Products and Services

• Affiliated Equity Funds

  These are investments in equity funds managed by affiliates or entities that share a management relationship with the overseeing investment fund. Participation in these funds is strategically designed to leverage internal expertise and insights within the affiliated network, offering investors exposure to a range of sectors and investment opportunities.

• Non-affiliated Equity Funds through Fidelity's FundsNetwork®

  These funds extend the investment landscape to include a broader array of equity funds managed outside the affiliated circle but accessible through Fidelity's FundsNetwork®. This inclusion ensures a diverse portfolio that benefits from a wide spectrum of investment strategies, philosophies, and market perspectives.

• Non-affiliated ETFs

  Investments in Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) not affiliated with the fund offer a flexible and liquid option for gaining exposure to indices, sectors, commodities, or other assets. These ETFs are selected based on their potential to contribute positively to the overall portfolio performance, providing a layer of diversification outside the traditional mutual fund investments.

• Sub-advisers

  The fund carefully selects independent sub-advisers to manage portions of the portfolio. This process is guided by proprietary research evaluating numerous factors such as market performance, management experience, and investment style. This approach aims to harness expertise from specialized managers, further enhancing the fund's diversification and potential to generate returns.
