Description

The Portfolio primarily invests in equity instruments, notably common stocks, issued by companies based in the United States and abroad, including those within emerging market economies. It strategically targets businesses that the Investment Manager determines possess a powerful "economic franchise," characterized by a demonstrated history of achieving unleveraged returns at or above their cost of capital for extended periods. These investments typically involve securities listed on a national or other officially recognized exchange. The Portfolio is permitted to invest in companies of any market capitalization and is classified as non-diversified.
