The

Discovery
Stock
Fund
outperformed
the
MSCI
Emerging
Markets
Index
Net
in
the
12
months
ended
October
31,
2022.
Our
focus
on
undervalued
stocks
that
we
think
are
neglected
by
mainstream
investors
drove
outperformance
as
aggressive
interest
rate
hikes
and
recession
concerns
drove
steep
declines
in
major
markets.
Over
the
year,
we
increased
our
relative
exposure
to
China,
especially
by
adding
those
likely
to
benefit
from
the
reopening
of
the
world’s
second-largest
economy.
We
believe
that
emerging
markets
will
benefit
from
a
new
investment
cycle
driven
by
the
green
energy
transition.

Commentary

Dear
Shareholder
Nearly
all
major
global
stock
and
bond
indexes
fell
sharply
during
your
fund’s
fiscal
year,
the
12-month
period
ended
October
31,
2022,
as
investors
contended
with
persistently
high
inflation,
tightening
financial
conditions,
and
slowing
economic
and
corporate
earnings
growth.
Double-digit
losses
were
common
in
equity
markets
around
the
world,
and
bond
investors
also
faced
a
historically
tough
environment
amid
a
sharp
rise
in
interest
rates.
Value
shares
declined
but
outperformed
growth
stocks
by
a
considerable
margin
as
equity
investors
turned
risk
averse
and
as
rising
rates
put
downward
pressure
on
growth
stock
valuations.
Emerging
markets
stocks
generally
underperformed
shares
in
developed
markets.
Meanwhile,
the
U.S.
dollar
strengthened
versus
most
currencies
during
the
period,
which
weighed
on
returns
for
U.S.
investors
in
international
securities. 
Energy
was
one
of
the
few
bright
spots
for
investors,
as
oil
prices
jumped
in
response
to
Russia’s
invasion
of
Ukraine
and
the
ensuing
commodity
supply
crunch,
which
helped
some
commodity-exporting
nations
in
Latin
America
and
the
Middle
East
deliver
positive
equity
returns.
While
results
varied
somewhat
by
region,
typically
defensive
sectors,
such
as
utilities,
consumer
staples,
and
health
care,
also
held
up
relatively
well.
Conversely,
diminishing
consumer
confidence
put
a
damper
on
returns
in
the
consumer
discretionary
sector,
and
information
technology
and
communication
services
shares
also
suffered
large
reversals. 
Inflation
remained
a
leading
concern
for
investors
throughout
the
period.
The
war
in
Ukraine
exacerbated
already
existing
supply
chain
problems,
and
other
factors,
such
as
the
impact
of
the
fiscal
and
monetary
stimulus
enacted
during
the
pandemic,
exerted
upward
pressure
on
consumer
demand
and
prices.
While
investors
held
out
hope
that
inflation
had
peaked
during
the
summer,
inflation
measures
remained
elevated.
In
the
U.S.,
the
core
consumer
price
index,
which
excludes
volatile
food
and
energy
costs,
hit
a
40-year
high
in
September,
while
eurozone
inflation
reached
a
record
level
in
October’s
preliminary
report.  
In
response
to
persistent
inflation,
global
central
banks
began
to
tighten
monetary
policy.
The
Federal
Reserve,
which
at
the
end
of
2021
had
forecast
that
it
would
only
need
to
raise
interest
rates
0.75
percentage
point
in
all
of
2022,
rapidly
shifted
in
a
hawkish
direction
and
raised
its
short-term
lending
benchmark
from
near
zero
in
March
to
a
target
range
of
3.75%
to
4.00%
by
T.
ROWE
PRICE
Emerging
Markets
Discovery
Stock
Fund
2
early
November
and
indicated
that
additional
hikes
are
likely.
The
European
Central
Bank,
meanwhile,
raised
its
key
interest
rate
to
its
highest
level
since
2009. 
Bond
yields
increased
considerably
across
the
Treasury
yield
curve
as
the
Fed
tightened
monetary
policy,
with
the
yield
on
the
benchmark
10-year
U.S.
Treasury
note
climbing
from
1.55%
at
the
start
of
the
period
to
4.10%
at
the
end
of
October.
The
sharp
increase
in
yields
led
to
historically
weak
results
across
the
fixed
income
market,
with
the
Bloomberg
U.S.
Aggregate
Bond
Index
recording
its
worst
month
since
1980
in
September.
(Bond
prices
and
yields
move
in
opposite
directions.) 
On
a
positive
note,
the
U.S.
jobs
market
remained
resilient
during
the
period,
and
the
initial
reading
on
gross
domestic
product
for
the
third
quarter
returned
to
positive
territory
after
two
slightly
negative
quarters.
However,
recession
fears
also
grew
as
corporate
earnings
slowed
and
manufacturing
gauges
drifted
toward
contraction
levels. 
The
past
year
has
been
an
exceptionally
trying
time
for
investors
as
substantial
sell-offs
were
the
norm
across
both
stocks
and
bonds,
and
we
believe
that
volatility
may
continue
in
the
near
term
as
central
banks
tighten
policy
amid
slowing
economic
growth.
However,
in
our
view,
valuations
have
become
more
attractive
across
many
market
sectors
during
the
downturn,
which
provides
potential
opportunities
for
selective
investors
focused
on
fundamentals.  
We
believe
this
environment
makes
skilled
active
management
a
critical
tool
for
identifying
risks
and
opportunities,
and
our
investment
teams
will
continue
to
use
fundamental
research
to
identify
securities
that
can
add
value
to
your
portfolio
over
the
long
term. 
Thank
you
for
your
continued
confidence

COMMENTARY
How
did
the
fund
perform
in
the
past 12
months?
The
Emerging
Markets
Discovery
Stock
Fund
returned
-27.77%
in
the
12
months
ended
October
31,
2022.
The
fund
outperformed
the
MSCI
Emerging
Markets
Index
Net,
which
returned
-31.03%.
(Returns
for
the
Advisor,
I,
and

Class
shares

performance
cannot
guarantee
future
results
.)
What
factors
influenced
the
fund’s
performance?
Emerging
markets
stocks
fell
over
our
fiscal
year
due
to
the
effects
of
a
strong
U.S.
dollar,
which
was
driven
by
tighter
U.S.
monetary
policy
and
rising
Treasury
yields,
as
well
as
inflationary
pressures
brought
on
by
supply
bottlenecks
and
high
oil
prices
following
Russia’s
attack
on
Ukraine.
Continued
coronavirus
lockdowns
and
a
property
market
slump
in
China
also
weighed
on
the
global
growth
outlook.
From
a
country
perspective,
favorable
stock
selection
in
China
and
Taiwan
and
overweight
allocations
to
Argentina
and
Mexico
significantly
helped
relative
performance.
On
the
other
hand,
stock
selection
and
an
underweight
allocation
to
India,
adverse
stock
selection
in
Russia,
and
unfavorable
positioning
in
Hungary
detracted
from
relative
returns.
In
China,
our
holding
in
Yangzijiang
Shipbuilding
was
a
large
performance
contributor.
Our
investment
in
China’s
largest
private
shipbuilder
was
premised
on
a
recovery
in
global
shipping
demand,
which
was
reflected
in
strong
earnings
and
a
robust
order
book.
We
believe
that
the
company
has
strong
pricing
power
given
that
it
has
idle
capacity
at
a
time
when
global
orders
are
surging.

relative
returns
as
investors
sought
out
relatively
defensive
businesses
and
its
shares
outperformed
other
Chinese
names.
(Please

to
the
portfolio
of

for
a
complete
list
of
holdings
and
the
amount

in

portfolio.)
Our
position
in
Tenaris,
an
Argentina-based
manufacturer
of
seamless
and
welded
pipes
for
the
oil
and
gas
industry,
helped
relative
returns
as
the
company
recorded
strong
earnings
amid
an
upswing
in
global
drilling
activity.
In
Mexico,
our
holding
in
Grupo
Aeroportuario
Del
Pacifico,
which
operates
12
airports
across
the
country,
boosted
performance
as
commercial
air
traffic
between
the
U.S.
and
Mexico
rebounded
strongly
from
pandemic-depressed
levels.
Turning
to
detractors,
India
weighed
on
relative
returns
led
by
our
position
in
information
technology
services
company
Tech
Mahindra,
whose
shares
fell
after
its
management
undertook
a
series
of
acquisitions
resulting
in
weaker-
than-expected
margins.
Our
position
in
Hungarian
lender
OTP
Bank
hurt
relative
performance
after
Russia's
war
on
Ukraine
hit
Hungarian
financial
markets
and
the
country's
government
imposed
windfall
taxes
on
certain
entities
to
finance
energy
price
caps
for
households.
Russia
detracted
from
relative
returns
after
the
U.S.
and
Europe
imposed
sanctions
on
Moscow
shortly
after
it
attacked
Ukraine,
rendering
the
country’s
stock
market
largely
uninvestable.
As
a
result,
index
providers
MSCI
and
FTSE
Russell
removed
Russian
stocks
from
their
widely
used
benchmarks
in
March
at
a
price
that
was
effectively
zero.
From
a
sector
perspective,
positive
stock
selection
and
favorable
positioning
in
industrials
and
business
services
followed
by
information
technology
added
the
most
value.
Conversely,
negative
stock
selection
in
financials
detracted
the
most
from
relative
performance.
How
is
the
fund
positioned?
The
Emerging
Markets
Discovery
Stock
Fund
seeks
to
invest
in
undervalued
“forgotten
stocks,”
or
companies
that
most
large
investors
have
overlooked
for
various
reasons.
We
seek
to
identify
names
in
which
we
see
fundamental
changes
or
operational
improvements
that
can
lead
to
higher
valuations
over
time.
Recently,
our
research-intensive,
bottom-up
investment
approach
has
focused
on
self-help
stories,
companies
that
we
think
are
positioned
to
do
well
as
economies
reopen
after
the
pandemic,
and
“old
economy”
stocks
that
stand
to
benefit
from
the
renewable
energy
transition
and
a
recovery
in
corporate
spending.

In
the
real
estate
sector,
we
initiated
a
position
in
KE
Holdings,
a
cash-rich
online
and
offline
property
brokerage
platform
for
housing
transactions
and
services
in
China,
which
we
believe
has
strong
potential
to
gain
market
share
and
improve
margins.
We
also
started
a
position
in
Brazilian
mall
developer
Multiplan
Empreendimentos
Imobiliários.
In
addition
to
owning
the
highest-
quality
and
best-run
portfolio
of
mall
assets
in
Brazil,
we
think
that
Multiplan
is
well
positioned
to
become
an
industry
leader
as
consolidation
among
mall
operators
picks
up.
In
the
consumer
staples
sector,
we
started
positions
in
two
leading
Asian
food
companies
for
their
defensive
qualities
and
attractive
valuations.
We
purchased
CJ
CheilJedang,
a
leading
South
Korean
packaged
and
frozen
foods
company
that
demonstrated
its
ability
to
pass
higher
costs
onto
customers.
We
also
initiated
a
position
in
Tingyi
(Cayman
Islands),
a
seller
of
instant
noodles,
beverages,
and
convenience
foods
in
China,
which
we
believe
has
strong
margin
improvement
potential
as
commodity
inflation
pressures
recede.
Other
significant
purchases
included
China
Oilfield
Services,
one
of
the
country’s
largest
oil
services
companies,
which
we
believe
will
benefit
from
rising
oil
and
gas
capital
spending
globally.
In
the
industrials
and
business
services
sector,
we
identified
several
attractively
valued
names
that
are
levered
to
the
capital
expenditure
cycle.
We
started
a
position
in
Weichai
Power,
a
leading
combustion
engine
manufacturer
and
commercial
vehicle
parts
supplier,
due
to
its
potential
to
take
market
share
as
capital
spending
picks
up
in
China.
We
also
initiated
a
position
in
Bizlink,
a
Taiwan-based
manufacturer
of
optical
fiber
and
other
connectivity
products,
which
we
think
has
strong
appreciation
potential
driven
by
its
auto
and
health
care
businesses.
From
a
country
standpoint,
we
increased
our
relative
exposure
to
China
by
adding
companies
likely
to
benefit
from
a
pickup
in
economic
activity
after
the
government
relaxed
a
ban
on
inter-provincial
travel
during
the
period.
We
initiated
a
position
in
Trip.com,
a
dominant
online
travel
agency,
as
we
positioned
ourselves
ahead
of
the
removal
of
coronavirus
restrictions.
We
bought
shares
in
Tongcheng
Travel
Holdings,
an
online
travel
agency
focused
on
consumers
in
China's
smaller,
lower-tier
cities
that
have
solid
long-term
growth
potential.
We
also
increased
our
holding
in
Tsingtao
Brewery,
which
should
benefit
from
easing
cost
pressures
as
commodity
prices
peak.
The
brewer's
third-quarter
volume
increased
due
to
hot
weather
and
fewer
lockdowns.

Our
Brazil
exposure
increased
as
the
country
outperformed
amid
expectations
for
faster
economic
growth
and
an
end
to
aggressive
monetary
tightening.
We
eliminated
our
Russian
positions
after
Russia’s
invasion
of
Ukraine
in
February
resulted
in
widespread
sanctions
on
Moscow
and
the
removal
of
Russian
assets
from
most
global
benchmarks.
What
is
portfolio
management’s
outlook?
Inflation
surged
and
global
central
banks
continue
to
aggressively
hike
interest
rates
during
our
fiscal
year,
increasing
the
risk
of
a
global
recession.
Although
the
impact
from
elevated
inflation
and
geopolitical
turmoil
may
persist
in
the
near
term,
we
believe
that
these
risks
may
already
be
reflected
in
asset
prices.
We
believe
that
the
capital
spending
cycle
and
rising
interest
rates
can
bolster
returns
for
value-oriented
areas,
particularly
for
companies
in
the
financials,
industrials,
and
utilities
sectors.
The
downturn
in
emerging
markets
stocks
over
the
past
year
has
made
valuations
in
our
universe
more
compelling.
We
have
long
held
that
fundamental
changes
occurring
on
the
ground
are
more
important
performance
drivers
for
our
holdings
than
geopolitical
or
macroeconomic
developments.
In
China,
we
believe
that
a
hoped-for
relaxation
of
coronavirus
restrictions
and
the
government’s
goal
of
carbon
neutrality
by
2060
can
drive
investment
and
economic
growth
and
have
positioned
our
holdings
to
benefit
from
an
expected
recovery.
We
believe
that
the
backdrop
is
also
favorable
for
consumers
in
Brazil
as
inflation
may
have
reached
a
peak.
However,
we
remain
neutral
on
Brazil
as
the
country's
politics
and
currency
volatility
are
key
risks.

PRINCIPAL
RISKS
Emerging
markets.
Investments
in
emerging
market
countries
are
subject
to
greater
risk
and
overall
volatility
than
investments
in
the
U.S.
and
other
developed
markets.
Emerging
market
countries
tend
to
have
economic
structures
that
are
less
diverse
and
mature,
less
developed
legal
and
regulatory
regimes,
and
political
systems
that
are
less
stable
than
those
of
developed
countries.
In
addition
to
the
risks
associated
with
investing
outside
the
U.S.,
emerging
markets
are
more
susceptible
to
governmental
interference,
political
and
economic
uncertainty,
local
taxes
and
restrictions
on
the
fund’s
investments,
less
efficient
trading
markets
with
lower
overall
liquidity,
and
more
volatile
currency
exchange
rates.
Value
investing.
The
fund’s
value
approach
to
investing
could
cause
it
to
underperform
other
stock
funds
that
employ
a
different
investment
style.
The
intrinsic
value
of
a
stock
with
value
characteristics
may
not
be
fully
recognized
by
the
market
for
a
long
time,
or
a
stock
judged
to
be
undervalued
may
be
appropriately
priced
at
a
low
level.
Value
stocks
may
fail
to
appreciate
for
long
periods
and
may
never
reach
what
the
adviser
believes
are
their
full
market
values.
Market
conditions.
The
value
of
the
fund’s
investments
may
decrease,
sometimes
rapidly
or
unexpectedly,
due
to
factors
affecting
an
issuer
held
by
the
fund,
particular
industries,
or
the
overall
securities
markets.
A
variety
of
factors
can
increase
the
volatility
of
the
fund’s
holdings
and
markets
generally,
including
political
or
regulatory
developments,
recessions,
inflation,
rapid
interest
rate
changes,
war
or
acts
of
terrorism,
natural
disasters,
and
outbreaks
of
infectious
illnesses
or
other
widespread
public
health
issues
such
as
the
coronavirus
pandemic
and
related
governmental
and
public
responses.
Certain
events
may
cause
instability
across
global
markets,
including
reduced
liquidity
and
disruptions
in
trading
markets,
while
some
events
may
affect
certain
geographic
regions,
countries,
sectors,
and
industries
more
significantly
than
others.
Government
intervention
in
markets
may
impact
interest
rates,
market
volatility,
and
security
pricing.
These
adverse
developments
may
cause
broad
declines
in
market
value
due
to
short-term
market
movements
or
for
significantly
longer
periods
during
more
prolonged
market
downturns.

EXPENSE
RATIO
FUND
EXPENSE
EXAMPLE
As
a
mutual
fund
shareholder,
you
may
incur
two
types
of
costs:
(1)
transaction
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees
or
sales
loads,
and
(2)
ongoing
costs,
including
management
fees,
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fees,
and
other
fund
expenses.
The
following
example
is
intended
to
help
you
understand
your
ongoing
costs
(in
dollars)
of
investing
in
the
fund
and
to
compare
these
costs
with
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
other
mutual
funds.
The
example
is
based
on
an
investment
of
$1,000
invested
at
the
beginning
of
the
most
recent
six-month
period
and
held
for
the
entire
period.
Please
note
that
the
fund
has
four
share
classes:
The
original
share
class
(Investor
Class)
charges
no
distribution
and
service
(12b-1)
fee,
Advisor
Class
shares
are
offered
only
through
unaffiliated
brokers
and
other
financial
intermediaries
and
charge
a
0.25%
12b-1
fee,
I
Class
shares
are
available
to
institutionally
oriented
clients
and
impose
no
12b-1
or
administrative
fee
payment,
and
Z
Class
shares
are
offered
only
to
funds
advised
by
T.
Rowe
Price
and
other
advisory
clients
of
T.
Rowe
Price
or
its
affiliates
that
are
subject
to
a
contractual
fee
for
investment
management
services
and
impose
no
12b-1
fee
or
administrative
fee
payment.
Each
share
class
is
presented
separately
in
the
table.
Actual
Expenses
The
first
line
of
the
following
table
(Actual)
provides
information
about
actual
account
values
and
expenses
based
on
the
fund’s
actual
returns.
You
may
use
the
information
on
this
line,
together
with
your
account
balance,
to
estimate
the
expenses
that
you
paid
over
the
period.
Simply
divide
your
account
value
by
$1,000
(for
example,
an
$8,600
account
value
divided
by
$1,000
=
8.6),
then
multiply
the
result
by
the
number
on
the
first
line
under
the
heading
“Expenses
Paid
During
Period”
to
estimate
the
expenses
you
paid
on
your
account
during
this
period. 
Hypothetical
Example
for
Comparison
Purposes
The
information
on
the
second
line
of
the
table
(Hypothetical)
is
based
on
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
derived
from
the
fund’s
actual
expense
ratio
and
an
assumed
5%
per
year
rate
of
return
before
expenses
(not
the
fund’s
actual
return).
You
may
compare
the
ongoing
costs
of
investing
in
the
fund
with
other
funds
by
contrasting
this
5%
hypothetical
example
and
the
5%
hypothetical
examples
that
appear
in
the
shareholder
reports
of
the
other
funds.
The
hypothetical
account
values
and
expenses
may
not
be
used
to
estimate
the
actual
ending
account
balance
or
expenses
you
paid
for
the
period.

Note:
T.
Rowe
Price
charges
an
annual
account
service
fee
of
$20,
generally
for
accounts
with
less
than
$10,000.
The
fee
is
waived
for
any
investor
whose
T.

mutual
fund
accounts
total
$50,000
or
more;
accounts
electing
to
receive
electronic

shareholder

or
accounts
of
an
investor
who
is
a
T.

Personal

Enhanced

client
(enrollment
in
these
programs
generally
requires
T.
Rowe
Price
assets
of
at
least
$250,000).
This
fee
is
not
included
in
the
accompanying
table.
If
you
are
subject
to
the
fee,
keep
it
in
mind
when
you
are
estimating
the
ongoing
expenses
of
investing
in
the
fund
and
when
comparing
the
expenses
of
this
fund
with
other
funds.
You
should
also
be
aware
that
the
expenses
shown
in
the
table
highlight
only
your
ongoing
costs
and
do
not
reflect
any
transaction
costs,
such
as
redemption
fees
or
sales
loads.
Therefore,
the
second
line
of
the
table
is
useful
in
comparing
ongoing
costs
only
and
will
not
help
you
determine
the
relative
total
costs
of
owning
different
funds.
To
the
extent
a
fund
charges
transaction
costs,
however,
the
total
cost
of
owning
that
fund
is
higher.

International
Funds,

(the

the

Company
Act
of

The
Emerging

Fund
(the

is a
diversified,
open-end
management
investment
company
established
by
the
corporation. The
fund
seeks
long-term
growth
of

The

the
Emerging

Class
(Z

Advisor
Class
shares
are
sold
only
through
various
brokers
and
other
financial
intermediaries.
I
Class
shares
require
a
$500,000
initial
investment
minimum,
although
the
minimum
generally
is
waived
or
reduced
for
financial
intermediaries,
eligible
retirement
plans,
and
certain
other
accounts.
Prior
to
November
15,
2021,
the
initial
investment
minimum
was
$1
million
and
was
generally
waived
for
financial
intermediaries,
eligible
retirement
plans,
and
other
certain
accounts.
As
a
result
of
the
reduction
in
the
I
Class
minimum,
certain
assets
transferred
from
the
Investor
Class
to
the
I
Class.
This
transfer
of
shares
from
Investor
Class
to
I
Class
is
reflected
in
the
Statement
of
Changes
in
Net
Assets
within
the
Capital
shares
transactions
as
Shares
redeemed
and
Shares
sold,
respectively.
The
Z
Class
is
only
available
to
funds
advised
by
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
and
its
affiliates
and
other
clients
that
are
subject
to
a
contractual
fee
for
investment
management
services.
The
Advisor
Class
operates
under
a
Board-approved
Rule
12b-1
plan
pursuant
to
which
the
class
compensates
financial
intermediaries
for
distribution,
shareholder
servicing,
and/
or
certain
administrative
services;
the
Investor,
I
and
Z
Classes
do
not
pay
Rule
12b-1
fees. Each
class
has
exclusive
voting
rights
on
matters
related
solely
to
that
class;
separate
voting
rights
on
matters
that
relate
to
all
classes;
and,
in
all
other
respects,
the
same
rights
and
obligations
as
the
other
classes.

Capital
Transactions
 Each

is
represented
by

is
computed
at
the
close
of
the
New
York
Stock
Exchange
(NYSE),
normally
4
p.m.
ET,
each
day
the
NYSE
is
open
for
business.
However,
the
NAV

may
be
calculated
at
a
time
other

if
trading
on

is
restricted,
if
the

closes
earlier,
or
as
may
be
permitted
by
the

New
Accounting

 In

the
FASB
issued
Accounting

Update
(ASU),
ASU
2022-03,
Fair
Value
Measurement
(Topic
820)
Fair
Value
Measurement
of
Equity
Securities
Subject
to
Contractual
Sale
Restrictions,
which
clarifies
that
a
contractual
restriction
on
the
sale
of
an
equity
security
is
not
considered
part
of
the
unit
of
account
of
the
equity
security
and,
therefore,
is
not
considered
in
measuring
fair
value.
The
amendments
under
this
ASU
are
effective
for
fiscal
years
beginning
after
December
15,
2023;
however,
early
adoption
is
permitted.
Management
expects
that
the
adoption
of
the
guidance
will
not
have
a
material
impact
on
the fund's
financial  statements.
Indemnification
 In
the
normal
course
of
business, the
fund
may
provide
indemnification
in
connection
with
its
officers
and
directors,
service
providers,
and/or
private
company
investments. The
fund’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown;
however,
the
risk
of
material
loss
is
currently
considered
to
be
remote.

VALUATION 
Fair
Value
  The
fund’s
financial
instruments
are
valued
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE
and
are
reported
at
fair
value,
which
GAAP
defines
as
the
price
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date. The fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(the
Board)
has
designated
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
as
the
fund’s
valuation
designee
(Valuation
Designee).
Subject
to
oversight
by
the
Board,
the
Valuation
Designee
performs
the
following
functions
in
performing
fair
value
determinations:
assesses
and
manages
valuation
risks;
establishes
and
applies
fair
value
methodologies;
tests
fair
value
methodologies;
and
evaluates
pricing
vendors
and
pricing
agents.
The
duties
and
responsibilities
of
the
Valuation
Designee
are
performed
by
its
Valuation
Committee. The
Valuation
Designee provides
periodic
reporting
to
the
Board
on
valuation
matters.
Various
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
are
used
to
determine
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments.
GAAP
establishes
the
following
fair
value
hierarchy
that
categorizes
the
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value:
Level
1
quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
for
identical
financial
instruments
that
the
fund
can
access
at
the
reporting
date
Level
2
inputs
other
than
Level
1
quoted
prices
that
are
observable,
either
directly
or
indirectly
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
financial
instruments
in
active
markets,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
financial
instruments
in
inactive
markets,
interest
rates
and
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
and
credit
spreads)

unobservable
inputs
(including
the Valuation
Designee’s assumptions
in
determining
fair
value)
Observable
inputs
are
developed
using
market
data,
such
as
publicly
available
information
about
actual
events
or
transactions,
and
reflect
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
Unobservable
inputs
are
those
for
which
market
data
are
not
available
and
are
developed
using
the
best
information
available
about
the
assumptions
that
market
participants
would
use
to
price
the
financial
instrument.
GAAP
requires
valuation
techniques
to
maximize
the
use
of
relevant
observable
inputs
and
minimize
the
use
of
unobservable
inputs.
When
multiple
inputs
are
used
to
derive
fair
value,
the
financial
instrument
is
assigned
to
the
level
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy
based
on
the
lowest-level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
of
the
financial
instrument.
Input
levels
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
or
liquidity
associated
with
financial
instruments
at
that
level
but
rather
the
degree
of
judgment
used
in
determining
those
values.
Valuation
Techniques 
Equity
securities,
including
exchange-traded
funds, listed
or
regularly
traded
on
a
securities
exchange
or
in
the
over-the-counter
(OTC)
market
are
valued
at
the
last
quoted
sale
price
or,
for
certain
markets,
the
official
closing
price
at
the
time
the
valuations
are
made.
OTC
Bulletin
Board
securities
are
valued
at
the
mean
of
the
closing
bid
and
asked
prices.
A
security
that
is
listed
or
traded
on
more
than
one
exchange
is
valued
at
the
quotation
on
the
exchange
determined
to
be
the
primary
market
for
such
security.
Listed
securities
not
traded
on
a
particular
day
are
valued
at
the
mean
of
the
closing
bid
and
asked
prices
for
domestic
securities
and
the
last
quoted
sale
or
closing
price
for
international
securities.
The
last
quoted
prices
of
non-U.S.
equity
securities
may
be
adjusted
to
reflect
the
fair
value
of
such
securities
at
the
close
of
the
NYSE,
if
the Valuation
Designee
determines
that
developments
between
the
close
of
a
foreign
market
and
the
close
of
the
NYSE
will
affect
the
value
of
some
or
all
of the
fund’s
portfolio
securities.
Each
business
day,
the
Valuation
Designee uses
information
from
outside
pricing
services
to
evaluate
and,
if
appropriate,
decide whether
it
is
necessary
to
adjust
quoted
prices
to
reflect
fair
value
by
reviewing
a
variety
of
factors,
including
developments
in
foreign
markets,
the
performance
of
U.S.
securities
markets,
and
the
performance
of
instruments
trading
in
U.S.
markets
that
represent
foreign
securities
and
baskets
of
foreign
securities. The Valuation
Designee
uses
outside
pricing
services
to
provide
it
with
quoted
prices
and
information
to
evaluate
or
adjust
those
prices.
The Valuation
Designee
cannot
predict
how
often
it
will
use
quoted
prices
and
how
often
it
will
determine
it
necessary
to
adjust
those
prices
to
reflect
fair
value.

which
approximates
fair

Investments
for
which

not

available
or
deemed
unreliable
are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
by
the
Valuation
Designee.
The
Valuation
Designee
has
adopted
methodologies
for
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available
or
deemed
unreliable,
including
the
use
of
other
pricing
sources.
Factors
used
in
determining
fair
value
vary
by
type
of
investment
and
may
include
market
or
investment
specific
considerations.
The
Valuation
Designee typically
will
afford
greatest
weight
to
actual
prices
in
arm’s
length
transactions,
to
the
extent
they
represent
orderly
transactions
between
market
participants,
transaction
information
can
be
reliably
obtained,
and
prices
are
deemed
representative
of
fair
value.
However,
the
Valuation
Designee may
also
consider
other
valuation
methods
such
as
market-based
valuation
multiples;
a
discount
or
premium
from
market
value
of
a
similar,
freely
traded
security
of
the
same
issuer;
discounted
cash
flows;
yield
to
maturity;
or
some
combination.
Fair
value
determinations
are
reviewed
on
a
regular
basis.
Because
any
fair
value
determination
involves
a
significant
amount
of
judgment,
there
is
a
degree
of
subjectivity
inherent
in
such
pricing
decisions. Fair
value
prices
determined
by
the
Valuation
Designee could
differ
from
those
of
other
market
participants,
and
it
is
possible
that
the
fair
value
determined
for
a
security
may
be
materially
different
from
the
value
that
could
be
realized
upon
the
sale
of
that
security.

to
certain
risks
and/or
to
enhance
performance.
The
investment
objective,
policies,
program,
and
risk
factors
of
the
fund
are
described
more
fully
in
the
fund’s
prospectus
and
Statement
of
Additional
Information.
Emerging
and
Frontier
Markets
 The fund
invests,
either
directly
or
through
investments
in
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
in
securities
of
companies
located
in,
issued
by
governments
of,
or
denominated
in
or
linked
to
the
currencies
of
emerging
and
frontier
market
countries.
Emerging
markets,
and
to
a
greater
extent
frontier
markets, tend
to
have
economic
structures
that
are
less
diverse
and
mature,
less
developed
legal
and
regulatory
regimes,
and
political
systems
that
are
less
stable,
than
those
of
developed
countries.
These
markets
may
be
subject
to
greater
political,
economic,
and
social
uncertainty
and
differing
accounting
standards
and
regulatory
environments
that
may
potentially
impact
the
fund’s
ability
to
buy
or
sell
certain
securities
or
repatriate
proceeds
to
U.S.
dollars.
Emerging
markets
securities
exchanges
are
more
likely
to
experience
delays
with
the
clearing
and
settling
of
trades,
as
well
as
the
custody
of
holdings
by
local
banks,
agents,
and
depositories.
Such
securities
are
often
subject
to
greater
price
volatility,
less
liquidity,
and
higher
rates
of
inflation
than
U.S.
securities.
Investing
in
frontier
markets
is
typically
significantly
riskier
than
investing
in
other
countries,
including
emerging
markets.
Depositary
Receipts
 The
fund
invests
in
American
Depositary
Receipts
(ADRs),
Global
Depositary
Receipts
(GDRs),
and
other
depository
receipts,
which
are
certificates
issued
by
U.S.
and
international
institutions,
such
as
a
bank
or
trust
company,
that
represent
ownership
of
foreign
securities
held
by
the
issuing
institution.
Depositary
receipts
are
transferable,
trade
on
established
markets,
and
entitle
the
holder
to
all
dividends
paid
by
the
underlying
foreign
security.
Issuing
institutions
generally
charge
a
security
administration
fee. 
Securities
Lending
 The fund
may
lend
its
securities
to
approved
borrowers
to
earn
additional
income.
Its
securities
lending
activities
are
administered
by
a
lending
agent
in
accordance
with
a
securities
lending
agreement.
Security
loans
generally
do
not
have
stated
maturity
dates,
and
the
fund
may
recall
a
security
at
any
time.
The
fund
receives
collateral
in
the
form
of
cash
or
U.S.
government
securities.
Collateral
is
maintained
over
the
life
of
the
loan
in
an
amount
not
less
than
the
value
of
loaned
securities;
any
additional
collateral
required
due
to
changes
in
security
values
is
delivered
to
the
fund
the
next
business
day.
Cash
collateral
is
invested
in
accordance
with
investment
guidelines
approved
by
fund
management.
Additionally,
the
lending
agent
indemnifies
the
fund
against
losses
resulting
from
borrower
default.

if
the
borrower
fails
to
return
the
securities,
collateral
investments
decline

and
the

consists
of

Rowe
Price

Inc.
(Price

a
wholly
owned
subsidiary
of
T.
Rowe
Price

Inc.
(Price

Associates
has
entered
into
a
sub-advisory
agreement(s)
with
one
or
more
of
its
wholly
owned
subsidiaries,
to
provide
investment
advisory
services
to
the
fund.
The
investment
management
agreement
between
the
fund
and
Price
Associates
provides
for
an
annual
investment
management
fee,
which
is
computed
daily
and
paid
monthly. The
fee
consists
of
an
individual
fund
fee
and
a
group
fee.
The
individual
fund
fee
is
equal
to
0.65%
of
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets;
prior
to
May
1,
2022,
the
individual
fund
fee
had
been
0.75%.
The
group
fee
rate
is
calculated
based
on
the
combined
net
assets
of
certain
mutual
funds
sponsored
by
Price
Associates
(the
group)
applied
to
a
graduated
fee
schedule,
with
rates
ranging
from
0.48%
for
the
first
$1
billion
of
assets
to
0.260%
for
assets
in
excess
of
$845
billion.
The
fund’s
group
fee
is
determined
by
applying
the
group
fee
rate
to
the
fund’s
average
daily
net
assets. At
October
31,

the
effective
annual

was

Our

included
performing
procedures
to
assess
the
risks
of
material
misstatement
of
the
financial
statements,
whether
due
to
error
or

and
performing
procedures

Such
procedures
included
examining,
on
a

evidence
regarding
the

and
disclosures
in

Our
audits
also
included
evaluating

made
by
management,
as
well
as
evaluating
the
overall

LIQUIDITY
RISK
MANAGEMENT
PROGRAM
In
accordance
with
Rule
22e-4
(Liquidity
Rule)
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended,
the
fund
has
established
a
liquidity
risk
management
program
(Liquidity
Program)
reasonably
designed
to
assess
and
manage
the
fund’s
liquidity
risk,
which
generally
represents
the
risk
that
the
fund
would
not
be
able
to
meet
redemption
requests
without
significant
dilution
of
remaining
investors’
interests
in
the
fund.
The
fund’s
Board
of
Directors
(Board)
has
appointed
the
fund’s
investment
adviser,
T.
Rowe
Price
Associates,
Inc.
(Adviser),
as
the
administrator
of
the
Liquidity
Program.
As
administrator,
the
Adviser
is
responsible
for
overseeing
the
day-to-day
operations
of
the
Liquidity
Program
and,
among
other
things,
is
responsible
for
assessing,
managing,
and
reviewing
with
the
Board
at
least
annually
the
liquidity
risk
of
each
T.
Rowe
Price
fund.
The
Adviser
has
delegated
oversight
of
the
Liquidity
Program
to
a
Liquidity
Risk
Committee
(LRC),
which
is
a
cross-functional
committee
composed
of
personnel
from
multiple
departments
within
the
Adviser.
The
Liquidity
Program’s
principal
objectives
include
supporting
the
T.
Rowe
Price
funds’
compliance
with
limits
on
investments
in
illiquid
assets
and
mitigating
the
risk
that
the
fund
will
be
unable
to
timely
meet
its
redemption
obligations.
The
Liquidity
Program
also
includes
a
number
of
elements
that
support
the
management
and
assessment
of
liquidity
risk,
including
an
annual
assessment
of
factors
that
influence
the
fund’s
liquidity
and
the
periodic
classification
and
reclassification
of
a
fund’s
investments
into
categories
that
reflect
the
LRC’s
assessment
of
their
relative
liquidity
under
current
market
conditions.
Under
the
Liquidity
Program,
every
investment
held
by
the
fund
is
classified
at
least
monthly
into
one
of
four
liquidity
categories
based
on
estimations
of
the
investment’s
ability
to
be
sold
during
designated
time
frames
in
current
market
conditions
without
significantly
changing
the
investment’s
market
value.
As
required
by
the
Liquidity
Rule,
at
a
meeting
held
on
July
25,
2022,
the
Board
was
presented
with
an
annual
assessment
prepared
by
the
LRC,
on
behalf
of
the
Adviser,
that
addressed
the
operation
of
the
Liquidity
Program
and
assessed
its
adequacy
and
effectiveness
of
implementation,
including
any
material
changes
to
the
Liquidity
Program
and
the
determination
of
each
fund’s
Highly
Liquid
Investment
Minimum
(HLIM).
The
annual
assessment
included
consideration
of
the
following
factors,
as
applicable:
the
fund’s
investment
strategy
and
liquidity
of
portfolio
investments
during
normal
and
reasonably
foreseeable
stressed
conditions,
including
whether
the
investment
strategy
is
appropriate
for
an
open-end
fund,
the
extent
to
which
the
strategy
involves
a
relatively
concentrated
portfolio
or
large
positions
in
particular
issuers,
and
the
use
of
borrowings
for
investment
purposes
and
derivatives;
short-term
and
long-term
cash
flow
projections
covering
both
normal
and
reasonably
foreseeable
stressed
conditions;
and
holdings
of
cash
and
cash
equivalents,
as
well
as
available
borrowing
arrangements.

For
the
fund
and
other
T.
Rowe
Price
funds,
the
annual
assessment
incorporated
a
report
related
to
a
fund’s
holdings,
shareholder
and
portfolio
concentration,
any
borrowings
during
the
period,
cash
flow
projections,
and
other
relevant
data
for
the
period
of
April
1,
2021,
through
March
31,
2022.
The
report
described
the
methodology
for
classifying
a
fund’s
investments
(including
any
derivative
transactions)
into
one
of
four
liquidity
categories,
as
well
as
the
percentage
of
a
fund’s
investments
assigned
to
each
category.
It
also
explained
the
methodology
for
establishing
a
fund’s
HLIM
and
noted
that
the
LRC
reviews
the
HLIM
assigned
to
each
fund
no
less
frequently
than
annually.
During
the
period
covered
by
the
annual
assessment,
the
LRC
has
concluded,
and
reported
to
the
Board,
that
the
Liquidity
Program
continues
to
operate
adequately
and
effectively
and
is
reasonably
designed
to
assess
and
manage
the
fund’s
liquidity
risk.

Item 1. (b) Notice pursuant to Rule 30e-3.

Not applicable.

Item 2. Code of Ethics.

The registrant has adopted a code of ethics, as defined in Item 2 of Form N-CSR, applicable to its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of this code of ethics is filed as an exhibit to this Form N-CSR. No substantive amendments were approved or waivers were granted to this code of ethics during the period covered by this report.

Item 3. Audit Committee Financial Expert.

The registrant’s Board of Directors has determined that Ms. Teresa Bryce Bazemore qualifies as an audit committee financial expert, as defined in Item 3 of Form N-CSR. Ms. Bazemore is considered independent for purposes of Item 3 of Form N-CSR.

Item 4. Principal Accountant Fees and Services.

(a) – (d)    Aggregate fees billed for the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered to, or on behalf of, the registrant by the registrant’s principal accountant were as follows:

 

     2022      2021  

Audit Fees

   $ 24,349      $ 23,048  

Audit-Related Fees

     -        -  

Tax Fees

     -        2,840  

All Other Fees

     -        -  

Audit fees include amounts related to the audit of the registrant’s annual financial statements and services normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings. Audit-related fees include amounts reasonably related to the performance of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements and specifically include the issuance of a report on internal controls and, if applicable, agreed-upon procedures related to fund acquisitions. Tax fees include amounts related to services for tax compliance, tax planning, and tax advice. The nature of these services specifically includes the review of distribution calculations and the preparation of Federal, state, and excise tax returns. All other fees include the registrant’s pro-rata share of amounts for agreed-upon procedures in conjunction with service contract approvals by the registrant’s Board of Directors/Trustees.

(e)(1) The registrant’s audit committee has adopted a policy whereby audit and non-audit services performed by the registrant’s principal accountant for the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant require pre-approval in advance at regularly scheduled audit committee meetings. If such a service is required between regularly scheduled audit committee meetings, pre-approval may be authorized by one audit committee member with ratification at the next scheduled audit committee meeting. Waiver of pre-approval for audit or non-audit services requiring fees of a de minimis amount is not permitted.

(2) No services included in (b) – (d) above were approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X.

 

 


(f) Less than 50 percent of the hours expended on the principal accountant’s engagement to audit the registrant’s financial statements for the most recent fiscal year were attributed to work performed by persons other than the principal accountant’s full-time, permanent employees.

(g) The aggregate fees billed for the most recent fiscal year and the preceding fiscal year by the registrant’s principal accountant for non-audit services rendered to the registrant, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the registrant were $2,760,000 and $3,600,000, respectively.

(h) All non-audit services rendered in (g) above were pre-approved by the registrant’s audit committee. Accordingly, these services were considered by the registrant’s audit committee in maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

(b) The registrant’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are aware of no change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting.
