Investment Objectives
The Fund’s investment objective is to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of smaller companies around the world.
Investment Strategy
Generally, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of small-cap issuers. A small-cap issuer is an issuer whose market capitalization does not exceed the largest market capitalization among the issuers that comprise the MSCI All Country World Small Cap Index. The Fund may also invest in issuers with larger market capitalizations. The Fund may, from time to time and depending on market conditions, invest in debt instruments.
