PRESIDENT’S LETTER
Dear Shareholder,
After hitting a low point in early March, the stock market has staged an impressive comeback, gaining more than 30% as measured by the Standard & Poor’s 500® Composite Stock Price (“S&P 500®”) Index(1). If you have stuck to your long-term investment plans through these trying times, you may have seen your patience somewhat rewarded over the last few weeks (though equity markets are still well off their highs).
I doubt that everyone who bought stocks these last few weeks did so because the bargains were so good. The recent gains in the stock market are, at least in part, a sign of optimism: they point to investor expectations that, maybe within a year or so, the economy and corporate earnings will improve. It’s a vote of confidence that the measures taken to restore the economy are likely to work.
Though we look forward hopefully, the market’s troubles are not yet over. Credit markets continue to face challenges. The stock market remains volatile. People are still losing jobs. Generally, income, spending and home prices are still falling. The economy continues to shrink. Although the rate of shrinkage is slowing — a good thing — we won’t see recovery until housing prices stabilize and spending picks up.
The recent gains in the stock market show how things can change when it is least expected. If you had retreated from stocks, you would have missed those gains. It’s important to remember that trying to time market moves can hurt long-term investment results. It can’t be said too often that the most important investment decision is to keep your long-term goals in sight and take those actions that serve to reinforce your aims.
Reaching your goals depends on the potential of your investments to generate gains, income and diversification. Your investment needs may change over time but should always reflect an appropriate mix of these attributes. Whether you’ve followed your plan or not, I urge you to discuss your situation with your financial advisor to determine your best next steps. Thank you for your continued confidence in ING. We take the trust you place in us very seriously.
Sincerely,
Shaun P. Mathews

Market Perspective: Six Months Ended April 30, 2009
Our new fiscal year dawned with the financial world staring into the abyss of credit market collapse. Global equities in the form of the MSCI World® Index(1) measured in local currencies, including net reinvested dividends (“MSCI” for regions discussed below), continued to slide and by March 9, 2009, the index had dropped nearly 26% for the fiscal year to date, plumbing levels not seen since late 2002. From there, markets recovered, paring the loss for the six month period ended April 30, 2009 to 5.80%. (The MSCI World® Index dropped 5.44% for the six month period ended April 30, 2009, measured in U.S. dollars). In currencies, the large moves of the previous fiscal year were not maintained. For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the dollar fell 3.40% against the euro, 0.50% against the yen, but gained 9.50% against the pound as the UK’s fiscal position deteriorated.
The global credit crisis had worsened after the U.S. government, by then the judge, jury and executioner for financial institutions in trouble, allowed Lehman Brothers no reprieve from bankruptcy. Lending all but seized up. Investors dumped risky asset classes to buy U.S. Treasuries or repay debt.
The policy response was huge but initially muddled. The Troubled Assets Relief Program (“TARP”), with a budget of $700 billion, was originally intended to relieve banks’ balance sheets of enormous volumes of distressed loans and toxic assets. Instead most of the money was used to recapitalize the banks.
Other government-sponsored programs did provide practical help, like support for the commercial paper market and a guarantee facility for money market funds. The announced intention to buy vast quantities of agency mortgage-backed bonds and debentures drove 30-year mortgage rates below 5% to record low levels. The newly-elected U.S. president promised a $1 trillion stimulus package. And in December, the Federal Open Market Committee (“FOMC”) reduced interest rates to between 0% and 0.25%.
Hopes that these measures would help solidify melting economies and investment markets spurred a late-2008 rally. But credit conditions remained conspicuously tight and equities resumed their fall in early January.
Meanwhile in the real economy unemployment reached 8.50% in March, the highest since 1983. The Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”)/Case-Shiller National U.S. Home Price Index(2)of house prices in 20 cities sank 19% year-over-year in January, while new home sales repeatedly set new record low levels. Inflation recorded its first annual decline since 1955. Gross Domestic Product (“GDP”) fell at an annualized rate of 6.10% in the first quarter of 2009, after 6.30% in the previous quarter, the worst performance since 1982. And amid a new wave of concern about the viability of major banks, the U.S. Department of the Treasury (“Treasury”) announced that it would take a 36% stake in Citigroup.
Yet by early March, some of the news was getting better. Before long, the term “green shoots” seemed to be on the lips of almost every financial commentator. Personal spending, retail sales (excluding autos), durable goods orders, consumer confidence and at last, new home sales unexpectedly picked up from still poor levels. Some specific details were announced about a new Public-Private Investment Program to buy up banks’ distressed securities: many people think it might just work. And on March 10, 2009, stock markets soared when the above-mentioned Citigroup surprised everybody by saying that 2009 had been profitable so far. All of this paved the way, rocky and uneven at times, for a partial return to favor for risky asset classes, at least through April.
U.S. fixed income markets had a tumultuous six months, reflecting appetite for risk. The Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index(3) of investment grade bonds returned 7.74% for the six month period ended April 30, 2009, but practically none of it in 2009. High yield bonds, represented by the Barclays Capital High Yield Bond — 2% Issuer Constrained Composite Index(4) gained 16.39% for the six month period ended April 30, 2009, (2.75)% before March 10, 2009, and 19.68% thereafter. The yield on the ten-year U.S. Treasury Note started the fiscal year at 3.97%, fell by the end of 2008 to 2.24%, the lowest since 1954, but recovered to 3.12% for the six month period ended April 30, 2009. Similarly, the yield on the 90-day Treasury Bill started at 0.44%, briefly turned negative in December and ended at 0.12% for the six month period ended April 30, 2009, still very low historically.
U.S. equities, represented by the S&P 500® Composite Stock Price (“S&P 500®”) Index(5), including dividends, returned (8.50)% in the six month period ended April 30, 2009. The first quarter of 2009 would mark the seventh straight quarter of declining profits for

Market Perspective: Six Months Ended April 30, 2009
S&P 500® companies. As with stock markets generally, March 9, 2009, marked the low point for the S&P 500®, when the index closed at September 1996 levels. From there it recovered 29.40%, the financials sub-index soaring 74.10%.
As noted above, international markets also took heart after March 9, 2009, on the basis of frankly, not very much and bounced back from large losses. The MSCI Japan® Index(6) fell 2.40% for the six month period ended April 30, 2009. Export dependent gross domestic product (“GDP”) receded at an annualized 12.10%, the worst since 1974, as exports halved in value year-over-year and household spending fell for 13 straight months. The MSCI Europe ex UK® Index(7) slid 6.10% for the six month period ended April 30, 2009, also depressed by slumping exports, especially in Germany, the world’s biggest exporter. Eurozone industrial production in February was 18.40% below the level of February 2008, the worst annual fall on record. The European Central Bank was raising interest rates as late as July 2008, but ultimately cut back to 1.25%, still above other major central bank rates. The MSCI UK® Index(8) fell just 0.40% for the six month period ended April 30, 2009. The UK had allowed a bigger housing bubble than the United States and deeper personal indebtedness in an economy more dependent on the now suffering financial sector. The Bank of England repeatedly reduced rates to 0.50%, the lowest since its establishment in 1694 and introduced quantitative easing. Still, GDP fell at a quarterly rate of 1.90% in the first quarter of 2009, after 1.60% in the previous quarter.

ING Global Equity Dividend Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Global Equity Dividend Fund (the “Fund”) seeks growth of capital with dividend income as a secondary consideration. The Fund is managed by Nicolas Simar, Head of Value/High Dividend, Moudy El Khodr, Senior Investment Manager Equities, and Kris Hermie, CFA, Senior Investment Manager of ING Investment Management Advisors B.V. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (11.98)% compared to the MSCI World Indexsm(1), which returned (5.44)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Fund’s underperformance for the period was largely attributable to security selection. Asset allocation also detracted from results but to a smaller degree.
The sectors that detracted the most from results were financials, energy and materials. Weak stock selection in financials hurt the most. Also, sector allocation among financials and information technology stocks detracted significantly. The Fund benefited from allocation and selection among telecommunications stocks, and from selection among consumer staples stocks.
Top contributing stocks for the period were Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (“Taiwan Semi”), Wesfarmers Ltd. (“Wesfarmers”) and Vinci S.A. Taiwan Semi’s long-term fundamentals remain strong and first quarter results were good. Guidance on revenue and margins for next quarter is significantly higher than current consensus expectations.
Among telecoms the Fund benefited by selling its position in Telecom Italia SpA, which reduced its dividend, and reentering Brazilian telecom Tele Norte Leste Participacoes S/A, which posted significant gains during the period.
Fund positions in Intel Corp. and Seagate Technology Inc. (“Seagate”) helped results. Seagate benefited from evidence that pricing was stabilizing somewhat, and from a potential increase in market share: the Toshiba/Fujistu combination may lead some clients to search for a new vendor. Hitachi’s issues with its own heads for 500-gigabyte drives caused it to miss a product launch date; investors interpreted this as positive for Seagate.
Among consumer discretionary companies, the greatest contribution to relative returns came from not owning Volkswagen AG, which fell dramatically in price. Among materials, the Fund’s positions in MeadWestvaco Corp., Swenska Cellulosa AB and Siam Cement contributed to results.
Negative macro news such as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s report on 4th quarter banks’ heavier losses than originally reported reverberated through the financials sector. Despite gains from Toronto-Dominion Bank, Wells Fargo & Co. and Australia & New Zealand Banking Group Ltd., the continuing bad news led to weakness. Several banks were among the worst detractors for the period: Bank of America Corp., Swedbank AB and Aviva PLC.
In January, Bank of America Corp. cut its dividend for a second time, precipitating a loss of more than half the stock’s value. We sold the Fund’s Bank of America position in January, thereby avoiding further losses the stock sustained in the ensuing months. Share prices of UK insurers, including Fund holding Aviva PLC (“Aviva”), slumped as the cost of insuring certain European companies against defaulting on their debt soared. Aviva also announced a heavy 2008 loss.
Energy company Precision Drilling Trust was the worst detractor for the period, falling in price due to reduced capital spending by North American oil and gas producers. We sold the Fund’s position after the company discontinued its monthly dividend to focus on its debt reduction program.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our outlook for the strategy remains positive. We believe investments in quality defensive names potentially may give the Fund downside protection and lower volatility. Under current market conditions, we believe this may help the Fund outperform its benchmark. Regardless of scenario, the Fund seeks to identify sectors or stocks where it may exploit temporary under-valuations to capture unrecognized value.

ING Global Natural Resources Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Global Natural Resources Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to attain long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by David Powers and Christopher Corapi*, Portfolio Managers, both of ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (2.02)% compared to the Standard & Poor’s 500® Composite Stock Price Index(1) (“S&P 500® Index”) and the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) North American Natural Resources Sector Index(2) which returned (8.53)% and (3.34)%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: During the reporting period, commodity prices continued their volatile trend. Energy stocks fell more than 20% through February due to a significant decline in U.S. equity markets, falling oil and gas prices and concerns over global demand. The energy sector recovered the majority of its losses in March and April, however, as economic reports started to point to stabilization in economic activity. In contrast, materials companies rose more than 20% over the entire period — largely due to strength in gold prices as investors flocked to this commodity as a safe haven. Diversified metals and mining companies also rose significantly, benefiting from consolidation and early signs of a bottoming in industrial production.
The Fund’s relative outperformance was due mainly to its holdings within the gold and diversified metals and mining sub-sectors. Investments in Rio Tinto PLC and BHP Billiton Ltd. ADR, two of the largest metals and mining companies, benefited from strong balance sheets, a diverse mix of commodity products and their ability to increase market share in a consolidating industry.
Within energy, our decision to underweight ConocoPhillips also aided relative performance — this company continues to suffer for its low-quality asset base. Positions in Sunoco, Inc. (“Sunoco”) and Talisman Energy, Inc. (“Talisman”) also helped results. Sunoco was trading at an extremely low valuation because of weak fundamentals for the refining sector as a whole, which we believed already were discounted in the stock. Because of its early cycle characteristics, early signs of stabilization in the U.S. economy gave Sunoco a boost. Talisman Energy, an upstream oil and gas company, benefited from its inexpensive valuation and attractive resource base.
The Fund’s small- and mid-cap positions within the exploration and production industry, including W&T Offshore, Inc. (“W&T Offshore”), Stone Energy Corp. (“Stone Energy”) and Cimarex Energy Co. (“Cimarex”), detracted from results during this period. These companies were plagued by rising costs and larger than expected reserve write-downs due to falling oil prices. As a result of deteriorating fundamentals, we decided to exit the positions in W&T Offshore and Stone Energy. We continue to like Cimarex for the upside potential of its reserve base, as implied by the results of a recent exploration of a Woodford Shale position. Within materials the Funds was hurt by its exposure to steel companies, which were hurt by concerns over declining demand, particularly from China.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We continue to believe the long-term case for commodities remains intact and will be driven by industrialization and urbanization trends in emerging economies, as well as the global need for infrastructure spending. Current global financial stresses have interrupted this secular theme longer than expected. If commodity prices remain at moderate levels, however, we believe that resource companies will question new supply additions. Global mining and energy development costs have risen, and although cyclical are expected to stay elevated, thus raising the marginal price needed to justify new investment. When demand recovers, we would expect to see firmer prices and strong cash flows from the industry.

ING Global Real Estate Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Global Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investors with high total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The Fund is managed by T. Ritson Ferguson, Chief Investment Officer and Portfolio Manager, Steven D. Burton, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager and Joseph P. Smith, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager, of ING Clarion Real Estate Securities L.P. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (13.58)% including a return of capital of $0.09, compared to the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) Developed Property Index(1), which returned (11.75)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The past six months have proved to be a challenging period for global listed real estate markets as credit market conditions and a slowing global economy continued to provide headwinds to the world’s capital markets. There has been a divergence in returns during the period as the Asia-Pacific region has fared the best, followed by the European region. The Americas have trailed, largely the result of a continued sell-off in U.S. markets. Since hitting a low point during the period, at the beginning of March, property markets have rallied strongly, triggered by the demonstrated ability of property companies to raise capital and repair balance sheets. Investors have reason for greater confidence that capital markets are improving in light of the significant equity and debt capital raised during the last few months.
Fund performance trailed the benchmark during the period, the result of stock selection within the Asia-Pacific region, primarily in Japan and Australia. In Japan, two of the Fund’s largest positions, Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. and Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd. were both down on concerns of a slowing global economy. Within Australia, an overweight to the underperforming industrial company Goodman Group was the most notable underperformer from a relative standpoint. While stock selection in the European region was neutral for the period, stock selection in the Americas was positive, led by strong relative performance of the Fund’s U.S. holdings. Overweight positions in industrial company Liberty Property Trust and specialty office company Digital Realty Trust, Inc. contributed positively to relative performance during the period. Country allocation decisions detracted from relative performance during the period, the result of an underweight to the outperforming Asia-Pacific region, primarily in Hong Kong which was one of the best performing markets. Within the European region, relative performance was slightly negative as an underweight to the outperforming Austrian market more than offset the positive contributions of an overweight to the outperforming French property stocks and underweight to the underperforming U.K. market.
Current Strategy and Outlook: The Fund continues to maintain a core positioning in what we believe are high-quality companies. We remain overweight sectors and geographies offering long-term leases and high percentages of earnings from recurring sources (primarily contract lease rental income). We prefer companies offering more transparency, strong balance sheets and good, experienced management teams. We believe this focus on quality has driven our longer-term outperformance.
We increasingly see companies which, in our opinion, represent value in this environment (i.e., cash flow multiples in the mid-single digits and discounts to our view of inherent real estate value). We have been building positions in such companies. We have not been able to justify, however, investing in those companies which we deem to have significant and potentially insurmountable issues. Paradoxically, many of the companies with the largest issues have outperformed as of late. We remain disciplined investors in those companies which we believe are able to provide appropriate above average total return potential without exposing the Fund to excessive downside risk.
In our opinion, global property companies remain attractively valued. We estimate the average global property company is trading at a 6% discount to our internal estimate of inherent private real estate market value.

ING Global Value Choice Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by David B. Iben, CFA, Portfolio Manager of Tradewinds Global Investors, LLC (“Tradewinds”) — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 20.31% compared to the MSCI All Country World Indexsm(1) (“MSCI ACWI”) which returned (3.34)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Fund had positive absolute returns during the six month period ending April 30, 2009. The Fund outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI ACWIsm, which had a negative return during the period.
A significant portion of the Fund’s relative outperformance was due to its overweight and stock selection in the materials sector, and stock selection in the consumer staples sector. The Fund’s return was most impaired on an absolute basis in the financials and consumer discretionary sectors, even though the Fund remained significantly underweight to the benchmark in the financial sector. The Fund invested in companies representing 19 countries — the two largest country weightings, excluding the U.S., were Japan and Canada.
In the consumer staples sector, Marine Harvest was the Fund’s largest contributor to performance during the period. Marine Harvest is a fully integrated, Norwegian-based salmon fish farming company with a 25 percent global market share and operations in twenty countries. Strong share performance was in part due to strong European salmon prices in early 2009.
The materials sector outperformed, with several of the Fund’s top performers belonging to this sector. Gold stocks in particular were among the best performers in the top-contributing materials sector. U.S.-based Newmont Mining Corp. (“Newmont”), with operations in Latin America, Africa, and Australia, and Lihir Gold Ltd. (“Lihir”), a gold producer in the Australasian region were among the best contributors to performance. We trimmed our exposure slightly in both Newmont and Lihir during the period, but remained overweight in the sector.
The worst contributor to performance during the period was Kao Corp. ADR. Headquartered in Tokyo, Japan, the company is principally involved in the manufacture and sale of household products, cosmetics and industrial products. The company’s share price declined due to a slowdown in demand for its chemicals and personal-care products.
Finnish paper products company, UPM-Kymmene OYJ, was also among the Fund’s worst performing holdings. In general, paper companies have underperformed due to oversupply and decreasing demand for paper. We believe that once the excess capacity is removed from the paper industry, prices should rise to levels sufficient to generate positive returns.
UBS AG (“UBS”) is a wealth management, investment banking and asset management firm that provides a variety of financial services. Media coverage and adverse headlines over its alleged role in tax evasion by its U.S. clients holding accounts overseas increased negative investor sentiments towards the stock and the UBS share price fell. Consequently, UBS was among the Fund’s larger individual detractors for the reference period.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our basic investment philosophy continues to focus on buying what we believe are good or improving business franchises around the globe whose securities we believe were selling below their intrinsic value. We believe that the best value opportunities are in the securities of those businesses that are the most leveraged to the growth of the global economy.
We do not know if equity markets bottomed in March of 2009 — only time will tell. We do believe that if one is investing for the long term it is likely that equity markets offer the best upside of almost any asset class. Utilizing our team of global sector specialists we continue to find what we believe to be good opportunities in many parts of the market. For the patient long term investor, we believe there has rarely been a better time to buy good companies at attractive valuations.

ING Asia-Pacific Real Estate Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Asia-Pacific Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investors with high total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The Fund is managed by T. Ritson Ferguson, Chief Investment Officer, CFA and Steven D. Burton, Managing Director, CFA, both of ING Clarion Real Estate Securities L.P. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (8.50)% compared to the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) Asia-Pacific Property Index(1) which returned (2.79)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The past six months have proved to be a challenging period for the region’s listed real estate markets as credit market conditions and a slowing global economy continued to provide headwinds to the world’s capital markets. The Asia-Pacific region has showed particular sensitivity to ongoing concerns regarding the continuing effects of a contracting global economy, as many of the region’s economies are export-based. Interestingly, countries that have exposure to China (Hong Kong and Singapore) have fared significantly better than the other countries in the region and were the only countries to post positive performance during the period. Australia and Japan lagged during the period. Since hitting a low point during the period, at the beginning of March, property markets have rallied strongly as investors are beginning to show confidence in the region, especially with respect to the continued expansion of the Chinese economy as it benefits the Asia-Pacific region in general.
The Fund underperformed the benchmark for the period as a result of stock selection and country allocation decisions which were due largely to the Fund’s defensive positioning and a high-quality bias. Although this strategy has benefited the Fund over the past year’s decline in the market, there have been periods of underperformance, on a relative basis, as “high beta” companies have outperformed more defensively positioned companies in which the Fund remains overweight. The nature of “high beta” includes companies with challenged balance sheets, complex business strategies, vulnerable property types and/or issues regarding managements’ ability to execute on stated plans. From a stock selection standpoint, underperformance has been concentrated in Japan and Australia, more than offsetting positive stock selection in Hong Kong during the period. In Japan, two of the Fund’s largest positions, Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. and Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd. were both down on concerns of a slowing global economy. Stock selection in Hong Kong was a bright spot as Fund overweights in Wharf Holdings Ltd., China Resources Land Ltd. and Sino-Ocean Land Holdings Ltd. contributed strongly to relative performance.
We have been re-orienting the Fund in the last few months seeking greater exposure to those companies, which in our opinion, represent value in this environment (i.e., cash flow multiples in the mid-single digits and discounts to our view of inherent real estate value). We have not been able to justify, however, investing in those companies which we deem to have significant and potentially insurmountable issues. Paradoxically, many of the companies with the largest issues have outperformed as of late. We remain disciplined investors in those companies which we believe are able to provide appropriate above average total return potential without exposing the Fund to excessive downside risk.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We remain cautious of many of the Asian markets. Values look interesting, but our caution is a function of several variables: (1) no yield support — dividend levels in Asia are generally low; (2) a lower proportion of revenues come from long-term contract rents for many companies; and (3) a higher proportion of revenues come from development activities which, by nature, bring above-average risk. In this environment, investors crave (even demand) certainty. Sectors and geographies offering long-term leases and high percentages of earnings from recurring sources (primarily contract lease rental income) have been the outperformers so far this year. More positively, in our opinion, Asian property stocks continue to look attractive from a valuation standpoint, with price-to-NAV discounts ranging from 10% to 25%.
We believe the rationale for an Asia-Pacific listed property strategy remains very much intact including the opportunity for diversification in the region, access to solid long-term underlying property fundamentals and the continued expansion of the real estate investment trust (“REIT”) structure throughout the region. This remains true even under the likely scenario of slowing global economic growth over the coming year.

ING Disciplined International SmallCap Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Disciplined International SmallCap Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by Vincent Costa, CFA, Portfolio Manager*, of ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 0.30% compared to the Standard and Poor’s (“S&P”) Developed ex-US SmallCap Index(1), which returned 6.06% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The strategy performed strongly early in the period as valuation and quality factors drove performance. Later in the period, the Fund pulled back as quality and valuation factors like share buyback and earnings growth to price struggled. The Fund’s positions in the diversified financials and health care equipment service sub-sectors hurt results.
In March, although factor performance was highly volatile and low-quality stocks rallied, the Fund outperformed its benchmark thanks to the performance of value factors like book to price and earnings to price. April was another down month as market recognition factors underperformed and significantly hurt results. Overall, the volatility in factor performance during 2009 hurt the Fund.
Security selection in the materials, consumer discretionary, healthcare and consumer staples sectors detracted from performance. Security selection in the financials and industrials sectors partially offset those losses. An overweight position in the financials sector hurt performance but was partially offset by an overweight position in the energy sector.
The top detractors included overweight positions in were Anglo Irish Bank Corp. PLC, Koninklijke Boskalis Westminster N.V. and EXOR S.p.A. PRV. Top contributors during the period were overweight positions in Daou Technology, Inc., Kenedix, Inc. and Swedbank AB.
Current Strategy and Outlook: The Fund uses a quantitatively driven international small-cap strategy that applies a proprietary ranking process to detect unrecognized value in stocks of companies the portfolio managers believe can outperform the market averages because of their strong business fundamentals. Our analysis positions the Fund to capitalize on what we believe are high quality companies with superior business momentum, strong earnings and attractive valuations.
The Fund is currently overweight in the industrials and consumer information technology sectors and underweight in the consumer discretionary sector.

ING Emerging Countries Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Emerging Countries Fund (the ��Fund”) seeks maximum long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by Jan-Wim Derks, Michael Bootsma and Roberto Lampl, Portfolio Managers of ING Investment Management Advisors, B.V. (“IIMA”) — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 12.41% compared to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index sm(1) (“MSCI EM Indexsm”), which returned 17.38% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Over the reporting period, global equity markets experienced extreme levels of volatility and emerging markets were no exception. Worries about the global financial system and the poor economic outlook dominated investor sentiment until the end of February. In early March, investor sentiment turned 180 degrees on the back of inflationary global economic stimulus, signs of a Chinese economic recovery, an improvement in credit markets and the unwinding of underweight positions in equities. As a result, emerging markets rallied sharply in March and April. Over the full reporting period emerging markets strongly outperformed developed markets, resuming the trend of the last couple of years.
During the final months of 2008 the Fund was defensively positioned, focused on high quality companies with proven management capabilities and strong balance sheets. The Fund held large overweight positions in sectors with relatively high earnings visibility and strong cash flow generating capacity, such as telecoms, consumer staples, utilities and healthcare. The Fund underweighted positions in more cyclical sectors such as financials, information technology, materials and consumer discretionary.
The Fund held significant overweight positions in Teva Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd. (“Teva”), accounting for the Fund’s entire allocation to the healthcare sector and to Israel, Bharti Airtel Ltd., China Mobile Ltd. ADR, Ambev Companhia de Bebidas Das Americas, Chunghwa Telecom Co., Ltd. (“Chunghwa Telecom”) and Enersis SA.
The Fund was overweighted in China and India. In stark contrast to the rest of the world, both countries saw their economies expanding in 2009. The Fund also held significant overweight positions in Israel and Chile, two markets with defensive qualities. The Fund was underweight in Brazil, Russia, South Korea and South Africa.
This strategy had mixed results during the first four months of the period. The financials sector was one of the worst performing sectors globally during the period on concerns that some of the big U.S. banks were undercapitalized, but materials proved one of the best performing sectors. The overweight in Teva helped results. Stocks that did not do well during the period were Bumi Resources Tbk PT (“Bumi Resources”) and Chunghwa Telecom. Bumi Resources’ management lost credibility after engaging in dubious asset transactions at the holding company level. Chungwha Telecom, which has a high dividend yield, is seen as a very defensive name and therefore missed out on the March-April rally in the market.
The Fund’s defensive positioning hurt results during the market rally in March and April. Emerging markets gained more than 30%, led by cyclical sectors such as financials, materials, information technology and consumer discretionary. What’s more, the rally was led by lower quality companies and small- and mid-cap stocks. Defensive sectors lagged by a large margin, particularly health care and telecom services. The Fund’s relative performance suffered as a result.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We believe that markets have rallied too hard too fast. Economic indicators have improved and the global economy may have bottomed, but we do not believe that a quick economic recovery is likely, as we think consumption, investments and exports will remain slow for some time.
With the trough of the economic cycle seemingly behind us, the focus of the portfolio has shifted away from the very defensive stance that it had at the beginning of the year. The Fund has gradually reduced the exposure to defensive sectors such as consumer staples, health care and telecom services. The proceeds have been used to increase positions in the financials and energy sectors. The Fund has reduced its positions in India and Israel to neutral, relative to the benchmark.
On the other hand, it has increased exposure to Brazil, Russia, South Korea and Taiwan to neutral or overweight. Commodity and oil prices have risen from their lows, favoring the commodity exporting countries. The China-Taiwan relationship is improving rapidly. We believe this will lead to a re-rating of the market.
Emerging markets seem better positioned to weather the crisis than in the past. They do not suffer from the systemic financial problems that afflict the developed markets. We think emerging markets are likely to recover faster from the financial crisis than developed markets, which bodes well for their stock markets.

Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING European Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investors with high total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The Fund is managed by T. Ritson Ferguson, Chief Investment Officer, CFA and Steven D. Burton, Managing Director, CFA of ING Clarion Real Estate Securities L.P. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (9.23)% compared to the Standard & Poor’s Europe Property Index(1) (“S&P Europe Property Index”), which returned (8.91)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The past six months have proved to be a very challenging period for the region’s listed real estate markets as credit market conditions and a slowing global economy continued to provide headwinds to the world’s capital markets. Within the European region, the return differential between countries during the period was quite substantial, ranging from a 40.20% return posted by Austria, the best-performing market during the period, to a (45.50)% return posted by Spain, the poorest-performing market during the period. The two largest markets also showed a significant divergence as the U.K. market (a 31% weight in the benchmark) was down during the period, largely on expectations of a continued economic slowdown; meanwhile French property markets (a 29% weight in the benchmark) experienced a positive return during the period, primarily due to strong returns posted by Unibail Rodamco, the leading pan-European mall company.
The Fund underperformed the benchmark for the period as positive stock selection was offset by country allocation decisions. Stock selection was especially strong in the U.K., where positioning of the Fund benefited from underweight positions in mall company Liberty International PLC as well as industrial company SEGRO PLC. An overweight to office company Derwent London PLC also helped relative performance as did an overweight to Unibail Rodamco, which was the Fund’s largest overweight during the period.
Positive country allocation decisions added value through overweights to outperforming property markets in France and the Netherlands but were more than offset by an underweight to Austria, whose property markets have rebounded strongly from a significant sell-off in 2008.
Current Strategy and Outlook: The Fund continues to maintain a core positioning in what we believe are high-quality companies. We remain overweight sectors and geographies offering long-term leases and high percentages of earnings from recurring sources (primarily contract lease rental income). We prefer companies offering more transparency, strong balance sheets and good, experienced management teams. This focus on quality has driven our longer-term outperformance.
We increasingly see companies which, in our opinion, represent value in this environment (i.e., cash flow multiples in the mid-single digits and discounts to our view of inherent real estate value). We have been building positions in such companies. We have not been able to justify, however, investing in those companies which we deem to have significant and potentially insurmountable issues. Paradoxically, many of the companies with the largest issues have outperformed as of late. We remain disciplined investors in those companies which we believe are able to provide appropriate above average total return potential without exposing the Fund to excessive downside risk.

Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Foreign Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term growth of capital. The Fund is managed by Rudolph-Riad Younes, CFA Managing Director and Head of International Equity and Richard Pell, Chief Investment and Chief Executive Officer, both of Artio Global Management LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (8.38)% compared to the MSCI All Country World (ex-US) Indexsm(1)(“MSCI ACWI (ex-US)”), which returned 1.03% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: For most of the period under review, markets continued to exhibit tremendous volatility amid what has been one of the most difficult investment climates. However, March and April provided much needed relief for equity investors as the degree of negativity on the news front began to abate. Amid this environment, we have tried to steer the Fund’s holdings from areas we foresaw as the most prone to danger and sought refuge in regions, sectors and companies that we believed would be least affected. However, the Fund underperformed the MSCI ACWI (ex-US) as market sentiment began to reward less defensive positioning.
The factors explaining the level of underperformance are largely due to the Fund’s positioning within emerging markets and Continental Europe. During March and April, investors began to move toward “risky assets” which included emerging markets as well as more troubled sectors such as financials within developed markets. Due to its more defensive stance, the Fund did not participate as fully as the markets recovered toward the end of the period. Additionally, the position held in cash equivalents was a drag on results as was the Fund’s underweight to the Japanese yen during part of the review period.
Beginning with emerging markets, the underweight to Asia and Latin America, particularly Brazil, negatively impacted results as these areas outperformed. In addition, although the Fund’s allocation to Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic was much lower than in previous periods, we were nonetheless negatively impacted as companies in this region felt the impact of the global credit crunch. Specifically, Komercni Banka A/S (Czech Republic), Powszechna Kasa Oszczednosci Bank Polski SA and Bank Polska Kasa Opieki (Poland) and OTP Bank Nyrt GDR (Hungary) underperformed.
In Continental Europe, the underweight to financials had a negative impact as the sector began to rally in early March as sentiment began to shift. Also, stock selection within energy detracted as did the overweight to consumer staples. In addition, stock selection within industrials and telecoms detracted. Within energy, Royal Dutch Shell PLC ADR, ENI S.p.A. ADR (Italy) and Total SA ADR (France) underperformed. Within consumer staples, Nestle SA (Switzerland), Groupe Danone (France) and Unilever PLC (Netherlands) underperformed. Finally, within industrials and telecoms, Siemens AG and Deutsche Telekom AG (Germany) underperformed.
From a positive perspective, the continued underweight to the United Kingdom, particularly within the banking sector helped results. UK financials underperformed over the period, and the Fund’s large avoidance of the sector supported results. The overweight to and stock selection within materials in the UK, Canada and Australia also had a positive impact as more cyclically-oriented sectors began to outperform. Strong performers included Rio Tinto Ltd. (Australia), Xstrata PLC (UK) and Barrick Gold Corp. (Canada).
Current Strategy and Outlook: Although clear challenges remain for global economies and the banking system, we have become more constructive for equities. There are early signs of improvement and valuations in a number of sectors and regions offer attractive opportunities in our view. Recognizing that our defensive posture has not benefited the Fund in recent months, we have taken steps to move closer to the benchmark weighting in the emerging markets as well as in financials. Specifically, we have added to positions in South Korea and Taiwan as well as in Brazil. Within financials, we recognize the visibility of earnings is difficult to assess and have therefore chosen to diversify across a range of companies in the developed markets. In addition, we have been favoring more cyclically-oriented companies with strong underlying fundamentals. Examples include companies involved in metals and mining, construction, airport operators and other industrials.

ING Greater China Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by Nick Toovey, CFA, Bratin Sanyal, Oscar Leung Kin Fai, CFA and Michael Hon Lung Chiu, CFA of ING Investment Management Asia/Pacific (Hong Kong) Limited — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 29.65% compared to the MSCI All Countries Golden Dragon Index(1), which returned 24.01% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Fund benefited from stock selection in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Property related stocks in all three countries performed strongly during the period and the Fund’s overweight contributed to results. Among the top-performing stocks for the period were Taiwan Fertilizer Co., Ltd., Guangzhou R&F Properties Co., Ltd. and Agile Property Holdings Ltd.
To stimulate domestic credit demand, the central government of China has been promoting new bank lending. As a result, system loan growth reached 4.6 trillion renminbi in 1st Quarter 2009, which was a historical high. Despite reporting only 6.1% year-over-year gross domestic product (“GDP”) growth in 1st Quarter 2009, we believe China is expected to report faster growth for the rest of the year thanks to those simulative measures. Leading economic indicators such as the purchasing manager index and money supply growth were also improving, leading recently to GDP forecast upgrades. As a result, the MSCI China Index outperformed the regional markets, as defined by the MSCI All Countries Golden Dragon Index, during the reporting period.
Hong Kong underperformed the regional markets, as defined by the MSCI All Countries Golden Dragon Index, during the period due to continuous deterioration in its economic outlook. Unemployment climbed from a low of 3.5% in October 2008 to 5.2% in March 2009. Retail sales growth suffered as exports declined more than 20% year-over-year in 1st Quarter 2009 — due to the slowdown in Hong Kong’s major trading partners, China and the United States.
Taiwan underperformed the regional markets, as defined by the MSCI All Countries Golden Dragon Index, during the period but was able to gain back some of the lost ground recently thanks to the improvement in political sentiment. China Mobile Ltd. (“China Mobile”), the largest mobile services operator in China, announced in a surprise move its intention to purchase a 12% stake in Far EasTone Telecommunications Co., Ltd. (“Far EasTone”). The deal size is roughly 17.8 billion Taiwanese dollars or about $540 million U.S. dollars, which is an unprecedented transaction and probably the largest investment announced by a Chinese company in Taiwan so far. Following the announcement, several domestic sectors such as banks and properties rose sharply.
Current Strategy and Outlook: The Chinese government’s continuing efforts to stimulate the domestic economy are bearing fruit. New bank lending hit a historical high level in 1st Quarter 2009 while other leading economic indicators such as the purchasing manager index(2) (“PMI”) and M2 growth (a measure of the money supply, calculated at any point in time by adding together the value of cash held by the public, checkable deposits, household savings deposits, small time deposits and money market funds) are also improving. Thanks to an easier credit environment, property and automobiles sales have improved substantially. Although 1st Quarter 2009 GDP growth came in at only 6.1%, which was its slowest pace in the last 10 years, the economy may recover further this year.
The stock market reacted positively and many of the distressed stocks have risen to more normal valuations. Thanks to its strong fiscal position and healthy household sector, we believe the economic outlook and stock market performance of China is still superior to the rest of the world. The Fund’s overweight in China is maintained by focusing on quality companies that we believe are more likely to revise their earnings upward in the second half of 2009.
The improvement of cross-strait relations again came under the spotlight with the historical deal between China Mobile and Far EasTone. We believe sentiment could continue to improve if both sides take a more pragmatic view of promoting economic growth. We believe the longer-term outlook of the Taiwan asset plays remains positive with such improvement. The growth profile of the banking sector is still dismal, however. Its recent run after the China Mobile deal also led to higher valuations, which make the sector less attractive. Taiwan is still heavily geared towards the information technology sector, which, in our opinion, may suffer from the U.S. economic slowdown. Without major new catalysts, we remain cautious on Taiwan and look for better opportunities elsewhere.

ING Index Plus International Equity Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Index Plus International Equity Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to outperform the total return performance of the MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East® Index(1) (“MSCI EAFE® Index”) while maintaining a market level of risk. The Fund is managed by Carl Ghielen, Portfolio Manager and Martin Jansen, Portfolio Manager, both of ING Investment Management Advisors B.V. — the Sub Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (3.47)% compared to the MSCI EAFE® Index, which returned (2.64)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The ING International Index Plus strategy is designed to add value to the MSCI EAFE® Index through bottom-up security selection on the basis of customized sector models while maintaining approximate benchmark weights of regions/countries, sectors and industries represented in the benchmark. The active risk is substantially controlled by the relatively large number of securities in the Fund (between 280 and 380). As a first step, the best ranked 200 stocks are selected for inclusion across countries, sectors and industries. To ensure that appropriate index weights and an index-like profile are maintained, an additional 80-180 of the next most attractive securities are added. The Fund is rebalanced monthly to maintain the desired tilt to stocks ranking well in the individual sectors and industries represented in the benchmark.
The Fund underperformed its benchmark during the period, due mainly to adverse stock selection in Japan. By design, the Fund’s sector and region weights approximate that of the benchmark. While this normally does not add value, the wide inter-regional and inter-sector dispersion that results from our sector and regional positioning had a negative impact during an extraordinarily volatile period. Security selection within regions and sectors also detracted from results.
For each reporting period, the predictive power of the individual factors included in the regional sector models substantially determines the stock selection results in each sector. For this reporting period, the Fund’s positioning in healthcare had the largest negative impact, due largely to a perverse outcome of our model’s valuation factors. Information technology also detracted significantly due to price reversion and price momentum variables. Stock selection in the financials and consumer staples sectors added value due to the successful influence of valuation factors in the respective sector models.
Current Strategy and Outlook: By design, the Fund maintains approximate benchmark weights of the regions, economic sectors and industries constituting MSCI EAFE® Index, and seeks to track the benchmark relatively closely. Stock selection flows from the in-sector/industry ranking models. Portfolio construction and risk control are utilized to ensure the characteristics of the Fund are within an acceptable band around the benchmark. Our most attractively ranked stocks may have individual overweights of up to half a percentage point. Similarly, for risk control purposes the maximum allowable underweight per security is half a percentage point.
Within this context, the Fund currently has a modest tilt towards lower valuation and smaller capitalization stocks and has a resultant modest focus on stocks linked primarily to local economies. The current portfolio of stocks generated an historic earnings growth slightly below that of the index but is expected to meet index earnings growth. It also carries a dividend yield similar to the index, and has comparable return on equity.

ING International Capital Appreciation Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING International Capital Appreciation Fund (the “Fund”) seeks capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by a team of investment professionals led by Thomas R.H. Tibbles, CFA, Barry A. Lockhart, CFA, Trevor Graham, CFA, and Patrick Tan of Hansberger Global Investors, Inc. (“HGI”) — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 5.75% compared to the MSCI All Country World (ex-US) Indexsm(1) (“MSCI ACWI ex-USsm”), which returned 1.03% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The six month period ended April 30, 2009 ended on a positive note with the MSCI ACWI ex-USsm posting a positive return as the markets started to recover from several months of negative performance. During the period, investors began returning to equities and the risk aversion towards emerging markets appeared to start dissipating. Emerging markets was the strongest performing region during the period, followed by the Pacific ex-Japan region and Canada. Europe and Japan were the only regions to post negative returns. Materials, information technology and industrials were the drivers of performance from a sector perspective. Some of the more defensive areas of the markets, such as healthcare, utilities and consumer staples lagged the broad market as investors rotated into more economically sensitive names.
The Fund’s return outperformed the benchmark over the six month period. From a sector attribution perspective, industrials was the largest contributor to relative performance as stocks such as Vestas Wind Systems A/S and China Communications Construction Co., Ltd. enjoyed a period of strong performance. The telecommunication services and energy sectors also contributed to relative performance with stocks such as Iliad SA and Cameco Corp. posting positive returns. Only three sectors detracted from relative performance, led by the consumer discretionary sector. The majority of the relative outperformance in the Fund was driven by stock selection.
From a regional perspective, Europe was the largest contributor on a relative basis with stocks like Autonomy Corp. PLC posting strong gains during the period. The Pacific ex-Japan region was also a relative contributor, driven by a strong return in the stock of Li & Fung Ltd. Agile Property Holdings, Ltd., a Chinese property company, was the best performer in the Fund during the period and contributed to the positive relative performance in emerging markets. Japan was the only region that detracted from relative performance during the period driven by holdings in a Japanese financial company, ORIX Corp., as well as a Japanese electronics retailer, Yamada Denki Co., Ltd.
Current Strategy and Outlook: In our opinion, while the near term pace of economic growth has slowed dramatically, the long term outlook for many economies, especially the emerging markets, is still very much alive. We are still optimistic on China with companies there set to benefit from massive infrastructure spending and government stimulus. Brazil and India are also growing faster than the developed world and we believe can benefit from domestic growth even if the export story continues to slow. Risks remain that growth expectations will not be met; however, we remain cautiously optimistic and positioned for economic growth in emerging markets.
Time will tell how 2009 will eventually play out. This should be a stock pickers market, particularly if we select high quality companies that create their own opportunities. In our opinion, valuations are still attractive for equities versus bonds, central banks have been very accommodating, and the interest rate outlook remains relatively supportive for equities. We anticipate that we may potentially see the beginnings of an economic recovery in late 2009 and into 2010.
We believe maintaining a well-diversified portfolio of high quality international companies could prove beneficial as investors return to equities and risk aversion subsides. We believe that many of the names that will recover first are the high quality, liquid, large-cap companies that we hold in the Fund.

ING International Equity Dividend Fund

(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING International Equity Dividend Fund (the “Fund”) seeks growth of capital with dividend income as a secondary consideration. The Fund is managed by Nicolas Simar, Head of Value/High Dividend, Moudy El Khodr, Senior Investment Manager Equities, and Kris Hermie, CFA, Senior Investment Manager of ING Investment Management Advisors B.V. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (6.50)% compared to the MSCI World ex-US Indexsm(1) (“MSCI World ex-US Indexsm”), which returned (2.37)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Fund’s underperformance for the period was largely attributable to security selection. Asset allocation also detracted from results but to a smaller degree.
The sectors that detracted the most from results were energy, financials and healthcare. Weak stock selection in energy hurt the most. Also detracting significantly were sector allocation and stock selection in materials and financials.
Partially offsetting these detractions were gains from asset allocation and security selection in the consumer discretionary and staples sectors. Ironically, the greatest contribution to relative returns came from not owning Volkswagen AG, which fell dramatically in price.
Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (“Taiwan Semi”), an actual Fund holding, was the second greatest contributor for the period. The company’s long-term fundamentals remain strong and first quarter results were good. Guidance on revenue and margins for next quarter is significantly higher than current consensus expectations.
Other significant contributors to return were UK retailer Kingfisher PLC and Pub operator Greene King PLC (“Greene King”). Greene King’s first-quarter sales were better than expected. Their recent capital increase allows them to reduce their debt and perhaps later on make an acquisition. Among consumer staples, Wesfarmers Ltd. and Delhaize America, Inc. were important contributors to results.
Energy stocks detracted the most from returns for the period. Precision Drilling Trust detracted more than any other energy stock, falling in price due to reduced capital spending by North American oil and gas producers. We sold the Fund’s position after the company discontinued its monthly dividend to focus on its debt reduction program.
Financials were the second worst detractors for the period. Negative macro news such as the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation’s report on banks’ heavier 4th quarter losses than originally reported reverberated through the sector. Despite gains from Banco Santander S.A. and Toronto-Dominion Bank, continuing bad news about the sector led to weakness. Several banks were among the worst detractors for the period: Swedbank AB, BNP Paribas, HSBC Holdings PLC and Aviva PLC.
In materials, UPM-Kymmene OYJ (“UPM”) and Rexam PLC were detractors. UPM’s recession-induced difficulties led to lay-offs, a loss for 4th quarter 2008 and to guidance that paper deliveries will fall further in 2009 as consumer confidence slumps worldwide. The company reduced its dividend after five years of stable payments. Not holding BHP Billiton Ltd. also hurt relative results.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our outlook for the strategy remains positive. We believe investments in quality defensive names potentially may give the Fund downside protection and lower volatility. Under current market conditions, this may help the Fund outperform its benchmark. Regardless of scenario, the Fund seeks to identify sectors or stocks where it may exploit temporary under-valuations to capture unrecognized value.

Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING International Growth Opportunities Fund (the ”Fund”) seeks long-term growth of capital through investment in equity securities and equity equivalents of companies outside the U.S. The Fund is managed by Uri Landesman, Senior Vice President and Head of International Equity, Portfolio Manager of ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 4.12% compared to the MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East® Growth Index(1) (”MSCI EAFE® Growth Index”) which returned (5.22)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: What a difference six months made. October marked the height of the worldwide credit crisis, as investors retreated from risk-taking and sought refuge in short-term U.S. Treasuries. In the following months, a myriad of issues plagued equity investors. Signs of life started to emerge in early March, however, spurred by the moderation of several key economic indicators. Markets rallied significantly, even gaining back the losses incurred since January 1.
We have seen signs of thawing in the credit markets, indications of life in the junk bond market and an affirmation by the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) to keep credit flowing by purchasing $1.25 trillion in mortgage-backed securities and $300 billion in longer-term Treasuries. Similar to the United States, massive stimulus in the system worldwide has been a key catalyst in driving equity returns since early March. Emerging markets in both Latin America and Asia have both outperformed the MSCI EAFE® Growth Index.
The Fund outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE® Growth Index, due to positive security selection and positive sector allocation. The greatest contributor to results was stock selection in energy. The Fund’s overweight coupled with selection in materials also helped results significantly, as did selection within the industrials sector. From a regional perspective, the Fund is overweight to non-benchmark emerging markets coupled with selection in Europe helped performance. The largest performance detractor was stock selection in the information technology sector. Stock selection in Japan also hurt results.
The biggest net contribution to performance came from Rio Tinto PLC (“Rio Tinto”), Bumi Resources Tbk PT (“Bumi Resources”), and Li & Fung Ltd (“Li & Fung”). Rio Tinto saw shares appreciate amidst higher commodity prices. Bumi Resources, Indonesia’s top coal producer, gained late in the period as it reported net profits that beat analyst’s forecasts. Cost efficiency in mining activities benefited the company. Consumer products exporter Li & Fung appreciated during the period upon improved investor and consumer sentiment and increasing orders.
Japan Tobacco, Inc. (“Japan Tobacco”), Nokia Corp. (“Nokia”) and Elpida Memory, Inc. (“Elpida”) were the most significant detractors from results. Japan Tobacco saw shares slump as sluggish domestic sales led to lower profits. Higher reform-related expenses coupled with a fall in the smoking population hurt the firm’s profitability. Nokia saw shares lose value as extensive de-stocking by operators and distributors adversely affected their sales volumes. Elpida Memory was lower amidst weak demand and low prices in the global semiconductor market. The firm posted a 60.9 billion yen ($625.1 million) loss for the three months ended in March.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Although we are seeing signs of life in the credit and stock markets, we remain cautious, as the overall economic footing remains unsure. We firmly believe that stock market volatility will remain elevated. Prospects for future growth have increased because of unprecedented levels of fiscal and monetary stimulus. Against this backdrop, the market is still valued attractively, in our view.
As the credit markets stabilize, the increased availability and usage of credit by both producers and consumers should provide the means by which the economy, particularly in the United States, can recover. Looking forward, we seek to exploit opportunities worldwide.

Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING International Real Estate Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to provide investors with high total return. The Fund is managed by T. Ritson Ferguson, Chief Investment Officer, CFA and Steven D. Burton, Managing Director, CFA of ING Clarion Real Estate Securities L.P. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (10.59)% compared to the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) Developed ex-US Property Index(1) which returned (4.78)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The past six months has proved to be a challenging period for international listed real estate markets as credit market conditions and a slowing global economy continued to provide headwinds to the world’s capital markets. Since hitting a low point during the period, at the beginning of March, property markets have rallied strongly, triggered by the demonstrated ability of property companies to raise capital and repair balance sheets. Investors have reason for greater confidence that capital markets are improving in light of the significant equity and debt capital raised during the last few months.
Fund performance trailed the benchmark during the period, the result of stock selection within the Asia-Pacific region, primarily in Japan and Australia. In Japan, two of the Fund’s largest positions, Mitsubishi Estate Co., Ltd. and Mitsui Fudosan Co., Ltd. were both down on concerns of a slowing global economy. Within Australia, overweights to the underperforming industrial company Goodman Group and mall company Westfield Group were the largest detractors from a relative standpoint. While stock selection in the European region was neutral for the period, stock selection in the U.K. added relative value as did underweight positions in mall company Liberty International PLC as well as industrial company SEGRO PLC helped performance. An overweight to office company Derwent London PLC also helped relative performance as did an overweight to French Pan European mall company, Unibail Rodamco.
Country allocation decisions detracted from relative performance during the period, the result of an underweight to the outperforming Asia-Pacific region, primarily in Hong Kong which was one of the best performing markets. Within the European region, relative performance was slightly negative as an underweight to the outperforming Austrian market more than offset the positive contributions of an overweight to the outperforming French property stocks and underweight to the underperforming U.K. market.
Current Strategy and Outlook: The Fund continues to maintain a core positioning in what we believe are high-quality companies. We remain overweight sectors and geographies offering long-term leases and high percentages of earnings from recurring sources (primarily contract lease rental income). We prefer companies offering more transparency, strong balance sheets and good, experienced management teams. This focus on quality has driven our longer-term outperformance.
Given the bottoming of the markets which occurred in early March, we increasingly see companies which, in our opinion, represent value in this environment (i.e., cash flow multiples in the mid-single digits and discounts to our view of inherent real estate value). We have been building positions in such companies. We have not been able to justify, however, investing in those companies which we deem to have significant and potentially insurmountable issues. Paradoxically, many of the companies with the largest issues have outperformed as of late. We remain disciplined investors in those companies which we believe are able to provide appropriate above average total return potential without exposing the Fund to excessive downside risk.
In our opinion, international property companies remain attractively valued. We estimate the average international property company is trading at a 10% discount to our internal estimate of inherent private real estate market value.

ING International Small Cap Multi-Manager Fund (the “Fund”) seeks maximum long term capital appreciation. The Fund’s assets are managed by three sub-advisers — Acadian Asset Management, LLC (“Acadian”), Batterymarch Financial Management, Inc. (“Batterymarch”) and Schroder Investment Management North America Inc. (“Schroders”). Each manages a portion of the Fund’s assets that is allocated to the sub-adviser. The following individuals are primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of their respective portions of the Fund: John R. Chisholm, CFA, Executive Vice President and Co-Chief Investment Officer, Matthew J. Cohen, CFA, Senior Vice President, Constantine P. Papageorgiou, CFA, Vice President, Brian K. Wolahan, CFA, and Qi R. Zeng, CFA, Senior Vice President, all Portfolio Managers of Acadian*; Charles F. Lovejoy, CFA, Director and Senior Portfolio Manager, Christopher W. Floyd, CFA, Portfolio Manager and Adam J. Petryk, Senior Director and Global Investment Strategist of Batterymarch; Matthew Dobbs, Portfolio Manager of Schroders.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 2.75% compared to the Standard & Poor’s (“S&P) Developed ex-US SmallCap Index (1) and the S&P Euro-Pacific Asia Composite (“EPAC”) SmallCap Index(2), which returned 6.06% and 5.90%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Acadian Sleeve(3) — This has been an extremely volatile period for global equity markets. After a sharp downward slide amid the broadening global credit crisis, sentiment improved. Renewed confidence in the equity asset class spread quickly to smaller-cap stocks, emerging markets and other assets with perceived higher risk. It was a challenging environment for quantitative approaches, however, as many predictive factors including valuation and momentum underperformed. The fund outperformed the S&P Developed ex-US SmallCap Index by approximately 0.40%. Stock selection did not fare well and detracted from active return, particularly in Japan, Australia, Hong Kong and Canada. Active stock selection saw the lowest returns among materials, technology and financial stocks. This was more than offset, however, by successful market weightings, particularly in the emerging markets. The allocations to Taiwan, China, Turkey and Thailand all added value. The fund also gained from overweighting Singapore and Canada and underweighting Spain. Batterymarch Sleeve(3) — Our investment process combines fundamental viewpoints with quantitative implementation. Thus our stock selection model struggled for much of this extremely turbulent period marked by sharp reversals. The stocks that had been the most beaten down prior to the market rebound in early March were the best performing in the subsequent period, and vice versa. In many cases there had been little change in the fundamental outlook for these companies other than stabilization or slight improvement in broad macroeconomic indicators and some thawing of credit markets. In general, these types of stocks have tended to score poorly in our stock selection model due to negative earnings momentum and revisions, poor cash flows and shareholder returns, and weak balance sheets. As a result, stock selection detracted from performance and the fund underperformed the S&P Developed ex-US SmallCap Index by approximately 9.60% on a gross basis. While stock selection was strong in the financials ex banks sector in both continental Europe and the United Kingdom, and in the Japanese healthcare sector, selection in Japan was particularly weak, most notably in the consumer discretionary information technology and industrials sectors. Allocation among the regions and sectors did not add value. Schroders Sleeve(3) — For the six months ended April 30, 2009, the Schroder sleeve outperformed the S&P EPAC SmallCap Index by 2.50%. The period under review has seen a modest recovery in smaller company stocks, and they have outperformed their larger peers. The extreme caution among investors at the turn of the year has been relieved by better than expected economic news and continued aggressive fiscal and monetary measures adopted globally. The fund has outperformed thanks to strong stock selection, most notably in Japan (where the fund’s healthcare and industrial stocks did well) and the United Kingdom (energy, information technology). The fund has also derived added value from the overweight stance in markets such as China, Hong Kong and Singapore.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Acadian Sleeve(3) — Our belief is that high specific-company risk, earnings uncertainty and a clouded macroeconomic outlook will continue to produce high equity market volatility. However, we remain of the view that economic recovery will be visible in 2010 and possibly late in 2009. Equity markets historically have discounted economic recovery in advance, and that pattern is also expected in the current situation. Batterymarch Sleeve(3) — Whether the recent rally is cyclical or secular, we continue to position the fund to benefit from quality long-term stock fundamentals. In the near-term, we believe the challenging market conditions of high volatility and liquidity-driven markets will continue, and we continue to monitor the impact of a slowdown in globalization as countries take more nationalistic economic stances. The fund remains invested in high quality stocks that rank attractively relative to peers. As of April 30, 2009, the fund remained attractively valued versus the S&P Developed ex-US SmallCap Index, with a lower 12 month forward price to earnings (“P/E”) ratio (10.4x vs. 11.4x) and a comparable consensus expected annual earnings per share (“EPS”) growth rate over the next 2 years (7.80% vs. 7.89%). Schroders Sleeve(3) — Global small companies have risen strongly from the low point in early March, and we believe that a period of consolidation is likely. However, we believe that our focus on well-managed companies with strong balance sheets offering visible growth prospects will generate attractive relative returns. We continue to have relatively high weightings in the Pacific ex Japan region as we believe it offers superior prospects for economic and corporate growth. In contrast, we remain underweight the benchmark in Japan and in the United Kingdom. In overall sector terms, we are underweight in consumer cyclicals and financials, and overweight in energy, industrials, information technology and utilities.

ING International Value Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Country Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING International Value Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term capital appreciation. The Fund’s assets are managed by two sub-advisers — Brandes Investment Partners, L.P. (“Brandes”) and ING Investment Management Co. (“ING IM”). Each manages a portion of the Fund’s assets that is allocated to the sub-adviser. The following people are responsible for the day-to-day operations of the Fund: Glenn R. Carlson, CFA, Chief Executive Officer, Brent V. Woods, CFA, Managing Director — Investments, Amelia Maccoun Morris, CFA, Director — Investments, Brent Fredberg, Senior Analyst, W. James Brown, CFA, Director — Investments and Keith Colestock, CFA, Director — Investments, comprise the voting members of Brandes’ Large Cap Investment Committee; Philip Schwartz is the Portfolio Manager for ING IM.
Performance: For six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (1.31)% compared to the MSCI Europe, Australasia and Far East® Index (“MSCI EAFE® Index”)(1), which returned (2.64)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Brandes Sleeve(2) — Advances for holdings in the communications equipment and specialty retail industries had a positive impact upon returns. Top performers within these industries included Ericsson and Kingfisher. Gains for positions in the multiline retail and semiconductors & semiconductor equipment industries also helped performance for the six-month period ending April 30, 2009. Conversely, weakening share prices for positions in the commercial banks and pharmaceuticals industries, such as HSBC Holdings PLC, Royal Bank of Scotland Group PLC, and GlaxoSmithKline PLC, proved unfavorable to performance.
Among countries, holdings based in Brazil experienced notable gains during the period. Within this country, some of the top performers included Tele Norte Leste Participações SA ADR and Centrais Eletricas Brasileiras SA ADR. Share price declines for businesses domiciled in Japan and Germany weighed on performance results, including Aiful Corp. and Deutsche Telekom AG.
Relative to the index, stock selection in the diversified telecommunication services, pharmaceuticals, and electric utilities industries made positive contributions. Conversely, the fund’s holdings in the semiconductors & semiconductor equipment industry did not perform as well as the industry as a whole, which detracted from relative performance. Among countries, stock selection of securities based in the United Kingdom and Portugal helped relative returns, while stock selection for German-based securities was unfavorable to relative performance. While the MSCI EAFE® Index has no exposure to Brazil, gains for the fund’s holdings in this country provided a positive contribution to performance. As a reminder, country and industry exposures are the result of our individual security selection — not top-down industry forecasts. As of April 30, 2009, the most substantial weightings for the Fund were in Japan and the United Kingdom, and in the diversified telecommunication services and commercial banks industries. Fund weightings are the result of individual stock selection. IIM Sleeve(2) — What a difference six months made. October marked the height of the worldwide credit crisis, as investors retreated from risk-taking and sought refuge in short-term U.S. Treasuries. In the following months, a myriad of issues plagued equity investors. Signs of life started to emerge in early March, however, spurred by the moderation of several key economic indicators. Markets rallied significantly, even gaining back the losses incurred since January 1. We have seen signs of thawing in the credit markets, indications of life in the junk bond market and an affirmation by the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) to keep credit flowing by purchasing $1.25 trillion in mortgage-backed securities and $300 billion in longer-term Treasuries. Similar to the United States, massive stimulus in the system worldwide has been a key catalyst in driving equity returns since early March. Emerging markets in both Latin America and Asia have outperformed the MSCI EAFE® Index.
The fund underperformed its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE® Index, mainly due to stock selection in Europe. The fund’s exposure to non-benchmark North America helped results. Security selection in materials, industrials and telecommunications detracted from results. An underweight in financials also significantly detracted from performance. Financials were volatile during the period and our overweight during the first four months when financials were weak, coupled with an underweight during the final two months when financials rallied, detracted from the result. Selection among information technology stocks proved beneficial, as did an underweight coupled with selection in health care.
The biggest net contribution to performance came from Deutsche Bank AG (“Deutsche Bank”), Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. (“Hon Hai”) and BMW AG (“BMW”). Deutsche Bank rose on the expected return of investment banking business and better than expected results. Hon Hai was up on improving demand in the consumer electronics marketplace and due to Taiwan’s improving relations with China. BMW was higher on better than expected results and hopes for a turnaround in auto demand. Significant detractors included AXA S.A. (“AXA”), Daiwa Securities Group, Inc. (“Daiwa”) and ENI S.p.A ADR (“ENI”). AXA is a high beta stock, which means its price movements up or down should be to greater than the overall market. We sold this position when expectations were extremely poor. Daiwa was lower during the period as disappointing results coupled with a weak Japanese financial market hurt performance. ENI slid on news of a possible need for a large capital increase.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Brandes Sleeve(2) — While we monitor short-term events in international equity markets, our investment philosophy focuses on company-by-company analysis. We take a long-term perspective and believe that none or very little of the short-term “market news” provides useful information to investors. IIM Sleeve(2) — Our outlook for equity markets over the next 12 months is positive. We believe investor sentiment reached a turning point in March when economic perceptions shifted away from a depression scenario towards more familiar recession. Intense fear had pushed stock valuations to within 20% of the extremes seen in the last century. That backdrop provided the conditions for the 30% rally just seen, and we believe, gives solid underpinning for further gains. Still, we will need to see more evidence of recovery in the global economy. In a world of 0% money and trillion-dollar stimulus packages, and not just in the United States, we believe the recovery process is underway. Credit markets indicate greater risk-acceptance and we think it’s only a matter of time before housing markets bottom out. In our view, markets are now again doing their usual job of signaling expected better times ahead.

ING International Value Choice Fund

(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING International Value Choice Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long term capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by Paul J. Hechmer, Portfolio Manager of Tradewinds Global Investors, LLC — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 7.59% compared to the MSCI Europe, Australasia, Far East® Index(1) (“MSCI EAFE® Index”), which returned (2.64)% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The Fund posted a positive return for the six month period ending April 30, 2009 and outperformed its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE® Index, which declined over that same period.
The materials sector was by far the greatest contributor to absolute and relative returns this quarter. Both the overweight position in the sector, as well as the stock selection therein, combined to produce a large contribution. Within the sector, the gold companies were the largest standouts as the price of gold increased over the period. The portfolio’s South African gold holdings were further buoyed by the strengthening Rand. Conversely, the single largest individual detractor from performance for both the sector and the overall portfolio was Stora Enso OYJ (“Stora Enso”), the Finnish paper company that primarily produces publication and fine papers, packaging boards, and wood products. As economies around the world fell deeper into recession, demand for paper products collapsed, causing the stock price of Stora Enso and most other paper companies to decline significantly.
The information technology sector was the second largest absolute contributor to performance. The Fund has an overweight position in the sector, and the holdings therein outperformed the benchmark. The greatest overall contributors were Mabuchi Motor Co., Ltd. (“Mabuchi”) and Gemalto NV (“Gemalto”) of France. Though Mabuchi came under pressure at the start of the period along with other auto related companies, it rallied back with the overall market. Gemalto is a market leader and the largest global manufacturer of smart cards used in mobile telephones, financial cards, and security/ID devices and recently completed a restructuring plan.
The largest detractors from relative performance, from a sector perspective, were the industrial and consumer staples sectors. Though the Fund’s industrial holdings had positive contributors to absolute performance, the benchmark’s return for the sector outperformed that of the portfolio on a relative basis. Seven & I Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Seven & I Holdings”) and Coca-Cola West Holdings Co., Ltd. (“Coca-Cola West”), both Japanese consumer staples companies, were some of the larger individual detractors from overall performance. Seven & I Holdings operates retail stores, mainly convenience stores, supermarkets and restaurants in several countries, and Coca-Cola West is the largest Coke bottler in Japan. As with many companies, stock prices for Seven & I Holdings and Coca-Cola West came under pressure during the period on concerns regarding the global economic downturn.
From a regional perspective, the Fund’s overweight position in Japan and South Africa significantly aided relative returns. The Fund’s South African exposure is dominated by holdings in gold companies, while its Japanese holdings are invested across several sectors. At the other end of the spectrum, the Fund’s exposure to Finland was a large detractor from performance, mainly due to Stora Enso, which as mentioned previously came under pressure with the downturn in the economy and consequent decline in demand for paper products.
Current Strategy and Outlook: We do not know if equity markets bottomed in March of 2009 — only time will tell us that. What we do believe is that if one is investing for the long term, it is likely that equity markets offer the best upside of almost any asset class. Utilizing our team of global sector specialists, we continue to find what we believe to be good opportunities in many areas internationally. We have recently been adding to our consumer staples and healthcare exposure while trimming some of the strongly performing materials and technology names. We maintain significant exposure to materials and continue to be overweight Japan. Our underweight to the financials sector remains, and we continue to struggle to find many compelling opportunities in this area, but when we do, we will be willing to buy. For the patient long term investor, we believe that this is a good time to buy strong companies at attractive valuations.

(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Russia Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term capital appreciation through investment primarily in equity securities of Russian companies. The Fund is managed by Jan-Wim Derks and Gus Robertson, Portfolio Managers*, of ING Investment Management Advisors, B.V. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 2.93% compared to the MSCI Emerging Markets (“MSCI EM”) Indexsm(1) and the Russian Trading System (“RTS”) Index(2), which returned 17.38% and 7.77%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: Russian equities were one of the wildest roller coaster rides amongst global equity markets in the last six months. After losing more than three quarters of its value (from peak to trough) the Russian market endured particularly volatile action in late 2008 and early 2009 — including three double-digit percentage-point rallies — before the RTS Index reached its low point of 498 on January 23, 2009 after falling from almost 2,500 at its peak in May 2008. From its low point, the RTS Index had risen more than 66% by the end of the period.
The Fund’s underperformance for the reporting period was due to stock selection, primarily in the materials and utilities sectors. Toward the end of 2008, it seemed that Russia needed to allow its currency to devalue. We saw this as an opportunity to increase Fund exposure to export sectors. The Fund added to its positions in the energy sector and selectively to materials, which hurt results for the period.
Stock selection among energy and financials sectors contributed to results. Despite the poor outlook for the ruble at the time, the Fund did not sell out of its domestic exposure. We believed the companies that the Fund holds would be in a position to gain from the economic difficulty by acquiring weaker competitors.
Between November 2008 and February 2009 the ruble lost a third of its value against its dual currency trading basket (55% U.S. dollar and 45% euro), while the Central Bank of Russia followed its course of gradual currency weakening. Despite the negative impact it was to have on the Central Bank’s foreign currency reserves, the authorities did not believe they could handle the potential political fall-out of a sudden devaluation, as happened in 1998. For better or worse, this was the first example of successful, gradual currency depreciation in emerging markets history.
While the Fund kept a cautious stance toward the financial sector throughout the period, it made only moderate changes to other sectors and trading activity was light. The domestic stocks the Fund held generally benefited performance. Discount food retailer Magnit OAO was the biggest contributor — the stock was among the Fund’s largest overweight positions during the period.
As oil prices have risen, there has been a return of risk appetite among global investors and riskier assets have outperformed less-risky assets. This has helped Russia, seen as a riskier equity market than most of its emerging market peers. Within Russia, it has helped stocks of highly leveraged companies relative to their less-leveraged peers.
Current Outlook and Strategy: We have a balanced outlook on the Russian market. In our opinion, the external environment is positive with risk appetite, and commodity prices having recently turned up from depressed levels. Even following the sharp recovery since January lows, we believe Russian equity valuations, in general, remain attractive relative to their own history and their emerging market peers. From these levels however, the valuation in itself is not likely to act as a significant further catalyst for a short term re-rating without a corresponding increase in underlying earnings.
In the meantime, Russia’s economy continues to face headwinds such as inflation, rising unemployment and contracting industrial output. It is difficult to build a case for significant improvements in corporate earnings in the near term; over the long term, however, there remains significant potential for corporate earnings improvements.
We are paying particular attention to developments in the materials and financials sectors, where we think significant balance sheet and cyclical risk remains. Elsewhere, the Fund sticks to its key, stock-level over-weights, where we see better quality balance sheets, management teams, corporate governance and earnings visibility.

ING Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund (the “Fund”) seeks to maximize total return. The Fund is managed by Gorky Urquieta, Senior Investment Manager and Daniel Eustaquio, Senior Portfolio Manager, of ING Investment Management Advisors, B.V. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 17.45% compared to the JPMorgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global Diversified (Hard Currency)(1) (“JPMorgan EMB Index Global Diversified”), the JPMorgan Government Bond Index Emerging Markets-Global Diversified(2) (“JPMorgan GB Index EM-Global Diversified”) and a composite index consisting of 50% JPMorgan EMB Index Global Diversified and 50% JPMorgan GB Index EM-Global Diversified, which returned 21.27%, 12.79% and 17.03%, respectively, for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The global economy is in the midst of the deepest recession in decades. During the period, de-leveraging continued to exacerbate volatility in almost all asset classes, and fixed income was not immune. Central banks around the world cut interest rates to unprecedented levels. Global asset markets began to recover in the first months of 2009. Public sector and multilateral aid packages, quantitative easing programs, toxic asset liquidation programs, improving technical factors and the notion that some emerging market names and currencies had become oversold benefited the asset class. Strong equity markets and higher commodity prices added further support. Recoveries were particularly strong in Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Georgia and Russia.
The Fund lagged the composite benchmark in the early part of the reporting period, mainly because of its exposure to Russian government-related corporate bonds such as OAO Gazprom ADR and Transneft. Performance improved in the latter part of the period, mainly due to overweights in higher-risk countries such as Russia, Venezuela, Kazakhstan, Iraq, Pakistan and the Dominican Republic. Security selection in Russia, Argentina, Mexico and Indonesia also helped results. Underweights in Mexico, China and Colombia also added to performance. The Fund lost value with an underweight position in Argentina. Instrument selection in Ukraine, Iraq and Kazakhstan as well as an over-weight position in Brazil detracted from performance. The Fund benefited from trades in the Korean won and duration positions in higher real interest rate environments as inflationary expectations moderated.
Current Strategy and Outlook: Our overall negative outlook on the asset class has not changed materially, although we have become a bit more positive. From a fundamental perspective, we believe emerging market debt offers value. We believe the environment of U.S. interest rates is supportive for the asset class, as are investor positioning and risk appetite. Volatility is declining steadily, and we think investors have factored recession scenarios into prices. Liquidity appears to be coming back gradually to the market, as evidenced by lower spreads between Treasuries and interbank rates. Still, it is difficult to assess the downside risks that may lie ahead. In our opinion, emerging market debt in hard currency (dollars and euros) is likely to remain volatile in the months ahead, along with financial markets in general.

Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Global Bond Fund (the ”Fund”) seeks to maximize total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation. The Fund is managed by Chris Diaz and Mike Mata, Portfolio Managers*, of ING Investment Management Co. — the Sub-Adviser.
Performance: For the six months ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of 9.07% compared to the Barclays Capital Global Aggregate Index(1) (the ”Index”), which returned 6.68% for the same period.
Portfolio Specifics: The global economy is in the midst of the deepest recession in decades. During the period, global de-leveraging continued to exacerbate volatility in almost all asset classes, and fixed income was not immune. Uncertainty and risk aversion remained elevated. Central banks around the world cut interest rates to unprecedented levels.
In the first months of 2009, there were signs of stabilization, albeit at low and still declining levels. The U.S. government passed a stimulus package totaling $820 billion, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Federal Reserve Board (the “Fed”) introduced a myriad of programs designed to jump start the waning credit markets and deal with the “toxic assets” weighing on bank balance sheets.
Purchases of agency debt and residential mortgage-backed securities by the Fed resulted in lower conforming mortgage rates and a spike in refinancing. Equities around the world rallied, junk bonds and other once-frozen securities showed dramatic improvement in March and April.
In the government bond markets, there was tension between increased supply to fund stimulus spending and weak fundamentals. The pressure of increased supply eventually caused higher yields on U.S. Treasuries and UK Gilts.
The Fund outperformed its benchmark for the period, mainly because of its overweight exposure to interest rates in various global markets, specifically expressed in Germany, the UK and Canada and the Fund outperformed as government bonds rallied. During the period, the Fund was positioned for and benefited from changes in global yield curves, including Germany, Canada, the UK and Australia. Other significant contributors to results were off-index positions in Brazilian and Mexican debt. As the impact of the global recession and credit crisis made its way to the emerging economies, their central banks began cutting rates and yields fell.
In January, the Fund had an overweight exposure to the U.S. dollar and underweight positions in the New Zealand dollar and the euro,which helped results. A long position in the Australian dollar in the first quarter detracted from results. We positioned the Fund for emerging market weakness as it became apparent that the global crisis would be felt in those economies. The Fund benefited from short exposure to the Polish zloty and the Russian ruble.
Exposure to collateralized mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”) detracted significantly from results for the period. The Fund was overweight as CMBS sustained heavy losses in November.
We started a corporate bond position in October 2008. By late November this position became an overweight, mainly of industrials, and detracted from performance. As the stimulus of first-quarter 2009 began to reopen the credit markets, the Fund benefited from its overweight in corporate bonds.
Current Strategy and Outlook: While some data points have surprised to the upside recently, we believe we are still in the midst of the worst recession in post-war history. We expect lower yields for an extended period of time as deflation becomes the main concern. With the significant drop in global industrial production, capacity utilization rates continue to decline. This means manufacturers are operating with plenty of economic slack, which will no doubt place downward pressure on goods prices. This is a bad sign for corporate profits and signals further deflationary risk to the U.S. and global economy.
With unemployment still rapidly rising and incomes declining, the massive de-levering of the world continues. Savings rates are going up, which means spending is going down. We believe this will only prolong the recovery in the United States. The massive stimulus packages, mostly in the U.S., China and Japan, are attempting to increase spending by putting extra money in consumers’ pockets. Also critical is the extent to which credit is available to consumers. While the government programs attempt to thaw the credit markets and instill confidence in lenders, the effects still remain to be seen.
The Fund is currently overweight high quality emerging market debt and currency. It is also underweighting the U.S. dollar, as the United States’ fiscal situation continues to deteriorate relative to most other major economies. We expect to add some high-quality, non-agency mortgages and high yield bonds.

ING Diversified International Fund
Portfolio Managers’ Report
Asset Allocation
as of April 30, 2009
(as a percent of net assets)
Portfolio holdings are subject to change daily.
ING Diversified International Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long term growth of capital. The Fund invests in a combination of other ING Funds (“Underlying Funds”) according to target allocations determined by ING Investments, LLC. The Fund is managed by ING Investments, LLC, under the guidance of an Asset Allocation Committee.(1)
Portfolio Specifics: The Fund’s approximate target investment allocations (expressed as a percentage of its net assets) among the asset classes in which the Fund invests in are set out below. As these are target allocations, the actual allocations of the Fund’s assets may deviate from the percentages shown.
Assets will be allocated among the Underlying Funds and markets based on judgments made by ING Investments, LLC. The performance of the Fund reflects the performance of the Underlying Funds in which it invests and the weightings of the Fund’s assets in each Underlying Fund.
There is a risk that the Fund may allocate assets to an Underlying Fund or market that underperforms other asset classes. The Fund may be underweighted in assets or a market that is experiencing significant returns (or relative out performance) or overweighted in assets or a market with significant declines (or relative under performance).
The Investment Review Committee allocates the Fund’s assets among the Underlying Funds based on advice from ING Investment Management Co., a consultant to the Asset Allocation Committee.
Performance: For the six month period ended April 30, 2009, the Fund’s Class A shares, excluding sales charges, provided a total return of (0.93)% compared to the MSCI All Country World Indexsm (ex-US)(2) (“MSCI ACWI (ex-US)”) which returned 1.03% for the same period.
The Fund’s underperformance relative to its benchmark is related to the performance of the Underlying Funds and the weightings in the Underlying Funds relative to that of their strategic benchmarks. The greatest detractor for the period came from ING Foreign Fund. Additionally, ING Emerging Countries Fund, ING International Small Cap Multi-Manager Fund, ING Index Plus International Equity Fund, ING International Equity Dividend Fund and ING International Real Estate Fund all underperformed their respective strategic benchmarks for the period. These negative results were partially offset by the collective positive relative performance of ING International Value Choice Fund, ING Capital Appreciation Fund and ING International Growth Opportunities Fund.
Small cap was a relatively strong performing asset class, trailing only emerging markets. As a non-benchmark holding, its inclusion in the Fund added to relative performance. On the other hand, real estate saw negative absolute returns, but outperformed large growth.
Current Strategy and Outlook: All the major developed economies are now formally in a recession, which could prove to be the most severe since the 1930s. With this as a backdrop, the global outlook for equities remains problematic and is largely contingent on the stabilization of the global financial sector, unfreezing the currently dysfunctional credit markets and containment of the damage this has inflicted on the global economy. While recent economic indicators are marginally less negative, the global economy remains under intense pressure and sentiment is fragile, which in turn should cap the market’s potential in coming months.
Massive monetary and fiscal support are so far providing a safety net, and a catalyst in some cases, for equity markets around the world. However, sentiment remains weak and volatility is expected to remain high in the months ahead. Given this scenario, we believe a strategy with an emphasis on diversification should be able to navigate markets that will remain unusually volatile.
We made a tactical move during the period, reversing the Fund’s underweight to small cap and corresponding overweight to large cap core. Small cap has greater exposure to local markets, which initially led to the underweight. In the context of a global recovery, we believe small cap should perform relatively well. Near the end of the period, the Fund was neutral to our strategic asset allocations for each asset class.

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, redemption fees, and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses. These Examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The Examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2008 to April 30, 2009. The Funds’ expenses are shown without the imposition of any sales charges or fees. Expenses would have been higher if such charges were included.
Actual Expenses
The first section of the table shown, “Actual Fund Return,” provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, 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 section under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second section of the table shown, “Hypothetical (5% return before expenses),” 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 each 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 (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the hypothetical lines of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1) | | Total return is calculated assuming reinvestment of all dividends, return of capital (if any) and capital gain distributions at net asset value and excluding the deduction of sales charges. Total return for periods less than one year is not annualized. |
|
(2) | | Annualized for periods less than one year. |
|
(3) | | Expense ratios reflect operating expenses of a Fund. Expenses before reductions do not reflect amounts reimbursed by the Investment Adviser and/or Distributor or reductions from brokerage service arrangements or other expense offset arrangements and do not represent the amount paid by a Fund during periods when reimbursements or reductions occur. Expenses net of fee waivers reflect expenses after reimbursement by the Investment Adviser and/or Distributor but prior to reductions from brokerage commission recapture arrangements or other expense offset arrangements. Expenses net of all reductions represent the net expenses paid by a Fund. |

(b) | | Effective November 1, 2004, the Fund adopted a policy to reduce cost of investments for financial statement purposes by the distributions received in excess of income from Real Estate Investment Trusts. The effect of this change for the twelve months ended October 31, 2005 was to decrease the net investment income per share by $0.12 for Class A, $0.10 for Class B, $0.11 for Class C and $0.30 for Class I, increase net realized and unrealized gain on investments per share by $0.12 for Class A, $0.10 for Class B, $0.11 for Class C and $0.30 for Class I and decrease the ratio of net investment income to average net assets from 2.31% to 1.58% for Class A, 1.51% to 0.79% for Class B, 1.51% to 0.78% for Class C and 2.60% to 0.85% for Class I. |
|
(c) | | In 2004, 0.06% for Class A, 0.06% for Class B, 0.06% for Class C and 0.06% for Class Q of the total return consists of a gain on the disposition of an investment not meeting the Fund’s investment restrictions. Excluding this item, total return would have been 12.52% for Class A, 11.72% for Class B, 11.70% for Class C and 12.64% for Class Q. |
|
(d) | | In 2005, 0.26% for Class A, 0.26% for Class B, 0.27% for Class C and 0.25% for Class Q of the total return consists of a payment by affiliate. Excluding this item, total return would have been 21.50% for Class A, 20.61% for Class B, 20.56% for Class C and 21.64% for Class Q. |

(e) | | In 2005, 0.10% of the total return on Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I and Class Q consists of a payment by affiliate. Excluding this item, total return would have been 13.20%, 12.31%, 12.36%, 13.63% and 13.31% for Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I and Class Q, respectively. |
|
(f) | | In 2004, the Sub-Adviser fully reimbursed the Fund for a loss incurred from a transaction not meeting the Fund’s investment guidelines, which otherwise would have reduced total return by 0.07%. |
|
(g) | | In 2005, 0.34% for Class A, 0.33% for Class B, 0.36% for Class C and Class Q of the total return consists of payment by affiliate. Excluding this item, total return would have been 28.63%, 27.82%, 27.80% and 28.96% on Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Q, respectively. |

|
(i) | | Excluding a payment by affiliate in 2008, International Growth Opportunities total return would have been 3.78%, 3.42%, 3.41%, 4.22% and 4.04% on Classes A, B, C, I and Q, respectively. |
|
(j) | | Excluding a payment by affiliate in 2008, International SmallCap Multi-Manager total return would have been 2.43%, 1.96%, 2.11%, 2.73%, 2.55%, 2.63% and 2.73% for Classes A, B, C, I, O, Q and W, respectively. |

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION
Organization. The ING Funds included in this report are comprised of ING Mutual Funds (“IMF”) and ING Mayflower Trust (“IMT”) (each a “Registrant” and collectively, the “Registrants”); both are organized as open-end investment management companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”).
IMF is a Delaware statutory trust organized December 18, 1992 with twenty-one separate active series, all of which are included in this report, (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “IMF Funds”): ING Global Equity Dividend Fund (“Global Equity Dividend”), ING Global Natural Resources Fund (“Global Natural Resources”), ING Global Real Estate Fund (“Global Real Estate”), ING Global Value Choice Fund (“Global Value Choice”), ING Asia-Pacific Real Estate Fund (Asia-Pacific Real Estate), ING Disciplined International SmallCap Fund (“Disciplined International SmallCap”), ING Emerging Countries Fund (“Emerging Countries”), ING European Real Estate Fund (“European Real Estate”), ING Foreign Fund (“Foreign”), ING Greater China Fund (“Greater China”), ING Index Plus International Equity Fund (“Index Plus International Equity”), ING International Capital Appreciation Fund (“International Capital Appreciation”), ING International Equity Dividend Fund (“International Equity Dividend”), ING International Growth Opportunities Fund (“International Growth Opportunities”), ING International Real Estate Fund (“International Real Estate”), ING International SmallCap Multi-Manager Fund (“International SmallCap Multi-Manager”), ING International Value Choice Fund (“International Value Choice”), ING Russia Fund (“Russia”), ING Emerging Markets Fixed Income Fund (“Emerging Markets Fixed Income”), ING Global Bond Fund (“Global Bond”) and ING Diversified International Fund (“Diversified International”). IMT is a Massachusetts business trust organized August 18, 1993 with one series, ING International Value Fund (“International Value”) (a “Fund” and together with the IMF Funds, the “Funds”). The investment objective of each Fund is described in the Funds’ prospectuses, each dated February 27, 2009.
Each Fund offers at least one or more of the following classes of shares: Class A, Class B, Class C, Class I, Class O, Class Q, Class R and Class W. The separate classes of shares differ principally in the applicable sales charges (if any), distribution fees and shareholder servicing fees and transfer agent fees. Generally, shareholders of each class also bear certain expenses that pertain to that particular class. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund and earn income and realized gains/losses from the portfolio pro rata based on the average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Common expenses of the Funds (including custodial asset-based fees, legal and audit fees, printing and mailing expenses, transfer agency out-of-pocket expenses, and fees and expenses of the independent trustees) are allocated to each Fund in proportion to its average net assets. Expenses directly attributable to a particular fund (including advisory, administration, custodial transaction-based, registration, other professional, distribution and/or service fees, certain taxes, and offering costs) are charged directly to that Fund. Differences in per share dividend rates generally result from the differences in separate class expenses, including distribution and shareholder servicing fees. Class B shares, along with their pro rata reinvested dividend shares, automatically convert to Class A shares eight years after purchase.
Emerging Countries does not impose any front-end sales charge (load) on purchases of Class A shares of Emerging Countries by its former Class M shareholders for the life of their account.
Diversified International seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in other Underlying Funds and uses asset allocation strategies to determine how much to invest in the Underlying Funds.
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following significant accounting policies are consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements, and such policies are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies.
| |
A. | Security Valuation. For all Funds except Russia and Diversified International, investments in equity securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last reported sale price. Securities reported by National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) will be valued at the NASDAQ official closing prices. Securities traded on an exchange or NASDAQ for which there has been no sale, securities traded in the over-the-counter-market, gold and silver bullion, platinum and palladium are valued at the mean between the last reported |
73
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
| |
| bid and ask prices. All investments quoted in foreign currencies will be valued daily in U.S. dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange rates prevailing at that time. Debt securities are valued at prices obtained from independent services or from one or more dealers making markets in the securities and may be adjusted based on the Funds’ valuation procedures. U.S. government obligations are valued by using market quotations or independent pricing services that use prices provided by market-makers or estimates of market values obtained from yield data relating to instruments or securities with similar characteristics. |
Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available (which may include certain restricted securities which are subject to limitations as to their sale) are valued at their fair values, as defined by the 1940 Act, and as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the Funds’ Board in accordance with methods that are specifically authorized by the Board. Securities traded on exchanges, including foreign exchanges, which close earlier than the time that a Fund calculates its next net asset value (“NAV”) may also be valued at their fair values, as defined by the 1940 Act, and as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of a Fund’s Board, in accordance with methods that are specifically authorized by the Board. The valuation techniques applied in any specific instance are likely to vary from case to case. With respect to a restricted security, for example, consideration is generally given to the cost of the investment, the market value of any unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of valuation, the potential expiration of restrictions on the security, the existence of any registration rights, the costs to a Fund related to registration of the security, as well as factors relevant to the issuer itself. Consideration may also be given to the price and extent of any public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable companies’ securities.
For all Funds the value of a foreign security traded on an exchange outside the United States is generally based on its price on the principal foreign exchange where it trades as of the time a Fund determines its NAV or if the foreign exchange closes prior to the time the Fund determines its NAV, the most recent closing price of the foreign security on its principal exchange. Trading in certain non-U.S. securities may not take place on all days on which the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open. Further, trading takes place in various foreign markets on days on which the NYSE is not open. Consequently, the calculation of a Fund’s NAV may not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of securities held by a Fund in foreign securities markets. Further, the value of a Fund’s assets may be significantly affected by foreign trading on days when a shareholder cannot purchase or redeem shares of the Fund. In calculating a Fund’s NAV, foreign securities in foreign currency are converted to U.S. dollar equivalents.
If an event occurs after the time at which the market for foreign securities held by a Fund closes but before the time that a Fund’s next NAV is calculated, such event may cause the closing price on the foreign exchange to not represent a readily available reliable market value quotation for such securities at the time a Fund determines its NAV. In such a case, a Fund will use the fair value of such securities as determined under the Funds’ valuation procedures. Events after the close of trading on a foreign market that could require a Fund to fair value some or all of its foreign securities include, among others, securities trading in the U.S. and other markets, corporate announcements, natural and other disasters, and political and other events. Among other elements of analysis in the determination of a security’s fair value, the Board has authorized the use of one or more independent research services to assist with such determinations. An independent research service may use statistical analyses and quantitative models to help determine fair value as of the time a Fund calculates its NAV. There can be no assurance that such models accurately reflect the behavior of the applicable markets or the effect of the behavior of such markets on the fair value of securities, or that such markets will continue to behave in a fashion that is consistent with such models. Unlike the closing price of a security on an exchange, fair value determinations employ elements of judgment. Consequently, the fair value assigned to a security may not represent the actual value that a Fund could obtain if it were to sell the security at the time of the
74
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
close of the NYSE. Pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board, a Fund is not obligated to use the fair valuations suggested by any research service, and valuation recommendations provided by such research services may be overridden if other events have occurred or if other fair valuations are determined in good faith to be more accurate. Unless an event is such that it causes a Fund to determine that the closing prices for one or more securities do not represent readily available reliable market value quotations at the time a Fund determines its NAV, events that occur between the time of the close of the foreign market on which they are traded and the close of regular trading on the NYSE will not be reflected in a Fund’s NAV. Investments in securities maturing in 60 days or less from the date of acquisition are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value.
For the Russia Fund, the valuation procedures for Russian equity securities are to price local shares according to the most recent available bid prices. If securities are not listed on the Russian Trade System (the “RTS”) or on any other pricing service that lists available bid quotes, then the mean of at least two broker bid quotes is used. For equity securities of an issuer in Russia for which there are no readily available reliable market value quotations, the following benchmark pricing procedure shall apply on any day on which the largest securities exchange in Russia declines by 2.5% or more; the price of the security shall be adjusted by the amount of the downward change in a composite of the other companies that are publicly traded in the same sector as the issuer, if ascertainable, and if not ascertainable, by the amount of downward change in the RTS.
For Diversified International and other Funds with holdings in open end investment companies, the valuations of the Funds’ investments in Underlying Funds are based on the NAVs of the Underlying Funds each business day. In general, assets of the Underlying Funds are valued based on actual or estimated market value, with special provisions for assets not having readily available market quotations and short-term debt securities, and for situations where market quotations are deemed unreliable. Investments in securities maturing in 60 days or less from the date of acquisition are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value. Securities prices may be obtained from automated pricing services. Shares of investment companies held by the Underlying Funds will generally be valued at the latest NAV reported by that investment company.
Effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”, establishes a hierarchy for measuring fair value of assets and liabilities. As required by the standard, each investment asset or liability of the Funds is assigned a level at measurement date based on the significance and source of the inputs to its valuation. Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities are classified as “Level 1”, inputs other than quoted prices for an asset that are observable are classified as “Level 2” and unobservable inputs, including the adviser’s or sub-adviser’s judgment about the assumptions that a market participant would use in pricing an asset or liability are classified as “Level 3”. The inputs used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risks associated with investing in those securities. A table summarizing the Funds’ investments under these levels of classification is included following the Portfolios of Investments.
Effective for fiscal years and interim periods ending after November 15, 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) No. FAS 133-1 and FASB Interpretation Number (“FIN”) 45-4, “Disclosures about Credit Derivatives and Certain Guarantees: An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 and FASB Interpretation No. 45; and Clarification of the Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 161.” The amendments to FAS 133 require enhanced disclosure regarding credit derivatives sold, including (1) the nature and terms of the credit derivative, reasons for entering into the credit derivative, the events or circumstances that would require the seller to perform under the credit derivative, and the current status of the payment/performance risk of the credit derivative, (2) the maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) the seller could be required to make under the credit derivative, (3) the fair value of the credit derivative, and (4) the nature of any recourse provisions and assets held either as collateral or by third parties. The amendments to FIN 45 require additional
75
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
disclosures about the current status of the payment/performance risk of a guarantee. All changes to accounting policies have been made in accordance with the FSP and incorporated for the current period as part of the Notes to Financial Statements and Portfolio of Investments.
| |
B. | Security Transactions and Revenue Recognition. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities sold. Interest income is recorded on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded, net of any applicable withholding tax, on the ex-dividend date, or for certain foreign securities, when the information becomes available to the Funds. Premium amortization and discount accretion are determined by the effective yield method. |
For Diversified International, capital gain dividends from Underlying Funds are recorded as distributions of realized gains from affiliated Underlying Funds.
Global Real Estate and International Real Estate estimate components of distributions from real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). Distributions received in excess of income are recorded as a reduction of cost of the related investments. If the Funds no longer own the applicable securities, any distributions received in excess of income are recorded as realized gains.
| |
C. | Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Funds and Underlying Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Any foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis: |
| | |
| (1) | Market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities — at the exchange rates prevailing at the end of the day. |
|
| (2) | Purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses — at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. |
Although the net assets and the market values are presented at the foreign exchange rates at the end of the day, the Funds and Underlying Funds do not isolate the portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gains or losses from investments. For securities that are subject to foreign withholding tax upon disposition, liabilities are recorded on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities for the estimated tax withholding based on the securities’ current market value. Upon disposition, realized gains or losses on such securities are recorded net of foreign withholding tax.
Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Fund’s or an Underlying Fund’s books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at fiscal year end, resulting from changes in the exchange rate. Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. These risks include, but are not limited to revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments which could cause securities and their markets to be less liquid and prices more volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and U.S. government securities. The foregoing risks are even greater with respect to securities of issuers in emerging markets.
| |
D. | Forward Foreign Currency Transactions and Futures Contracts. Each Fund and Underlying Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange transactions to convert to and from different foreign currencies and to and from the U.S. dollar, generally in connection with the planned purchases or sales of securities. The Funds and Underlying Funds either enter into these transactions on a spot basis at the spot rate prevailing in the foreign currency exchange market or may use forward foreign currency contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies. When the contract is fulfilled or closed, gains or |
76
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
| |
| losses are realized. Until then, the gain or loss is included in unrealized appreciation or depreciation. Risks may arise upon entering into forward contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their forward contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. |
Each Fund and Underlying Fund may enter into futures contracts involving foreign currency, interest rates, securities and securities indices. Each Fund and Underlying Fund intends to limit its use of futures contracts and futures options to “bona fide hedging” transactions, as such term is defined in applicable regulations, interpretations and practice. A futures contract obligates the seller of the contract to deliver and the purchaser of the contract to take delivery of the type of foreign currency, financial instrument or security called for in the contract at a specified future time for a specified price. Upon entering into such a contract, a Fund or an Underlying Fund is required to deposit and maintain as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the contract is traded. Pursuant to the contract, a Fund or an Underlying Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount equal to the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Fund or an Underlying Fund. When the contract is closed, the Fund or Underlying Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
| |
E. | Distributions to Shareholders. The Funds record distributions to their shareholders on ex-dividend date. Each Fund pays dividends and capital gains, if any, annually (except, Global Equity Dividend, Global Real Estate, Asia-Pacific Real Estate, European Real Estate, International Equity Dividend and International Real Estate, which pay dividends, if any, quarterly and Emerging Markets Fixed Income and Global Bond, which pay dividends, if any, monthly). The Funds may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. The characteristics of income and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. |
| |
F. | Federal Income Taxes. It is the policy of the Funds to comply with subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and related excise tax provisions applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of their net investment income and any net realized capital gains to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Management has considered the sustainability of the Funds’ tax positions taken on federal income tax returns for all open tax years in making this determination. No capital gain distributions shall be made until any capital loss carryforwards have been fully utilized or expire. |
The Funds may utilize equalization accounting for tax purposes, whereby a portion of redemption payments are treated as distributions of income or gain.
| |
G. | Use of Estimates. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. |
|
H. | Organization Expenses and Offering Costs. Costs incurred with the organization of the Funds and Underlying Funds are expensed as incurred. Costs incurred with the offering of shares of the Funds and Underlying Funds are deferred and amortized over a twelve-month period on a straight-line basis. |
| |
I. | Repurchase Agreements. Each Fund and Underlying Fund may invest in repurchase agreements only with government securities dealers recognized by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Under such agreements, the seller of the security agrees to repurchase it at a mutually agreed upon time and price. The resale price is in excess of the purchase price and reflects an agreed upon |
77
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
| |
| interest rate for the period of time the agreement is outstanding. The period of the repurchase agreements is usually short, from overnight to one week, while the underlying securities generally have longer maturities. Each Fund and Underlying Fund will receive as collateral securities acceptable to it whose market value is equal to at least 100% of the carrying amount of the repurchase agreements, plus accrued interest, being invested by the Fund or Underlying Fund. The underlying collateral is valued daily on a mark to market basis to assure that the value, including accrued interest is at least equal to the repurchase price. There would be potential loss to the Fund or Underlying Fund in the event the Fund or Underlying Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral, and it might incur disposition costs in liquidating the collateral. |
| |
J. | Securities Lending. Each Fund and Underlying Fund has the option to temporarily loan up to 30% of its total assets to brokers, dealers or other financial institutions in exchange for a negotiated lender’s fee. The borrower is required to fully collateralize the loans with cash or U.S. government securities. Generally, in the event of counterparty default, each Fund and Underlying Fund has the right to use collateral to offset losses incurred. There would be potential loss to a Fund or Underlying Fund in the event the Fund or Underlying Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral. Each Fund and Underlying Fund bears the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Fund or Underlying Fund. |
|
K. | Options Contracts. The Funds may purchase put and call options and may write (sell) put options and covered call options. The Funds may engage in option transactions as a hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings or to increase market exposure. Option contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded based upon the last sales price on the principal exchange on which the options are traded. An amount equal to the proceeds of the premium received by the Funds upon the writing of a put or call option is included in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities as an asset and equivalent liability which is subsequently marked-to-market until it is exercised or closed, or it expires. The Funds will realize a gain or loss upon the expiration or closing of the option contract. When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales of the underlying security for a written call option, the purchase cost of the security for a written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid. Realized and unrealized gains or losses on option contracts are reflected in the accompanying financial statements. The risk in writing a covered call option is that the Funds give up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Funds may incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Funds pay a premium whether or not the option is exercised. Risks may also arise from an illiquid secondary market of from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract. |
|
L. | Swap Agreements. Certain Funds may enter into swap agreements. A swap is an agreement between two parties pursuant to which each party agrees to make one or more payments to the other at specified future intervals based on the return of an asset (such as a stock, bond or currency) or non-asset reference (such as an interest rate or index). The swap agreement will specify the “notional” amount of the asset or non-asset reference to which the contract relates. Subsequent changes in market value, if any, are calculated based upon changes in the performance of the asset or non-asset reference multiplied by the notional value of the contract. A Fund may enter into credit default, interest rate, total return and currency swaps to manage its exposure to credit, currency and interest rate risk. All outstanding swap agreements are reported following each Fund’s Portfolio of Investments. |
Swaps are marked to market daily using quotations primarily from third party pricing services, counterparties or brokers. The value of the swap contract is recorded on each Fund’s Statements of Assets or Liabilities. During the term of the swap, changes in the value of the
78
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
swap, if any, are recorded as unrealized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations. Upfront payments paid or received by a Fund when entering into the agreements are reported on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and as a component of the changes in unrealized gains or losses on the Statements of Operations. These upfront payments represent the amounts paid or received when initially entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between the stated terms of the swap agreement and the prevailing market conditions. The upfront payments are included as a component in the realized gains or losses on each Fund’s Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap. A Fund also records net periodic payments paid or received on the swap contract as a realized gain or loss on the Statements of Operations.
Entering into swap agreements involves the risk that the maximum potential loss of an investment exceeds the current value of the investment as reported on each Fund’s Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Other risks involve the possibility that the counterparty to the agreements may default on its obligation to perform, that there will be no liquid market for these investments and that unfavorable changes in the market will have a negative impact on the value of the index or securities underlying the respective swap agreement.
Credit Default Swap Contracts. A credit default swap is a bilateral agreement between counterparties in which the buyer of the protection agrees to make a stream of periodic payments to the seller of protection in exchange for the right to receive a specified return in the event of a default or other credit event for a referenced entity, obligation or index. As a seller of protection on credit default swaps, a Fund will generally receive from the buyer a fixed payment stream based on the notional amount of the swap contract. This fixed payment stream will continue until the swap contract expires or a defined credit event occurs.
A Fund is subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives. As a seller of protection in a credit default swap, a Fund may execute these contracts to manage its exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market. A Fund may also enter into credit default swaps to speculate on changes in an issuer’s credit quality, to take advantage of perceived spread advantages, or to offset an existing short equivalent (i.e. buying protection on an equivalent reference entity).
Certain Funds may sell credit default swaps which expose these Funds to the risk of loss from credit risk- related events specified in the contract. Although contract specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default or repudiation/moratorium. If a Fund is a seller of protection, and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Fund will generally either (i) pay to the buyer an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations, or underlying securities comprising a referenced index or (ii) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising a referenced index. If a Fund is a buyer of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, a Fund will either (i) receive from the seller of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and deliver the referenced obligation, other deliverable obligations or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (ii) receive a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index. Recovery values are assumed by market makers considering either industry standard recovery rates or entity specific factors and considerations until a credit event occurs. If a credit event has occurred, the recovery value is determined by a facilitated auction whereby a minimum number of allowable broker bids, together with a specified valuation method, are used to calculate the settlement value.
Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value
79
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 2 — SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues are disclosed in each Fund’s Portfolio of Investment and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. For credit default swaps on asset-backed securities or credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting market values serve as the indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk. Wider credit spreads and increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.
The maximum amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a Fund as seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement. Notional amounts of all credit default swap agreements outstanding as of April 30, 2009, for which a Fund is seller of protection, are disclosed in each Fund’s Portfolio of Investments. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreements, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by a Fund for the same referenced entity or entities.
| |
M. | Illiquid and Restricted Securities. Each Fund and Underlying Fund may not invest more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities. Illiquid securities are not readily marketable. Disposing of illiquid investments may involve time-consuming negotiation and legal expenses, and it may be difficult or impossible for the Funds and Underlying Funds to sell them promptly at an acceptable price. Each Fund and Underlying Fund may also invest in restricted securities which include those sold under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933 (“1933 Act”) or securities offered pursuant to Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act, and/or are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale and may not be publicly sold without registration under the 1933 Act. Certain restricted securities may be considered liquid pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board or may be deemed illiquid because they may not be readily marketable. Illiquid and restricted securities are valued using market quotations when readily available. In the absence of market quotations, the securities are valued based upon their fair value determined in good faith under procedures approved by the Board. |
|
N. | Delayed-Delivery or When-Issued Transaction. The Funds and Underlying Funds may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis. The price of the securities and date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The market value of these securities is identified in each Fund’s Portfolio of Investments. Losses may arise due to changes in the market value of the securities or from the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of the contract. In connection with such purchases, the Funds and Underlying Funds are required to segregate liquid assets sufficient to cover the purchase price. |

O. | Indemnifications. In the normal course of business, each Trust may enter into contracts that provide certain indemnifications. Each Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds and, therefore, cannot be estimated; however, based on experience, the risk of loss from such claims is considered remote. |

Control is defined by the 1940 Act as the beneficial ownership, either directly or through one or more controlled companies, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a company. The 1940 Act defines affiliates as companies that are under common control. Therefore, because the Funds have a common owner that owns over 25% of the outstanding securities of the Funds, they may be deemed to be affiliates of each other. Investment activities of these shareholders could have a material impact on the Funds.
The Investment Adviser may request that the Funds’ portfolio managers use their best efforts (subject to obtaining best execution of each transaction) to allocate a portfolio’s equity security transactions through certain designated broker-dealers. The designated broker-dealer, in turn, will reimburse a portion of the brokerage commissions to pay certain expenses of that Fund. Any amounts credited to a Fund are reflected as a reimbursement of expenses in the Statements of Operations.
The Registrants have adopted a Retirement Policy covering all independent trustees of the Funds who will have served as an independent trustee for at least five years at the time of retirement. Benefits under this plan are based on an annual rate as defined in the plan agreement.
The following Funds placed a portion of their portfolio transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of the investment adviser. The commissions paid to these affiliated firms were:

NOTE 15 — CONCENTRATION OF RISKS
Diversified International is also affected by other kinds of risks, depending on the types of securities held or strategies used by an Underlying Fund.
Investment by Funds-of-Funds (Diversified International). Each of the Underlying Funds’ shares may be purchased by other investment companies. In some cases, an Underlying Fund may experience large inflows or redemptions due to allocations or rebalancings. While it is impossible to predict the overall impact of these transactions over time, there could be adverse effects on portfolio management. The Investment Adviser will monitor transactions by each Underlying Fund and will attempt to minimize any adverse effects on the Underlying Funds and the Fund as a result of these transactions. So long as an Underlying Fund accepts investments by other investment companies, it will not purchase securities of other investment companies, except to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act or under the terms of an exemptive order granted by the SEC.
Foreign Securities (All Funds). Investments in foreign securities may entail risks not present in domestic investments. Since securities in which the Funds and Underlying Funds may invest are denominated in foreign currencies, changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S. dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the Funds and Underlying Funds. Foreign investments may also subject the Funds and Underlying Funds to foreign government exchange restrictions, expropriation, taxation or other political, social or economic developments, as well as changes vis-a-vis the U.S. dollar from movements in currency, and changes in security value and interest rate, all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk of the Funds’ and Underlying Funds’ investments.
Emerging Markets Investments (All Funds except Index Plus International Equity). Because of less developed markets and economies and, in some countries, less mature governments and governmental institutions, the risks of investing in foreign securities can be
96
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 15 — CONCENTRATION OF RISKS (continued)
intensified in the case of investments in issuers domiciled or doing substantial business in emerging market countries.
Industry Concentration (Global Natural Resources, Global Real Estate, Asia-Pacific Real Estate, European Real Estate and International Real Estate). As a result of each Fund and each Underlying Fund concentrating its assets in securities related to a particular industry, each Fund or Underlying Fund may be subject to greater market fluctuation than a fund that invests in securities representing a broader range of investment alternatives.
Geographic Concentration (Asia-Pacific Real Estate, European Real Estate, Greater China and Russia). As a result of each Fund concentrating its assets in a single region of the world, each Fund’s performance may be more volatile than that of a fund that invests globally. If securities in the region that each Fund is concentrated fall out of favor, it may cause a Fund to underperform in relation to funds that focus on other types of stocks.
Non-Diversified (Global Natural Resources, Global Real Estate, Asia-Pacific Real Estate, Disciplined International SmallCap, European Real Estate, Greater China, International Real Estate, Russia, Emerging Markets Fixed Income and Global Bond). The Funds and Underlying Funds are each classified as non-diversified investment companies under the 1940 Act, which means that each Fund or Underlying Fund is not limited by the 1940 Act in the proportion of assets that they may invest in the obligations of a single issuer. Declines in the value of that single company can significantly impact the value of a Fund or Underlying Fund. The investment of a large percentage of a Fund’s or Underlying Fund’s assets in the securities of a small number of issuers may cause a Fund’s share price to fluctuate more than that of a diversified investment company. Conversely, even though classified as non-diversified, a Fund or Underlying Fund may actually maintain a portfolio that is diversified with a large number of issuers. In such an event, a Fund or Underlying Fund would benefit less from appreciation in a single corporate issuer than if it had greater exposure to that issuer.
Restricted and Illiquid Securities (All Funds). If a security is illiquid, a Fund or Underlying Fund may not be able to sell the security at a time when the Investment Adviser or a Sub-Adviser might wish to sell, and the security could have the effect of decreasing the overall level of a Fund’s or Underlying Fund’s liquidity. Further, the lack of an established secondary market may make it more difficult to value illiquid securities, which could vary from the amount a Fund or Underlying Fund could realize upon disposition. Restricted securities, i.e., securities subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, may be illiquid. However, some restricted securities may be treated as liquid, although they may be less liquid than registered securities traded on established secondary markets.
Rule 144A Securities (Global Real Estate, Global Value Choice, Asia-Pacific Real Estate, European Real Estate, Greater China, International Real Estate and International Value Choice). Rule 144A securities are securities that are not registered, but which are bought and sold solely by institutional investors. Each Fund generally considers Rule 144A securities to be “liquid” although the market for such securities typically is less active than public securities markets and may lead to less ability to sell these securities.
During the period, Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. (LBHI) and certain of its affiliates sought protection under the insolvency laws of their jurisdictions of organization, including the United States, the United Kingdom and Japan. For the period ended April 30, 2009, Global Bond had outstanding securities trades with counterparties affiliated with LBHI. As a result of these events, LBHI’s affiliates were unable to fulfill their commitments and, in certain cases, Global Bond may have terminated its trades and related agreements with the relevant entities and, where appropriate, is in the process of initiating claims for damages. Management has determined that the financial impact to the Funds relating to these events is immaterial.
NOTE 16 — SECURITIES LENDING
Under an agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY”), the Funds can lend their securities to approved brokers, dealers and other financial institutions. Loans are collateralized by cash and U.S. government securities. The collateral is equal to at least 105% of the market value of non-U.S. securities loaned and 102% of the market value of U.S. securities loaned when the transaction is entered into and is adjusted daily for changes in the market values of the securities on loan. The cash collateral received is invested in approved investments as defined in the Securities Lending Agreement with BNY (the “Agreement”). The Funds bear the risk of loss with respect to the investment of collateral. Currently, the cash collateral is invested in the Bank of New York Mellon Corp.
97
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
NOTE 16 — SECURITIES LENDING (continued)
Institutional Cash Reserves Fund (“BICR Fund”). BNY serves as investment manager, custodian and operational trustee of the BICR Fund. As of April 30, 2009, the BICR Fund held certain defaulted securities that had market values significantly below amortized cost. The investment in the BICR Fund is included in the Portfolio of Investments under Securities Lending Collateral and the unrealized loss on such investment is included in Net Unrealized Depreciation on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds agreed to the terms of capital support extended by The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNYC”), an affiliated company of BNY, for the certain defaulted securities held by the BICR Fund. BNYC will support the value of these securities up to a certain amount and subject, in part, to the Funds’ continued lending of securities. The recorded value of each Fund’s investment in the BICR Fund includes the value of the underlying securities held by the BICR Fund and the estimated value of the support to be provided by BNYC.
Generally, in the event of counterparty default, the Funds have the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. The Agreement contains certain guarantees by BNY in the event of counterparty default and/or a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security; however, there would be a potential loss to the Funds in the event the Funds are delayed or prevented from exercising their right to dispose of the collateral. Engaging in securities lending could have a leveraging effect, which may intensify the credit, market and other risks associated with investing in a Fund. At April 30, 2009, the following Funds had securities on loan with the following market values:

NOTE 17 — FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
The amount of distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for investment companies. These book/tax differences may be either temporary or permanent. Permanent differences are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences are not reclassified. Key differences include the treatment of short-term capital gains, foreign currency transactions, and wash sale deferrals. Distributions in excess of net investment income and/or net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.

NOTE 18 — OTHER ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
On March 19, 2008, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 161 (“SFAS No. 161”), “Disclosure about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities.” This new accounting statement requires enhanced disclosures about an entity’s derivative and hedging activities. Entities are required to provide enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity invests in derivatives, (b) how derivatives are accounted for under SFAS No. 133, and (c) how derivatives affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 also requires enhanced disclosures regarding credit-risk-related contingent features of derivative instruments. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008. As of April 30, 2009, management of the Funds is currently assessing the impact of the expanded financial statement disclosures that will result from adopting SFAS No. 161.
NOTE 19 — INFORMATION REGARDING TRADING OF ING’S U.S. MUTUAL FUNDS
As discussed in earlier supplements that were previously filed with the SEC, ING Investments, the adviser to the ING Funds, has reported to the Boards of Directors/Trustees (the “Boards”) of the ING Funds that, like many U.S. financial services companies, ING Investments and certain of its U.S. affiliates have received informal and formal requests for information since September 2003 from various governmental and self-regulatory agencies in connection with investigations related to mutual funds and variable insurance products. ING Investments has advised the Boards that it and its affiliates have cooperated fully with each request.
In addition to responding to regulatory and governmental requests, ING Investments reported that management of U.S. affiliates of ING Groep N.V., including ING Investments (collectively, “ING”), on their own initiative, have conducted, through independent special counsel and a national accounting firm, an extensive internal review of trading in ING insurance, retirement, and mutual fund products. ING’s internal review related to mutual fund trading has been completed. ING has reported that, of the millions of customer relationships that ING maintains, the internal review identified several isolated arrangements allowing third parties to engage in frequent trading of mutual funds within ING’s variable insurance and mutual fund products, and identified other circumstances where frequent trading occurred, despite measures taken by ING intended to combat market timing. ING further reported that each of these arrangements has been terminated and fully disclosed to regulators. The results of the internal review were also reported to the independent members of the Boards.
ING Investments has advised the Boards that most of the identified arrangements were initiated prior to ING’s acquisition of the businesses in question in the U.S. ING Investments further reported that the companies in question did not receive special benefits in return for any of these arrangements, which have all been terminated.
Based on the internal review, ING Investments has advised the Boards that the identified arrangements do not represent a systemic problem in any of the companies that were involved.
Despite the extensive internal review conducted through independent special counsel and a national accounting firm, there can be no assurance that the instances of inappropriate trading reported to the Boards are the only instances of such trading respecting the ING Funds.
ING Investments reported to the Boards that ING is committed to conducting its business with the highest standards of ethical conduct with zero tolerance for noncompliance. Accordingly, ING Investments advised the Boards that ING management was disappointed that its voluntary internal review identified these situations. Viewed in the context of the breadth and magnitude of its U.S. business as a whole, ING management does not believe that ING’s acquired companies had systemic ethical or compliance issues in these areas. Nonetheless, ING Investments reported that given ING’s refusal to tolerate any lapses, it has taken the steps noted below, and will continue to seek opportunities to further strengthen the internal controls of its affiliates.
| |
• | ING has agreed with the ING Funds to indemnify and hold harmless the ING Funds from all damages resulting from wrongful conduct by ING or its employees or from ING’s internal investigation, any investigations conducted by any governmental or self-regulatory agencies, litigation or other formal proceedings, including any proceedings by the SEC. ING Investments reported to the Boards that the indemnification commitments made by ING Funds related to mutual fund trading have been settled and restitution amounts prepared by an independent consultant have been paid to the affected ING Funds. The net aggregate settlement |

International SmallCap Multi-Manager | | $ | 1,028,303 | |

| |
• | ING updated its Code of Conduct for employees reinforcing its employees’ obligation to conduct personal trading activity consistent with the law, disclosed limits, and other requirements. |
Other Regulatory Matters
The New York Attorney General and other federal and state regulators are also conducting broad inquiries and investigations involving the insurance industry. These initiatives currently focus on, among other things, compensation and other sales incentives; potential conflicts of interest; potential anti-competitive activity; reinsurance; marketing practices (including suitability); specific product types (including group annuities and indexed annuities); fund selection for investment products and brokerage sales; and disclosure. It is likely that the scope of these industry investigations will further broaden before they conclude. ING has received formal and informal requests in connection with such investigations, and is cooperating fully with each request.
Other federal and state regulators could initiate similar actions in this or other areas of ING’s businesses. These regulatory initiatives may result in new legislation and regulation that could significantly affect the financial services industry, including businesses in which ING is engaged. In light of these and other developments, ING continuously reviews whether modifications to its business practices are appropriate. At this time, in light of the current regulatory factors, ING U.S. is actively engaged in reviewing whether any modifications in our practices are appropriate for the future.
There can be no assurance that these matters, or the adverse publicity associated with them, will not result in increased fund redemptions, reduced sale of fund shares, or other adverse consequences to ING Funds.

“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of April 30, 2009 in determining the Fund’s investments at fair value for purposes of SFAS 157: |
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |
Level 1 — Quoted Prices | | $ | 454,739,258 | | | $ | — | |
Level 2 — Other Significant Observable Inputs† | | | 648,224,015 | | | | — | |
Level 3 — Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | — | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 1,102,963,273 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of April 30, 2009 in determining the Fund’s investments at fair value for purposes of SFAS 157:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |
Level 1 — Quoted Prices | | $ | 92,094,454 | | | $ | — | |
Level 2 — Other Significant Observable Inputs† | | | 51,989,623 | | | | — | |
Level 3 — Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | — | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 144,084,077 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.

ING European Real Estate Fund
as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS
ING Foreign Fund
as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
The following table summarizes the inputs used as of April 30, 2009 in determining the Fund’s investments at fair value for purposes of SFAS 157:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |
|
Level 1 — Quoted Prices | | $ | 57,746,645 | | | $ | — | |
Level 2 — Other Significant Observable Inputs† | | | 182,696,224 | | | | 270,725 | |
Level 3 — Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | 103,058 | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 240,545,927 | | | $ | 270,725 | |
| | | | | | | | |
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.
A roll forward of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended April 30, 2009 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |
|
Beginning Balance at 10/31/08 | | $ | 58,849 | | | $ | — | |
Net Purchases/(Sales) | | | — | | | | — | |
Accrued Discounts/(Premiums) | | | — | | | | — | |
Total Realized Gain/(Loss) | | | — | | | | — | |
Total Unrealized Appreciation/(Depreciation) | | | 44,209 | | | | — | |
Net Transfers In/(Out) of Level 3 | | | — | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Ending Balance at 04/30/09 | | $ | 103,058 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
For the six months ended April 30, 2009, total change in unrealized gain (loss) on Level 3 securities still held at period end and included in the change in net assets was $44,209. Total unrealized gain (loss) for all securities (including Level 1 and Level 2) can be found on the accompanying Statement of Operations.

“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.
A roll forward of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended April 30, 2009 was as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|

Total Realized Gain/(Loss) | | | — | | | | — | |
Total Unrealized Appreciation/(Depreciation) | | | — | | | | — | |
Net Transfers In/(Out) of Level 3 | | | 5 | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Ending Balance at 04/30/09 | | $ | 5 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
For the six months ended April 30, 2009, total change in unrealized gain (loss) on Level 3 securities still held at period end and included in the change in net assets was $(47). Total unrealized gain (loss) for all securities (including Level 1 and Level 2) can be found on the accompanying Statement of Operations.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of April 30, 2009 in determining the Fund’s investments at fair value for purposes of SFAS 157:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |
|
Level 1 — Quoted Prices | | $ | 3,559,006 | | | $ | — | |
Level 2 — Other Significant Observable Inputs† | | | 18,268,445 | | | | — | |
Level 3 — Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | — | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 21,827,451 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of April 30, 2009 in determining the Fund’s investments at fair value for purposes of SFAS 157:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |
|
Level 1 — Quoted Prices | | $ | 31,346,899 | | | $ | — | |
Level 2 — Other Significant Observable Inputs† | | | 258,208,093 | | | | — | |
Level 3 — Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | — | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 289,554,992 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

ING International Value Fund
as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
The following table summarizes the inputs used as of April 30, 2009 in determining the Fund’s investments at fair value for purposes of SFAS 157:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |
Level 1 — Quoted Prices | | $ | 337,240,273 | | | $ | — | |
Level 2 — Other Significant Observable Inputs† | | | 1,296,268,775 | | | | — | |
Level 3 — Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | — | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 1,633,509,048 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

The following table summarizes the inputs used as of April 30, 2009 in determining the Fund’s investments at fair value for purposes of SFAS 157:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |
|
Level 1 — Quoted Prices | | $ | 14,449,216 | | | $ | — | |
Level 2 — Other Significant Observable Inputs† | | | 23,896,843 | | | | — | |
Level 3 — Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | — | | | | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
Total | | $ | 38,346,059 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

as of April 30, 2009 (Unaudited) (continued)
The following table summarizes the inputs used as of April 30, 2009 in determining the Fund’s investments at fair value for purposes of SFAS 157:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Investments in
| | Other Financial
|
| | Securities | | Instruments* |

Level 1 — Quoted Prices | | $ | 49,010,422 | | | | — | |
Level 2 — Other Significant Observable Inputs† | | | 196,020,373 | | | | — | |
Level 3 — Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | — | | | | — | |

Total | | $ | 245,030,795 | | | $ | — | |
| | | | | | | | |
“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
†The earlier close of the foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim and may materially affect the value of those securities. To account for this, the Fund may frequently value many of its foreign equity securities using fair value prices based on third party vendor modeling tools to the extent available. Accordingly, a significant portion of the Fund’s investments are categorized as Level 2 investments.

“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
A roll forward of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended April 30, 2009 was as follows:

| | | | | | | | |

“Fair value” for purposes of SFAS 157 is different from “fair value” as used in the 1940 Act. The former generally implies market value, and can include market quotations as a source of value, and the latter refers to determinations of value in absence of available market quotations.
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
A roll forward of fair value measurements using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the six months ended April 30, 2009 was as follows:

| | | | | | | | |
*Other financial instruments may include forward foreign currency contracts, futures, swaps, and written options. Forward foreign currency contracts and futures are reported at their unrealized gain/loss at period end. Swaps and written options are reported at their market value at period end.
For the six months ended April 30, 2009, total change in unrealized gain (loss) on Level 3 securities still held at period end and included in the change in net assets was $175,186.

BOARD CONSIDERATION AND RE-APPROVAL OF INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND SUB-ADVISORY CONTRACTS
Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) provides that, after an initial period, the Funds’ existing investment advisory and sub-advisory contracts will remain in effect only if the Boards of Trustees (the “Board”) of ING Mutual Funds and ING Mayflower Trust (together, the “Trust”), including a majority of Board members who have no direct or indirect interest in the advisory and sub-advisory contracts, and who are not “interested persons” of the Funds, as such term is defined under the 1940 Act (the “Independent Trustees”), annually review and approve them. Thus, at a meeting held on November 14, 2008, the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered whether to renew the investment advisory contracts (the “Advisory Contracts”) between ING Investments, LLC (the “Adviser”) and the Funds and the sub-advisory contracts (“Sub-Advisory Contracts”) with the sub-adviser to each Fund (the “Sub-Advisers”).
The Independent Trustees also held separate meetings on October 24 and November 12, 2008 to consider the renewal of the Advisory Contracts and Sub-Advisory Contracts. As a result, subsequent references herein to factors considered and determinations made by the Independent Trustees include, as applicable, factors considered and determinations made on those earlier dates by the Independent Trustees.
At its November 14, 2008 meeting, the Board voted to renew the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the Funds. In reaching these decisions, the Board took into account information furnished to it throughout the year at regular meetings of the Board and the Board’s committees, as well as information prepared specifically in connection with the annual renewal process. Determinations by the Independent Trustees also took into account various factors that they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them by K&L Gates LLP (“K&L Gates”), their independent legal counsel, and their own business judgment, to be relevant. Further, while the Advisory Contracts and Sub-Advisory Contracts for all the Funds were considered at the same Board meeting, the Trustees considered each Fund’s advisory and sub-advisory relationships separately.
Provided below is an overview of the Board’s contract approval process in general, as well as a discussion of certain specific factors that the Board considered at its renewal meeting. While the Board gave its attention to the information furnished, at its request, that was most relevant to its considerations, discussed below are a number of the primary factors relevant to the Board’s consideration as to whether to renew the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the one-year period ending November 30, 2009. Each Board member may have accorded different weight to the various factors in reaching his or her conclusions with respect to each Fund’s advisory and sub-advisory arrangements.
Overview of the Contract Renewal and Approval Process
Several years ago, the Independent Trustees instituted a revised process by which they seek and consider relevant information when they decide whether to approve new or existing advisory and sub-advisory arrangements for the investment companies in the ING Funds complex under their jurisdiction, including the Funds’ existing Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts. Among other actions, the Independent Trustees: retained the services of independent consultants with experience in the mutual fund industry to assist the Independent Trustees in working with the personnel employed by the Adviser or its affiliates who administer the Funds (“Management”) to identify the types of information presented to the Board to inform its deliberations with respect to advisory and sub-advisory relationships and to help evaluate that information; established a specific format in which certain requested information is provided to the Board; and determined the process for reviewing such information in connection with Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contract renewals and approvals. The end result was an enhanced process which is currently employed by the Independent Trustees to review and analyze information in connection with their annual renewal of the ING Funds’ advisory and sub-advisory contracts, as well as their review and approval of new advisory relationships.
Since the current renewal and approval process was first implemented, the Board’s membership has changed substantially through periodic retirements of some Trustees and the appointment and election of new Trustees. In addition, throughout this period the Independent Trustees have reviewed and refined the renewal and approval process at least annually. The Board also established a Contracts Committee and two Investment Review Committees, including the International/Balanced/Fixed Income Funds Investment Review Committee (the “I/B/F IRC”). Among other matters, the Contracts Committee provides oversight
173
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
with respect to the contracts renewal process, and each Fund is assigned to the I/B/F IRC, which provides oversight regarding, among other matters, investment performance.
The type and format of the information provided to the Board or to legal counsel for the Independent Trustees in connection with the contract approval and renewal process has been codified in the Funds’ 15(c) Methodology Guide. This Guide was developed under the direction of the Independent Trustees and sets out a blueprint pursuant to which the Independent Trustees request certain information that they deem important to facilitate an informed review in connection with initial and annual approvals of advisory and sub-advisory contracts.
Management provides certain of the information requested by the 15(c) Methodology Guide in Fund Analysis and Comparison Tables (“FACT sheets”) prior to the Independent Trustees’ review of advisory and sub-advisory arrangements (including the Funds’ Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts). The Independent Trustees previously retained an independent firm to verify and test the accuracy of certain FACT sheet data for a representative sample of funds in the ING Funds complex. In addition, in 2007 and 2008, the Contracts Committee employed the services of an independent consultant to assist in its review and analysis of, among other matters, the 15(c) Methodology Guide, the content and format of the FACT sheets, and proposed selected peer groups of investment companies (“SPGs”) to be used by the Funds for certain comparison purposes during the renewal process.
As part of an ongoing process, the Contracts Committee recommends or considers recommendations from Management for refinements to the 15(c) Methodology Guide and other aspects of the review process, and the Board’s I/B/F IRC review benchmarks used to assess the performance of the funds in the ING Funds complex. The Investment Review Committees may apply a heightened level of scrutiny in cases where performance has lagged an ING Fund’s relevant benchmark and/or SPG.
The Board employed its process for reviewing contracts when considering the renewals of the Funds’ Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts that would be effective through November 30, 2009. Set forth below is a discussion of many of the Board’s primary considerations and conclusions resulting from this process.
Nature, Extent and Quality of Service
In determining whether to approve the Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the Funds for the year ending November 30, 2009, the Independent Trustees received and evaluated such information as they deemed necessary regarding the nature, extent and quality of services provided to the Funds by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers. This included information regarding the Adviser and Sub-Advisers provided throughout the year at regular meetings of the Board and its committees, as well as information furnished in connection with the contract renewal meetings.
The materials requested by and provided to the Board and/or to K&L Gates prior to the November 14, 2008 Board meeting included, among other information, the following items for each Fund: (1) FACT sheets that provided information regarding the performance and expenses of the Fund and other similarly managed funds in its SPG, as well as information regarding the Fund’s investment portfolio, objective and strategies; (2) reports providing risk and attribution analyses of the Fund; (3) the 15(c) Methodology Guide, which describes how the FACT sheets were prepared, including the manner in which each Fund’s benchmark and SPG were selected and how profitability was determined; (4) responses from the Adviser and relevant Sub-Adviser or Sub-Advisers to a series of questions posed by K&L Gates on behalf of the Trustees; (5) copies of the forms of Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts; (6) copies of the Forms ADV for the Adviser and Sub-Adviser; (7) financial statements for the Adviser and Sub-Adviser; (8) a draft of a narrative summary addressing key factors the Board customarily considers in evaluating the renewals of the ING Funds’ (including the Funds’) advisory contracts and sub-advisory contracts, including a written analysis for each Fund of how performance, fees and expenses compare to its SPG and/or designated benchmark; (9) independent analyses of Fund performance by the Trust’s Chief Investment Risk Officer; (10) information regarding net asset flows into and out of the Fund; and (11) other information relevant to the Board’s evaluations.
For each Fund, Class A shares were used for purposes of certain comparisons to the funds in its SPG. Class A shares generally were selected so that the Fund’s share class with the longest performance history was compared to the analogous class of shares for each fund in its SPG. The mutual funds included in the Funds’
174
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
SPGs were selected based upon criteria designed to mirror the Fund share class being compared to the SPG.
In arriving at its conclusions with respect to the Advisory Contracts, the Board was mindful of the “manager-of-managers” platform of the ING Funds that has been developed by Management. The Board also considered the techniques that the Adviser has developed, at the Board’s direction, to screen and perform due diligence on the Sub-Advisers that are recommended to the Board to manage the investment portfolios of the funds in the ING Funds complex. The Board noted the resources that the Adviser has committed to the Board and the I/B/F IRC to assist the Board and the I/B/F IRC with their assessment of the investment performance of the Funds on an ongoing basis throughout the year. This includes the appointment of a Chief Investment Risk Officer and his staff, who report directly to the Board and who have developed attribution analyses and other metrics used by the Board’s Investment Review Committees to analyze the key factors underlying investment performance for the funds in the ING Funds complex.
The Board also noted the techniques used by the Adviser to monitor the performance of the Sub-Advisers and the proactive approach that the Adviser, working in cooperation with the I/B/F IRC, has taken to advocate or recommend, when it believed appropriate, changes designed to assist in improving the Funds’ performance.
In considering the Funds’ Advisory Contracts, the Board also considered the extent of benefits provided to the Funds’ shareholders, beyond advisory services, from being part of the ING family of funds. This includes, in most cases, the right to exchange or transfer investments, without a sales charge, between the same class of shares of such funds or among ING Funds available on a product platform, and the wide range of ING Funds available for exchange or transfer. The Board also took into account the Adviser’s efforts in recent years to reduce the expenses of the ING Funds through renegotiated arrangements with the ING Funds’ service providers.
Further, the Board received periodic reports showing that the investment policies and restrictions for each Fund were consistently complied with and other periodic reports covering matters such as compliance by Adviser and Sub-Adviser personnel with codes of ethics. The Board considered reports from the Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) evaluating whether the regulatory compliance systems and procedures of the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser are reasonably designed to assure compliance with the federal securities laws, including those related to, among others, late trading and market timing, best execution, fair value pricing, proxy voting and trade allocation practices. The Board also took into account the CCO’s annual and periodic reports and recommendations with respect to service provider compliance programs. In this regard, the Board also considered the policies and procedures developed by the CCO in consultation with the Board’s Compliance Committee that guide the CCO’s compliance oversight function.
The Board reviewed the level of staffing, quality and experience of each Fund’s portfolio management team. The Board took into account the respective resources and reputations of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, and evaluated the ability of the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers to attract and retain qualified investment advisory personnel. The Board also considered the adequacy of the resources committed to the Funds (and other relevant funds in the ING Funds complex) by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, and whether those resources are commensurate with the needs of the Funds and are sufficient to sustain appropriate levels of performance and compliance needs.
Based on their deliberations and the materials presented to them, the Board concluded that the advisory and related services provided by the Adviser and each Sub-Adviser are appropriate in light of the Funds’ operations, the competitive landscape of the investment company business, and investor needs, and that the nature and quality of the overall services provided by the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers were appropriate.
Fund Performance
In assessing advisory and sub-advisory relationships, the Board placed emphasis on the net investment returns of each Fund. While the Board considered the performance reports and discussions with portfolio managers at Board and committee meetings during the year, particular attention in assessing performance was given to the FACT sheets furnished in connection with the renewal process. The FACT sheet prepared for each Fund included its investment performance compared to the Fund’s Morningstar category median and/or Lipper category median, SPG and primary benchmark. The FACT sheet performance data was as of June 30, 2008. In addition, the Board also considered at its November 14, 2008 meeting certain additional data regarding
175
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
performance and Fund asset levels as of October 31, 2008. The Board’s findings specific to each Fund’s performance are discussed under “Fund-by-Fund Analysis” below.
Economies of Scale
When evaluating the reasonableness of advisory fee rates, the Board also considered whether economies of scale will be realized by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser as a Fund grows larger and the extent to which any such economies are reflected in contractual fee rates. In this regard, the Board noted any breakpoints in advisory fee schedules that will result in a lower advisory fee rate when a Fund achieves sufficient asset levels to receive a breakpoint discount. In the case of sub-advisory fees, the Board considered that breakpoints would inure to the benefit of the Adviser, except to the extent that there are corresponding advisory fee breakpoints or waivers. For a Fund that did not have advisory fee breakpoints, but did benefit from waivers or reimbursements of advisory or other fees, the Board also considered the extent to which economies of scale could be realized through waivers, reimbursements or expense reductions.
In evaluating economies of scale, the Independent Trustees also considered prior periodic management reports and industry information on this topic, and the Independent Trustees who were Board members at that time also considered a November 2006 evaluation and analysis presented to them by an independent consultant regarding fee breakpoint arrangements and economies of scale.
The Board also considered that the Funds have experienced material declines in assets, especially during October 2008, due to general market declines precipitated by the credit crises and other generally adverse market developments. As a result of this asset decline, the Board considered that there were fewer opportunities to realize economies of scale.
Information Regarding Services to Other Clients
The Board requested and considered information regarding the nature of services and fee rates offered by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers to other clients, including other registered investment companies and institutional accounts. When fee rates offered to other clients differed materially from those charged to the Funds, the Board considered any underlying rationale provided by the Adviser or a Sub-Adviser for these differences. For unaffiliated Sub-Advisers, the Board did not view this information as being a key factor in its deliberations because of the arms-length nature of negotiations between the Adviser and unaffiliated Sub-Advisers with respect to sub-advisory fee rates. The Board also noted that the fee rates charged to the Funds and other institutional clients of the Adviser or a Sub-Adviser (including other investment companies) may differ materially due to, among other reasons: differences in services; different regulatory requirements associated with registered investment companies, such as the Funds, as compared to non-registered investment company clients; market differences in fee rates that existed when a Fund first was organized; differences in the original sponsors of Funds that now are managed by the Adviser; investment capacity constraints that existed when certain contracts were first agreed upon or that might exist at present; and different pricing structures that are necessary to be competitive in different marketing channels.
Fee Rates and Profitability
The Board reviewed and considered each contractual investment advisory fee rate, combined with the administrative fee rate, payable by each Fund to the Adviser. The Board also considered the contractual sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Adviser to each Sub-Adviser for sub-advisory services for each Fund. In addition, the Board considered fee waivers and expense limitations applicable to the fees payable by the Funds.
The Board considered the fee structure of each Fund as it relates to the services provided under the contracts and the potential fall-out benefits to the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers and their respective affiliates from their association with the Funds. For each Fund, the Board determined that the fees payable to the Adviser and the Sub-Advisers are reasonable for the services that each performs, which were considered in light of the nature and quality of the services that each has performed and is expected to perform.
For each Fund, the Board considered information on revenues, costs and profits realized by the Adviser, which was prepared by Management in accordance with the allocation methodology (including related assumptions) specified in the 15(c) Methodology Guide. In analyzing the profitability of the Adviser in connection with its services to a Fund, the Board took into account the sub-advisory fee rate payable by the Adviser to each Sub-Adviser. The Board also considered
176
ADVISORY CONTRACT APPROVAL DISCUSSION (Unaudited) (continued)
information that it requested and was provided by Management with respect to the profitability of service providers affiliated with the Adviser, as well as information provided by certain Sub-Advisers with respect to their profitability. In the case of non-affiliated Sub-Advisers, the Board gave less weight to profitability considerations, or did not view this data as imperative to its deliberations, given the arm’s-length nature of the relationship between the Adviser and these Sub-Advisers with respect to the negotiation of sub-advisory fee rates. Further, the Board considered that the decline in asset levels of many Funds caused by recent adverse economic conditions was likely to cause a similar decline in any profits realized by the Adviser and Sub-Advisers.
The Board determined that it had requested and received sufficient information to gain a reasonable understanding regarding the Adviser’s and affiliated Sub-Adviser’s profitability. The Board also recognized that profitability analysis is not an exact science and there is no uniform methodology for determining profitability for this purpose. In this context, the Board realized that Management’s calculations regarding its costs incurred in establishing the infrastructure necessary for the Funds’ operations may not be fully reflected in the expenses allocated to each Fund in determining profitability, and that the information presented may not portray all of the costs borne by Management or capture Management’s entrepreneurial risk associated with offering and managing a mutual fund complex in the current regulatory and market environment.
In their review of advisory fee rates, the Independent Trustees have, from time to time, requested the Adviser, and the Adviser has agreed to implement remedial actions for certain Funds. These remedial actions have included, among others: reductions in fee rates; changes in Sub-Advisers or portfolio managers; and strategy modifications.
Based on the information on revenues, costs, and profitability considered by the Board, and after considering the factors described in this section, the Board concluded that the profits, if any, realized by the Adviser and affiliated Sub-Adviser were not excessive. In making its determinations, the Board based its conclusions on the reasonableness of the advisory and sub-advisory fees of the Adviser and affiliated Sub-Adviser primarily on the factors described for each Fund below.
Fund-by-Fund Analysis
The following paragraphs outline certain of the specific factors that the Board considered, and the conclusions reached, at its November 14, 2008 meeting in relation to renewing each Fund’s current Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts for the year ending November 30, 2009. These specific factors are in addition to those considerations discussed above. In each case, the Fund’s performance was compared to its Morningstar category median, except for ING Classic Money Market Fund and ING Institutional Prime Money Market Fund, which were compared to their Lipper category medians, and its primary benchmark, a broad-based securities market index that appears in the Fund’s prospectus. With respect to Morningstar quintile rankings, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. Each Fund’s management fee and expense ratio were compared to the fees and expense ratios of the funds in its SPG.

and the average management fees of the funds in its SPG; and (b) the expense ratio for the Fund is above the median and the average expense ratios of the funds in its SPG.
