Investment Objectives

The Fund’s objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in U.S. equity securities using a responsible investing approach. Any proposed change to the fundamental investment objectives of the Fund must be approved by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of the Fund’s investors called for that purpose.

Investment Strategy

In seeking to achieve the Fund’s investment objectives, the subadvisor seeks excess returns by taking active positions in equities that a team of research analysts finds attractive, while maintaining similar sector and style weights to the S&P 500 Index. While security holdings will predominantly be of U.S. corporations, the Fund may generally invest up to 10% of its assets in non-U.S. equity securities.
