The following is only a summary of the Fund. For a full description, please consult the Fund's prospectus.

The investment policy of the Pacific Basin Value Fund is to purchase securities of Pacific Basin traded companies that Dimensional deems eligible value stocks. Securities are considered value stocks primarily because a company's shares have a high book value in relation to their market value. In assessing value, Dimensional may consider additional factors such as price-to-cash-flow or price-to-earnings ratios, as well as economic conditions and developments in the issuer's industry. The criteria that Dimensional uses for assessing value are subject to change from time to time. Currently, the Fund intends to purchase a broad and diverse group of stocks traded on the principal exchanges of Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, New Zealand, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan.
