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 the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that each year your investment has a 5% return and Fund expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs and returns may be different, your approximate costs of investing $10,000 in the Fund would be:

	1 Year			3 Year			5 Year			10 Year
A Shares	$462			$761			$1,082			$1,989
Investor Shares	$91			$433			$799			$1,830
Institutional Shares	$65			$355			$667			$1,552

Portfolio Turnover

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 34% of the average value of its portfolio.

 

Principal Investment Strategy

To pursue its objective, the Fund invests, under normal market conditions, primarily in debt obligations such as bonds, notes and debentures, and bills issued by U.S. corporations or the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities, municipal securities, mortgage-related securities, asset-backed securities and collateralized mortgage obligations that are rated within the three highest ratings categories assigned by a nationally recognized statistical ratings organization, or of comparable quality, at the time of purchase. The Fund also invests in money market instruments.

 

Total return is defined as a percentage change, over a specified time period, in a mutual funds net asset value, with the ending net asset value adjusted to account for the reinvestment of all distributions of dividends and capital gains.

 

If the rating of a security is downgraded after purchase, the portfolio management team will determine whether it is in the best interest of the Fund’s shareholders to continue to hold the security.

 

The Fund will seek to increase the value of your investment through a combination of income and capital gains.

 

In managing the portfolio, the portfolio management team searches for inefficiencies not only at the macro, or top down level, but also at the individual security level.

 

In addition to the securities described above, the Fund may invest in other debt securities.

 

Under normal circumstances the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in bonds and maintains the dollar-weighted average maturity of its portfolio between three and ten years. These policies will not be changed without at least 60 days prior notice to shareholders.

 

Principal Investment Risks

Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, the principal risks of investing in the Fund, which could adversely affect the Fund’s net asset value, yield or total return are (in alphabetical order):

●	Credit Risk — Credit risk is the possibility that the issuer of a debt instrument will fail to repay interest and principal in a timely manner or a counterparty may be unable to fulfill an obligation to repurchase securities from the Fund, reducing the Fund’s return.
●	Derivative Risk — The risk of investing in derivative instruments, including liquidity, interest rate, market, credit and management risks, mispricing or improper valuation.  Changes in the value of derivative may not correlate perfectly with the underlying asset, rate or index, and the Fund could lose more than the principal amount invested.
●	Interest Rate Risk — The value of the Fund’s investments may decline due to an increase in interest rates. In general, the longer a security’s maturity, the greater the interest rate risk. The Fund’s yield may decrease due to a decline in interest rates.
●	Liquidity Risk — Certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price that would normally prevail in the market.
●	Management Risk — There is no guarantee that the investment techniques and risk analyses used by the Fund’s portfolio managers will produce the desired results.
●	Market Risk — The market value of a security may move up and down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably.
●	Mortgage Market Risk — The mortgage market in the United States has experienced difficulties that may adversely affect the performance and market value of certain of the Fund’s mortgage-related investments.
●	Prepayment/Call Risk — There is a chance that the repayment of an asset backed or mortgage backed obligation will occur sooner than expected. Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of falling interest rates, a bond issuer will “call”— or repay — its bond before the bond’s maturity date.
●	Valuation Risk — The risk associated with the assessment of appropriate pricing in a changing market where trading information may not be readily available.

 

To the extent that the Fund makes investments with additional risks, those risks could increase volatility or reduce performance. The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thus lowering performance) and may increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

 

For more information about these risks, please refer to the section titled “Investment Practices and Risks” in the Fund’s prospectus. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of BOKF, NA, or any other bank, and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Performance Information

 

The bar chart and the performance table below illustrate some of the risks and return volatility of an investment in the Fund by showing changes in the Fund’s performance from year to year and by showing how the Fund’s average annual returns for 1, 5 and 10 years compare with those of a broad measure of market performance. The Fund’s past performance (before or after taxes) does not necessarily indicate how the Fund will perform in the future. Updated performance information may be obtained on the Fund’s website www.cavanalhillfunds.com or by calling 1-800-762-7085.

 

This bar chart shows changes in the Fund’s performance from year to year 1 . The returns for A Shares and Institutional Shares will differ from the returns for Investor Shares (which are shown in the bar chart) because of differences in the expenses of each class.

Annual Total Returns for Investor Shares (Periods Ended 12/31)
		Best quarter:	Worst quarter:
		3Q 2009	4Q 2008
		6.12%	-10.13%

1 The performance information shown above is based on a calendar year. The Fund’s total return from 1/1/12 to 9/30/12 was 7.09%.

 

This table compares the Fund’s average annual total returns for periods ended December 31, 2011 to those of the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index. Prior to January 1, 2006, a maximum sales charge of 2.50% was imposed. Sales charges are not reflected in the total return figures. The A Shares, which impose a maximum sales charge of 3.75%, were not in existence before May 1, 2011. Institutional Shares were not in existence before December 30, 2005. Performance information reflects the Fund’s Investor Shares for periods prior to December 29, 2005 and May 2, 2011 for the Institutional and A Shares, respectively. The A Shares began presenting performance linked to the Investor Shares in September of 2011. Unlike Institutional Shares, Investor and A Shares bear a 12b-1 fee of 0.25%. Investor and Institutional Shares are subject to a Shareholder Servicing Fee of 0.25%, whereas the Shareholder Servicing Fee for A Shares is 0.10%. As indicated in the table, A Shares are also subject to a sales charge (Load). Each of these differences is reflected in the performance information. Accordingly, had the Institutional and A Shares of the Fund been offered for periods before December 30, 2005 and May 2, 2011, respectively, the performance information would have been different as a result of lower annual operating expenses. After-tax returns are calculated using a standard set of assumptions. The stated returns assume the highest historical federal marginal income and capital gains tax rates. Returns after taxes on distributions assume a continued investment in the Fund and show the effect of taxes on Fund distributions. Returns after taxes on distributions and sales of Fund shares assume all shares were redeemed at the end of each measurement period and show the effect of any taxable gain (or offsetting loss) on redemption, as well as the effects of taxes on Fund distributions. These after-tax returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable state and local taxes. Actual after tax returns depend on an investor’s tax situation and may differ from those shown. After-tax returns are not relevant to investors holding shares through tax-deferred programs, such as IRA or 401(k) plans.

Average Annual Total Returns (Periods Ended 12/31/11)		1 Year			5 Years			10 Years
Investor Shares
Return Before Taxes		5.95%			3.82%			4.00%
Return After Taxes on Distributions		4.64%			2.04%			2.26%
Return After Taxes on Distributions and Sale of Fund Shares		3.86%			2.20%			2.38%
Institutional Shares
Return Before Taxes		6.22%			4.09%			4.17%
A Shares
Return Before Taxes		2.02%			3.02%			3.60%
Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index (reflects no deduction for expenses, fees or taxes)		5.97%			6.09%			5.39%
