Principal investment strategy
Under normal circumstances, the funds sub-adviser, ClariVest Asset Management LLC (the sub-adviser), invests at least 80% of the funds net assets (plus the amount of borrowings, if any, for investment purposes) in equity securities (including American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) and European Depositary Receipts (EDRs)) of issuers economically tied to one or more emerging market countries. Issuers considered to be economically tied to emerging market countries include, without limitation: (1) an issuer organized under the laws of or maintaining a principal office or principal place(s) of business in one or more emerging markets; (2) an issuer of securities that are principally traded in one or more emerging markets; (3) an issuer that derives or is currently expected to derive 50% or more of its total sales, revenues, profits, earnings, growth, or another measure of economic activity from, the production or sale of goods or performance of services or making of investments or other economic activity in, one or more emerging markets, or that maintains or is currently expected to maintain 50% or more of its employees, assets, investments, operations, or other business activity in one or more emerging markets; (4) a governmental or quasi-governmental entity of an emerging market; or (5) any other issuer that the sub-adviser believes may expose the funds assets to the economic fortunes and risks of emerging markets.
The sub-adviser may consider any one of the five factors when making a determination that an issuer is economically tied to emerging markets. The sub-adviser may consider an issuer to be economically tied to emerging markets even though it may be based in a developed market such as the United States. The sub-adviser considers emerging market countries to be countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. The fund may (but is not required to) invest up to 100% of its total assets in foreign securities. The fund will normally emphasize investments in common stocks and other equity securities. The fund may invest in companies that exhibit growth characteristics and companies that exhibit value characteristics. In selecting securities for the fund, the sub-adviser utilizes quantitative tools in a bottom-up investment process.
Using an internally developed algorithm, the sub-adviser constructs a portfolio that seeks to maximize expected alpha, subject to constraints designed to meet long-run expected active risk goals. The annual portfolio turnover rate of the fund may exceed 125%. The fund may invest in exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in order to equitize cash positions, seek exposure to certain markets or market sectors and to hedge against certain market movements.
