Products and Services

• Equity Securities of Non-U.S. Domiciled Companies

  The fund allocates at least 75% of its net assets into equity securities, such as common stock and depositary receipts, of companies not based in the U.S. This strategic focus is on identifying and investing in those entities that are believed to be undervalued, offering potential for significant returns. The companies chosen for investment may be located in any part of the world, including developed, emerging, or frontier markets, reflecting the fund’s global investment perspective.

• Depository Receipts

  As part of its investment strategy, the fund also invests in depositary receipts. These financial instruments represent a company's foreign shares and are traded on a local stock exchange, offering a convenient way to invest in non-U.S. companies. The integration of depositary receipts into the fund’s portfolio allows investors to benefit from the performance of international companies, while mitigating some of the risks associated with direct investments in foreign equity markets.
