Before investing, carefully consider the Fund's investment goals, risks, charges, and expenses. For a prospectus or summary prospectus containing this and other information, contact your financial advisor or visit thornburg.com. Read them carefully before investing.

Investments carry risks, including possible loss of principal. Additional risks may be associated with investments outside the United States, especially in emerging markets, including currency fluctuations, illiquidity, volatility, and political and economic risks. Investments in small- and mid-capitalization companies may increase the risk of greater price fluctuations. Portfolios investing in bonds have the same interest rate, inflation, and credit risks that are associated with the underlying bonds. The value of bonds will fluctuate relative to changes in interest rates, decreasing when interest rates rise. This effect is more pronounced for longer-term bonds. Unlike bonds, bond funds have ongoing fees and expenses. Investments in mortgage-backed securities (MBS) may bear additional risk. Investments in lower rated and unrated bonds may be more sensitive to default, downgrades, and market volatility; these investments may also be less liquid than higher rated bonds. Investments in derivatives are subject to the risks associated with the securities or other assets underlying the pool of securities, including illiquidity and difficulty in valuation. Investments in the Funds are not FDIC insured, nor are they bank deposits or guaranteed by a bank or any other entity.

The Better World International Fund's adherence to its ESG ratings process may affect the fund's exposure to certain companies, sectors, regions, and countries and may affect the Fund's performance depending on whether such investments are in or out of favor. This process may result in the Fund foregoing opportunities to buy certain securities when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so, or selling securities for ESG reasons when it might be otherwise disadvantageous for it to do so. Additionally, the process may result in incorrectly evaluating a company’s commitment to positive ESG practices and may result in investment in companies with practices that are not consistent with the Fund’s aspirations.

Thornburg mutual funds are distributed by Thornburg Securities LLC.

For ETF Class Shares:

The Advisor and certain Portfolios have received an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission permitting these Portfolios to offer both a mutual fund share class and an exchange-traded share class that operates as an ETF. Under this structure, the ETF class shares are listed and traded on a national securities exchange and are generally bought and sold at market-determined prices, whereas the mutual fund share classes are purchased and redeemed at the Portfolio’s net asset value next determined after receipt of the order. Because all of the classes of a multi-class Portfolio are based on the same portfolio, transactions through one class could generate portfolio transaction costs and tax consequences for shareholders in other classes. In addition, shareholders of the mutual fund and ETF classes of a multi-class Portfolio will have differing shareholder rights with respect to exchange privileges, how shares are purchased and redeemed, the timing of dividend declarations and payments, and the timing and ability to automatically reinvest dividends. For additional information regarding these differences, please see the applicable multi-class Portfolio’s prospectus.

Each Fund’s ETF Class shares are listed and traded on a national securities exchange and, unlike the Fund's mutual fund class shares, are not individually redeemable. In addition to ETF Class shares, the Fund offers one or more classes of mutual fund shares. An investment in the Fund’s ETF Class shares is not an investment in a mutual fund.

The Fund's ETF Class shares are distributed by ALPS Distributors, Inc.

Tax efficiency benefits associated with ETF Class shares are not guaranteed and may vary based on market conditions, portfolio activity, and shareholder transactions.

The Fund is actively managed and does not seek to replicate the performance of a specified index.

Expenses differ between the Fund's ETF Class shares and mutual fund share classes.

Risks associated with investing in the Fund's ETF Class shares may include, but are not limited to: (1) Investment Adviser Risk, which is the risk that the Adviser’s investment decisions may not produce the intended results. (2) Derivatives Risk, as the Funds’ use of derivatives—including futures, options, swaps, and forward contracts—may expose them to risks related to the underlying instruments as well as additional risks such as counterparty default, liquidity constraints, valuation difficulties, and potential delays in closing positions.
