Investment Strategy

The investment seeks long-term growth of capital. The fund primarily invests in a core group of 15-35 equity securities, including both common stocks and sponsored American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"). Its investments are expected to have a bias toward larger capitalization issuers (those with market capitalizations in excess of $10 billion), but the fund may also invest in small-capitalization (between $100 million and $4 billion) and medium-capitalization (between $4 billion and $10 billion) companies. It is non-diversified.
