High-yielding, non-investment grade bonds involve higher risk than investment grade bonds. Adverse conditions may affect the issuer's ability to pay interest and principal on these securities.
Inflation-protected debt securities tend to react to changes in interest rates, that is, the expected impact of inflation on interest rates. In general, the price of an inflation-protected debt security can fall when interest rates rise, and can rise when interest rates fall. Interest payments on inflation-protected debt securities will vary as the principal and/or interest is adjusted for inflation.
Effective at the close of business on May 31, 2007, no new or subsequent investments will be allowed in Class B shares of the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds except through a reinvestment of dividends or capital gains or permitted exchanges. http://www.delawareinvestments.com/Corporate/shareholder/supp_bclass.pdf
