Important Objectives, Strategy and Risk Information

The European Equity Fund, Inc. (formerly The Germany Fund, Inc.), seeks long-term capital appreciation through investment primarily in equity or equity-linked securities of issuers domiciled in Europe. Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets (plus any assets funded with leverage) will be invested in equity or equity-linked securities of issuers domiciled in Europe. Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously offered. There is a one time public offering and once issued, shares of closed-end funds are sold in the open market through a stock exchange. Shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount to net asset value. The price of the fund’s shares is determined by a number of factors, several of which are beyond the control of the fund. Therefore, the fund cannot predict whether its shares will trade at, below or above net asset value. Investing in foreign securities, particularly of emerging markets, presents certain risks, such as currency fluctuations, political and economic changes, and market risks. Any fund that concentrates in a particular segment of the market or a particular geographical region will generally be more volatile than a fund that invests more broadly. War, terrorism, economic uncertainty, trade disputes, public health crises (including the recent pandemic spread of the novel coronavirus) and related geopolitical events could lead to increased market volatility, disruption to U.S. and world economies and markets and may have significant adverse effects on the fund and its investments.

Performance assumes reinvestment of all distributions. Returns during part or all of the periods shown do not reflect a fee and/or expense waiver. Returns would have been lower if they had. Fund specific data and performance are provided for informational purposes only and are not intended for trading purposes.

For more information regarding The Central and Eastern Europe Fund, Inc., The European Equity Fund, Inc., and The New Germany Fund, Inc., please call 1-800-GERMANY. To communicate with the Board of Directors or an individual Director of the Fund, a stockholder must send a written communication to the Fund’s principal office at 875 3rd Avenue, New York, New York 10022-6225 (c/o The Fund), addressed to (i) the Board of Directors of the Fund or an individual Director, and (ii) the Secretary of the Fund. The Secretary of the Fund will direct the correspondence to the appropriate parties.
