This actively managed fund offers exposure to developed and emerging non-U.S. markets and will be diversified across a range of sectors. The fund’s advisors look to construct a portfolio that blends growth and value styles to serve as a core holding in a globally balanced portfolio. Because it invests in non-U.S stocks, the fund can be more volatile than a U.S. stock fund. Investors seeking a broad actively managed single-fund solution to non-U.S. developed and emerging markets may wish to consider investing in this fund.
