American Beacon Emerging Markets Fund


Portfolio information as of June 30, 2007

Investment Advisors

American Beacon Advisors, Inc. acts as manager of the American Beacon Emerging Markets Fund, serving as the leader of a team of premier investment advisory firms. American Beacon Advisors employs a carefully designed process to select professional investment advisory firms for this multi-manager Fund. American Beacon Advisors evaluates the investment advisors, monitors their performance and process and ensures adherence to the Fund’s investment guidelines. The sub-advisors of the Fund are:

Morgan Stanley Investment Management Inc. 50.2%
The Boston Company Asset Management, LLC 49.8%


Investment Style

The Fund’s sub-advisors pursue equity securities of issuers that are primarily listed on the trading market of an emerging market country; are headquartered in an emerging market country; or derive at least half of their revenues from operations in an emerging market country. The Fund’s investments may include common stocks, preferred stocks, securities convertible into common stocks, and depositary receipts. American Beacon provides each sub-advisor with a limit of the maximum investment allowed in each emerging market country. Within those guidelines, each sub-advisor makes stock selection decisions based on their economic, market and company analyses.
