Description

The fund's main objective is to generate sustained growth in capital over an extended period. Typically, it commits at least 65% of its total portfolio to equity investments in companies headquartered in a minimum of three distinct nations located beyond the United States, spanning both established and developing global markets. While its predominant strategy involves acquiring shares of "value" companies – specifically common stock, convertible instruments, depositary receipts, foreign stocks denominated in U.S. dollars traded on American exchanges, and preferred stock – the fund also maintains the option to invest in "growth" oriented businesses.
