COLUMBIA ACORN® FUND

IN A NUTSHELL


P. Zachary Egan Co-Portfolio Manager				Fritz Kaegi Co-Portfolio Manager


Matthew A. Litfin Co-Portfolio Manager

Market risk may affect a single issuer, sector of the economy, industry or the market as a whole. Investments in small- and mid-cap companies involve risks and volatility and possible illiquidity greater than investments in larger, more established companies. Foreign investments subject the Fund to political, economic, market, social and other risks within a particular country, as well as to potential currency instabilities and less stringent financial and accounting standards generally applicable to U.S. issuers. Risks are enhanced for emerging market issuers. The Fund may invest significantly in issuers within a particular sector, which may be negatively affected by market, economic or other conditions, making the Fund more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in the sector.

Columbia Acorn Fund Class Z shares fell 2.69% in the first quarter of 2016, underperforming the 0.39% gain of the Fund's primary benchmark, the Russell 2500 Index. Value names within the benchmark outperformed growth in the quarter, which hurt performance of the Fund's more growth-oriented portfolio.

The uptick in value stocks negatively impacted sectors that are more sensitive to growth expectations. These include the information technology (IT) and health care sectors, two areas that were weak for the Fund in the quarter. Within the IT sector, the Fund's overweight in the software and services industry was a significant relative detractor. Bankrate, a provider of internet advertising for the insurance, credit card and banking markets, fell 32% in the quarter on concerns around increased competition from Google. Given the increasingly uncertain competitive landscape for Bankrate, we opted to reduce the Fund's exposure to the stock during the quarter.

The health care sector in general suffered from concerns about the potential impact of the upcoming presidential election, and general fears that prices for drugs and other medical treatments will come under increased pressure going forward. While Fund holdings in the health care equipment and services industries performed in line with the benchmark, the Fund's overweight in the biotechnology sector was a detractor. Celldex Therapeutics, a biotechnology company developing drugs for cancer, reported that its brain cancer drug, Rintega, failed in a Phase III study, driving a 76% decline in its stock. Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical, a biotech focused on "ultra-orphan" drugs, declined 44%. Investors sold out of the stock primarily in sympathy with the broader biotech sell-off in the market. While the Fund held onto these stocks because we like the fundamentals of these companies and see value in their drug development pipeline, we do not expect to increase the Fund's weighting in the biotechnology sector.

Winners for the quarter came from various sectors. Quotient Technology (formerly Coupon.com), a company that allows consumer packaged goods companies to digitally distribute coupons, advertising and trade promotions, gained 55%. Quotient reported better-than-expected revenue and earnings for the fourth quarter and continued to show traction winning retailer partners. After a rough 2015, Generac, a manufacturer of standby power generators, rebounded in the first quarter, gaining 24%, as fourth quarter numbers topped expectations. Polaris Industries, a provider of leisure vehicles and related products, gained 17% as the market responded favorably to the company's

announcement of a large share repurchase program, and on fourth quarter results that exceeded marketplace estimates.

We have been working to reposition the Fund to provide improved performance. We added 25 new names to the Fund during the quarter and sold 52 positions, reflecting a pruning of lower-conviction, sub-scale positions. This is more new names added to the Fund in a quarter than in any other quarter in the past five years. We believe that our new idea generation is strong, and our analysts are busy.

What are we focusing on as we consider new stocks? In a market where many companies' base businesses are highly priced given low interest rates, we think one of the best sources of relative value in the market today is the ability to reinvest capital at high rates of return, and this is a characteristic of many of the stocks that we've added. The average estimated return on equity (ROE)* of the 25 stocks that we added in the quarter was 22% for 2016, which compares favorably to the Fund's 14% average estimated ROE prior to the addition of the new names. In addition to looking for companies that have high rates of return, we are also focusing on industry leaders that have shown consistent track records over time and that have future growth potential. We believe the higher quality portfolio that has resulted from our repositioning efforts should bring improved results going forward.

COLUMBIA ACORN INTERNATIONAL®

IN A NUTSHELL


P. Zachary Egan Co-Portfolio Manager				Louis J. Mendes Co-Portfolio Manager

Market risk may affect a single issuer, sector of the economy, industry or the market as a whole. International investing involves certain risks and volatility due to potential political, economic or currency instabilities and different, potentially less stringent, financial and accounting standards than those generally applicable to U.S. issuers. Risks are enhanced for emerging market issuers. Investments in small- and mid-cap companies involve risks and volatility and possible illiquidity greater than investments in larger, more established companies.

Columbia Acorn International Class Z shares ended the first quarter of 2016 up 0.13%, while the Fund's new primary benchmark, the MSCI ACWI Ex USA SMID Cap Index (Net), gained 1.03%. The Fund's underweight position and stock selection in the materials sector detracted from relative performance, as did underperformance of Fund stocks in the Asia ex Japan region.

International equities displayed a similar level of volatility as the U.S. equity markets in the first quarter. Divergent central bank policy, geopolitical risk and terrorist attacks, declining oil prices, and concerns about emerging markets were key themes, especially in January. In February, however, the investment backdrop began to shift in a more positive direction, as the U.S. Federal Reserve indicated that it would take a more gradual approach to raising rates, while both the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of Japan announced negative interest rate policies designed to spur growth.

The Bank of Japan's move to negative rates was a surprise and put downward pressure on Japanese government bond yields. As a result, Japanese real estate investment trusts (REITs) outperformed substantially, driven by demand from yield-hungry investors, while banks and insurers underperformed due to fears of significant compression of net interest spreads (i.e., the difference in their borrowing and lending rates). As we've seen in Europe over the past year, negative interest rates depress the profitability of many financial institutions, since they are unable to pass these costs onto depositors already earning close to 0%. At the end of the quarter, the Fund's main exposure to financials in Europe was through Spanish stock exchange Bolsas y Mercados Españoles and Swiss private markets asset management company Partners Group, neither of which operate spread lending business models. We see a particular opportunity in Japan, where the financials sell-off fails to adequately discount differences in business models. We believe high-yield consumer lending companies, such as Japanese regional bank Suruga Bank and Aeon Financial Service, a diversified consumer-related finance company in Japan, should be less affected by or even benefit from negative rates, as their borrowers are less rate sensitive and funding costs could decline along with overall interest rates. Japanese ATM operator Seven Bank, which collects transaction fees from ATMs installed in convenience stores, does not have a large lending operation, instead using deposits to fund working capital needs. We expect Seven Bank to be a beneficiary as funding costs decline. During the quarter, we added to select positions in Japanese financial stocks as valuations became very attractive,

focusing on names that should benefit or see limited downside from the negative interest rate policy.

We continued to focus the Fund in the quarter by reducing the number of holdings from 179 to 141. As part of this effort, we are also concentrating Fund assets in our highest conviction names to increase the impact these larger positions will have on overall portfolio performance. At quarter end, the top 15 names represented over 20% of the value of the Fund, while a year ago that number was 14%. As an example, we increased the Fund's position in Novozymes, a Danish maker of industrial enzymes, from 1.2% at the beginning of the period to 2.1% at quarter end, making it the Fund's second largest position. We have owned Novozymes for many years and hold it as part of our "game changers" theme, which includes companies that have the potential to transform an industry through innovation, in this case, the long-term substitution of chemicals with enzymes.

The Fund's top-contributing stock in the quarter was Canada's CCL Industries, a global label converter, which gained 18% following its acquisition of U.S.-based Checkpoint Solutions, a maker of anti-theft label systems. We believe the market expects that CCL will be able to extract significant cost and revenue synergies from this move, and that management guidance may be conservative. Rona, a Canadian home improvement retailer, was also strong in the quarter, gaining 90% following the February announcement that it was being acquired by Lowe's. We sold the Fund's position in the stock on the news. On the downside, Wirecard, a German provider of online payment processing and risk management services, fell 24% on allegations of criminal misconduct published by an anonymous and previously unheard of research organization. We believe the allegations are without merit and added to the position on the downturn. IHI, a Japanese industrial conglomerate, fell 49% in the quarter, as word reached the market that several of its projects in shipbuilding and overseas plant construction were exceeding budget estimates, and IHI's profitability drastically deteriorated. We sold the Fund's position in the stock.

In the first quarter, many of the faster growing, momentum-driven stocks that led the market during 2015 were laggards. We welcome the return of volatility to the marketplace, as we believe deep fundamental research can add more value when there is greater price dispersion and attentiveness to valuation.

COLUMBIA ACORN USA®

IN A NUTSHELL


Matthew A. Litfin Lead Portfolio Manager				William J. Doyle Co-Portfolio Manager

Columbia Acorn USA Class Z shares fell 6.04% in the first quarter of 2016, underperforming the 1.52% decline of its primary benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index. Poor stock selection, especially in software and some biotechnology names, was the main reason for the Fund's relative underperformance. The Fund was overweight versus the benchmark in both of these industry sub-sectors. In general, stocks rebounded in the final month of the quarter after a weak start to the year. Within the Russell 2000, utilities and telecommunication services stocks led returns, while health care and energy stocks had the biggest declines. Value stocks solidly outpaced growth stocks across all three major market cap ranges, and mid- and large-cap stocks outperformed small-cap stocks.

The worst detractor from performance in the quarter was SPS Commerce, a provider of supply chain management software that is delivered via the web. A disruption in its sales force caused SPS to set 2016 growth guidance below market expectations, and led to a 40% decline in its stock. We will continue to monitor their results.

In the biotechnology sector, Celldex Therapeutics, a cancer drug developer, fell 78% after its brain cancer drug, Rintega, failed in a Phase III trial. Orphan drug developer Ultragenyx Pharmaceutical fell 44%, declining with the general sell-off in biotechnology stocks in the quarter. Understanding that volatility is inherent in the sector, we roughly maintained the Fund's weight in biotechnology names. This is one of a decreasing number of industries in which the United States has a comparative advantage over other nations, and the Fund has enjoyed significant upside from exposure to biotechnology names in the past.

Among the Fund's top contributors in the quarter, Toro, a manufacturer of turf maintenance equipment, gained 18% on positive earnings news. ExlService Holdings, a provider of business process outsourcing services, gained 14% on quarterly results that beat expectations and on a favorable outlook for 2016. Our third strongest contributor to performance was Zoës Kitchen, a restaurant chain that offers fast, fresh Mediterranean-inspired food. Up 36% in the quarter, the company reported an increase in the number of customers coming to its restaurants, which are growing rapidly in the Southeast and beyond.

Zoës was one of 30 new names added to the portfolio in the quarter, a new-name total matched in only one other quarter during the life of the Fund. We sold 45 positions over the three-month period, reflecting a pruning of lower-conviction, sub-scale positions. As we considered new

names for the Fund, we focused on companies with high rates of return, that are industry leaders with significant future growth potential, and that can reinvest new capital at above-average rates of return. Together, the average estimated return on equity (ROE)* of the Fund's new names was 17% for 2016, which tops the 14% average ROE of the Fund's portfolio prior to the addition of these new holdings. We believe this focus on adding higher quality names to the Fund will improve relative returns as we move forward. We intend to continue finding interesting new ideas for the Fund and are optimistic about the outlook for small-cap stocks. Small caps today are as inexpensive as they have been relative to large caps in the last decade,^† and we believe they offer better growth potential in an environment where profitable growth can be hard to find.

Stephen Kusmierczak Co-Portfolio Manager				Andreas Waldburg-Wolfegg Co-Portfolio Manager

Market risk may affect a single issuer, sector of the economy, industry or the market as a whole. Foreign investments subject the Fund to political, economic, market, social and other risks within a particular country, as well as to potential currency instabilities and less stringent financial and accounting standards generally applicable to U.S. issuers. Risks are enhanced for emerging market issuers. Investments in small- and mid-cap companies involve risks and volatility and possible illiquidity greater than investments in larger, more established companies. The Fund may invest significantly in issuers within a particular sector, which may be negatively affected by market, economic or other conditions, making the Fund more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in the sector.

Columbia Acorn International Select Class Z shares fell 1.90% in the first quarter of 2016, underperforming the 0.38% decline of the Fund's new primary benchmark, the MSCI ACWI Ex USA Index (Net). Within this select Fund, the underperformance of two of its larger positions was the primary cause of the relative lag in the quarter. In general, international markets had a volatile start to 2016. January saw significant declines on concerns around diverging central bank policies, declining oil prices and the outlook for emerging markets. In February, the market took a more positive turn on news that the U.S. Federal Reserve would take a gradual approach to raising U.S. interest rates, while both the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of Japan announced negative interest rate policies designed to spur growth.

On the upside in the quarter, Canadian label maker CCL Industries announced the acquisition of U.S.-based Checkpoint Solutions, a maker of anti-theft label systems. We believe the market expects that CCL will be able to extract significant cost and revenue synergies from this acquisition, and that guidance may be conservative. Its stock gained 17% in the quarter. Partners Group, a Swiss investment manager focused on private equity, infrastructure, and real estate, gained 12% in the quarter after reporting a strong finish to the year. Fundraising from new and existing clients continues to exceed expectations, and margins have been buoyed by performance fees and good cost control.

The Fund's worst detractors in the quarter included Wirecard, a German provider of online payment processing and risk management services. Wirecard fell 23% in the quarter on allegations of criminal misconduct published by an anonymous and previously unheard of research organization. We believe the allegations are without merit and added to the position on the downturn. Sony Financial Holdings, a Japanese company offering life insurance, assurance and internet banking services, fell 26% in the quarter. The Bank of Japan's negative interest rate policy put downward pressure on Japanese government bond yields. As a result, banks and insurers underperformed due to fears of significant compression of net interest spreads (i.e., the difference in their borrowing and lending rates). Sony Financial Holdings fell victim to this decline, as a majority of its earnings come from the life insurance business. However, because Sony's investment portfolio has very long maturity periods, we believe that short-term volatility caused by the interest rate change should not have a significant impact. We added to Sony Financial's position on the decline, as we believe that the stock is attractively valued. Together, these two stocks represented more than

6% of Fund assets at quarter end and took nearly 2% away from the Fund's performance. In a portfolio of only 39 names, the impact of a single holding's performance is much greater, as we saw this quarter.

During the quarter, we completed the majority of the repositioning that we have been doing in the Fund. We sold out of 11 positions in the quarter and added five new names. The new names were mainly names we've covered and held in other Columbia Acorn Funds. Two of the larger positions were Rightmove, a UK provider of real estate listings, and Airports of Thailand, an airport operator in Thailand. In both cases, we believe the superior returns on capital they achieve to be sustainable. Rightmove's very asset-light business model is feeding on network effects, generating high operating margins, cash-flow conversion and shareholder returns. Airports of Thailand is benefiting from sustained double-digit growth in air travel from Asia, boosting revenues, margins and the return on capital.

Across the international funds that we manage at Columbia Wanger Asset Management, we have also added exposure to the budget airline space. We believe that the superior operating mechanics of budget airlines will continue to disrupt air travel in Europe, as the incumbent airlines deal with a restive labor force, inflexible route planning and overcapacity. Ryanair, the Irish market leader in the sector, was added in the quarter and gives the Fund exposure to this disruptive dynamic.

Columbia Acorn Select Class Z shares ended the first quarter of 2016 down 0.33%, underperforming the 3.78% gain of the Fund's primary benchmark, the S&P MidCap 400 Index. Within this select Fund, stock-specific declines were largely to blame for the quarter's lag versus the benchmark. We also saw investors move toward more defensive, high-yielding sectors like utilities in the quarter, which is an area we do not have exposure to in the Fund, but that performed well in the benchmark.

Two of the Fund's industrial names rebounded in the quarter. Up 24%, Generac, a manufacturer of standby power generators, reported better-than-expected earnings numbers and offered a positive outlook for 2016. Nordson, a maker of dispensing systems for adhesives and coatings, has struggled against U.S. dollar strength, as 80% of its business is in non-U.S. markets. A weaker dollar and company reports of increased orders in the first months of the year drove an 18% gain in the stock in the quarter. Polaris Industries, a maker of leisure vehicles and related products, gained 15% in the Fund, as the market responded favorably to the company's announcement of a large share repurchase program, and on fourth quarter results that exceeded marketplace estimates.

On the downside, Bankrate, a provider of internet advertising for the insurance, credit card and banking markets, retraced fourth quarter gains, falling over 30% in the first quarter on concerns around increased competition from Google. Given the uncertain competitive environment for Bankrate, we sold the stock. Blackhawk Network, a third-party distributor of prepaid content like gift cards, fell 26%. The company announced an earnings miss driven by changes at the retailer level that have negatively impacted its business. We sold the Fund's position in the stock. SEI Investments, a provider of mutual fund administration and investment management services, was a strong performer in 2015 but fell 24% in the first quarter. SEI has been a long-term holding in the Fund but reports of slower growth and increasing expenses, as well as lowered 2016 expectations, led us to sell the stock in the quarter. Union Agriculture Group, a farmland operator in Uruguay, continued its downward trend, falling 30% in the quarter.

We added eight new stocks to the Fund in the quarter and sold 12 positions, three of which are mentioned above. Among the new names, HRG, a holding company primarily consisting of two publicly traded companies (Spectrum Brands and Fidelity & Guaranty Life) ranked as the Fund's fifth largest position at quarter end. We like Spectrum Brands' operational strategy and view growth prospects favorably, and we feel HRG provides a better value than Spectrum Brands. Liberty Global, an owner of cable TV franchises outside the United States, was also added to the

Fund's top 10 positions in the quarter. Liberty Global boasts a strong and expanding cable infrastructure in Europe and the United Kingdom, where cable adoption is lower than in the United States. As we made adjustments to the portfolio in the quarter, we added some more defensive names and moved away from more speculative positions.

As a relatively new management team for the Fund, we actively refashioned holdings in the first quarter. We view these moves as consistent with the Fund's high-quality, growth-at-a-reasonable-price strategy and with our goal of bolstering long-term portfolio results.

Fund holdings are as of the date given, are subject to change at any time, and are not recommendations to buy or sell any security.

IN A NUTSHELL


David L. Frank Co-Portfolio Manager*				Christopher J. Olson Co-Portfolio Manager

A "fund of fund" bears its allocable share of the costs and expenses of the underlying funds in which it invests. Such funds are thus subject to two levels of fees and potentially higher expense ratios than would be associated with a fund that invests and trades directly in financial instruments under the direction of a single manager.

The value of an investment in the Fund is based primarily on the performance of the underlying funds in which it invests. The Fund is subject to the risk that the Investment Manager's decisions regarding asset classes and underlying funds will not anticipate market trends successfully, resulting in a failure to preserve capital or lower total return. The Investment Manager may prefer an underlying fund in the Columbia Acorn Family of Funds over alternative investments. There can be no assurance that the Columbia Acorn Funds will outperform similar funds managed by the Investment Manager's affiliates. This is not an offer of the shares of any other mutual fund mentioned herein.

Class Z shares of Columbia Thermostat Fund, our fund of funds, ended the first quarter of 2016 up 1.84%. This compares to a 1.35% gain of the Fund's primary equity benchmark, the S&P 500® Index, and a 3.03% gain of the Fund's primary debt benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. The Fund's custom 50/50 Blended Benchmark gained 2.28% in the quarter.

The Fund's equity portfolio had a weighted average loss of 0.62% in the first quarter, due largely to the 11.69% decline of Columbia Select Large Cap Growth Fund. The leading equity performer in the quarter was Columbia Dividend Income Fund, which gained 3.35%. The bond portion of the Fund had a weighted average gain of 1.83% for the period, led by the 2.92% gain of Columbia Total Return Bond Fund. All of the underlying bond funds offered positive performance in the quarter.

The Fund hit four reallocation triggers in the first quarter. The Fund increased stock exposure in January and February, as the markets lagged, and decreased exposure in March, as equity markets came back.

During the first quarter of 2016, we conducted the periodic review of underlying funds called for by Columbia Thermostat Fund's prospectus. As a result, the following changes will be effective with the Fund's May 1, 2016 prospectus:

• Columbia Income Opportunities Fund's weighting will decrease from 20% to 10% of the bond portfolio.

• Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund, a U.S. Treasury notes/bonds fund, will be added with a 10% weight in the bond portfolio.

• The stock/bond allocation table levels will be revised up 25 points. For example, the Fund will move to 10% stocks at an S&P 500 level over 2,250, up from 2,225. The Fund will move to 90% stocks at a level of 1,125 or less, up from 1,100.

We applaud the managers of Columbia Income Opportunities Fund for generating good historical returns while assuming only moderate risks. However, the Fund tends to correlate with stocks somewhat more than we would prefer. Replacing half of that position with Columbia U.S. Treasury Index Fund should result in less risk in Columbia Thermostat Fund.

* After 38 years at Columbia Wanger Asset Management, Charles P. McQuaid retired on April 29, 2016. Effective May 1, 2016, David L. Frank became a co-portfolio manager of the Fund, joining current co-portfolio manager Christopher J. Olson.

The Fund's investments in the underlying funds may present certain risks, including the following. Market risk may affect a single issuer, sector of the economy, industry or the market as a whole. The Fund's investment in other funds subjects it to the investment performance (positive or negative), risks and expenses of these underlying funds. Investments in small- and mid-cap companies involve risks and volatility and possible illiquidity greater than in investments in larger, more established companies. There are risks associated with fixed income investments, including credit risk, market risk, interest rate risk and prepayment and extension risk. In general, bond prices fall when interest rates rise and vice versa. This effect is more pronounced for longer term securities. Non-investment-grade (high-yield or junk) securities present greater price volatility and more risk to principal and income than higher rated securities. Foreign investments subject the Fund to political, economic, market, social and other risks within a particular country, as well as to potential currency instabilities and less stringent financial and accounting standards generally applicable to U.S. issuers. Risks are enhanced for emerging market issuers.

Market risk may affect a single issuer, sector of the economy, industry or the market as a whole. International investing involves certain risks and volatility due to potential political, economic or currency instabilities and different, potentially less stringent, financial and accounting standards than those generally applicable to U.S. issuers. Risks are enhanced for emerging and frontier market issuers. Investments in small- and mid-cap companies involve risks and volatility and possible illiquidity greater than investments in larger, more established companies.

Columbia Acorn Emerging Markets Fund Class Z shares fell 0.58% in the first quarter of 2016, underperforming the Fund's new benchmark, the MSCI Emerging Markets SMID Cap Index (Net), which gained 3.06%. As global concerns about China continued into 2016, the Fund's underweight in this market was a plus, but our Chinese stocks underperformed, hurting relative returns. Other heavily weighted markets in the Fund, including India and Korea, were overall detractors, while the Fund's underweight and stock selection in Taiwan benefited performance.

The Fund's lesser exposure to rebounding, commodity-driven markets also detracted from relative performance, as most of these markets saw their currencies strengthen against the U.S. dollar (USD) in the quarter. The Brazilian real, for example, strengthened 9% on positive rate news coming from the United States, the improved prospects for commodity prices, and on positive local reaction to the likely impeachment of Brazilian President Rousseff. The Brazilian stock market reacted favorably, and the Brazilian portion of the Fund's benchmark gained 25% during the quarter in USD. The South African rand and Malaysian ringgit also rebounded in the quarter, helping to boost returns for USD-based investors. While we were pleased to see the positive turn in these markets, we see little evidence of improvements in their structural issues, such as high dependency on commodity exports and weaker domestic manufacturing industries.

Fund performance benefited from our stock selection in the telecommunications space, where the Fund holds an eclectic mix of names. The Fund's five telecom stocks come from four different markets with varying industry focus, such as communications towers, mobile operations, and broadband and cable television service. During the quarter, we saw a strong rally in commodities as investors increased speculation on a possible recovery in Chinese demand, but we have historically been underweight this sector because of its largely undifferentiated business models and low returns on capital. The Fund's underweight in materials and utilities detracted from performance, and the positive impact of the Fund's overweight in energy was diluted by poor stock performance in the sector.

China continues to be an important area of investment for the Fund. Stock valuations in China are compelling and appear to be pricing in slower growth and a devaluation of the renminbi. We are maintaining our focus on unique businesses supported by structural tailwinds in China. For example, Silergy is a provider of analog and mixed digital integrated circuits operating in China. Silergy is uniquely

positioned—through a combination of western trained management, technical expertise and local relationships—to capitalize on the secular trends of increased information technology product manufacturing and consumption in China, and the Chinese government's strong desire to build a self-sufficient local semiconductor ecosystem. Silergy's stock, which is listed in Taiwan, was a top contributor to performance in the quarter, gaining 33%.

Another top-contributing stock in the quarter was South African asset manager Coronation Fund Managers. Its stock rose 47%, recovering from multi-year lows after fears of fund outflows moderated, and investors became attracted to the company's relatively high dividend yield. On the downside, Zee Entertainment Enterprises, an Indian programmer of pay television content, fell 11%, cooling after significantly outpacing the Indian market in 2015 even though advertising and subscription revenue growth remained robust. Ginko International, a contact lens maker in China that is also listed in Taiwan, fell 25% in the quarter, as investors sold Taiwanese stocks with large Chinese exposure due to concerns about the outlook for China's growth.

While growth rates in the global economy decelerate, many emerging countries are still delivering faster growth. In particular, disposable income growth should exceed that of GDP in key emerging countries due to favorable demographics and middle class growth, as a result of productivity improvements. Our emphasis on companies benefiting from such structural tailwinds remains unchanged. We believe that long-term investors should benefit from investing in high-quality businesses with good growth prospects at reasonable valuations, which can be found within our emerging market universe.

Effective February 1, 2016, Columbia Acorn Emerging Markets Fund re-opened to new investors and new accounts. While size will always be monitored closely in this Fund, we believe that we have capacity to add assets. We also believe the opportunities and current investment environment in most emerging markets provide a compelling entry point for new investors.

COLUMBIA ACORN EUROPEAN FUND^SM

IN A NUTSHELL


Andreas Waldburg-Wolfegg Co-Portfolio Manager				Stephen Kusmierczak Co-Portfolio Manager

Columbia Acorn European Fund Class Z shares gained 1.15% in the first quarter of 2016, outperforming the 0.87% decline of the Fund's new primary benchmark, the MSCI AC Europe Small Cap Index (Net). Strong stock selection contributed to the outperformance in most regions, with the Fund's overweight position in the Nordic region helping the most. In the Mediterranean region, the Fund's underweight versus the benchmark and good stock performance also boosted gains.

Within the Nordic region, Recipharm, a Swedish contract developer and manufacturer of pharmaceuticals, was a top contributor to performance, gaining 25% in the quarter. The company has been an aggressive consolidator in Europe and has recently expanded to India and the United States. Management and the company founders remain large owners and have strong incentives to build a sustainable and profitable business. In Finland, specialty paper manufacturer Munksjo gained 16% after it reported solid results in its core décor and release liner businesses, and raised its dividend 20%. Munksjo was the Fund's largest position at quarter end and a strong contributor to performance.

In the Mediterranean region, Prosegur, a Spanish company that provides guarding and cash-in-transit security in Europe and Latin America, enjoyed a recovery in the first quarter, gaining 24%. Last year, the company's exposure to Latin America was a drag on performance, but the stock came back in the period on solid results, strong revenue growth and a positive outlook for 2016.

On the downside, Wirecard, a German online payment processing and risk management company, fell 23% in the quarter and was the Fund's largest detractor. The company faced allegations of criminal misconduct that were published by an anonymous and previously unheard of research organization. We believe the allegations are without merit and added to the position on the downturn. Reversing direction in the quarter, SimCorp, a Danish developer of software for investment managers, fell 20%. SimCorp was one of the best-performing stocks in Denmark last year and suffered from profit-taking in the first quarter. We continue to like the stock and added to the position in the quarter. Based in the Netherlands, Arcadis, a provider of engineering consulting services, fell 32%. We sold the Fund's position in the stock on concerns around new writedowns on a previous acquisition, continued deterioration in its U.S. and emerging markets businesses, and our perception of poor risk controls within the company.

During the quarter, the Fund's underweight exposure to financials, specifically banks, was a positive for performance. We have maintained an underweight in

banks because European Central Bank (ECB) policies have been detrimental to the banking industry. This underweight, specifically in Italian banks, has hurt Fund performance in the past. For example, in Italy in 2015, expectations of bank consolidations enticed investors but failed to materialize because of continued interest rate declines and other macroeconomic concerns. We have been and continue to be bearish on the quality to be found in Italian banks, and were pleased to see our concerns acknowledged by the market in the first quarter. The Fund's overweight in the information technology sector was also a positive in the quarter, but declines in large holdings Wirecard and SimCorp hurt relative stock performance in the sector.

As we consider the European landscape at quarter end, some very large challenges face the continent. We have witnessed three deadly terrorist attacks taking place over 15 months, revealing systemic failures in Europe's security coordination. A British exit from the European Union is a growing possibility, and we believe would be negative for the United Kingdom and the European Union. There is rising anti-EU sentiment across Europe, as seen in recent elections in Scandinavia, Poland, Hungary, the Netherlands, Austria and France. European industry has benefitted enormously from free trade and travel following implementation of the 1985 Schengen accord. Recent terrorist attacks and worries about uncontrolled immigration have caused several states to restrict free personal movement across their borders, while still maintaining the free movement of goods. Long-term and tighter restrictions could eventually increase the costs of trade and travel in Europe.

As we noted last quarter, crisis is not new to Europe, and we have been able to find what we consider to be excellent investment opportunities during periods of uncertainty. Moreover, European small-caps were one of the strongest-performing areas of global equity markets last year and that strength has continued into 2016. We are seeing a generally positive outlook for earnings from companies poised to benefit from a weaker euro and ECB easing, and an overall increase in economic growth that should boost company profits. We remain focused on investing in companies with strong fundamentals, that we believe are industry leaders and that are good stewards of shareholder capital.

SQUIRREL CHATTER: PEAK EVERYTHING

Doom caused by depletion of natural resources

There have always been doomsayers. Richard Heinberg's Peak Everything, published in 2007, was a gloom-and-doom book primarily based on the premise that petroleum production was peaking. Heinberg noted that fossil fuels accounted for 85% of the world's energy supply and facilitated much of food production and extraction of other resources.¹

Due to an anticipated drop in oil production and depletion of other resources, Heinberg predicted that worldwide economic activity would begin to decline in 2008 and would not return to 2007 levels anytime soon, if ever. Heinberg advocated for an "enormous collective effort...coordinated presumably by government...educating and motivating" people to respond with "many years of hard sacrifice."²

Stating that "technology cannot solve the underlying dilemma we face as a result of our application of fossil fuels...," Heinberg advocated "a radical reduction of fossil fuel inputs to agriculture, accompanied by an increase in labor inputs..." He wrote that Cuba in the early 1990s serves as an example, as it switched to a labor-intensive, organic mode of production when the Soviet Union collapsed and no longer provided cheap oil. Cubans involuntarily adopted a largely vegetarian diet and some were forced to work on farms. He added that a minimum of 40 million additional farmers will be needed in America, as oil and gas availability decline.³

Prosperity while nature rebounds due to demographics and technology

Two thought leaders rebut Heinberg, painting a vastly different and much more prosperous future. In The End of Doom: Environmental Renewal in the Twenty-first Century, Ronald Bailey lists numerous previous depletion scares. The most recent, Hubbert's Peak, was based on the timing and size of oilfield discoveries and calculations of their combined decline rates. Production was to peak in late 2005 and decline forever. Yet cumulative production has far exceeded previous estimates of known oil reserves, and known reserves have actually been growing! With hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling, recovery rates are up in

conventional fields and shale oil and gas technology substantially increases reserves. Experts now see oil production plateauing at 110 million barrels per day in 2035, far above Heinberg's 82 million "peak" of 2005, and production at that rate for 40 years.⁴

Jesse Ausubel, in his essay titled "Nature Rebounds," notes that per capita petroleum usage in the United States peaked around 1970, and he charts data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration suggesting that crude oil consumption in the United States peaked in 2005. Vehicles are more efficient and more people live in cities. Self-driving cars will likely be shared and used more than personal vehicles, resulting in a drop in demand for vehicles. Commercial jets are about 70% more fuel efficient than jets of the 1960s, and further improvements are being introduced.⁵ It will likely take a while for world consumption to peak, but peak oil could be caused by peaking demand rather than supply.

Bailey also writes about changes in preferences when societies become wealthier and technology advances. He notes that high mortality drives high fertility as an offset, resulting in slow population growth. With improved medicine, sanitation and nutrition, population numbers can begin to explode. However, once people believe virtually all their children will survive, and families move to cities where children don't work and women become educated and have access to contraception, birth rates plunge. Since 1970, worldwide fertility has fallen from 4.7 children to 2.45 in 2013 and is continuing to drop. Bailey quotes research concluding that world population will reach about nine billion people by 2050, and will likely stabilize and then decline in the second half of the 21^st century.⁶ Peak population seems likely.

Bailey advocates technology-intensive agriculture, including the use of genetically modified organisms (GMOs). GMO plants began about 80 years ago when seeds were exposed to radiation, chemicals or ultraviolet light in order to change plant DNA. A small percentage of those seeds yielded attractive crops, such as the seedless watermelon, the Ruby Red grapefruit and 3,000 other crops. Some are now marketed as organic. More precise, gene-spliced GMOs were planted beginning in 1996. By 2013, 18 million farmers in 27 countries planted 433 million acres of what are considered biotechnology crops. Yield gains from 1996 to

2012 alone saved 300 million acres from being farmed. Pesticide usage dropped nearly 9% and conservation tillage was adopted, reducing topsoil erosion by 1 billion tons annually.⁷

Bailey takes on the anti-GMO crowd head on. He quotes numerous scientific sources who have determined that GMO foods are safe, including researchers who reviewed 1,700 GMO studies. One study that attempted to prove otherwise was retracted. Contrary to accusations by opponents of GMOs, biotech plants don't cause "superweeds" (weeds that become resistant to herbicides). Applying the same herbicide and failing to rotate crops for years allows weeds immune from that herbicide to emerge, whether the crop is biotech or not.⁸ However, Bailey fails to mention risks of biotech foods containing allergens, which are mitigated by approval processes that prevent allergens from being in GMO products approved for human consumption.⁹

Bailey has special wrath for third-world activists who apparently would prefer their countrymen starve rather than eat donated GMO food. For example, Indian activist Vandana Shiva claimed that such donations resulted in Indian disaster victims being used as "guinea pigs" despite the fact that Americans have been eating such food for years. Shiva also blamed farmer suicides on biotech cotton, which nearly doubled production and slashed pesticide use.¹⁰

Emerging technologies are also likely to boost crop yields. Plants are dependent on naturally occurring microbes in soil, and tests indicate that coating seeds with favorable microbes enhances yields.¹¹ Biotech scientists are also exploring ways of activating existing genes in plants that would make them better utilize water and nutrients.

Ausubel agrees that productivity of farmland has skyrocketed. Also, tastes have shifted from beef to chicken and farmed fish, which produce far more protein per pound of feed. And if food waste, currently at about a third of production, can be cut via better technology, further savings would occur. Ausubel argues that these factors, plus slowing population growth, suggest that peak farmland will occur despite improved nutrition. An area the size of India could revert back to nature in about 50 years.

Meanwhile, harvests of trees are shifting from slow growing northern forests to fast growing southern tree plantations. Ausubel wrote that Brazilian eucalyptus plantations annually provide 40 cubic meters of timber, compared with

7.4 in the U.S. southeast and 3.6 in northern areas. Assuming only that plantations in general are twice as productive as natural forests, if 75% of wood were to come from plantations rather than the current 33%, logging of natural forests would halve. In addition, paper is being displaced by technology, as mail, newspapers, magazines and books are delivered to electronic devices. These factors point to peak timberland.

The combination of some farmland reverting back to nature and increasing use of tree plantations has already resulted in reforestation in many parts of the world. Bailey notes that, excluding Brazil and Indonesia, forests of the world have increased about 2% since 1990.¹²

Bailey adds that known mineral reserves are defined as ores currently economically and technically practical to extract, while resources are ores eventually likely to be extracted.¹³ Reserves usually cover a few decades of consumption, spurring some to say that the minerals would subsequently be depleted. Yet miners have no incentive to find new supplies and develop new technologies for production that might be 20 or more years away. The United States Geological Survey estimates resources at well over 100 years of production for most minerals.

Production efficiency has also surged. Bailey cites data from University of Manitoba's Vacliv Smil showing that energy used to produce a ton of steel or synthetic nitrogen fertilizer dropped 80% since the year 1900 and to produce aluminum or cement, fell 70%. Energy to desalinate a gallon of water plunged 90% since 1970, and LED bulbs use about 90% less energy than incandescent bulbs producing the same amount of light. Bailey quotes a study calculating that material intensity per unit GDP in the United States dropped 75% since 1920.¹⁴

Ausubel notes that the economy is becoming dematerialized. A smartphone displaces a camera, film, a photo album, a radio, a tape or CD player, an alarm clock, a compass, a personal navigation device, a Rolodex, a calendar, maps, snail mail, newspapers, magazines, encyclopedias and of course a wired telephone. Also, people moving into cities consume less housing and transportation resources.

Ausubel refers to a study he conducted with Iddo Wernick and Paul Waggoner, which tracked usage of 100 commodities in the United States between 1900 and 2010. Some 36 have peaked in absolute use, with nasty

commodities like asbestos and cadmium leading the way. The authors believe another 53 commodities are poised to peak, including electricity, petroleum, cropland and water. Only 11 commodities are likely to see growing demand, including chickens and special metals used in electronics or alloys.

Poor countries tend to tolerate pollution, but Bailey writes that once per capita GDP hits about $10,000, people demand a cleaner environment. China has reached that level and its sulfur dioxide emissions likely peaked in 2006,¹⁵ while its coal consumption may be peaking this year.¹⁶ Peak pollution occurred in the United States decades ago. Bailey cites U.S. Environmental Protection Agency data from 1980 and 2011, which states that GDP rose 128%, vehicle miles 94%, population 37% and energy consumption 26%, while total emissions of six principal air pollutants dropped 63%.¹⁷ As more countries reach middle and upper income status, worldwide pollution should drop. Output of carbon dioxide, which not long ago was labelled a pollutant, more recently peaked in the United States, largely due to plateauing electricity production and a shift from coal to natural gas fired production.¹⁸ Wind and solar power have helped a little and are ramping up quickly.

Oceans are the primary exception to these favorable trends, as fish biomass continues to be depleted. Ausubel notes that 40% of seafood is now raised by aquaculture, and if the upward trend continues oceans can rebound. Bailey believes that almost all environmental problems center in areas that no one owns or has direct responsibility for maintaining, like our oceans. Self-interest drives exploitation of common resources—catch the fish before someone else does, or pollute if there is no direct cost of doing so.¹⁹ Extensions of property rights and responsibilities can solve these sorts of problems.

Bailey agrees that climate change could become a significant problem, though so far the climate has warmed less than 97% of what the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) models predicted. Also, given improvements in efficiency and dematerialization, carbon emissions will increase at predicted rates only if mankind continues to get rich. An IPCC-commissioned study created five scenarios for the year 2100, the middle scenario had the world population peak at 9.6 billion in 2065 and fall to 9.0 billion in 2100. Average income per person would hit $60,000, far above U.S. and world per capita income of

$42,000 and $10,000, respectively, achieved in 2010.²⁰ Bailey notes that much of the world will be more able to afford the cost of climate change mitigation as time goes on.

Bailey also believes that clean energy will become less costly than fossil fuels. He notes that global photovoltaic capacity has grown 10-fold from 2008 to 2016. Levelized cost of solar fell from $323 per megawatt-hour to $72 now, and if current trends continue, will fall to $24 in 10 years. That's cheaper than natural gas powered electricity currently at $33 and coal at $62, but does not cover costs to store solar power when the sun isn't shining. Batteries and other storage methods are improving, and breakthroughs are possible.

In the meantime, Bailey advocates ending government subsidies for fossil fuels, which he wrote cost $544 billion worldwide in 2012. Since nitrogen fertilizers account for most greenhouse gas nitrous oxide emissions, Bailey also advocates ending subsidies for agriculture and fertilizers in order to reduce overuse of fertilizers. Finally, Bailey advocates deployment of nuclear reactors that are impossible to melt down and research on fast-breeder reactors.²¹ Geoengineering should be researched to counteract climate change, should the need arise.

Conclusions and farewell

Long-time readers may remember that past "Squirrel Chatters" have covered many of the issues discussed above. Over the past 11 years, I've written on demographics, agriculture, natural gas from shale, photovoltaic energy and batteries. Population is in fact in a peaking process. Existing technologies are improving at moderate rates, which over time compound into huge gains. Technology breakthroughs have happened occasionally, and the scientific press suggests more are on the horizon.²²

I believe that the biggest risk to the rosy outlook is political. The public's knowledge of science is poor, and media and internet sources are often slanted. A recent editorial in Science magazine lamented the large opinion gap between scientists and the public on such issues as GMOs, vaccinations and global warming. Pressure groups could induce politicians to pass laws prohibiting or inhibiting progress. As I mentioned in my fourth quarter 2015 "Squirrel Chatter," the precautionary principle, which bans anything that might cause harm, would have stopped many of mankind's greatest innovations. Subject to these

caveats, I agree with Bailey's statement, "[H]umanity can look hopefully forward in the twenty-first century to an age of environmental renewal."²³

After 38 years, I will have fully retired from Columbia Wanger Asset Management by the time this essay is published. I've enjoyed being a security analyst and portfolio manager, and helping people achieve their financial goals. An additional benefit was being a witness to history, closely monitoring lots of favorable technological advancements and economic developments. I've also enjoyed writing "Squirrel Chatter," as it was a great excuse to do deep dives into interesting subjects and share the knowledge I gained. Thank you for reading and farewell.

Fair Value Measurements

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments, following the input prioritization hierarchy established by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

• Level 2 – prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others)

• Level 3 – prices determined using significant unobservable inputs where quoted prices or observable inputs are unavailable or less reliable (including management's own assumptions about the factors market participants would use in pricing an investment)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

Examples of the types of securities in which the Fund would typically invest and how they are classified within this hierarchy are as follows. Typical Level 1 securities include exchange traded domestic equities, mutual funds whose NAVs are published each day and exchange traded foreign equities that are not statistically fair valued. Typical Level 2 securities include exchange traded foreign equities that are statistically fair valued, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and short-term investments valued at amortized cost. Additionally, securities fair valued by CWAM's Valuation Committee (the Committee) that rely on significant observable inputs are also included in Level 2. Typical Level 3 securities include any security fair valued by the Committee that relies on significant unobservable inputs.

The Committee is responsible for applying the Trust's Portfolio Pricing Policy and the CWAM pricing procedures (the Policies), which are approved by and subject to the oversight of the Board.

The Committee meets as necessary, and no less frequently than quarterly, to determine fair values for securities for which market quotations are not readily available or for which CWAM believes that available market quotations are unreliable. The Committee also reviews the continuing appropriateness of the Policies. In circumstances where a security has been fair valued, the Committee will also review the continuing appropriateness of the current value of the security. The Policies address, among other things: circumstances under which market quotations will be deemed readily available; selection of third party pricing vendors; appropriate pricing methodologies; events that require fair valuation and fair value techniques; circumstances under which securities will be deemed to pose a potential for stale pricing, including when securities are illiquid, restricted, or in default; and certain delegations of authority to determine fair values to the Fund's investment manager. The Committee may also meet to discuss additional valuation matters, which may include review of back-testing results, review of time-sensitive information or approval of other valuation related actions, and to review the appropriateness of the Policies.

For investments categorized as Level 3, the significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Fund's securities may include: (i) data specific to the issuer or comparable issuers, (ii) general market or specific sector news and (iii) quoted prices and specific or similar security transactions. The Committee considers this data and any changes from prior periods in order to assess the reasonableness of observable and unobservable inputs, any assumptions or internal models used to value those securities and changes in fair value. Significant changes in any of these factors could result in lower or higher fair value measurements. Various factors impact the frequency of monitoring (which may occur as often as daily), however the Committee may determine that changes to inputs, assumptions and models are not required with the same frequency.

(a) Rounds to zero.

There were no transfers of financial assets between levels during the period.

The Fund does not hold any significant investments (greater than one percent of net assets) categorized as Level 3.

Certain securities classified as Level 3 are valued by the Committee at fair value, using a market approach, as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. To determine fair value for these securities, for which no market exists, the Committee utilizes the valuation technique it deems most appropriate in the circumstances, using some unobservable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to estimated earnings of the company and the position of the security within the company's capital structure. The Committee also may use some observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, trades of similar securities. Significant increases or decreases to any of these inputs could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

Fair Value Measurements

• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

• Level 2 – prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The Committee is responsible for applying the Trust's Portfolio Pricing Policy and the CWAM pricing procedures (the Policies), which are approved by and subject to the oversight of the Board.

COLUMBIA ACORN INTERNATIONAL®

STATEMENT OF INVESTMENTS (UNAUDITED), CONTINUED

> Notes to Statement of Investments

require fair valuation and fair value techniques; circumstances under which securities will be deemed to pose a potential for stale pricing, including when securities are illiquid, restricted, or in default; and certain delegations of authority to determine fair values to the Fund's investment manager. The Committee may also meet to discuss additional valuation matters, which may include review of back-testing results, review of time-sensitive information or approval of other valuation related actions, and to review the appropriateness of the Policies.

The following table summarizes the inputs used, as of March 31, 2016, in valuing the Fund's assets:

Investment Type	Quoted Prices (Level 1)		Other Significant Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total
Equities
Europe	$	-	$	2,792,071,459	$	-	$	2,792,071,459

Latin America		91,973,220		-		4,665,340		96,638,560
Total Equities		405,807,751		5,537,753,571		4,665,340		5,948,226,662
Total Short-Term Investments		256,946,692		-		-		256,946,692
Total Securities Lending Collateral		235,842,666		-		-		235,842,666
Total Investments	$	898,597,109	$	5,537,753,571	$	4,665,340	$	6,441,016,020

The Fund's assets assigned to the Level 2 input category are generally valued using a market approach, in which a security's value is determined through its correlation to prices and information from observable market transactions for similar or identical assets. Foreign equities are generally valued at the last sale price on the foreign exchange or market on which they trade. The Fund may use a statistical fair valuation model, in accordance with the policy adopted by the Board, provided by an independent third party to value securities principally traded in foreign markets in order to adjust for possible stale pricing that may occur between the close of the foreign exchanges and the time for valuation. These models take into account available market data including intraday index, ADR, and ETF movements.

There were no transfers of financial assets between Levels 1 and 2 during the period.

The Fund does not hold any significant investments (greater than one percent of net assets) categorized as Level 3.

Financial assets were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 as trading resumed during the period. As a result, as of period end, the Committee determined to value the security(s) under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board.

The following table shows transfers between Level 3 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy:

Transfers In				Transfers Out
Level 2		Level 3		Level 2		Level 3
$	34,937,684	$	-	$	-	$	34,937,684

Transfers into and/or out of Level 3 are determined based on the fair value at the beginning of the period for security positions held throughout the period.

Fair Value Measurements

• Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical securities

• Level 2 – prices determined using other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk and others)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The Committee is responsible for applying the Trust's Portfolio Pricing Policy and the CWAM pricing procedures (the Policies), which are approved by and subject to the oversight of the Board.

> Notes to Statement of Investments

The following table summarizes the inputs used, as of March 31, 2016, in valuing the Fund's assets:

Investment Type	Quoted Prices (Level 1)		Other Significant Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)		Total
Equities
Europe	$	-	$	55,824,407	$	-	$	55,824,407

Total Investments	$	19,095,209	$	103,351,449	$	684,248	$	123,130,906

There were no transfers of financial assets between levels during the period.

The Fund does not hold any significant investments (greater than one percent of net assets) categorized as Level 3.

Certain securities classified as Level 3 are valued by the Committee at fair value, using a market approach, as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. To determine fair value for these securities, for which no market exists, the Committee utilizes the valuation technique it deems most appropriate in the circumstances, using some unobservable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to estimated earnings of the company and the position of the security within the company's capital structure. The Committee also may use some observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, trades of similar securities and market multiples derived from a set of comparable companies. Significant increases or decreases to any of these inputs could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

Certain securities classified as Level 3 are valued by the Committee at fair value, using a market approach, as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. To determine fair value for these securities, for which no market exists, the Committee utilizes the valuation technique it deems most appropriate in the circumstances, using some unobservable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to estimated earnings of the company and the position of the security within the company's capital structure. The Committee also may use some observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, trades of similar securities and market multiples derived from a set of comparable companies. Significant increases or decreases to any of these inputs could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.

The following table summarizes the inputs used, as of March 31, 2016, in valuing the Fund's assets:

There were no transfers of financial assets between Levels 1 and 2 during the period.

The following table reconciles asset balances for the period ending March 31, 2016, in which significant observable and/or unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value:

Investments in Securities	Balance as of December 31, 2015		Realized Gain (Loss)		Change in Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation)		Purchases		Sales		Transfers Into Level 3		Transfers out of Level 3			Balance as of March 31, 2016
Equities
Asia	$	4,620,853	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	-	$	(4,620,853	)	$	-

Financial assets were transferred from Level 3 to Level 2 as trading resumed during the period. As a result, as of period end, the Committee determined to value the security under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board.

Transfers into and/or out of Level 3 are determined based on the fair value at the beginning of the period for security positions held throughout the period.

Certain securities classified as Level 3 are valued by the Committee at fair value, using a market approach, as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures established by and under the general supervision of the Board. To determine fair value for these securities, for which no market exists, the Committee utilizes the valuation technique it deems most appropriate in the circumstances, using some unobservable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to estimated earnings of the company and the position of the security within the company's capital structure. The Committee also may use some observable inputs, which may include, but are not limited to, trades of similar securities or indices and market multiples derived from a set of comparable companies. Significant increases or decreases to any of these inputs could result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement.
