The fund commits at least 80% of its assets, which includes both its net assets and any funds borrowed for investment purposes, towards the acquisition of equity securities. These securities are predominantly publicly traded common stocks. To fulfill its investment policy, the fund broadens its definition of equity securities to also encompass various forms of depositary receipts, such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), European Depositary Receipts (EDRs), and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs). It's important to note that this fund operates as a non-diversified fund, meaning it may concentrate its investments in fewer securities when compared to diversified funds.
