Investment objective

Seeks long-term growth of capital.

Principal investment strategy

The portfolios sub-adviser, Jennison Associates LLC (the sub-adviser), invests, under normal circumstances, at least 65% of the portfolios total assets in equity and equity-related securities, principally common stocks, preferred stocks, warrants, rights and depositary receipts of U.S. companies with market capitalizations of at least $1 billion that the sub-adviser considers to have above average prospects for growth. These companies are generally medium- to large-capitalization companies. The sub-adviser uses a bottom-up approach, researching and evaluating individual company fundamentals rather than macro-economic factors, in seeking to identify individual companies with earnings growth potential that may not be recognized by the market at large. A bottom-up approach is looking at individual companies against the context of broader market factors.

The portfolio may invest up to 20% of its assets in the securities of foreign issuers, of which 10% may be invested in emerging markets issuers.
