Investment Objectives

The fundamental investment objective of Lazard International Compounders Fund is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in the equity securities of non-U.S. issuers, including those from emerging markets.

Investment Strategy

The Fund seeks to generate strong relative returns over a full market cycle by investing solely in what Lazard calls “Compounders”. Lazard defines Compounders as the world’s leading companies that can generate, and sustain, the highest levels of financial productivity (i.e. return on equity, return on capital, and cash flow return on investment).
