EFGIX Investment Objective and Strategy
Eaton Vance Focused Global Opportunities Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Eaton Vance Growth Trust.
Investment objective
The Funds investment objective is to seek long-term capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest (i) primarily in equity securities; (ii) at least 30% of its net assets in companies located outside of the United States, which may include emerging market countries; and (iii) in issuers located in at least five different countries (including the United States). An issuer will be considered to be located outside of the United States if it is domiciled in, derives a significant portion of its revenue from, or its primary trading venue is outside of the United States. Securities may trade in the form of depositary receipts. The Fund expects to hold approximately 25 to 40 stocks. The Fund may invest in companies of any size, including smaller, less seasoned companies. More than 25% of the Funds total assets may be denominated in any single currency.
The Fund may also invest in publicly traded real estate investment trusts (REITs) and exchange-traded funds (ETFs), a type of pooled investment vehicle, in order to manage cash positions or seek exposure to certain markets or market sectors. In selecting securities to implement the Funds core investment approach, the portfolio manager seeks companies that, in his opinion, are high in quality or improving in quality. Investment decisions for the Fund are made primarily on the basis of fundamental research conducted by the investment advisers and sub-advisers research staff. The portfolio manager seeks companies which he believes have strong business franchises but whose value is not yet fully reflected in their share prices. Such companies may include companies with a high return on invested capital, companies with a sustainable competitive advantage and/or companies with shareholder-friendly management teams.
The Funds focus on valuation and quality companies may help dampen performance volatility in down markets. Securities may be sold if, in the opinion of the portfolio manager, the price moves above a fair level of valuation, the companys fundamentals deteriorate or to pursue more attractive investment opportunities.
