  The New Germany Fund, Inc.
    (NYSE: GF)

Investment Philosophy

The New Germany Fund is a diversified, closed-end investment company seeking capital appreciation primarily through investment in the Mittelstand - an important group of small and mid-cap. German companies. Its benchmark is now the new Midcap Market Performance Index, calculated by the Deutsche Börse. The Fund may invest up to 35% of its assets in large cap. German companies, and up to 20% in other Western European companies.

Risk

The fund may focus its investments in certain geographical regions, thereby increasing its vulnerability to developments in that region. Investing in foreign securities presents certain unique risks not associated with domestic investments, such as currency fluctuation and political and economic changes and market risks. This may result in greater share price volatility.

Investments in closed-end funds involve risk. Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously offered. There is a one-time public offering, and once issued, shares of closed-end funds are sold in the open market through a stock exchange. Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount to net asset value. The price of the Fund’s shares is determined by a number of factors, several of which are beyond the control of the Fund. Therefore, the Fund cannot predict whether its shares will trade at, below or above net asset value.
