American Century® Announces Important
2007 Product Initiative
March 5, 2007
To: Home Office Business Partners
As part of American Century Investments' commitment to the financial
professional business, we plan to make several enhancements to our product
line-up in 2007. Our goal is to align our products to best meet your firm's
needs and the needs of your clients.
Highlights include:
o Expand our Advisor Funds line-up -
o Adding 12 new strategies with the full complement of pricing options
will provide our clients with 39 funds across the investment spectrum.
o Simplify our share class structure -
o By aligning our fund line-up through adding share classes and
eliminating select share classes and funds, clients will enjoy a more
streamlined approach to utilize our funds across various product
platforms.
o Reconfiguring our advisor class fee structure will make it consistent
with industry practices, eliminating any potential client confusion.
Many of these changes will require approval by a shareholder vote. If your
clients are invested in any of the affected funds or classes, they will receive
a proxy statement in the mail from American Century Investments after the record
date of April 13, 2007. In addition, all eligible shareholders will receive
proxy statements to elect directors/trustees that govern our Kansas City and
Mountain View funds, so some of your clients may receive multiple proxy
statements.
Every vote is important, no matter how many shares your clients own. We
appreciate your attention to this important initiative. If you have questions or
would like more details on the proxy proposals, please contact your relationship
manager at 1-800-345-6488.
Thank you,
American Century Investments
