Overview

Overview

Why Invest in This Fund?

  • Focused, diversified international core equity portfolio that includes promising companies from both developed markets and emerging markets outside the U.S.
  • Rigorous, fundamental research process focused on buying sustainable businesses with sound business fundamentals trading at a discount to intrinsic value and with a defined path to success.
  • Three-basket portfolio construction process that seeks to provide style diversification, reduce volatility and deliver superior risk-adjusted performance over time.

Investment Objective

The fund’s goal is to provide investors with long-term capital appreciation by investing in equity and debt securities of all types.

Investment Approach

The fund uses a fundamental, bottom-up investment approach to uncover promising businesses with sound fundamentals in primarily the developed international markets of Europe and the Asia Pacific region.   The resulting portfolio is diversified by sector, country and market capitalization.  The portfolio is constructed with three types of stocks (basic value, consistent earners and emerging franchises) which provides the opportunity for our portfolio to produce attractive risk-adjusted returns across market cycles with less volatility over time.
