Products and Services

• Equity Securities of Non-U.S. Companies

  This fundamental component of the investment strategy involves allocating at least 80% of the fund's assets towards stocks and similar securities of companies based outside the United States. This diverse exposure is designed to tap into international market growth and opportunities.

• Common Stocks and Depositary Receipts

  The fund invests in common stocks and depositary receipts that evidence ownership in these common stocks. This allows investors to gain equity interests in a broad range of non-U.S. companies, spreading risk while seeking growth.

• Preferred Stocks

  Investments also include preferred stocks, which offer potential for income generation through dividends. Preferred stocks sometimes come with added stability compared to common stocks, providing a balance in the investment strategy.

• Convertible Securities

  The fund’s portfolio may contain securities that are convertible into common stocks. These instruments provide the flexibility to convert into equity, potentially capitalizing on company growth while initially offering more stable income.

• Securities with Rights to Buy Common Stocks

  Finally, the investment strategy may involve securities that confer rights to purchase common stocks, such as warrants. This allows the fund to potentially increase its stake in growing companies at predetermined prices, aiming to enhance long-term investment returns.
