EGLRX Investment Objective and Strategy

Aberdeen International Real Estate Equity Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by abrdn Funds.

Investment objective

The Aberdeen International Real Estate Equity Fund (the International Real Estate Equity Fund or the Fund) seeks long-term capital growth.

Principal investment strategy

Under normal circumstances, the International Real Estate Equity Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in the equity securities of non-U.S. issuers located in at least three countries (excluding the United States) which are (i) principally engaged in the real estate industry, (ii) are principally engaged in real estate financing or (iii) control real estate assets with an aggregate estimated value equal to no less than 50% of such issuers assets. These companies include, but are not limited to, real estate investment trusts (REITs), real estate operating companies and homebuilders, and companies with a majority of real estate holdings, such as hotel and entertainment companies. Principally engaged in the real estate industry or in real estate financing means that a majority of a companys revenues are derived from the real estate industry or from real estate financing, respectively, or that the company is classified as a real estate company under the Standard & Poors Global Industry Classification System (GICS).

To control real estate assets means to own such assets. The Fund concentrates its investments in the securities of companies engaged principally in the real estate industry and may invest all of its assets in such securities; however, the Fund may temporarily invest less than 25% of its net assets in such securities during periods of adverse economic conditions in the real estate industry. The International Real Estate Equity Fund pursues a flexible strategy of investing in companies throughout the world. However, the International Real Estate Equity Fund gives particular consideration to investments in Western Europe, Australia, Canada, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, China, India and Brazil. The Adviser defines Western Europe as Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom.

The Fund may invest without limitation in the securities of foreign issuers that are publicly traded in the United States or on foreign exchanges. The Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization. The Fund may borrow up to 10% of its total assets for investment purposes. In managing the assets of the Fund, the Adviser generally pursues a value oriented approach. It focuses on investments throughout the world and seeks to identify the equity securities of foreign companies which are trading at prices substantially below the underlying value of the real estate properties or revenues of the companies. The Adviser also considers other company fundamentals and the strength of a companys management in making investment decisions, as well as economic, market and political conditions in the countries in which a company is located and operates.

The Fund also invests in the securities of companies with growing earning streams that the Adviser believes can be purchased at reasonable prices, giving consideration to the business sectors in which the companies operate and the current stage of the economic cycle. The Fund may invest a portion of its assets in shares of initial public offerings (IPOs) and secondary offerings.
