Description

The Steward Global Equity Income Fund aims to generate income by investing in common stocks from both U.S. and international markets. It targets companies that not only offer a superior dividend yield (above the median) but also demonstrate a track record of consistently increasing their payouts, supported by favorable earnings growth. The portfolio seeks broad diversification across the global economy, spanning a wide array of industries and market capitalizations, including large, mid, and small-sized enterprises. Crucially, the fund maintains a significant international allocation, typically deploying between 30% and 50% of its net assets in non-U.S. issuers, and ensuring this figure remains no less than 30% under normal market circumstances.
