Investment Strategy
The investment seeks the balanced accomplishment of three objectives: long-term growth of capital, conservation of principal and current income. As a balanced fund with global scope, the fund seeks to invest in equity and debt securities around the world that offer the opportunity for growth and/or provide dividend income, while also constructing the portfolio to protect principal and limit volatility. The adviser will allocate its assets among various countries. The fund will invest at least 40% of its net assets in issuers outside the United States. Normally it will invest at least 25% of the value of its assets in bonds and other debt securities.
