Strategy. Under normal circumstances, the World Equity Ex-US Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of foreign companies of various capitalization ranges. These securities may include common stocks, preferred stocks, depositary receipts, warrants, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that track an international ex-US equity index and derivative instruments, principally futures and forward contracts, whose value is based on an international equity index or an underlying international equity security or basket of international equity securities.

These securities may include common stocks, preferred stocks, depositary receipts, warrants, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) that track an international ex-US equity index and derivative instruments, principally futures and forward contracts, whose value is based on an international equity index or an underlying international equity security or basket of international equity securities. The Fund will invest in securities of foreign issuers located in developed and emerging market countries. However, the Fund will not invest more than 35% of its assets in the common stocks or other equity securities of issuers located in emerging market countries. The Fund may also, to a lesser extent, invest in swaps on securities for risk management purposes or as part of its investment strategies. The Fund uses a multi-manager approach, relying upon a number of sub-advisers (each, a Sub-Adviser and collectively, the Sub-Advisers) Sub-Advisers with differing investment strategies to manage portions of the Fund's portfolio under the general supervision of SEI Investments Management Corporation (SIMC or the Adviser). The Fund's benchmark is the MSCI All Country World Ex-U.S. Net Index (net of dividends). The Fund is expected to have an absolute return and risk profile similar to the international equity ex-US market. The Fund is diversified as to issuers, market capitalization, industry and country. One or more Sub-Advisers may implement a long/short equity investment strategy by investing in securities believed to offer capital appreciation opportunities while also attempting to take advantage of an anticipated decline in the price of a company. A long/short equity investment strategy takes (i) long positions with respect to investments that the Sub-Adviser believes to be undervalued relative to their potential increase in price, and (ii) short positions (including through derivative instruments, such as swaps) with respect to investments that the Sub-Adviser believes to be overvalued and likely to decrease in price. A long/short equity investment strategy seeks returns from strong security selection on both the long and short sides. These long and short positions may be completely unrelated. The Sub-Advisers may seek to enhance the Fund's return by actively managing the Fund's foreign currency exposure. In managing the Fund's currency exposure, the Sub-Advisers may buy and sell currencies ( i.e., take long or short positions) using options, futures and foreign currency forward contracts. The Fund may take long and short positions in foreign currencies in excess of the value of the Fund's assets denominated in a particular currency or when the Fund does not own assets denominated in that currency. The Fund may also engage in currency transactions in an attempt to take advantage of certain inefficiencies in the currency exchange market, to increase their exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one currency to another. The Fund may also invest in futures contracts and forward contracts for hedging purposes, including to seek to manage the Fund's currency exposure to foreign securities and mitigate the Fund's overall risk.
