Principal investment strategy
Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited (?Aberdeen? or ?Subadviser?), subadviser to the Portfolio, invests the Portfolio?s assets primarily in common stocks, but may also invest the Portfolio?s assets in other types of equity securities, including, but not limited to, preferred stock and depositary receipts. Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests at least 80% of the value of its net assets in equity securities of emerging market companies. An emerging market country is any country determined by Aberdeen to have an emerging market economy, considering factors such as the country?s credit rating, its political and economic stability and the development of its financial and capital markets. Emerging market countries can include every nation in the world except the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand and most countries located in Western Europe.
Aberdeen considers the following when determining whether an issuer is an emerging market company: the company is organized under the laws of, or has its principal office in an emerging market country; the company has its principal securities trading market in an emerging market country; and/or the company derives a majority of its annual revenue or earnings or assets from goods produced, sales made or services performed in an emerging market country. The Portfolio may invest in securities denominated in U.S. dollars and currencies of emerging market countries in which it is permitted to invest. The Portfolio typically has full currency exposure to those markets in which it invests. The Portfolio may invest in securities of any market capitalization, including small and mid-cap securities.
Aberdeen employs a fundamental, bottom-up equity investment style which is characterized by intensive, first-hand research and disciplined company evaluation. Stocks are identified for their long-term, fundamental value. The stock selection process contains two filters, first quality and then price. In the quality filter, the investment team seeks to determine whether the company has good growth prospects and a balance sheet that supports expansion. The team also considers how a company?s corporate governance and risk management practices may affect that company?s long-term value. In the price filter, the investment team assesses the value of a company by reference to standard financial ratios, and estimates the value of the company relative to its market price and the valuations of companies within a relevant universe.
The investment team may sell a security when it perceives that a company?s business direction or growth prospects have changed or the company?s valuations are no longer attractive. The Portfolio may invest in securities of companies of any market sector. The Portfolio does not have a strategy to focus its investments in any particular sector, but may have a significant amount of its assets invested in securities of companies of a particular sector.
