Investment Objectives

The Fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies with a connection to emerging markets.

Investment Strategy

In pursuing the Fund’s investment objective, the sub-advisor: generally invests in equity securities of companies with a connection to countries other than those classified as “Developed” by MSCI; may invest in issuers of any size; may invest a relatively large percentage of the Fund’s assets in securities of issuers in a single country, a small number of countries, or a particular geographic region.
