Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Mawer Emerging Markets Equity Fund is to achieve above-average long-term risk-adjusted returns by investing primarily in equity and equity related securities of companies located or active in emerging market countries. Treasury bills or short-term investments, not exceeding three years to maturity, may also be used from time to time.

Investment Strategy

We employ the following strategies to achieve the Fund’s objective: We seek to systematically create a broadly diversified portfolio of wealth-creating companies bought at discounts to their intrinsic values; We seek to employ a long-term holding period to allow for investor recognition or corporate growth. There are no specific limits on the portion of the Fund’s assets that may be directly invested in foreign securities or indirectly exposed to investments in foreign securities.
