American Beacon International Equity Fund Investor Class (AAIPX)

Overview

The described company is an international investment fund that focuses on diversifying its portfolio by investing in stocks situated outside the United States. It stipulates a primary investment strategy where at least 80% of its net assets, inclusive of borrowed funds for investment purposes, are allocated to common stocks and securities that can be converted into common stocks. These targeted stocks pertain to issuers that operate in a minimum of three different countries, thereby ensuring a broad geographic diversification. The fund prudently selects markets for its investments by majorly aligning with the countries listed within the MSCI EAFE Index. This index captures the investable market performance of large- and mid-capitalization companies in 21 developed markets across Europe, Australasia, and the Far East, consciously excluding the US and Canada to maintain its international focus.
