Withdrawals will reduce a policy's cash value and death benefit. Depending on the performance of the underlying investment options, the cash value available for withdrawals may be worth more or less than the original amount invested. The products of technology companies may be subject to severe competition and rapid obsolescence, and technology stocks may be subject to greater price fluctuations, government regulation, and limited liquidity as compared to other investments. A portfolio that concentrates its investments in one sector of the economy, such as technology, may be subject to greater share price fluctuations than a more diversified portfolio. The stocks of smaller companies may be subject to above-average market price fluctuations. There are specific risks associated with global investing, such as currency fluctuations, foreign taxation, differences in financial reporting practices, and rapid changes in political conditions. A portfolio with fewer holdings, such as Seligman Large-Cap Value Portfolio and Seligman Small-Cap Value Portfolio, may be subject to greater volatility than a portfolio with a greater number of holdings. High-yield bonds are subject to a greater risk of loss of principal and interest than higher-rated investment-grade bonds. Purchasers should carefully assess the risks associated with an investment in Seligman High-Yield Bond Portfolio associated with an investment in Seligman High-Yield Bond Portfolio.
