The Fund’s investment objective is to provide maximum total return, primarily through capital appreciation, by assuming a higher level of volatility than is ordinarily expected from developed markets outside North America by investing primarily in equity securities of emerging market countries. The investment objective cannot be changed unless unitholders of the Fund approve the change at a meeting.
This Fund invests primarily in shares of companies located in emerging market countries, which includes frontier markets. An emerging market country is a country with an economy that the World Bank or the United Nations considers to be emerging or developing. These countries generally include every country in the world except the United States, Canada, Japan, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand and most countries in Western Europe.
