The investment seeks to achieve long-term growth of capital with lower volatility than broader equity markets. The fund invests at least 80%, under normal circumstances, of the value of its net assets in equity securities. It will invest in publicly-traded equity securities, including common stock, preferred stock and depositary receipts, of companies of all market capitalizations. The fund may invest up to 70% of its assets in the equity securities of non-U.S. issuers, including companies that conduct their principal business activities in emerging markets or whose securities are traded principally on exchanges in emerging markets.
