INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve capital appreciation over each full market cycle. To achieve this objective, the Fund will invest in an unleveraged portfolio of equity and equity-convertible securities and cash or cash equivalents. The Fund invests primarily in equity securities of both US and non-US companies exhibiting strong growth characteristics. Under normal market conditions, the Fund primarily invests in common stocks and other equity securities, including preferred stocks, both within and outside the US, whose market capitalisation is greater than USD 1.0 billion at the time of investment, although the Fund may invest in companies with lower market capitalization if market conditions suggest doing so will help the Fund achieve its objective.
