suffering from the sub-prime crisis were positions in financial companies ING Groep N.V. and HBOS plc. Meanwhile, investors reacted negatively to Fortis SA/NV’s participation in a consortium that is bidding for ABN AMRO Holding N.V., fearing that it will overpay for the Dutch bank.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is seful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,073.59 | | 0.93 | % | $ | 4.85 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.46 | | 0.93 | | 4.72 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Bjurman, Barry Micro Emerging Growth
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
US equities have sustained a strong performance for the fiscal year period, credited to a mix of strong corporate profits, expanding global economies, and relatively low interest rates. However, the stock market’s tone progressively turned less optimistic as troubles in the market for risky mortgages surfaced.
Volatility in financial markets surged, faced with the effects of a spreading credit crunch that brought about massive losses in several banks and hedge funds. Rising energy prices further helped to sour investors’ mood, raising concerns about a possible drag on corporate profits and consumer spending. Nevertheless, the Federal Reserve Board lowered its federal funds rate in consecutive meetings, successfully revitalizing the market.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Bjurman, Barry Micro Emerging Growth Class I returned 19.48%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 2000 Growth Index (“Russell 2000 Growth”), returned 16.73%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 1.16%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Corporate profits have weakened relative to earlier periods, as a result of the economic slowdown induced by the credit turmoil. The sectors that performed the best were energy, technology, manufacturing, and basic materials, with financials, transportation, and consumer sector components clearly lagging behind.
The portfolio outperformed the Russell 2000 Growth due to positive results in both sector allocation and selection. The portfolio was appropriately overweighted in the faster earnings growth sectors such as technology, energy, and manufacturing; at the same time it avoided the worse performing retail and financial stocks. The selection results were helped in large part by good performance in select energy (Flowtech Industries Ag, Arena Resources, Inc.), transportation (TBS International Limited, Navios Maritime Holdings Inc.), and consumer staples (Jones Soda Co.) stocks. The stocks that had the greatest negative impact were C-COR Incorporated, Premier Exhibitions, Inc., and Portfolio Recovery Associates, Inc.
Company size was a key contributor of performance. Within the small cap arena, investors have gravitated towards larger capitalization stocks, benefiting the sizeweighted Russell 2000 Growth. The portfolio had a heavier weighting in the smaller capitalization and micro-cap stocks, disadvantaging its stocks.
Though value-oriented stocks dominated in 2006, growth stocks have outperformed for most of 2007, coming off several years of underperformance. The marketplace has increasingly favored companies characterized by high earnings growth and momentum; attributes that we favor and are typically found in the portfolio.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

TA IDEX BlackRock Global Allocation
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
For the period November 1, 2006 through October 31, 2007, global equity and bond markets posted favorable returns. Strong global growth, coupled with relatively low interest rates allowed global equities, as measured by the Financial Times Stock Exchange World Index (“FTSE World”) to post a solid twelve-month return of 23.44%. The environment for bonds, while not quite as favorable as that for equities, was also positive, with the Lehman Brothers Global Aggregate Bond Index returning 8.91% in U.S. dollar terms for the twelve-month period ended October 31, 2007. Despite this favorable economic backdrop, rising interest rates outside the U.S., credit issues related to U.S. sub-prime mortgages, and rising oil prices all contributed to making the period more volatile than the final performance numbers would lead one to assume.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX BlackRock Global Allocation Class I returned 21.95%. By comparison its primary and former benchmarks, the FTSE World and the Morgan Stanley Capital International World Index, returned 23.44% and 20.97%, respectively. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.85%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio invests in a combination of equities and bonds; therefore, provides both a truer representation of the portfolio’s composition and a more comparable means for measurement. Returns for each component of the portfolio for the twelve-months ended October 31, 2007, were as follows; the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500”) returned +14.56%, the FTSE World Index (ex-U.S.) returned +30.99%; the Merrill Lynch current 5-year Treasury Index returned +6.39%; and the Citigroup (non-USD) World Government Bond Index returned +10.33%. The portfolio outpaced the 18.60% average return of the Lipper Global Flexible Portfolio Funds category for the same twelve-month period..
The portfolio capitalized on favorable equity performance in most markets around the world. Although underweight equities relative to its benchmark, the portfolio’s overweight in non-U.S. equities contributed favorably to returns. The portfolio benefited from an overweight exposure to Asian equities, including India, China, and South Korea, in addition to Brazil. Effective security selection within these countries – and within the U.S. (although underweight relative to the benchmark) also contributed favorably. Although underweight in bonds, the portfolio benefited from the composition of its fixed income component. This included a sizeable allocation to U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (“TIPS”) and nominal Treasuries, and an overweight in Asian convertibles and short-dated (local currency-denominated) fixed income in emerging markets (notably Brazil). Also contributing to performance was the portfolio’s underweight U.S. dollar-denominated assets relative to its benchmark. Detracting moderately from the portfolio’s relative twelve-month performance was its overweight Japanese equities and underweight within the information technology sector.
Relative to its benchmark, the portfolio is moderately underweight equities at 54%. Although relatively neutral in terms of allocation to equities as an asset class, the portfolio has a meaningful overweight position in Asian stocks and a meaningful underweight position in U.S. stocks. At 29%, the portfolio is also underweight fixed income securities relative to its benchmark. The portfolio’s allocation to fixed income is relatively neutral in terms of U.S. bonds but is underweight non-U.S. bonds relative to its benchmark, reflecting the assessment that available yields outside the U.S. are not attractive relative to the risks of higher long-term interest rates. Credit quality of the portfolio’s fixed income component is quite high, with substantial allocations to nominal Treasuries and TIPS. The portfolio is overweight cash equivalents (17%) relative to its benchmark, partially due to our desire to keep portfolio duration low, notably in non-U.S. bonds.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,119.28 | | 0.84 | % | $ | 4.47 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.91 | | 0.84 | | 4.27 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX BlackRock Large Cap Value
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
In light of the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) rate decisions in September and October, a new monetary easing cycle has begun, which is normally a bullish signal for risk assets. Stocks typically do well when the Fed starts to cut rates, even though the economic and earnings outlook is deteriorating. But the outlook is not without its challenges. There is no precedent in the post-WWII period for the ongoing destruction in housing wealth, which creates considerable uncertainty about the outlook for consumer spending and the economy.
Even if recession is avoided, as we believe, earnings expectations are too high. The bottom-up consensus of analysts’ projections implies the Standard and Poor’s 500 operating earnings growth of 11-12% in 2008. We believe earnings growth will be half that at best. Those companies most exposed to international trade will fare well, while those most dependent on domestic growth will struggle. So, while the liquidity and interest rate backdrop is supportive for equities, there is still a big question mark over earnings. The good news is that these economic events are occurring from a starting point of very strong consumer and corporate sector balance sheets. The combination of a decent global economic backdrop, reasonable valuations, plentiful liquidity and what will become more stimulative policy conditions will continue to support equity prices. There could be considerable volatility in the months ahead, but we believe that the path of least resistance is for equity prices to move higher.
A relatively healthy global economy and a weaker dollar support the case for emphasizing globally-focused assets rather than ones that depend heavily on U.S. domestic demand. We still recommend a two-pronged approach to equity investing. Prong #1 is a recognition that the U.S. economy is sluggish, requiring a focus on higher quality and higher predictability. This points one to health care, selected technology and other growth stocks. Prong #2 recognizes that the rest of the world, especially Asia, is growing nicely. This points one to technology and selected energy, materials and industrial stocks with an emphasis on non-U.S. earnings.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX BlackRock Large Cap Value, Class I returned 11.80%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value, returned 10.83%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.84%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Sector allocation decisions proved additive, with an underweight to financials and an overweight to energy accounting for most of outperformance. Stock selection was also positive in financials, healthcare and industrials; however these positive effects were offset by selection issues in consumer discretionary, consumer staples and telecommunications. Individual names that proved most additive included Tesoro Corporation (energy), EMC Corporation (information technology (“IT”)), Medco Health Solutions, Inc. (healthcare), Cummins, Inc. (industrials) and United States Steel Corporation (materials). Companies that detracted included AMR Corporation (industrials), Time Warner Inc. (consumer discretionary), Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (financials), Sun Microsystems (IT) and an underweight exposure to AT&T Inc. (telecommunications).
Late July and early August were challenging periods for the portfolio. There were a number of causes that contributed to the August market turmoil, but the selling pressure on some stocks is believed to have been the result of many large quantitative, model-driven, multi-strategy, highly levered funds that experienced losses across many of their strategies and were forced to raise cash and de-lever in order to fund investor withdrawals. With many of these quantitative managers unwinding significant factor based portfolios in tandem, these factors started to behave in perverse (i.e. exactly reverse) ways. Because many quantitative managers employ similar factors in their models, this abnormal factor phenomenon was not confined to a few funds, and the contagion spread broadly to a number of quantitative managers. It is important and worth remembering, however, that the TA IDEX BlackRock Large Cap Value investment strategy is not purely a quantitative strategy but rather a blend of quantitative and fundamental approaches. That said, however, our process is biased enough to the quantitative side that we were not shielded from the extreme, exogenous events of July and August. None-the-less, we have not made changes to and remain confident in our quantitative model as it helps us identify well managed companies with good earnings growth rates that are trading at reasonable valuations. Likewise, the fundamental and portfolio construction components of our strategy also remain unchanged.
In terms of portfolio positioning, we continue to maintain overweight positions in IT and health care along with underweight positions in financials and consumer related sectors.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,017.90 | | 0.84 | % | $ | 4.26 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.91 | | 0.84 | | 4.27 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) | | Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days). |

TA IDEX BlackRock Natural Resources
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Since the inception of TA IDEX BlackRock Natural Resources in January of this year, energy and commodities prices have moved mostly higher, driven by strong global demand and the continued weakening of the US Dollar. Notably, high refining margins and sustained energy demand at elevated price levels has served as a catalyst for energy stocks. Natural gas prices have lagged relative to oil prices, however, due primarily to elevated storage levels. As a result, larger cap energy stocks have outperformed smaller cap energy stocks (many of the natural gas producers are smaller cap companies), with oil service and integrated oil stocks leading the way.
PERFORMANCE
For the period from inception December 27, 2006 through October 31, 2007, TA IDEX BlackRock Natural Resources, Class I returned 41.10%. By comparison its benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International Natural Resources Index (“MSCI Natural Resources”), returned 33.02%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.89%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
More recently, sub prime-related credit concerns have dominated market sentiment. However, energy prices and stocks have managed to hold their own, rallying substantially through the third quarter. While volatility in the overall market has risen dramatically throughout the year, natural resources stocks have benefited as investors seek real assets, inflation hedges, and industries with strong growth potential that are removed from the turmoil of the financial sector. Gold and other commodity prices have also benefited from recent interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve Board and the resulting downward pressure exerted on the US Dollar. Going forward, we believe, the primary threat to a continued strong outlook for natural resources prices would be a negative shift in global demand. Given the seemingly ever-growing credit problems, the risks to downward pressure on natural resource demand resulting from an economic slowdown should not be overlooked. However, our overall outlook for the sector remains optimistic, as demand from developing countries should continue to support prices over the long term.
Since inception, the portfolio has outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI Natural Resources. Throughout the period, the portfolio maintained its long-term focus and benefited from superior stock selection, particularly within the equipment and services, aluminum, and integrated oil and gas sectors. Positions with the greatest positive impact on performance included National Oilwell Varco, Inc., Aluminum Corporation of China Limited, and Murphy Oil Corporation. Additionally, our overweight in oil and gas exploration and production and our exposure to Brazil and China aided relative performance. While we did not own many negative performing stocks in the portfolio, TUSK Energy Corporation. and Crew Energy Inc. were the largest detractors from performance.
Given record-high storage levels and the potential for another warmer than expected winter heating season, we have reduced our exposure to natural gas companies. We remain leveraged to the tight supply balance in global oil markets, as well as energy service and equipment companies that are benefiting from increased spending. We also maintain exposure to metals and mining companies, including gold miners.

TA IDEX Evergreen International Small Cap
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The strong absolute performance of international small cap equity market during the year ended October 31, 2007 masked a number of periods of extreme volatility in the period. The most recent of these took place in July and August driven by problems in the U.S. sub-prime mortgage market, the impact of which quickly spread to global bond and equity markets. Despite the recovery in equity markets from mid August to the end of the fiscal year, lingering nervousness and uncertainties remained in investors’ minds.
Over the year, all sectors and geographic regions, with the exception of Japan, achieved positive double digit gains. Japan’s return was slightly negative. The portfolio participated in the market strength providing strong investment returns and outperforming the benchmark index in the process.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Evergreen International Small Cap, Class I returned 34.72%. By comparison its benchmark, the S&P/Citigroup Global ex-U.S. EMI Index, returned 34.18%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 1.13%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio maintained its focus on small and mid cap stocks throughout the year. Changes in the portfolio were driven largely by stock specific issues, such as strong moves, corporate takeovers, etc. However, in the periods of market disruption, top-down influences played some part. Increases in Europe, Asia ex-Japan and emerging markets were funded by reductions in the United Kingdom (“UK”), Japan and cash levels. Sectorially, the moves translated into increases in consumer discretionary, industrials, materials and energy with consumer staples, utilities and financials being the largest reductions. There was a combination of new and eliminated stock holdings as well as increases and reductions in existing positions. Notable new names included Rhodia and Technip, both French companies with interests in specialty chemicals and in oil, gas and petrochemical industries, respectively. SINA Corporation, the online Chinese media company and internet service provider and Balfour Beatty plc, the UK-based construction and engineering firm, were other significant additions. Among the larger increases were Adidas AG, Germany’s leader in sports apparel, Nokian Renkaat Oyi, the Finnish specialist tire manufacturer with a sizeable exposure to the Russian marketplace, and Compania de Distribucion Integral Logista, S.A., the Spanish distributor of tobacco products. Larger eliminations included C&C Group plc (“C&C Group”), the Irish soft drink and alcoholic beverage producer that suffered from the impact of poor summer conditions in the UK; and Swedish Match AB, Anglo Irish Bank Corporation plc and Photo-Me International plc (“Photo-Me”), all of which were strong performers in prior periods and for which the outlook, we believed, appeared less favorable. The year also saw a number of takeovers, particularly in utilities and this led to a reduction in exposure to this sector.
On a sector basis, the major contributions came from consumer discretionary, industrials, health care and utilities. Of the top ten contributors for the period, five came from industrials and many of the top ten stocks had returns of over 100% in the year. On a regional basis, strong stock outperformance catapulted Europe and the UK to being the largest contributors. Within Europe, the strength was broadly based. An underweight in the negative performing Japanese market coupled with outperformance from our holdings there, supported its positive relative contribution. The UK’s The GAME Group plc, a leading specialist retailer of interactive entertainment, reflected the attractiveness of the sector given the launches during the year of new game consoles such as the Nintendo Wii and Sony PlayStation 3, was the best individual holding. A close second in contribution was Dutch-based Royal Boskalis Westminster N.V., a global leader in dredging, which announced that order books are still swelling; pricing is increasing; and some very large projects are still coming into the pipeline. Spain’s Grifols S.A., whose principal activities are the procurement, manufacture, preparation and sale of therapeutic products, also performed strongly. It continued to benefit from the increased demand of plasma derivative products due to improvement of health standards in emerging countries.
Detractors by sector for the period came from an underweight and some stock underperformances in materials and energy. Cash levels in the portfolio in a year of robust performance also detracted. On a regional basis, the portfolio’s underweight positions in emerging markets and Asia ex-Japan proved negative. The majority of the larger detracting holdings were stocks which had contributed strongly in prior periods and turned in poor performance during this year. Among those were C&C Group, already highlighted, and Photo-Me, the UK-based manufacturer of photographic printing equipment, both of which were eliminated during the year. Others included Neopost S.A., the French developer and manufacturer of office equipment and mail solutions, and Germany’s PATRIZIA Immobilien AG, which specializes in the redevelopment and sale of residential properties.
We have witnessed a clear negative impact from the credit crunch that originated with the negative developments in the sub-prime loan and asset-backed security markets. Financial stocks have been the most hurt, but the impact has been felt in the market overall. In addition, weak employment and housing reports in the U.S. economic have caused further anxieties, helping spur the Federal Reserve Board and other central banks to loosen monetary policies.
On the international investment scene, we believe these factors will continue to have an influence on markets. We are being very vigilant in assessing the impact of any slowdown on the companies in the portfolio and we are increasingly inclined towards companies that, we believe, have more certain or visible growth prospects.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,104.45 | | 1.13 | % | $ | 5.98 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,019.46 | | 1.13 | | 5.74 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Federated Market Opportunity
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The fiscal year was generally quite strong for major equity markets. In the United States, the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500), for example, returned 14.56%. Despite rapidly spreading cracks in the credit markets, equity markets rebounded late in the fiscal year. In terms of currencies and their impact on investment results for international holdings, the U.S. dollar declined against most currencies, including a 10.40% decline against the U.S. dollar index (“DXY”). This increases the value in U.S. dollar terms of returns on international holdings.
The long, unprecedented credit boom evidently has peaked and is on its way to a credit bust, with consequences that reach far beyond the sub-prime segment of the residential mortgage market. This credit boom was accompanied by massive risk-taking and trend following by market participants, who shunned the notion of capital preservation. This has been based on the widespread belief that “they” (the authorities and heads of the major financial firms) are all-powerful and will not let anything bad happen to markets. It is management’s belief that unprecedented financial leverage, high degrees of speculation and asset prices, and deteriorating economic conditions make sharp market declines probable. This is based on market history, regardless of what “they” may want.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Federated Market Opportunity, Class I returned (1.03)%. By comparison its primary and secondary benchmarks, the Russell 3000 Value Index and the Merrill Lynch 3-Month T-Bill Index, returned 10.06% and 5.13%, respectively. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.93%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio is managed with an emphasis on moderate capital appreciation with low volatility, and an emphasis on capital preservation when valuations and risks are high. It is not managed specifically towards an equity benchmark or with regard to the individual components of an equity benchmark. The portfolio’s strategy is an unconventional one that includes holding substantial cash reserves and using put options to emphasize capital preservation when market risks seem high. This will cause the portfolio’s returns to lag those of market benchmarks and peers during periods of sharply rising stock prices. In addition, the portfolio tends to have substantial non-U.S. investments that are generally not hedged against changes in currency values. Periods of rising values of the U.S. dollar in foreign exchange markets will tend to cause currency losses on the portfolio’s non-U.S. investments as international market prices become worth less when converted into more expensive U.S. dollars. The reverse would cause currency gains for the portfolio’s foreign holdings.
The portfolio has been positioned to benefit from a significant decline in U.S. equity prices. The portfolio had substantial cash reserves in addition to put options as a hedge against an anticipated decline in stock prices. The put options on U.S. equity indexes would increase in value if stock prices fell. Since the market rose over the course of the year, the portfolio had significant net losses on the put options that aggravated the missed profit opportunity from holding cash reserves and short-term government notes instead of holding more in equities. The rationale for the portfolio’s strategy was that market bubble history and market valuation history in general, and rapidly deteriorating economic and financial conditions, supported a highly risk-averse strategy during the period.
Among equity sector returns, gold and energy securities generally had positive returns for the portfolio. On a net basis, securities in other sectors had a modest net loss.
In terms of currency impact on the portfolio, the general decline in the foreign-exchange value of the U.S. dollar had a positive impact on the portfolio. It enhanced the U.S. dollar based returns of the portfolio’s international holdings relative to their local market returns, as international returns were converted into (more) cheaper U.S. dollars. In particular, the Canadian dollar, Japanese Yen, and Swiss Franc had positive returns for the portfolio.
Among the several positive contributors to the portfolio’s performance, the best was Goldcorp Inc., a Canadian gold mining company. The worst contributor was from the put options on the S & P 500. From a country perspective, Canadian stocks were the top contributors to the portfolio.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 998.84 | | 0.95 | % | $ | 4.77 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.36 | | 0.95 | | 4.82 | |
| | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days)
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX JPMorgan International Bond
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
TA IDEX JPMorgan International Bond is primarily invested in three major developed bond markets: Europe, the United Kingdom (“UK”) and Japan.
During the period, the European Central Bank (“ECB”) kept a tightening bias and regularly met market expectations, indicating the timing of rate hikes in advance. The refinancing rate increased from 3.25% to 4.00% by June 2007. The ECB had indicated that another hike to 4.25% should occur in September, however, uncertainties raised by the sub-prime mortgage lending crisis held the ECB from further increases, with the period ending with the rate at 4.00%. Economic data throughout the year indicated strong growth potential in Europe, with business confidence at high levels, and historically high levels of monetary growth. Inflation, as measured by the consumer price index (“CPI”), remained relatively low, but high levels of credit and increases in commodity prices contributed to increased concerns about medium-term inflation risks. Late in the period, fears surrounding U.S. sub-prime lending had a contagion effect in Europe, as uncertainties regarding the banking sector’s exposure led to a sharp increase in liquidity costs. The ECB responded by providing ample amounts of liquidity to money markets.
In the UK, the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Committee (“MPC”) kept a tightening bias until July 2007, increasing rates from 4.75% to end at 5.75% on October 31. Inflation, as measured by the CPI figure, was a major cause of concern for the MPC. The CPI rose to 3.0% in December, with a further increase of 3.1% in March 2007, the highest inflation level since the independence of the Bank of England in 1997. Economic growth remained strong, after accelerating in the fourth quarter of 2006, and the housing market was buoyant for a large part of the year. The increase in borrowing costs in the UK was one of the sharpest in developed markets, which caused problems for some highly cash-dependant financial institutions, such as Northern Rock plc. The Bank of England has resisted reducing rates, instead providing guarantees to the market. However, we now believe there will be a slower pace of growth for the UK economy, and possibly rate cuts in 2008.
In Japan, the Bank of Japan (“BoJ”) continued to renormalize its monetary policy and raised rates from 0.25% to 0.50% in the first quarter of 2007. Japan appeared to emerge from a long deflationary period, with the CPI inflation measure above 0.0% and accelerating economic growth in the fourth quarter of 2006 and the first quarter of 2007. The BoJ was prevented from tightening rates further by upper house elections in July, when the governing party lost ground, initiating a period of political turmoil. Weak personal consumption was a cause of an unexpected decline in gross domestic product (“GDP”) in the second quarter, and BoJ Governor Toshihiko Fukui noted that downside risks to growth were increasing. Consequently, it appeared extremely unlikely that the bank would be able to continue renormalizing its monetary policy in the near term.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX JPMorgan International Bond, Class I returned 8.55%. By comparison its benchmark, the JPMorgan Government Bond Index (GBI) ex-U.S. unhedged Index, returned 9.94%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.61%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Major central banks remained in tightening mode over most of the past year and, consequently, we kept a cautious bias on international bonds, maintaining the duration of the portfolio at a neutral or shorter position compared to its index. Market conditions changed sharply in July and the spreads of all non-government bonds widened significantly. We had implemented a modest exposure to credit in high-quality financial corporates and AAA-rated mortgage debt because we believed the credit cycle to be relatively mature and, historically, financial institutions outperform late in the cycle. The sharp spread widening witnessed during the summer affected all qualities of issues and our position underperformed as a result. During the summer, we implemented a number of short positions in government issues to benefit from the changes in rate expectations, and these positions also performed well. For a large part of the year, yield curve flattening positions were held across markets in the portfolio (Europe and the UK) and contributed to performance. Starting in July, we believed that the increase in uncertainties and volatility would contribute to a steepening of yield curves in many markets. We, therefore, implemented a number of steepening positions to reflect these expectations. Our Europe steepeners suffered from slight underperformance, while our UK steepeners performed well. Currency positions detracted from performance in the period.
Our investment philosophy is to diversify, specialize and implement our portfolios while monitoring and managing risk at all times. Diversification allows us to improve the risk-return profile of the portfolio, as it either generates a higher return for each unit of risk that we take, or allows us to take less risk to achieve an identical level of return. We believe in specialization. Our scale allows us to invest in our own macroeconomic, quantitative and credit research. With any specialized process, the actual implementation of a client’s portfolio is one of the most crucial areas of portfolio management; our goal is to make sure that each client portfolio has the investment insight from the specialist teams. The key point here is that each portfolio is managed by a named portfolio manager, who is fully aware of the client’s guidelines and objectives on the one hand, as well as our strategy insights.

NOTES
(1) The J.P.Morgan Government Bond Index (GBI) ex-U.S. unhedged (JPM Gov’t Bond ex-U.S.) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of the Fund.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund shares are sold without a sales load.
International investing involves special risks including currency fluctuations, political instability, and different financial accounting standards.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,055.97 | | 0.60 | % | $ | 3.10 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,022.12 | | 0.60 | | 3.05 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX JPMorgan Mid Cap Value
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
U.S. equity markets advanced over the period despite lingering concerns over disruptions in the credit markets, the continued decline in the U.S. housing market and energy prices reaching record highs. Many economic releases pointed to continued growth, giving investors hope that the problems originating in the housing and the mortgage sectors may not have yet spilled over into the broader U.S. economy. Investors were also encouraged that inflation data throughout the period remained fairly tame. This allowed the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) to stop short of signaling renewed inflation concerns, giving it the flexibility to cut interest rates if the threats to economic growth increased.
It became apparent that, in order to avoid a major credit crisis, central banks globally needed to take a series of corrective measures by injecting liquidity into the capital markets. On September 18, the Fed lowered the federal funds target rate (“fed funds”) by a larger-than-expected 50 basis points (“bps”) in order to offset the broad economic effects resulting from deteriorating conditions in the credit markets; increased weakness in the housing sector; and sagging consumer confidence. Acting preemptively in an effort to promote economic growth, the Fed delivered an additional rate cut of 25 bps the following month, ending the period at 4.50%.
Over the period, the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index rose by 14.56%, while small-cap stocks, represented by the Russell 2000 Index, underperformed the broader market, returning 9.27% and the Russell Midcap Value Index (“Russell Midcap Value”) returned 9.73%.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX JPMorgan Mid Cap Value, Class I returned 11.12%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value, returned 9.73%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.87%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio outperformed its benchmark for the year ending October 31, 2007. Performance relative to the benchmark was positively affected by stock selection in the financials and consumer discretionary sectors while stock selection in consumer staples and industrials hurt returns.
At the individual stock level, shares of Hilton Hotels Corporation (“Hilton”) surged after The Blackstone Group, Inc. announced plans to acquire the company at a premium in an all-cash transaction. Many lodging companies had recently gone private in similar transactions but, as the largest, Hilton continued to demonstrate strong industry fundamentals in the U.S. and internationally.
Shares of The Williams Companies, Inc. (“Williams”) soared in the period, prompted by the sale of the majority of its power trading business to The Bear Stearns Companies Inc. The sale should reduce both earnings volatility and borrowing costs while allowing the company to focus efforts on its natural gas business. Williams expects to completely exit the power business by the end of the year, with the anticipated sale of its remaining assets.
Alternatively, Old Republic International Corporation’s earnings fell over the year, due partly to a significant decrease in mortgage guaranty operating income, resulting from higher year-over-year claim costs associated with rising residential home delinquencies. Despite the difficult mortgage guaranty environment, the company plans to organically grow its presence in the construction business within its general insurance segment. In addition, the stock has been attractively valued, trading at a modest discount-to-book value.
Another top detractor in the period was The McClatchy Company (“McClatchy”), a large U.S. newspaper company. The company experienced declining advertising revenues in part due to declining real estate and classified advertisements. Despite industry headwinds, McClatchy has been a strong operator of newspapers in mid-sized markets, offering above-average growth prospects. Its recent acquisition of Knight-Ridder, Inc. also sets up the possibility of better-than expected growth from cost synergies.
The dedicated investment philosophy of JPMorgan Mid Cap Value is based on the premise that stock selection, focused on undervalued mid-cap companies with durable franchises that are led by strong management teams, should generate consistent returns over the long term. We employ a bottom-up approach to stock selection, constructing portfolios based on company fundamentals, quantitative screening and proprietary fundamental analysis. Our aim is to identify undervalued companies that have the potential to grow their intrinsic values per share and to purchase these companies at a discount.
We have maintained our focus throughout the period by continuing to invest in undervalued mid-cap companies that are durable franchises, possessing both stability and predictability in earnings and cash flow. These characteristics are often sought after as high-quality companies tend to hold their value and attract greater capital flows when markets turn more volatile. Despite different investment styles/themes coming in and going out of favor, we have not wavered in what is important to us and continue to implement the same disciplined process.

NOTES
(1) The Russell Midcap Value (Russell Midcap Value) index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of the Fund.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund shares are sold without a sales load.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend
expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | 1,000.00 | | 1,008.18 | | 0.87 | | 4.39 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.76 | | 0.87 | | 4.42 | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Loomis Sayles Bond
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
After a sustained period of strong growth, the bond market vacillated between risk appetite and aversion in 2007. Blooming concerns over housing weakness and softening consumer and business spending mixed with an immense supply of Leveraged Buyout (“LBO”)-related debt and yield hungry investors. By the summer, the weight of the sub-prime mortgage debacle and fears that lax lending practices might spread to other credit areas culminated in a sharp reappraisal of risk amid a credit crunch, followed by aggressive action by the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”). After holding rates steady for several quarters, the Fed cut its benchmark rate by 0.50% in September and by 0.25% in October in a bid to help keep the economy on course. Overseas, global markets continued to thrive, aided in part by currency gains relative to the US dollar.
PERFORMANCE
For the period from inception, December 27, 2007 to October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Loomis Sayles Bond, Class I returned 4.50%. By comparison its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers U.S. Government Credit/Bond Index, returned 4.82%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.73%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio incorporates a multi-sector strategy with the flexibility of using a variety of sectors within fixed income, including governments, investment grade credit, high yield and non-dollar. Security selection, rather than sector allocation, drove performance in this environment. When the US yield curve steepened late in the period, our longer duration strategy relative to its benchmark also contributed favorably to the portfolio’s outperformance. Non-US-dollar holdings, which are not represented in the benchmark, were consistently among the leading drivers of returns as the global economy continued to chug along. Bonds denominated in the currencies of Canada and Brazil were strongest thanks to continued economic growth in those countries. From a quality perspective, the portfolio remained positioned to capitalize on the shift in credit trends. High yield securities comprised just over 20% of the portfolio and these securities maintained a performance edge at the beginning of the year. By third quarter 2007, the higher rated portion of the portfolio took the lead – domestic and non-US dollar government securities and investment grade corporate credit comprised 70% of the portfolio’s market value as of October 31. Still, extreme market weakness in the third quarter reduced the favorable impact of the allocation to higher quality buckets.
Individual holdings with the greatest positive impact included Canadian and Brazilian sovereign bonds, a long maturity US Treasury bond, Columbia/HCA healthcare after its leveraged buyout, and short-dated Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“Freddie Mac”) debt. Individual holdings with the greatest negative contribution to total return included Nektar Therapeutics convertible debt, the homebuilder K. Hovnanian Enterprises, Inc., information technology concern Level 3 Communications, Inc., LBO-target Tribune Company, and mortgage lender Countrywide Financial Corporation. Investment grade credit US dollar denominated corporates contributed positively to performance, while high yield was a drag on absolute and relative performance. Non-US dollar denominated securities, primarily higher quality corporates or foreign government bonds, were the most significant positive drivers of performance. Convertibles, agencies and emerging market debt were neutral.

NOTES
(1) The Lehman Brother Government/Credit Bond (LBGC) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of the Fund.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund shares are sold without a sales load. International investing involves special risks including currency fluctuations, political instability, and different financial accounting standards. This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this fund.
This fund is only available in Class I shares, which are not available for direct investment by the public.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,020.61 | | 0.71 | % | $ | 3.61 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,021.57 | | 0.71 | | 3.61 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Marsico International Growth
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
International equity performance in developed markets was solid during the fiscal year ending October 31, 2007. The portfolio’s benchmark, Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index (“MSCI-EAFE”), posted a return of 25.43% for the reporting period.
Within the EAFE Index, economic sector strength was widespread. All ten Global Industry Classification Standards Classifications (“GICS”) sectors in the MSCI-EAFE posted gains, led by materials, telecommunication services, industrials, and utilities. At an industry level, results were also strong. All but one industry group had a positive return. The top-performing areas included software and services, capital goods, food beverage and tobacco, and automobiles and components.
Currency fluctuations were quite significant throughout the fiscal year. For the reporting period as a whole, the dollar weakened, as demonstrated by the MSCI-EAFE’s total twelve-month return of (US$) 25.43% and comparing it to the MSCI-EAFE “local” return of 14.47%.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Marsico International Growth, Class I returned 38.11%. By comparison its benchmark, the MSCI-EAFE, returned 25.43%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 1.13%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
During the reporting period, the portfolio’s average sector allocations emphasized the consumer discretionary and financials sectors. The portfolio invested in every GICS economic sector during the twelve-month period, with the utilities and energy sectors averaging an underweighted posture relative to the portfolio’s benchmark, the MSCI- EAFE.
The portfolio outperformed the MSCI-EAFE for the period. The areas of investment that was the largest positive contributor to the portfolio’s twelve-month performance were the financials and energy sectors. Positions in Brazilian bank Unibanco-Uniao De Bancos Brasileiros S/A (US$ +106%), India-headquartered ICICI Bank Limited (US$ +98%), China’s Industrial and Commercial Bank of China (US$ +17% prior to being sold), and diversified financials companies Macquarie Bank Limited (US$ +40%) and Man Group plc (US$ +33%), were among the portfolio’s largest positive individual contributors in the period. The portfolio also benefited by maintaining an underweighted posture, on average, in the financials sector. Energy holdings CNOOC Limited (US$ +141%) and PETROLEO BRASILEIRO S.A. - PETROBRAS (US$ +71%) were strong performers, and an underweighted posture in the sector also aided performance. In addition, telecommunication services companies China Mobile Limited (US$ +149%) and America Movil, S.A. de C.V. (US$ +53%) were among the top individual contributors to performance for the period.
Although active currency management is not a central facet of the portfolio’s investment process, currency fluctuations may at times affect the portfolio’s performance positively or negatively. For the one-year fiscal period, currency fluctuations had a material adverse affect on performance results. On average, the portfolio had more exposure to securities economically tied to the US than did the MSCI-EAFE during the fiscal year. This positioning presented a currency “cost” to the portfolio, as the US dollar weakened in the quarter relative to many other world currencies such as the euro. The portfolio generally had less exposure to companies whose securities are priced in euros and traded in countries that utilize the euro; therefore a smaller portion of the portfolio, compared with its benchmark index, benefited from the euro’s valuation increase.
Several of the portfolio’s Japanese positions negatively impacted performance. Chugai Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. (“Chugai”) (US$ -27% prior to being sold), finance company Mitsui Trust Holdings, Inc. (US$ -32%) and amusement game manufacturer Sega Sammy Holdings Inc. (“Sega Sammy”) (US$ -11% prior to being sold) were among the portfolio’s weakest-performing individual positions (Chugai and Sega Sammy were sold prior to October 31, 2007).
The portfolio’s largest country-level allocations were in Switzerland, Japan, United Kingdom and France. Country allocation, on balance, contributed positively to the portfolio’s investment results. That was primarily due to the fact that the portfolio had investments in several countries — including Canada, Brazil, and India — that performed well. That said, we should note that country weightings typically are a residual of the portfolio’s bottom-up stock selection process.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,216.47 | | 1.13 | % | $ | 6.30 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,019.46 | | 1.13 | | 5.74 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Through October, U.S. markets had positive returns in all capitalization ranges, despite concerns about the sub-prime mortgage collapse, rising energy prices, and declining consumer confidence. Continued momentum in the markets was primarily driven by the Federal Reserve Board easing rates over the period; and a sense that even if double-digit corporate earnings increases would fall off a bit, overall earnings would hold up due to growth outside the U.S. combined with a tailwind from the falling dollar helping U.S. exports.
Growth is ahead of value by most metrics, as year to date, January through October, the Russell 1000 Growth Index is up 16.51%, versus the Russell 1000 Value index return of 5.98%. At the same time, large cap indexes have outperformed small cap this year as the Russell 1000 Index returned 11.21% through October, versus the small cap Russell 2000 Index return of 6.12%.
PERFORMANCE
For the period from inception December 27, 2006 through October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy, Class I returned (2.20)%. By comparison its benchmark, the Merrill Lynch 3-Month T-Bill +3 Index, returned 6.82%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 3.05%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The Franklin Portfolio Associates’ Market Neutral strategy is a long/short stock selection strategy based on our quantitative implementation of fundamental and technical valuation concepts. Our daily investment process combines approximately 45 factors, or characteristics, including value-based metrics (based on income statement, balance sheet, and future value characteristics), growth/momentum metrics (based on earnings momentum, longer term growth and sustainability, and technical price action characteristics), and factors based on corporate and management stock buying/selling activity. We blend these measures into a single composite rank for each stock using a dynamic weighting scheme that reflects the overall success, consistency, and independence of each factor; and keeping a balanced overall weighting between value and growth/momentum based factors. Then we construct long and short portfolios that are carefully controlled along several dimensions of risk. These include the requirement that the net of the long and short portfolios always be near neutral in terms of beta, sector/industry exposure, and capitalization, among other risk factors. Subject to these risk constraints, the target portfolio consists of long positions in the most attractive stocks and short positions in the least attractive stocks, with controlled tilts toward the more attractive portfolio-level characteristics.
The portfolio underperformed its benchmark from inception through October 31, 2007. Underperformance was attributable mainly to stock selection. Specifically, the market has failed to reward the value-based components of our stock ranking model so far this year. Each of the three primary groups of value factors noted above (income statement, balance sheet, and future value characteristics) detracted significantly from performance. While growth/momentum factors in the model generally added value, these were not sufficient to generate overall positive returns.
We do not make tactical changes in the implementation of the strategy based on market conditions, and continued to maintain an even blend of value and growth/momentum factors despite the recent underperformance of the value components of the process. We do monitor and control risk exposures that develop in the market. For example, during this period we did carefully control our exposure to companies impacted by the sub-prime crisis and residential construction collapse, so these events did not contribute to the sub-par performance. Also, by maintaining our standard process in August, we were able to produce slight out-performance despite the liquidity problems experienced by some quantitative strategies in the month.
The most successful stock selections among long holdings were computer and music player maker Apple Inc., insurer Ohio Casualty Corporation (which was acquired by Liberty Mutual Holding Company Inc. during the period), and mining company Massey Energy Company. On the short side, the strongest stock selections were clothing retailer Coldwater Creek Inc., Starbucks Corporation, and mortgage insurer MGIC Investment Corporation.
Holdings including managed health care provider WellCare Health Plans, Inc., pharmaceutical maker Forest Laboratories, and storage technology firm Network Appliance Inc. were the most significant long detractors to stock selection performance. Short holdings which detracted most from stock selection performance were engineering and construction services provider The Shaw Group Inc., packaging manufacturer Owens-Illinois, Inc., and fertilizer maker The Mosaic Company.
Our investment process seeks to minimize the impact of sector/industry weightings on the performance of the portfolio by maintaining approximately equal weightings of long and short positions in each sector and industry. Nevertheless, slight net long and short sector/industry positions, such as our net long position in the industrials sector, did have an overall positive impact on performance.

NOTES
(1) The Merrill Lynch 3 Month Treasury Bill (ML 3) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of the Fund.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions nor the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund shares are sold without a sales load.
This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this fund.
This fund is only available in Class I shares, which are not available for direct investment by the public.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 969.28 | | 2.75 | % | $ | 13.65 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,017.95 | | 2.75 | | 13.99 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Neuberger Berman International
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
International stocks as measured by the Morgan Stanley Capital International-EAFE Index (“MSCI-EAFE”) continued to outpace the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index over the last twelve months. In a shift from previous years, international small cap stocks under performed larger capitalization companies. This became especially pronounced in the third quarter of 2007, when credit market disruptions caused many investors to seek safety in size. The portfolio performed well, but fell short of matching the return from its MSCI-EAFE benchmark, partially due to the all-cap nature of the portfolio and the relative overweight of mid and small cap names.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Neuberger Berman International, Class I returned 22.37%. By comparison, its benchmark, the MSCI-EAFE, returned 25.43%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 1.06%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Our goal has remained identifying quality companies trading at a reasonable price. Our investments must pass liquidity screens and quality controls (market cap, daily turnover, return of investment capital, earnings per share growth, leverage profile) before we will consider investing in a company. If a candidate meets the criteria, we then assess the company from a strategic framework and develop discounted cash flow models to determine the company’s fundamental value. We view ourselves as investors in businesses rather than buyers and sellers of stock, and we have a three-year investment horizon. Through the third quarter market turmoil, we have maintained our philosophy and process.
Strong stock selection in the energy sector led by Canadian exploration and production company, Addax Petroleum Corp. (“Addax”), more than doubled the return of MSCI-EAFE’s energy component. Brazilian mining company Companhia Vale Do Rio Doce, one of the world’s low cost producers of high-quality iron ore, led materials sector investments, which also produced strong absolute and relative returns. Although the portfolio was underweight in health care, the investments, outperformed the benchmark sector, and contributed to relative and absolute returns.
Our consumer discretionary sector investments trailed the MSCI-EAFE peer group, with British homebuilders Barrat Developments and Redrow plc significantly underperforming. Japanese pachinko machine manufacturer Daiichi Sankyo Company, Limited, and used car auctioneer Gulliver both also contributed to the underperformance.
The portfolio also underperformed in the industrials sector due largely to a substantial decline in Japanese employment firms Pasona Sourcing Inc. and Fullcast Co. Ltd., as well as, pachinko card reading machine manufacturer Mars Engineering Corporation.
Results from holdings in non-MSCI-EAFE countries were mixed. Investments in Argentina, Brazil, and Canada produced well above market average returns, led by energy companies Tenaris S.A., PETROLEO BRASILEIRO S.A.- PETROBRAS, and Addax. Investments in Korea underperformed the benchmark especially telecommunications companies, KT Corporation and SK Telecom Co., Ltd.
The United Kingdom (“UK”) and Hong Kong were the worst performing countries in the portfolio on a relative basis. In the case of the UK homebuilders and financials, particularly mortgage lenders Kensington Group plc and Northern Rock plc, both of which have been eliminated from the portfolio, dragged down performance. In Hong Kong, flat panel monitor assembler, TPV Technology Limited, declined in the face of new aggressive competition.
The portfolio continues to have significant over-weights in the energy sector. We continue to use a long-term price of oil of $50 per barrel in our valuation models.

NOTES
(1) The Morgan Stanley Capital International-Europe, Australasia, and Far East (MSCI-EAFE) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of the Fund.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund shares are sold without a sales load.
International investing involves special risks including currency fluctuations, political instability, and different financial accounting standards.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,057.77 | | 1.06 | % | $ | 5.48 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,019.81 | | 1.06 | | 5.38 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Oppenheimer Developing Markets
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Emerging markets chalked up yet another period of exceptional returns during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007. These returns were framed against a backdrop of strong global growth, supportive of healthy earnings expansion, and a low cost of capital globally. The portfolio performed strongly on an absolute basis during the reporting period; however, it underperformed that of the benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International Emerging Markets Index (“MSCI-EMI”).
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Oppenheimer Developing Markets, Class I returned 55.27%. By comparison, its benchmark, the MSCI-EMI, returned 68.33%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 1.34%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Broad macroeconomic forces influencing portfolio performance during the year included robust economic growth in emerging markets, generally low interest rates and sustained high commodity prices. The commodity boom persisted alongside high levels of global expansion. A demand shock from the emerging markets (most notably China) over the past five years coupled with supply inelasticity in the short term for energy (oil and gas) and industrial metals had sent commodity prices surging, widely ahead of marginal production costs. The strong revenue, tax and cash flow gains associated with high commodity prices had an obvious beneficial impact on the resource-blessed geographies of the developing world. Brazil and South Africa, among the larger economies, have been very large beneficiaries. By contrast, resource poor economies, such as Turkey and Taiwan, have suffered somewhat.
Growth ranged from good to spectacular across the developing world during the period. The most visible growth remained in the two largest economies, China and India, which both saw strong expansion in nominal gross domestic product (“GDP”). Brazil and Indonesia were two other large economies which observed a growth stimulus from declining nominal (and more importantly real) interest rates. Globalization, restructuring and concomitant productivity gains and capital deepening remained significant forces of growth in the developing world during the period.
Two broad themes dominated our best performing shares during the period - commodity stocks and India. PETROLEO BRASILEIRO SA-PETROBRAS the leading global offshore oil company was one of the largest contributors to portfolio performance during the period. During the year significant new finds in both oil and gas drove the stock up. PT Aneka Tambang (Persero) Tbk, the Indonesian nickel giant, and CVRD Inco Limited, the Brazilian iron ore miner, were also among the largest contributors to portfolio performance during the period. The portfolio’s Indian holdings continued to chalk up impressive performance. Larsen & Toubro Limited, the engineering and construction major, and Bharti Airtel Limited, the mobile operator, were among the best performing stocks during the fiscal year.
Gold stocks, broadly, were an area of disappointing returns. Although gold bullion traded higher through the year, many of the gold mining companies faired poorly as they struggled with labor negotiations, rising equipment costs and mining accidents. Highland Gold Mining Limited and Polymetal, GDR were each drags on performance.

The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund shares are sold without a sales load.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,306.04 | | 1.36 | % | $ | 7.90 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,018.28 | | 1.36 | | 6.92 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Oppenheimer Small- & Mid - Cap Value
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
TA IDEX Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Value outperformed its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value Index (“Russell 2500 Value”) for the annual reporting period. We attribute a majority of the portfolio’s outperformance to the success of our research driven, bottom-up stock selection process, which produced especially attractive results in the industrials, materials and information technology (“IT”) sectors. In addition, the portfolio also benefited from our shift toward mid-cap stocks, which outperformed small-cap securities over the period. Conversely, the financials sector detracted from performance.
The U.S. stock market continued to expand during the period, accompanied by solid corporate earnings, stable inflation and an active merger and acquisition environment. Bolstered by the economy’s strength, the market continued its steady rise through the end of February. At that point, the market environment quickly changed due to a confluence of negative events, which included new concerns over a slowdown in the economy and a brief but sharp stock market sell-off in China. By the start of the second quarter, the stock market had resumed its upward momentum, buoyed by strong economic growth, tame inflation and high levels of liquidity. However, market volatility increased by mid-summer, as turmoil in the debt markets sent stock prices down. Against this backdrop, the Federal Reserve Board moved aggressively to stop the spreading credit crunch from sinking the economy by cutting its target for the federal funds rate. The markets, in response, rebounded despite persistent inflation concerns. Market performance continued on a relatively positive course through the end of the reporting period; however, economic data remained mixed and commodity prices continued to rise.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Oppenheimer Small- & Mid-Cap Value, Class I returned 22.57%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Value, returned 4.63%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 1.03%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Over the past year, we have seen a shift in valuations between small and mid-cap stocks, with mid-caps becoming more attractively valued. Given this, we increased the portfolio’s market capitalization weighting, a decision that helped performance as mid-caps outperformed small-caps stocks.
The portfolio’s best relative gains were achieved by holdings within the industrials, materials and IT sectors. Within the industrials sector, a top contributor included Foster Wheeler Ltd., an international engineering, construction and energy specialist that benefited as many energy companies continued to heavily invest in new infrastructure projects. In the materials sector, the portfolio’s holding in The Mosaic Company (“Mosaic”) added to performance. Mosaic, a producer of fertilizer, advanced on higher demand and better prices for its products, which enabled the company to increase prices. We eventually sold the portfolio’s position in Mosaic and took profits. Within the IT sector, a top-performer included Juniper Networks, Inc. (“Juniper”). Juniper, a provider of infrastructure and routers for internet service providers and telephone companies, posted strong results due to a highly successful new product cycle. We also exited this position and took profits.
The portfolio’s performance was slightly hindered by holdings in the financials sector. Within financials, a significant detractor included investments in online trading company, E*TRADE Financial Corporation (“E*TRADE”). Although the portfolio maintained an underweight position in the sub-prime mortgage area, it did have exposure through E*TRADE. Over the past few years, E*TRADE sought to diversify its business model and entered the mortgage market. However, this move hurt the company as it was negatively affected by credit concerns stemming from the sub-prime lending market.
As always, we will follow our research driven, bottom-up stock selection process in our pursuit of finding what, we believe, are good investment opportunities within the small- and mid-cap value universe. Accordingly, we will continue to search for companies across all market sectors that, in our view, offer strong earnings growth prospects, accomplished management teams and are trading at attractive valuations. We remain confident that our investment process is working to the benefit of our shareholders and believe it will continue to yield strong results over the long term.

Average Annual Total Return for Periods Ended 10/31/2007
| | 1 Year | | From Inception | | Inception Date | |
Class I (NAV) | | 22.57 | % | 26.40 | % | 8/1/06 | |
Russell 2500 Value (1) | | 4.63 | % | 10.72 | % | 8/1/06 | |
NOTES
(1) The Russell 2500 Value (Russell 2500 Value) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of Class I shares.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains but do not reflect any sales charges.
Investing in small cap stocks generally involves greater risk and volatility, therefore an investment in the fund may not be appropriate for everyone.
This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this Fund.
The fund is only available in Class I shares, which are not available for direct investment by the public.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning Account Value | | Ending Account Value | | Annualized Expense Ratio | | Expenses Paid During Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,043.55 | | 1.00 | % | $ | 5.14 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.11 | | 1.00 | | 5.08 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Third Avenue Value
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
During the summer, the market in the U.S. in particular, experienced a real credit crisis, which has been most severe for those companies that require access to the capital markets on a regular basis. While the portfolio was negatively impacted by these events, we emphasize that these are not the types of companies in which TA IDEX Third Avenue Value invests. Throughout our management firm’s more than two decades of existence, we have experienced several bear markets, yet the macro market environment has never influenced our investment process. We are long-term investors focused on well-capitalized companies, with strong management teams, trading at discounts to readily ascertainable net asset values.
PERFORMANCE
For the period from inception May 1, 2007 through October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Third Avenue Value, Class I returned 3.29%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 3000 Value Index, returned 0.53%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.86%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
How did you manage the portfolio in this market environment?
While we are benchmark agnostic, bottom-up focused investors, we have been pleased with the portfolio’s strong outperformance for the period. Note that our strategy does not change, regardless of general macro conditions. We do not manage portfolios in response to near-term market conditions. We remain opportunistic, focusing on attractively priced issues of companies with robust balance sheets and strong management teams.
We remain pleased with the overall quality of the portfolio, and are encouraged by the solid business fundamentals of our holdings.
Which individual holdings had the greatest positive impact on performance?
Korean steel maker POSCO was the portfolio’s top contributor for the period, as it was positively impacted by strong steel prices and a favorable global demand environment. This was followed by the Canadian exploration and production company, Encana Corporation (which has benefited from an attractive resource base and a disciplined approach, despite ongoing volatility in the energy market) and Cheung Kong (Holdings) Limited. The latter is a diversified holding company in Hong Kong, which was positively influenced by a favorable market environment in Hong Kong, particularly in the real estate arena.
Which individual holdings had the greatest negative impact on performance?
On the downside, the portfolio was negatively impacted by MBIA Inc., Radian Asset Assurance Inc. and Ambac Financial Group, Inc., all of which have seen deterioration amid the recent credit crunch and mortgage upheaval in the U.S. Despite these macro headwinds, we believe our holdings remain well-capitalized and well-managed with valuations that have become even more compelling.
Which sectors/industries had the greatest impact on performance?
On the positive side, it has been materials (steel in particular), energy and select real estate, that contributed to the portfolio’s performance, while on the downside, it has been the financial sector which has created the most notable drag to performance.
Which countries had the greatest impact on performance?
On the positive side, the Asia region (Korea and Hong Kong) and Canada had the most beneficial impact. On the downside, the U.S. market detracted from performance.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning Account Value | | Ending Account Value | | Annualized Expense Ratio | | Expenses Paid During Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,032.86 | | 0.86 | % | $ | 4.39 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.81 | | 0.86 | | 4.37 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Transamerica Short-Term Bond
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The twelve months ended October 31, 2007, and in particular the last three months, was a volatile period for U.S. bond markets as hopes of a Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) interest-rate cut alternately grew, faded and rose again over the course of the year.
Initially, bond markets responded positively to signs that the housing market and economy were slowing. By spring, unexpected vigor in the economy, as evidenced by strong consumer spending in the face of high gas prices and weaker home prices, caused the market to retreat. Market volatility then intensified when news of growing defaults in higher-yielding (sub-prime) mortgages spread at the same time that banks needed to remove from their balance sheets (i.e., sell) a large number of leveraged-buyout loans. Major banks and others had invested in pools of the sub-prime mortgages, in many cases using those investments as collateral for their own debt securities. Suddenly concerned about how much sub-prime exposure borrowers were carrying in their portfolios, lenders and bond investors tightened credit standards and demanded higher yields on non-Treasury debt. Wary buyers withdrew support from the markets. The sub-prime debacle escalated, liquidity diminished, and the differences between yields on Treasuries and other fixed-income securities (i.e., credit spreads) widened until the Fed intervened.
Throughout the period, inflation was a key concern for the Fed. However, with housing continuing to slide and the economy and employment growth showing signs of slowing, during August to October, the Fed lowered the discount and federal funds rates by 1.25% and 0.75%, respectively, to restore confidence and bolster the economy.
Against this backdrop, U.S. Treasury yields declined, especially for the shortest-term securities, and the yield curve steepened. Treasuries outperformed other sectors (corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities). The Merrill Lynch U.S. Corporate & Government 1-3 Year Index (“MLCG”) generated a twelve-month total return of 5.67%.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Short-Term Bond, Class I returned 4.45%. By comparison its benchmark, the MLCG, returned 5.67%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.67%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Throughout the period, the portfolio generated strong yields, due to an overweighting in corporate securities and carefully defined investments in mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”). The portfolio had no sub-prime exposure and invested only in high-quality MBS guaranteed by agencies of the federal government.
Later, we anticipated the general turmoil in non-government bonds and reduced the overweighting in corporate bonds. We also underweighted the homebuilding and financial industries while overweighting high-quality industrial bonds. Nonetheless, the portfolio lagged its index during the heightened turmoil, as short-term credit spreads widened and investors favored Treasuries over non-government bonds. We used this opportunity to purchase bonds in the more stable industrial, utilities and real estate investment trust (“REIT”) industries.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning Account Value | | Ending Account Value | | Annualized Expense Ratio | | Expenses Paid During Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,016.80 | | 0.67 | % | $ | 3.40 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,021.77 | | 0.67 | | 3.40 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
During the reporting period, global economic activity continued its steady expansion of the past few years. After a very modest expansion in the first quarter of 2007, the US economy recovered during the second quarter, with gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth of 3.8%. However, the housing sector, mortgage market and credit market conditions remain threats to US economic activity, and most economists expect US growth to slow in upcoming quarters. Outside the US, GDP growth continues to be particularly strong in China, India and other emerging markets. Economists believe the Eurozone economy will moderate in the near term, although out-gain the US for the full year 2007. Japan’s economy has slowed significantly, posting a negative growth rate in the second quarter.
The problems in the US mortgage market, together with signs of general credit tightening, has led to a shift toward neutrality or even easing in many central banks’ policies. The Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) cut the federal funds 50 basis points in September. (The federal funds rate, or “fed funds” rate, is the rate that banks charge one another for funds they borrow on an overnight basis.) This was the first reduction in the fed funds rate since June 2003. The Fed lowered rates another 25 basis points in October, bringing the fed funds rate to 4.50%. The European Central Bank (“ECB”) began a tightening cycle in 2006, and hiked rates 25 basis points at both its March and June 2007 meetings. Since that time it has held rates steady. The Bank of Japan has begun tightening from its zero interest rate policy. However, the scope and pace of tightening remain to be seen, given more tepid economic growth in Japan. Consensus expectations for 2007 indicate trend-like growth rates on a global basis.
PERFORMANCE
For the period from inception December 27, 2006 through October 31, 2007, TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha, Class I returned (1.70)%. By comparison its benchmark, the Consumer Price Index + 5%, returned 7.91%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 1.51%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio focuses on real (after inflation) returns in an effort to maintain purchasing power and manage risk. It seeks to achieve its goal and reduce volatility through the dynamic management of three uncorrelated sources: active global asset allocation; opportunistic security selection; and currency management. The manager has the flexibility to adjust its exposure to alpha (active risk or security selection) and beta (market and currency risk) independently from each other to capitalize on changing market conditions, using derivatives. The manger employs a proprietary risk management system to help ensure the portfolio is compensated for the level of risk it assumes at both the security and market levels.
During the reporting period, the portfolio’s global asset allocation was a positive contributor to performance, while its currency allocation and security selection detracted from results.
In terms of key market exposures, the portfolio benefited the most from its positions in emerging market equities, US equities and, to a lesser extent, United Kingdom (“UK”) equities. In contrast, the portfolio’s short exposure to equities in several markets, including Germany, Australia and Canada, as well as a short position in real return bonds, detracted from results.
From a currency perspective, the portfolio’s euro, Canadian dollar, UK pound sterling and Australian dollar positions detracted from results during the reporting period.
As discussed, security selection was an overall negative contributor to performance over the reporting period. More specifically, the portfolio’s global (ex-US), UK equity, and US equity security selection detracted from results. This more than offset the positive performance generated by the portfolio’s security selection within the US large-cap growth equity asset class.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.

Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,017.50 | | 1.52 | | 7.71 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX UBS Large Cap Value
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Despite periods of market volatility, the fiscal year ended October 31, 2007 was a rewarding one for large-cap value investors. During that period, the Russell 1000 Value Index (“Russell 1000 Value”) gained 10.83%. Strong stock selection helped the portfolio outperform the Russell 1000 Value during the fiscal year.
After a slow start, the US economy appeared to strengthen during the twelve-month reporting period. First quarter 2007 US gross domestic product (“GDP”) came in at only 0.6%—the slowest growth rate in the US since the fourth quarter of 2002. The stumble was attributed to a variety of factors, including ongoing troubles in the housing market and tepid business spending. The economy then picked up steam in the second quarter—GDP posted a solid 3.8% growth rate—boosted by improving manufacturing activity. To date, the Commerce Department is reporting an advance estimate for third quarter GDP growth of 6.9%. Despite the weak housing market, issues related to sub-prime mortgages and tighter credit conditions, strong consumer spending and an increase in exports is continuing to support the economy.
US equities generally posted positive returns during the first half of the fiscal year. Over this time, the market was helped by strong corporate profits, an active merger and acquisition (“M&A”) environment and hopes that the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) would lower short-term interest rates. The market then weakened significantly in June and July 2007. Ongoing weakness in the housing market, rising sub-prime mortgage defaults and a severe credit crunch caused the Standard and Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Index (“S&P 500”) to fall nearly 5%. Stock prices rebounded in late August 2007, as expectations shifted that the Fed would lower interest rates. The Fed, in fact, did so in September and October, and the market continued to climb upward. (The federal funds rate, or “fed funds” rate, is the rate that banks charge one another for funds they borrow on an overnight basis.).
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX UBS Large Cap Value, Class I returned 12.48%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value, returned 10.83%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.81%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
The portfolio seeks to maximize total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. To pursue this objective, the portfolio invests in the stocks of US large capitalization companies, which we define as those with a market capitalization of at least $3 billion. As the portfolio’s advisor, we generally focus on identifying what we believe are discrepancies between a security’s fundamental value and its market price when selecting securities for the portfolio. We base our estimates of a security’s fundamental value on economic, industry and company analysis, as well as on a company’s management team, competitive advantage and core competencies. Through this process, we aim to construct a portfolio with attractive relative price/value characteristics.
Strong stock selection drove the portfolio’s outperformance during the fiscal year. In terms of individual stocks, Medco Health Solutions, Inc., Costco Wholesale Corporation, Mellon Financial Corporation, Johnson Controls, Inc. and Merck & Co., Inc. were the greatest contributors to portfolio performance. On the downside, Sprint Nextel Corporation, Symantec Corporation, Omnicom Group Inc. and Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corporation were the largest detractor’s from performance.
In terms of industry exposures, the portfolio’s leading contributors to performance were its overweight positions in the motor vehicle and parts, oil services and the electric utility industries. In contrast, its underweight in energy reserves and oil refining stocks, as well as an overweight in banks, detracted from results.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,025.27 | | 0.81 | % | $ | 4.12 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,021.06 | | 0.81 | | 4.12 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Van Kampen Emerging Markets Debt
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
During the twelve-month period ending October 31, 2007, emerging markets debt as measured by the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index (“EMBI Global”) returned 8.05%. Spreads on U.S. dollar-denominated external debt ended the twelve-month period in very close proximity to their starting point. The average spread of emerging markets bonds ended the period at +201 basis points above U.S. Treasury bonds. Interest rates on short-dated U.S. Treasury bonds declined substantially during the year ended October 31, 2007, as the Federal Reserve Board cut interest rates in the wake of a deceleration in U.S. economic activity and mortgage credit concerns during the summer of 2007.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Van Kampen Emerging Markets Debt, Class I returned 9.94%. By comparison its benchmark, the EMBI Global, returned 8.05%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 1.03%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Most emerging market local currency assets outperformed external debt handily during the period. The portfolio benefited specifically from domestic debt and currency exposure to Turkey, Brazil, and Mexico, which added significantly to performance relative to the EMBI Global during the one-year period ending October 31, 2007. In Turkey, disinflation, robust foreign direct investment flows, orderly democratic elections, and prudent fiscal and monetary management were key themes during the period. The Turkish lira gained 20% versus the U.S. dollar. In Brazil, continued reserve accumulation, a strong trade balance, and attractive real interest rates helped spur the currency by 19%. During the period, Moody’s and Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) upgraded the country’s long-term external debt credit rating to Ba1 and BB+, respectively. In Mexico, local and external debt assets were buoyed by the passing of tax and pension reform, continued retirement of external debt, and the market’s increasing confidence in the central bank’s ability and conviction to combat inflation. S&P upgraded the country’s long-term external debt rating to BBB+ during the one-year period.
Within the portfolio’s external debt exposure, a consistent overweight in the Philippines aided relative returns on the back of ongoing fiscal improvements and a declining trade deficit. In Venezuela, an aggregate underweight and security selection – particularly an overweight in the midsection of the yield curve – aided relative returns amid a sell-off in external debt. Supply concerns, nationalization of oil assets, and President Chavez’s continued anti-West rhetoric overwhelmed the positive impact of higher oil prices. In Indonesia, the portfolio’s exposure to corporate debt, which underperformed sovereign assets, detracted from relative returns. Indonesia’s external debt credit rating was upgraded to Ba3 by Moody’s during the period.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,033.71 | | 1.01 | % | $ | 5.16 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.06 | | 1.01 | | 5.13 | |
| | | | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

TA IDEX Van Kampen Mid-Cap Growth
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
The twelve-month period ended October 31, 2007 began on a high note. Overall, stocks rallied strongly though year end 2006, as the Federal Reserve Board (“Fed”) continued to leave the target federal funds rate (“fed funds rate”) unchanged, inflation remained under control, consumer spending was decent, and the pace of merger and acquisition and private equity activities fueled optimistic investor sentiment. However, within the first few months of 2007, the burgeoning crisis in the sub-prime mortgage market (i.e., loans made to riskier, less credit worthy consumers) disrupted stocks’ climb. By summer, the still rising levels of loan defaults and home foreclosures led to a full collapse of the sub-prime mortgage market, causing the bankruptcies of a number mortgage lenders and several hedge funds invested in sub-prime mortgage-backed securities. Credit began tightening across the board, removing much of the low-cost liquidity that had helped support the leveraged buyout boom and stocks’ robust gains for the past several years. In addition, consumers became more cautious on spending, as gasoline prices increased and the housing market continued to languish. The market in July and August was highly volatile, as investors began to reassess risk and rotated into areas of the market they believed to be “safe havens.” Beginning in mid-August, the Fed lowered both the discount rate (the rate at which member banks borrow from the central bank) and the fed funds rate in a series of adjustments that helped stabilize the markets and injected much-needed liquidity into the financial system. Although stocks did turn upward in September and October, investors found little solace in September’s weak economic data reports, the multi-billion dollar losses expected at the largest financial companies, and anticipated further market volatility in the weeks ahead.
PERFORMANCE
For the year ended October 31, 2007, TA IDEX Van Kampen Mid-Cap Growth, Class I returned 37.32%. By comparison its benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index (“Russell Midcap Growth”), returned 19.72%. For the year ended October 31, 2007, the net expense ratio of the Fund was 0.90%.
STRATEGY REVIEW
Throughout the reporting period, we used our intensive fundamental research process to seek high-quality growth companies. Our investment discipline favors companies that have high barriers to entry, business visibility, rising return on invested capital, free cash flow and a favorable risk/reward profile. Our emphasis is on secular growth, and as a result, short-term market events are not as meaningful in the stock selection process.
As of the end of the reporting period, consumer discretionary represented the largest weight and sector overweight relative to the Russell Midcap Growth. Financial services and health care were the next largest absolute weights in the portfolio, although both sectors were underweight relative to the Russell Midcap Growth.
The portfolio outperformed the Russell Midcap Growth for the twelve-month period ended October 31, 2007. The most significant contributor to performance came from security selection in the consumer discretionary sector. In particular, investment in hotel/motel, retail, commercial services, education services, consumer electronics and communications and media companies greatly benefited relative returns. An underweight allocation and stock selection within the technology sector (mainly in computer software services firms) were also advantageous to performance. The health care sector also added to relative returns through an underweight allocation coupled with security selection in the medical and dental instruments and supplies and health care services segments.
The most significant detractors to performance included the materials and processing sector, where an underweight allocation and stock selection in real estate companies, an avoidance of metal fabricating firms and a single holding in an engineering and contracting services company hurt relative returns. Additionally, stock selection and an underweight allocation in the other energy sector negatively impacted returns. Here, our avoidance of oil well equipment companies as well as gas pipeline and coal companies greatly dampened overall performance.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning | | Ending | | Annualized | | Expenses | |
| | Account | | Account | | Expense | | Paid During | |
| | Value | | Value | | Ratio | | Period (a) | |
| | | | | | | | | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,213.37 | | 0.89 | % | $ | 4.95 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.66 | | 0.89 | | 4.52 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

Our investment discipline favors companies that have high barriers to entry, business visibility, rising return on invested capital, free cash flow and a favorable risk/reward profile. Our emphasis is on secular growth, and as a result, short-term market events are not as meaningful in the stock selection process.
At the end of the reporting period, consumer discretionary represented both the largest sector weight and overweight in the portfolio versus the Russell 2000 Growth. The technology and financial services sectors were the next largest absolute weights in the portfolio, although both sectors were underweight relative to the Russell 2000 Growth.
The portfolio underperformed the Russell 2000 Growth over the twelve-month period, and the sectors that contributed most significantly to performance were technology, financial services and producer durables. Within the technology sector, superior stock selection in computer software services and miscellaneous technology companies had the largest positive impact on relative returns. The financial services sector further added to the portfolio’s performance through security selection in the financial information services, real estate investment trusts (“REIT”s) and diversified financial services segments. Stock selection in homebuilding companies and telecommunication equipment firms in the producer durables sector was also advantageous to relative returns.
Still there were several areas of weakness for the portfolio. For instance, an overweight allocation in the integrated oils sector turned out to be the largest detractor to relative returns, offsetting gains made through positive stock selection. Poor stock selection in the utilities sector, particularly in wireless companies, coupled with an underweight allocation also dampened performance. The materials and processing sector further detracted from the portfolio due to investment in construction companies and an avoidance of metal fabricating companies.

Average Annual Total Return for Periods Ended 10/31/2007
| | 1 Year | | From Inception | | Inception Date | |

NOTES
(1) The Russell 2000 Growth (Russell 2000 Growth) Index is an unmanaged index used as a general measure of market performance. Calculations assume dividends and capital gains are reinvested and do not include any managerial expenses. From inception calculation is based on life of the Fund.
The performance data presented represents past performance, future results may vary. Performance data does not reflect the deduction of taxes that would be paid on fund distributions or the redemption of fund shares. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than performance quoted. Please see www.transamericaidex.com for performance data current to the most recent month-end.
Net Asset Value (NAV) returns include the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. Fund shares are sold without a sales load. Investing in small cap stocks generally involves greater risks so an investment in the Fund may not be appropriate for everyone.
This material must be preceded or accompanied by a current prospectus, which includes specific contents regarding the investment objectives and policies of this fund.
This fund is only available in Class I shares, which are not available for direct investment by the public.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES
(unaudited)
SHAREHOLDER EXPENSES
Fund shareholders may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchases, contingent deferred sales charges on redemptions and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, dividend expense on short-sales, and other fund expenses.
The following Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at May 1, 2007 and held for the entire period until October 31, 2007.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, 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 in the first line of your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year 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 your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges, redemption fees, brokerage commissions paid on purchases and sales of fund shares. Therefore, the second line under the Fund in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. If any of these transaction costs were included, your costs would be higher. The expenses shown in the table do not reflect any fees that may be charged to you by brokers, financial intermediaries or other financial institutions.
| | Beginning Account Value | | Ending Account Value | | Annualized Expense Ratio | | Expenses Paid During Period (a) | |
| | | | | | | | | |
Class I | | | | | | | | | |
Actual | | $ | 1,000.00 | | $ | 1,069.89 | | 1.01 | % | $ | 5.26 | |
Hypothetical (b) | | 1,000.00 | | 1,020.06 | | 1.01 | | 5.13 | |
| | | | | | | | | | | | |
(a) Expenses are calculated using the Fund’s annualized expense ratio (as disclosed in the table), multiplied by the average account value for the period, multiplied by the number of days in the period (184 days), and divided by the number of days in the year (365 days).
(b) 5% return per year before expenses.

* Fund commenced Class I share operations and converted Class A share assets to an equivalent value of Class I share assets on November 15, 2005.
In the normal course of business, the Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide general indemnifications. The Funds’ maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds and/or their affiliates that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Funds expect the risk of loss to be remote.
This report should be read in conjunction with the Funds’ current prospectuses, which contain more complete information about the Funds.
In preparing the Funds’ financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), estimates or assumptions (which could differ from actual results) may be used that affect reported amounts and disclosures. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.
Class operations, income and expenses: The Funds currently offer one class of shares, Class I shares, which are currently being offered for sale only to certain affiliated asset allocation funds. Income, non-class specific expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses, are allocated daily, based upon the value of shares outstanding method as permitted under Rule 18f-3 of the 1940 Act. Class I bore its own specific expenses as well as a portion of general, common expenses.
Security valuations: The Funds value their investments at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), normally 4 p.m. ET, each day the NYSE is open for business. Fund investments are valued at the last sale price or closing price on the day of valuation taken from the primary exchange where the security is principally traded.
Securities traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities for which no sale was reported on that date are valued at the last quoted bid price.
Debt securities are valued based on a price quotation or other equivalent indication of value supplied by an exchange, a pricing service or a major market maker; however, those that mature in sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market.
Investment company securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio.
Foreign securities generally are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded. Because many foreign securities markets and exchanges close prior to the close of the NYSE, closing prices for foreign securities in those markets or on those exchanges do not reflect the events that occur after that close. If a significant market event impacting the value of a portfolio security (e.g., natural disaster, company announcement, market volatility) occurs subsequent to the close of trading in the security, but prior to the calculation of the Funds’ net asset value per share, market quotations for that security may be determined to be unreliable and, accordingly, not “readily available.” As a result, foreign equity securities held by the Funds may be valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ Administrative Valuation Committee, under the supervision of the Board’s Valuation Committee, using guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
Other securities for which quotations are not readily available or whose values have been determined to be unreliable are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by the Funds’ Administrative Valuation Committee, under the supervision of the Board’s Valuation Committee, using guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees.
167
Cash: Each Fund may leave cash overnight in its cash account with the custodian, State Street Bank & Trust Company (“State Street”). On July 2, 2007, State Street acquired the parent company of Investors Bank & Trust Company (“IBT”). State Street has been contracted on behalf of the Funds to invest the excess cash into their savings accounts, which at October 31, 2007 were paying an interest rate of 3.00%.
Throughout the year, the Funds may have cash overdraft balances. A fee is incurred on these overdrafts, calculated by multiplying the overdrafts by a rate based on the federal funds rate.
Short sales: TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy and TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha may from time to time sell securities short. In the event that the sub-advisers anticipate that the price of securities will decline, they may sell the securities short and borrow the same securities from a broker or other institution to complete the sale. The Funds will incur a profit or a loss, depending upon whether the market price of the securities decreases or increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which the Funds must replace the borrowed securities. All short sales will be fully collateralized. Short sales represent an aggressive trading practice with a high risk/return potential, and short sales involve special considerations. Risks of short sales include that possible losses from short sales may be unlimited (e.g., if the price of stocks sold short rises), whereas losses from direct purchases of securities are limited to the total amount invested, and the Funds may be unable to replace borrowed securities sold short. Dividends paid by the issuers of the securities sold short are paid by the Funds to the lenders, recorded on the ex-date of the dividends and recorded as expenses on the Statements of Operations.
Repurchase agreements: The Funds are authorized to enter into repurchase agreements. The Funds, through their custodian, State Street, receive delivery of the underlying securities, the value of which at the time of purchase is required to be an amount equal to at least 100% of the resale price. The Funds will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the securities can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the securities. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs may be incurred.
Commission recapture: The sub-advisers of certain Funds, to the extent consistent with the best execution and usual commission rate policies and practices, have elected to place security transactions of the Funds with broker/dealers with which Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds has established a Commission Recapture Program. A Commission Recapture Program is any arrangement under which a broker/dealer applies a portion of the commissions received by such broker/dealer on the security transactions to the Funds. In no event will commissions paid by the Funds be used to pay expenses that would otherwise be borne by any other funds within Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds, or by any other party.
Recaptured commissions for the year ended October 31, 2007, are included in net realized gains in the Statements of Operations and are summarized as follows:

Securities lending: The Funds may lend securities to qualified borrowers, with State Street acting as the Funds’ lending agent. The Funds earn negotiated lenders’ fees. The Funds receive cash and/or securities as collateral against the loaned securities. Cash collateral received is invested in short term, interest bearing securities. The Funds monitor the market value of securities loaned on a daily basis and requires collateral in an amount at least equal to the value of the securities loaned.

Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes and interest rates.
Dividend income is recorded at management’s estimate of the income included in distributions from the REIT investments.
Distributions received in excess of the estimated amount are recorded as a reduction of the cost of investments. The actual amounts of income, return of capital and capital gains are only determined by each REIT after the fiscal year end and may differ from the estimated amounts.
Loan participations/ assignments: The Funds may purchase participations/ assignments in commercial loans. Such indebtedness may be secured or unsecured. These investments may include standby financing commitments, including revolving credit facilities that obligate the Funds to supply additional cash to the borrowers on demand. Loan participations/ assignments involve risks of insolvency of the lending banks or other financial intermediaries. As such, the Funds assume the credit risks associated with the corporate borrowers and may assume the credit risks associated with the interposed banks or other financial intermediaries. The Funds may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the agent banks and/or borrowers prior to the sale of these investments. Loan participations typically represent direct participation in loans to corporate borrowers, and generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending syndicates. The Funds may participate in such syndications, or can buy a portion of the loans, becoming part lenders. Loans are often administered by agent banks acting as agents for all holders. The agent banks administer the terms of the loans, as specified in the loan agreements. In addition, the agent banks are normally responsible for the collection of principal and interest payments from the corporate borrowers and the apportionment of these payments to the credit of all institutions that are parties to the loan agreements. Unless, under the terms of the loans or other indebtedness, the portfolios have direct recourse against the corporate borrowers, the Funds may have
171
to rely on the agent banks or other financial intermediaries to apply appropriate credit remedies against corporate borrowers.
Security transactions and investment income: Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Security gains and losses are calculated on the specific identification basis. Dividend income, if any, is recorded on the ex-dividend dates or, in the case of foreign securities, as soon as the Funds are informed of the ex-dividend dates. Interest income, including accretion of discounts and amortization of premiums, is recorded on the accrual basis commencing on the settlement date.
Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rate in effect when the investments were acquired. Each Fund combines fluctuations from currency exchange rates and fluctuations in value when computing net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments.
Net foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include: 1) foreign currency fluctuations between trade date and settlement date of investment security transactions; 2) gains and losses on forward foreign currency contracts; and 3) the difference between the receivable amounts of interest and dividends recorded in the accounting records in U.S. dollars and the amounts actually received.
Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions. These risks include revaluation of currencies, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values and possible adverse political, social and economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry, country or region.
Foreign capital gains taxes: The Funds may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they invest, with respect to their investments in issuers existing or operating in such countries. Such taxes are generally based on income earned or repatriated and capital gains realized on the sale of such investments. The Funds accrue such taxes when the related income or capital gains are earned. Some countries require governmental approval for the repatriation of investment income, capital or the proceeds of sales earned by foreign investors. In addition, if there is deterioration in a country’s balance of payments or for other reasons, a country may impose temporary restrictions on foreign capital remittances abroad.
Forward foreign currency contracts: The Funds may enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Contracts are valued at the contractual forward rate and are marked to market daily, with the change in value recorded as an unrealized gain or loss. When the contracts are settled a realized gain or loss is incurred. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.
Open forward currency contracts at October 31, 2007 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.
Futures contracts: The Funds may enter into futures contracts to manage exposure to market, interest rate or currency fluctuations. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with futures contracts are imperfect correlation between the change in market value of the securities held and the prices of futures contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms.
Open futures contracts at October 31, 2007 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.
Option contracts: The Funds may enter into option contracts to manage exposure to market fluctuations. Options are valued at the average of the bid and ask (“Mean Quote”) established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are an imperfect correlation between the change in value of the securities held and the prices of the option contracts; the possibility of an illiquid market and an inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms. When a Fund writes a covered call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by a Fund is included in the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and as an equivalent liability. Options are marked-to-market daily to reflect the current value of the option written.
The underlying face amounts of open option contracts at October 31, 2007 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.

NOTE 4. FEDERAL INCOME TAX MATTERS
The Funds have not made any provision for federal income or excise taxes due to their policy to distribute all of their taxable income and capital gains to their shareholders and otherwise qualify as regulated investment companies under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatment for items including, but not limited to, wash sales, REITS, PFICS and foreign currency transactions.
Therefore, distributions determined in accordance with tax regulations may differ significantly in amount or character from net investment income and realized gains for financial reporting purposes. Financial reporting records are adjusted for permanent book/tax differences to reflect tax character. Financial records are not adjusted for temporary differences. These reclassifications are as follows:
Fund | | Shares of beneficial interest, unlimited shares authorized | | Undistributed (accumulated) net investment income (loss) | | Undistributed (accumulated) net realized gain (loss) from investment securities | |

NOTE 5. REGULATORY PROCEEDINGS
There continues to be significant federal and state regulatory activity relating to financial services companies, particularly mutual fund companies and their investment advisers. As part of an ongoing investigation regarding potential market timing, recordkeeping and trading compliance issues and matters affecting the Funds’ investment adviser, TFAI, and certain affiliates and former employees of TFAI, the SEC staff has indicated that it is likely to take some action against TFAI and certain of its affiliates at the conclusion of the investigation. The potential timing and the scope of any such action is difficult to predict. Although the impact of any action brought against TFAI and/or its affiliates is difficult to assess at the present time, the Funds currently believe that the likelihood that any such action will have a material adverse impact is remote. It is important to note that the Funds are not aware of any allegation of wrongdoing against them and their Board at the time this annual report is printed. Although it is not anticipated that these developments will have an adverse impact on the Funds, there can be no assurance at this time. TFAI and its affiliates are actively working with the SEC in regard to this matter; however, the exact resolution cannot be determined at this time. TFAI will take such actions that it deems necessary or appropriate to continue providing management services to the Funds and to bring all matters to an appropriate conclusion.
TFAI and/or its affiliates, and not the Funds, will bear the costs regarding these regulatory matters.
NOTE 6. RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUCEMENTS
In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) released FASB Interpretation No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109”. FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the accounting and disclosure of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine where the tax positions are “more-likely- than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is effective during the first required financial reporting period for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006.
Implementation of FIN 48 requires Management of the Funds to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the Statute of Limitations, for all major jurisdictions, which includes federal and certain states. Open tax years are those that are open for exam by taxing authorities (i.e., the last 4 tax year ends and the interim tax period since then). The Funds have no examinations in progress and none are expected at this time.
As of September 28, 2007, Management of the Funds have reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded the adoption of FIN 48 resulted in no impact the Funds’ net assets or results of operations. There is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in future tax returns. The Funds are also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next 12 months.
In September 2006, FASB issued its new Standard No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 is designed to unify guidance for the measurement of fair value of all types of assets, including financial instruments, and certain liabilities, throughout a number of accounting standards. FAS 157 also establishes a hierarchy for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands financial statement disclosures about fair value measurements that are relevant to mutual funds. FAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and earlier application is permitted.
As of October 31, 2007, Management does not expect the adoption of FAS 157 to impact the amounts reported in the financial statements, however, additional disclosures will be required about the inputs used to develop the measurements of fair value and the effect of certain of the measurements reported in the statement of operations for a fiscal period.

NOTE 8. RESTATEMENT
The TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy and TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha Fund’s previously issued financial statements presented ratios of expenses to average net assets: total and ratios of expenses to average net assets: net incorrectly for the year ended October 31, 2007. The impact of correcting the expense ratios on the TA IDEX Mellon Market Neutral Strategy Fund was to increase the ratio of expenses to average net assets. The impact of correcting the expense ratios on the TA IDEX UBS Dynamic Alpha Fund was to decrease the ratios of expenses to average net assets. This restatement had no effect on the two fund’s net assets or net asset value per share during the period.
This restatement changed the financial highlights as follows:

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 October 31, 2007 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY AGREEMENTS - REVIEW AND APPROVAL (unaudited)
At a meeting of the Board of Trustees of Transamerica IDEX Mutual Funds (“TA IDEX”) held on October 3rd and 4th, 2006, in approving a mandate to establish TA IDEX Third Avenue Value as a new series of TA IDEX, the Board reviewed and considered the proposed investment advisory agreement (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”) between TA IDEX Third Avenue Value (the “Fund”) and Transamerica Fund Advisors, Inc. (“TFAI”), as well as the proposed investment sub-advisory agreement (the “Sub-Advisory Agreement”) of the Fund between TFAI and Third Avenue Management LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”), to determine whether the agreements should be approved for an initial two-year period. Following their review and consideration, the Trustees determined that the proposed Investment Advisory Agreement and the proposed Sub-Advisory Agreement would enable shareholders of the Fund to obtain high quality services at a cost that is appropriate, fair, and in the best interests of its shareholders. The Board, including the independent members of the Board, unanimously approved the proposed Investment Advisory Agreement and Sub-Advisory Agreement. In reaching their decision, the Trustees requested and obtained from TFAI and the Sub-Adviser such information as they deemed reasonably necessary to evaluate the proposed agreements, including information about fees and performance of comparable funds managed by the Sub-Adviser. In considering the proposed approval of the Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Trustees evaluated a number of considerations that they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them by independent legal counsel and their own business judgment, to be relevant. They based their decisions on the following considerations, among others, although they did not identify any consideration or particular information that was controlling of their decisions:
The nature, extent and quality of the advisory services to be provided. The Board considered the nature and quality of the services expected to be provided by TFAI and the Sub-Adviser. They concluded that TFAI and the Sub-Adviser are capable of providing high quality services to the Fund, as indicated by the nature and quality of services provided in the past by TFAI for other series within the fund complex and the Sub-Adviser’s management capabilities demonstrated with respect to other funds it manages and the experience, capability and integrity of TFAI’s senior management, the financial resources of TFAI and the Sub-Adviser, TFAI’s management oversight process and the professional qualifications and experience of the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio management team (the Board reviewed carefully the qualifications of the prospective managers for the Fund). The Trustees determined that TFAI and the Sub-Adviser can provide investment and related services that are appropriate in scope and extent in light of the proposed Fund’s operations, the competitive landscape of the investment company business and investor needs.
The investment performance of the Fund. The Fund was not yet in existence and therefore had no historical performance for the Board to review. However, the Board examined the performance of a fund managed by the Sub-Adviser with investment objectives and strategies comparable to those of the Fund. The Board noted that the comparable fund and other funds managed by the Sub-Adviser have generally performed well and have generated investor interest. On the basis of the Board’s assessment of the nature, extent and quality of advisory services to be provided or procured by TFAI and the Sub-Adviser, the Board concluded that TFAI and the Sub-Adviser are capable of generating a level of investment performance that is appropriate in light of the Fund’s proposed investment objectives, policies and strategies and competitive with other investment companies, and also determined that TFAI’s and the Sub-Adviser’s performance records for other funds indicate that their management of the Fund is likely to benefit the Fund and its shareholders.
The cost of advisory services provided and the level of profitability. The Fund was not yet in existence and therefore no revenue, cost or profitability data was available for the Board to review. However, the Board reviewed projected profitability information regarding TFAI’s costs of procuring portfolio management services, as well as the costs of its provision of administration, transfer agency, fund accounting and other services, to the proposed Fund and other funds within the fund complex. Based on such information and the proposed management and sub-advisory fees for the Fund, the Trustees determined that the proposed management fees of the Fund generally are consistent with industry averages and are appropriate in light of the services expected to be provided or procured, the management fees and the anticipated profitability of the relationship between the Fund, TFAI and its affiliates, and the Sub-Adviser. The Board also took note of the costs involved in establishing a new fund and acknowledged that the Fund is being added as an investment option for the asset allocation funds only and that these funds’ assets will flow into the proposed Fund. In making these observations and determinations, the Board reviewed comparative information provided by Lipper, Inc. and Strategic Insight Simfund.
Whether fee levels reflect economies of scale and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows. In evaluating the extent to which the management fees payable under the new Investment Advisory and Sub-Advisory Agreements reflect economies of scale or will permit economies of scale to be realized in the future, the Board took note of TFAI’s pricing strategy and the absence of advisory and sub-advisory fee breakpoints as detailed in the materials provided to the Board. The Board concluded that the management fees appropriately reflect the Fund’s anticipated size, the current economic environment for TFAI, the competitive nature of the investment company market, and TFAI’s pricing strategy. The Board also noted that, in the future, it would have the opportunity to periodically re-examine whether the Fund has achieved economies of scale and the appropriateness of management fees payable to TFAI and fees payable by TFAI to the Sub-Adviser, and whether advisory and sub-advisory fee breakpoints would be appropriate going forward.
Benefits (such as soft dollars) to TFAI, its affiliates, or the Sub-Adviser from their relationship with the Fund. The Board concluded that other benefits anticipated to be derived by TFAI, its affiliates, and the Sub-Adviser from their relationships with the Fund, including “soft dollar” benefits (if any) in connection with brokerage transactions are expected to be reasonable and fair, and consistent with industry practice and the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Trustees noted that TFAI would not realize soft dollar benefits from its relationship with the Fund, and that the Sub-Adviser would engage in soft-dollar arrangements consistent with applicable law and “best execution” requirements. In addition, the Trustees noted that the Sub-Adviser will be asked to participate in a brokerage program pursuant to which a certain portion of brokerage commissions paid by the Fund is recaptured for the benefit of the Fund and its shareholders, which could limit the amount of “soft-dollar” arrangements the Sub-Adviser may engage in with respect to the Fund’s portfolio brokerage transactions.
Other considerations. The Board considered the investment objective of the Fund and its investment strategies and determined that the Fund would enhance the investment options for the asset allocation funds. The Board determined that TFAI has made a substantial commitment to the recruitment and retention of high quality personnel, and maintains the financial, compliance and operational resources reasonably necessary to manage the Fund in a professional manner that is consistent with the best interests of the Fund and its
180
shareholders. In this regard, the Trustees favorably considered the procedures and policies in place by TFAI to enforce compliance with applicable laws and regulations and oversee the portfolio management activities of the Sub-Adviser. The Trustees also determined that TFAI has made a significant entrepreneurial commitment to the management and success of the Fund, reflected by TFAI’s expense limitation and fee waiver arrangements with the Fund which may result in TFAI waiving a substantial amount of management fees for the benefit of shareholders. In approving the Fund, the Board also considered the high quality of the Sub-Adviser’s portfolio management personnel who will manage the Fund under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, and their overall portfolio management capabilities. The Board determined that they, too, have made substantial commitments to the recruitment and retention of high quality personnel, and maintain the financial and operational resources reasonably necessary to manage the Fund.
