Investment Objectives

The Fund aims to achieve capital growth by investing mainly in equities of companies that benefit from global long-term market themes. These themes are resulting from secular changes in economic and social factors such as demographics, lifestyle, regulations or the environment. The investment universe is not limited to a specific geographical area.

Investment Strategy

The Fund invests substantially all of its assets in securities of Manulife Global Thematic Opportunities Fund. However, if the portfolio sub-advisor determines that it may be more beneficial for securityholders, the Fund may invest primarily in a diversified portfolio of global equity securities, either directly or indirectly. The Fund aims to achieve capital growth by investing mainly in equities and equity related securities (such as ADRs, GDRs & EDRs) issued by companies throughout the world.
