Strategy. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities.

The Fund may also invest in exchange-traded funds (ETFs).

The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to generate additional income. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests in at least three different countries, including emerging market countries, with at least 40% … Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities.

ETFs in which the Fund invests are investment companies that invest in portfolios of securities designed to track particular market segments or indices, the shares of which are bought and sold on securities exchanges. The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to generate additional income. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests in at least three different countries, including emerging market countries, with at least 40% of its net assets invested in securities of issuers located outside the United States. The Funds investments in foreign securities may include investments through American, European and Global Depositary Receipts (ADRs, EDRs, and GDRs, respectively). Depositary receipts represent interests in foreign securities held on deposit by banks. The strategy seeks to maximize total return. In selecting investments for the Fund, the Funds sub-adviser employs a fundamental, bottom-up approach. The sub-adviser focuses first on the quality of a companys business and then considers whether the companys securities are available at an attractive price relative to what the sub-adviser believes to be their fair value. The sub-adviser seeks to identify high-quality businesses by focusing on companies with all or most of the following attributes: attractive business fundamentals; experienced, motivated company management; pricing power; sustainable business model; financial strength; productive use of strong free cash flow; and/or high or consistently improving profitability metrics, return on invested capital and operating margins. The Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalizations, but typically invests in companies with a market capitalization above $2 billion at initial investment. The Fund is benchmarked to the MSCI All Country World (ACWI) Index (net) and the MSCI World Index (net) for the purpose of performance measurement. However, the sub-adviser is not constrained by the composition of either index in selecting investments for the Fund.
