Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital growth by investing primarily in a portfolio of equity securities of large-capitalization securities companies in emerging markets. Emerging markets include any country that is generally considered to be an emerging or developing country by MSCI. The Fund will focus its investments in those emerging market countries that the portfolio manager believes have strongly developing economies and in which the markets are becoming more sophisticated.

Investment Strategy

To achieve the Fund’s investment strategies, the Fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in securities of Underlying Funds, including ETFs, with such Underlying Funds expected to be primarily Underlying Funds that are managed by us or one of our affiliates. For more information, refer to “Fund of Funds” under “Fees and Expenses” in Part A. The investment approach follows a core investment style, looking for companies that are undervalued, of high quality and have good growth prospects.
