This portfolio primarily invests in the stock of small companies based in developed countries outside the United States. Its investment approach assigns weightings to holdings based on their market capitalization. Furthermore, the fund may strategically concentrate on specific types of securities within this market segment, such as those with particularly modest market values, those trading at relatively attractive prices, or businesses demonstrating superior profitability, compared to their general presence in the broader non-U.S. developed small-cap universe.
