Investment Objectives

The primary investment objective of the Emerging Markets Equity Corporate Class is to obtain maximum long-term capital growth through direct and indirect investments in equity and equity-related securities of companies that the portfolio adviser believes have the potential for positive total return. These companies will include those that are located in, or with significant economic exposure to, emerging market countries. This fund also may invest in other mutual funds.

Investment Strategy

The portfolio adviser utilizes a bottom-up investment approach focusing on quality, financially productive companies that are undervalued relative to their global industry peers. Techniques such as fundamental analysis may be used to assess the value and growth potential of a company. This means evaluating the financial condition and management of a company, its industry and the overall economy.
