FMR may not terminate these arrangements before the expiration date without the approval of the Board of Trustees and may extend them in its discretion after that date.

This example helps compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other funds.

Let's say, hypothetically, that the annual return for shares of the fund is 5% and that your shareholder fees and the annual operating expenses for shares of the fund are exactly as described in the fee table. This example illustrates the effect of fees and expenses, but is not meant to suggest actual or expected fees and expenses or returns, all of which may vary. For every $10,000 you invested, here's how much you would pay in total expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated and if you hold your shares:

  Class A  Class M  Class C  Class I  Class Z 
  Sell All

3 years  $1123  $1123  $985  $985  $809  $809  $505  $505  $465  $465 

Portfolio Turnover

The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual operating expenses or in the example, affect the fund's performance.

Principal Investment Strategies

  • Normally investing at least 80% of assets in equity securities of companies that Fidelity Management & Research Company LLC (FMR) (the Adviser) believes have proven or improving sustainability practices based on an evaluation of such companies' individual environmental, social, and governance (ESG) profile.
  • Normally investing primarily in non-U.S. securities.
  • Using the Adviser's proprietary ESG ratings process to evaluate the current state of an issuer’s sustainability practices using a data-driven framework that includes both proprietary and third-party data, and also provide a qualitative forward looking assessment of an issuer’s sustainability outlook provided by the Adviser’s fundamental research analysts and ESG team.
  • The Adviser's ESG ratings of issuers are derived from multiple factors, including an issuer’s environmental profile, which may include, but is not limited to, carbon and toxic emissions, water management, waste management, vulnerability to the physical impacts of climate change, and research and investment into products, services, and energies that reduce emissions and/or provide opportunities to achieve a low carbon transition. An assessment of an issuer’s social profile includes, but is not limited to, its approach to diversity and inclusion, human capital management, data privacy, product safety and human rights. With respect to governance, the independence and diversity of an issuer’s board, its compensation practices and board oversight of critical ESG issues are considered as part of the assessment. These factors are weighted based on how material the Adviser believes each factor is to an issuer’s financial outlook, and not all factors may be applicable to all issuers.
  • Investing in issuers that the Adviser believes deliver tangible environmental or social impact through core business operations. An assessment of the impact characteristics of an issuer may involve corporate engagement and an analysis of issuer alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals using qualitative analysis as well as proprietary or third-party data. For example, issuers that provide access to clean water, education, or clean energy through their core business may be considered to deliver tangible impact.
  • Allocating investments across different countries and regions.
  • In addition to the ESG ratings process, using fundamental analysis of factors such as each issuer's financial condition and industry position, as well as market and economic conditions, to select investments.
  • Employing sustainable investing exclusion criteria to avoid investments in issuers that are directly engaged in, and/or derive significant revenue from, certain industries. Please see “Fund Basics – Investment Details – Sustainable Investing Exclusions” for additional information.

Principal Investment Risks

  • Stock Market Volatility.  Stock markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments. Different parts of the market, including different market sectors, and different types of securities can react differently to these developments.
  • Sustainability Risk.  Application of FMR’s ESG ratings process and/or its sustainable investing exclusion criteria may affect the fund’s exposure to certain issuers, sectors, regions, and countries and may affect the fund’s performance depending on whether certain investments are in or out of favor. The criteria related to the fund’s ESG ratings process and/or adherence to its sustainable investing exclusion criteria may result in the fund forgoing opportunities to buy certain securities when it might otherwise be advantageous to do so, or selling securities for ESG reasons when it might be otherwise disadvantageous for it to do so. As a result, the fund's performance may at times be better or worse than the performance of funds that do not use ESG or sustainability criteria. There are significant differences in interpretations of what it means for an issuer to have positive ESG factors. While the Adviser believes its definitions are reasonable, the portfolio decisions it makes may differ with other investors’ or advisers’ views.
  • Foreign Exposure.  Foreign markets, particularly emerging markets, can be more volatile than the U.S. market due to increased risks of adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market, or economic developments and can perform differently from the U.S. market. The extent of economic development; political stability; market depth, infrastructure, and capitalization; and regulatory oversight can be less than in more developed markets. Emerging markets typically have less established legal, accounting and financial reporting systems than those in more developed markets, which may reduce the scope or quality of financial information available to investors. Emerging markets can be subject to greater social, economic, regulatory, and political uncertainties and can be extremely volatile. Foreign exchange rates also can be extremely volatile.
  • Geographic Concentration in Japan.  Because the fund concentrates its investments in Japan, the fund's performance is expected to be closely tied to social, political, and economic conditions within Japan and to be more volatile than the performance of more geographically diversified funds.
  • Issuer-Specific Changes.  The value of an individual security or particular type of security can be more volatile than, and can perform differently from, the market as a whole.
  • Management Risk.  The Adviser’s application of the fund’s strategy criteria may not achieve its intended results. The fund could underperform in comparison to other funds with a similar benchmark or similar objectives and investment strategies.

An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. You could lose money by investing in the fund.
