Please read the prospectus carefully before investing. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although a money market fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in a money market fund. The Russell Money Market Fund is participating in the U.S. Treasury's Temporary Guarantee Program for Money Market Funds which will guarantee to shareholders that they will receive $1.00 for each money market fund share held as of the close of business on September 19, 2008. Any increase in the number of shares held in an account after the close of business on September 19, 2008 will not be guaranteed. If a shareholder closes the account, any future investment in the fund will not be guaranteed. If the number of shares held in an account fluctuates, shareholders will be covered for either the number of shares held as of the close of business on September 19, 2008 or the amount held on the date the guarantee is triggered, whichever is less. Currently, the guarantee program extends through December 18, 2008. Please see the fund’s prospectus for additional information.
