Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks current income and capital appreciation, consistent with the preservation of capital. Investment in mutual funds involves risk, including the possible loss of principal invested. The Fund is subject to asset allocation risk, which is the chance that selection of, and allocation of assets to, the underlying funds will cause the Fund to underperform. The Fund shares the principal risks of each underlying fund in which it invests and pays a proportionate share of the operating expenses of those funds as well as the direct expenses of investing in the Fund. Asset allocation does not ensure a profit or protect against a loss.

Investment Strategy

The Fund is a "fund of funds." The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a portfolio of underlying Calvert fixed-income, equity and money market funds ("Calvert Funds") that meets the Fund's investment and social criteria. The Fund invests in underlying Calvert Funds in accordance with a stable target asset allocation determined by the investment advisor. The Fund typically invests 60% to 80% of its net assets in CSIF Bond Portfolio (which invests primarily in fixed-income securities); 20% to 40% of its net assets in underlying Calvert Funds that invest primarily in equity securities; and 0% to 10% of its net assets in CSIF Money Market Portfolio.
