Statement of Additional Information

Past performance is no guarantee or indication of future results. The rate of return will vary and the principal value of an investment will fluctuate. Shares, if redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Performance does not reflect the effect of sales charges, fees, or taxes. If such charges were included, performance would be lower. Return figures reflect any change in price per share, and assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any.

Returns include the effect of a payment from the investment manager to the Fund in 2004. Absent such payment, returns would have been lower.

IMPORTANT PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

Performance data quoted herein represents past performance. Past performance does not guarantee or indicate future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance data quoted. Total returns of the Fund as of the most recent month-end will be made available at Current Fund Returns by the seventh business day following that month-end.

Return figures reflect any change in price per share, and assume the reinvestment of dividends and capital gain distributions, if any. Returns include the effect of a payment from the investment manager to the Fund in 2004. Absent such payment, returns that include such year would have been lower. Average annual total return figures for Class A shares are calculated without and with the effect of the initial maximum sales charge. The average annual total returns (with sales charges) for all periods presented for Class A shares reflect the maximum initial sales charge of 5.75% that went into effect January 7, 2008. Effective June 4, 2007, there is no initial sales charge on purchases of Class C shares. The chart and tables do not reflect the performance of Class B, C, or R shares, which would differ due to different sales charges, fees and expenses. Return information on Class B, C, and R shares are available here.

A WORD ABOUT RISK

There are specific risks associated with global investing, such as currency fluctuations, foreign taxation, differences in financial reporting practices, and rapid changes in political and economic conditions. The stocks of smaller companies may be subject to above-average market price fluctuations. Because of the special risks involved with investing in securities of foreign issuers, an investment in the Fund should be considered speculative and not appropriate for individuals who require safety of principal or stable income from their investments. There is no guarantee that the Fund’s investment goals/objectives will be met, and you could lose money.

On November 7, 2008, RiverSource Investments, LLC (“RiverSource Investments”) completed its acquisition of J. & W. Seligman & Co. Incorporated. In addition, at special meetings held earlier in November 2008, the shareholders of each Seligman Mutual Fund approved a new investment management services agreement between each such Fund and RiverSource Investments and, if applicable, new subadvisory and delegation agreements. With the completion of the acquisition and the approval of these new agreements by shareholders of each Seligman Mutual Fund, RiverSource Investments is the new investment manager of the Seligman Mutual Funds effective November 7, 2008.
