C000157627 Investment Objective and Strategy

Grandeur Peak International Stalwarts Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Financial Investors Trust.

Investment objective

The Funds investment objective is long-term growth of capital.

Principal investment strategy

The Fund invests primarily in foreign companies. Under normal market conditions, the Adviser will invest the Funds assets primarily in equity securities of foreign companies with market capitalizations of more than $1.5 billion at the time of purchase. The Fund may invest a significant amount of its total assets in securities issued by companies domiciled in emerging and frontier market countries. Domicile is determined by where the company is organized, located, has the majority of its assets, or receives the majority of its revenue. Emerging and frontier markets are those countries currently excluded from the MSCI World Index of developed markets. The Adviser uses a process of quantitative screening of the financial trends and health of each company in its investment universe, followed by bottom up fundamental analysis to identify growth companies that it believes to be best-in-class among their global peers.

This fundamental analysis generally includes studying the company, its industry, and its competitors, as well as talking with the management team. The Adviser travels extensively to visit companies and generally expects to meet with senior management. The Fund may also invest in growth companies that the Adviser believes have hit a temporary setback and therefore have a particularly appealing valuation relative to their long-term growth potential. At times, the Fund may invest in early stage companies and Initial Public Offerings (IPOs). The Adviser invests in what it believes to be the best investments available without regard to benchmark weightings in regions, countries or industries. The Adviser may significantly shift Fund assets between asset classes, sectors and geographic regions based on where it believes the best growth opportunities and valuations currently exist.

The Fund may invest a significant percentage of its assets in a few sectors or regions.
