Investment Objectives

Long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of issuers in emerging markets while following a sustainable investment approach.

Investment Strategy

Generally, the Fund will invest at least 90% of its assets in equity securities of emerging markets issuers that meet the sub-advisor’s ESG criteria. The sub-advisor generally considers an issuer to be an emerging markets issuer if it is located in, has its securities primarily traded in, or derives a majority of its sales or income from, an emerging market country. The sub-advisor may, from time to time, concentrate the Fund’s investments in a particular emerging market.
