C000140697 Investment Objective and Strategy
AB FlexFee Emerging Markets Growth Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Ab Cap Fund, Inc..
Investment objective
The Fund’s investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital.
Principal investment strategy
At least 80% of the Funds net assets will under normal circumstances be invested in securities of emerging market companies and related derivatives. An emerging market country is a country whose per capita gross national income is not classified as High Income by the World Bank, that is not a member of the Organization for Economic Co-Operation and Development, or that is represented in a MSCI emerging market equity index. Examples of emerging market countries include Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Croatia, Egypt, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Malaysia, Mexico, the Peoples Republic of China, Peru, the Philippines, Poland, Russia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey and Venezuela. Emerging market countries may include countries referred to as frontier markets, such as Egypt, Nigeria and Vietnam.
In managing the Fund, the Adviser will employ a bottom up investment process that focuses on a companys prospective earnings growth, valuation and business quality. The Adviser will typically look for companies that have strong, experienced management teams and the potential to support greater than expected earnings growth rates, and will combine fundamental and quantitative analyses in its stock selection process. The Adviser will not target any particular country, sector or market capitalization weightings for the Fund. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates can have a dramatic impact on the returns of equity securities. While the Adviser may hedge the foreign currency exposure resulting from the Funds security positions through the use of currency-related derivatives, it is not required to do so.
The Fund may also take long and short positions in currencies (or related derivatives) independent of any such security positions, including taking a position in a currency when it does not hold any securities traded in that currency.
