Investment Objective & Strategy

From the investment's prospectus

The investment seeks to track the performance of a benchmark index that measures the investment return of small-capitalization value stocks.

The fund employs a "passive management"--or indexing--investment approach designed to track the performance of the MSCI US Small Cap Value Index, a broadly diversified index of value stocks of smaller U.S. companies. It attempts to replicate the target index by investing all, or substantially all, of its assets in the stocks that make up the index, holding each stock in approximately the same proportion as its weighting in the index.

Important Information Morningstar Investment Profiles must be accompanied by Morningstar Disclosure and Glossary.

Funds or their affiliates may pay compensation to ING affiliates offering a fund. Such compensation may be paid out of distribution, service and/or 12b-1 fees that are deducted from the fund's assets, and/or may be paid directly by the fund's affiliates. Any fees deducted from fund assets are discussed in the fund's prospectus and disclosed in the fund fact sheet. Because these fees are paid on an on-going basis, over time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges. If offered through a retirement program, additional fees and expenses may be charged under that program. NOT A DEPOSIT. NOT FDIC INSURED. NOT INSURED BY ANY FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AGENCY. NOT GUARANTEED BY THE INSTITUTION. MAY GO DOWN IN VALUE.
