Emerging and frontier countries or markets are those countries or markets with low- to middle-income economies as classified by the World Bank or included in any of the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) emerging markets or frontier markets indices. The Funds advisor considers a company to be located in a country if the company has been organized under the laws of, has its principal offices in, or has its securities principally traded in, the country, or if the company derives at least 50% of its revenues or net profits from, or has at least 50% of its assets or production capacities in, the country. The Funds advisor expects the Fund to primarily invest in equity securities under normal circumstances. The Funds equity investments include common stock, which may include common stock that is offered in initial public offerings (IPOs), and depositary receipts. The Funds investments in depositary receipts may include American, European, Canadian and Global Depositary Receipts (ADRs, EDRs, CDRs and GDRs, respectively). The Fund will be managed pursuant to a focused strategy whereby the Funds investment advisor will typically invest the Funds assets in the equity securities of a small number of issuers. The Fund may purchase exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to manage the Funds cash holdings and gain exposure to the types of securities in which the Fund primarily invests. ETFs 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 a securities exchange. The Fund will count its ETF positions for purposes of determining whether it holds at least 80% of the value of its net assets (including investment-related borrowings) in equity securities of companies in emerging or frontier countries or markets, excluding companies in China. The Funds advisor uses a bottom-up approach that seeks to identify companies with attractive fundamentals, such as long-term historical growth in revenue and earnings, and/or a strong probability for superior future growth. The advisors investment process seeks companies that are industry leaders with strengthening competitive advantages; corporate cultures emphasizing strong, quality and experienced management; low or no debt; and attractive relative valuations. The Funds advisor also considers other factors including political risk, monetary policy risk, and regulatory risk in selecting securities. The Fund may invest in securities of any size companies. The Fund generally invests in the securities of companies domiciled in at least three different countries. However, from time to time, the Fund may have a significant portion of its assets invested in the securities of companies domiciled in one or a few countries or regions. The Fund may make significant investments in certain sectors or group of sectors within a particular industry or industries from time to time. Show less
