Fund Description
The Adviser seeks to achieve the Fund’s investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, primarily in equity securities of non‑U.S. companies, and in companies in at least three countries other than the United States.
In pursuing the Fund’s investment objective, the Adviser employs a bottom‑up research-driven approach to construct a portfolio of highly profitable companies with strong management teams and durable competitive strengths. The Adviser focuses on companies that it believes exhibit compelling structural growth and quality characteristics and aims to hold them for the long-term to harness the compounding effect of consistent high cash flows and earnings. Valuation is also emphasized to ensure sustained potential for growth over an extended period.
The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any market capitalization or industry. The Adviser’s research focuses on analyzing companies based on three primary characteristics: structural growth, quality and valuation. In evaluating companies’ structural growth prospects, the Adviser considers strength of business model, innovation potential, and exposure to secular market growth drivers. In assessing quality, the Adviser analyzes balance sheet strength, long-term competitive position and the presence of barriers to entry to defend pricing power over the long term. The Adviser applies its valuation criteria by evaluating each security’s estimated long-term potential value in comparison to its current market value. The Fund may invest in emerging markets companies, and at times emerging market companies may make up a significant portion of the Fund. Emerging markets are countries considered to be developing countries by the international financial community and include, but are not limited to, those countries included in an emerging or frontier markets index by a recognized index provider, such as the MSCI Emerging Markets Index.
Currency fluctuations can have a dramatic impact on equity returns, significantly adding to returns in some years and greatly diminishing them in others. While the Adviser may hedge the foreign currency exposure resulting from the Fund’s security positions through the use of currency-related derivatives, it is not required to do so.
