EXPENSE EXAMPLE    

This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in Class A, Class C, Institutional and/or Class IR Shares of the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your Class A, Class C, Institutional and/or Class IR Shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same (except that the Example incorporates the expense limitation arrangement for only the first year). Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

 

                                       
      1 Year     3 Years     5 Years     10 Years  

Class A Shares

  $ 689      $ 1,035      $ 1,404      $ 2,438   

Class C Shares

       

– Assuming complete redemption at end of period

  $ 323      $ 742      $ 1,287      $ 2,777   

– Assuming no redemption

  $ 223      $ 742      $ 1,287      $ 2,777   

Institutional Shares

  $ 107      $ 390      $ 693      $ 1,556   

Class IR Shares

  $ 122      $ 436      $ 773      $ 1,724   

 

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER    

The Fund pays transactions costs when it buys and sells securities or instruments (i. e., “turns over” its portfolio). A high rate of port- folio turnover may result in increased transaction costs, including brokerage commissions, which must be borne by the Fund and its shareholders, and is also likely to result in higher short-term capital gains for taxable shareholders. These costs are not rejected in annual fund operating expenses or in the expense example above, but are reflected in the Fund’s performance. The Fund’s portfolio

turnover rate for the fiscal year ended October 31, 2011 was 200% of the average value of its portfolio.

 

PRINCIPAL STRATEGY    

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at the time of purchase) (“Net Assets”) in a diversified portfolio of equity investments in emerging country issuers. Currently, emerging countries include, among others, Central and South American, African, Asian and Eastern European countries. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will not invest more than 35% of its Net Assets in securities of issuers in any one emerging country.

The portfolio management team uses two distinct strategies—a bottom-up stock selection strategy and a top-down country/ currency selection strategy—to manage the Fund.

The Fund uses a “structured” quantitative style of management that emphasizes fundamentally-based stock and country/ currency selection, careful portfolio construction and efficient implementation. The Fund’s investments are selected using both a variety of quantitative techniques and fundamental research, including, but not limited to, such investment themes as: Valuation, Profitability, Quality, Management, Momentum and Sentiment. The Valuation theme attempts to capture potential mispricings of securities, typically by comparing a measure of the company’s intrinsic value to its market value. Profitability assesses whether the company is earning more than its cost of capital. Quality evaluates whether the company’s earnings are coming from more persistent, cash based sources, as opposed to accruals. Management assesses the characteristics, policies and strategic decisions of company management. Momentum seeks to predict drifts in stock prices caused by delayed investor reaction to company-specific information and information about related companies. Finally, the Sentiment theme reflects selected investment views and decisions of individuals and financial intermediaries.

The Fund seeks to maximize its expected return, while maintaining risk, style, capitalization and industry characteristics similar to the MSCI ® Emerging Markets Standard Index (unhedged, with dividends reinvested, net of dividend withholding taxes) (“MSCI ® Emerging Markets (net) Index”), adjusted for the Investment Adviser’s country views. Additionally, the portfolio management team’s views of the relative attractiveness of emerging countries and currencies are considered in allocating the Fund’s assets among emerging countries. MSCI ® Emerging Markets (net) Index is designed to measure equity market performance of the large and mid market capitalization segments of emerging markets.

The Fund may also invest in fixed income securities that are considered to be cash equivalents.

 

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF THE FUND    

Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any government agency. The Fund should not be relied upon as a complete investment program. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

Emerging Countries Risk. The securities markets of most emerging countries are less liquid, are especially subject to greater price volatility, have smaller market capitalizations, have less government regulation and are not subject to as extensive and frequent accounting, financial and other reporting requirements as the securities markets of more developed countries.

 


 

3        SUMMARY PROSPECTUS — GOLDMAN SACHS STRUCTURED EMERGING MARKETS EQUITY FUND

 

Foreign Risk. Foreign securities may be subject to risk of loss because of less foreign government regulation, less public information and less economic, political and social stability in these countries. Loss may also result from the imposition of exchange controls, confiscations and other government restrictions, or from problems in registration, settlement or custody. Foreign risk also involves the risk of negative foreign currency rate fluctuations, which may cause the value of securities denominated in such foreign currency (or other instruments through which the Fund has exposure to foreign currencies) to decline in value. Currency exchange rates may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time.

Investment Style Risk. Different investment styles ( e.g., “growth,” “value” or “quantitative”) tend to shift in and out of favor depending upon market and economic conditions and investor sentiment. The Fund may outperform or underperform other funds that invest in similar asset classes but employ different investment styles.

Liquidity Risk. The risk that the Fund may make investments that may be illiquid or that may become less liquid in response to market developments or adverse investor perceptions. Illiquid investments may be more difficult to value. Liquidity risk may also refer to the risk that the Fund will not be able to pay redemption proceeds within the allowable time period because of unusual market conditions, an unusually high volume of redemption requests, or other reasons. To meet redemption requests, the Fund may be forced to sell securities at an unfavorable time and/or under unfavorable conditions.

Management Risk. The risk that a strategy used by the Investment Adviser may fail to produce the intended results. The Investment Adviser attempts to execute a complex strategy for the Fund using proprietary quantitative models. Investments selected using these models may perform differently than expected as a result of the factors used in the models, the weight placed on each factor, changes from the factors’ historical trends, and technical issues in the construction and implementation of the models (including, for example, data problems and/or software issues). There is no guarantee that the Investment Adviser’s use of these quantitative models will result in effective investment decisions for the Fund. Additionally, commonality of holdings across quantitative money managers may amplify losses.

Market Risk. The value of the instruments in which the Fund invests may go up or down in response to the prospects of individual companies, particular industry sectors or governments and/or general economic conditions.

Portfolio Turnover Rate Risk. A high rate of portfolio turnover (100% or more) involves correspondingly greater expenses which must be borne by the Fund and its shareholders, and is also likely to result in short-term capital gains taxable to shareholders.

Stock Risk. Stock prices have historically risen and fallen in periodic cycles. U.S. and foreign stock markets have experienced periods of substantial price volatility in the past and may do so again in the future.

 

PERFORMANCE
