Investment Objectives

The Fund will seek to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in global equity securities. The portfolio may consist of all types of equity and debt obligations of issuers that may or may not be listed for trading upon the facilities of stock exchanges or other organized and regulated trading facilities. Assets of the Fund may also be invested in debt obligations or held in cash to the extent that economic, market, or other conditions make it appropriate.

Investment Strategy

The Fund uses a Growth At a Reasonable Price approach to investments as a primary method to securities selection. This involves searching for companies exhibiting superior long-term earnings and cash flow per share growth and holding a strong position in the market in which they operate, quality management, and balance sheet strength. This analysis is supplemented by quantitative techniques that examine movements in general market trends as well as trends in earnings and the price of securities.
