Principal investment strategy
"The Fund invests substantially all of its assets in Class III shares of GMO Resources Fund (""Resources Fund""), a series of GMO Trust not offered in this Prospectus. Resources Fund invests in securities and other instruments. The Fund's investment objective and principal investment strategies are substantially similar to those of Resources Fund. Except as otherwise indicated, references to the Fund may also refer to Resources Fund, and references to actions undertaken or investments held by the Fund may also refer to those by Resources Fund. GMO serves as investment adviser for both the Fund and Resources Fund. GMO seeks to achieve the Fund's investment objective by investing primarily in equities of companies in the natural resources sector (as defined below). Given the expected growth and industrialization of emerging countries, GMO believes that global demand for many natural resources will increase, and, given the limited supply of many natural resources, that prices of these natural resources will increase over a long time period.
In managing the Fund, GMO seeks to invest in the securities of companies that it believes will benefit from, and avoid companies it believes will be adversely affected by, this expected long-term increase in natural resource prices. GMO determines the securities the Fund buys and sells based on its evaluation of companies' published financial information and corporate behavior (such as profit warnings, share issuance or repurchase, and director dealings in company stock), ESG (environmental social, and governance) criteria, securities' prices, commodities' prices, equity and bond markets, the overall global economy, and governmental policies. In selecting securities for the Fund, GMO uses a combination of investment methods to identify securities GMO believes have positive return potential relative to other securities of companies in the natural resources sector.
Some of these methods evaluate individual companies or groups of companies based on the ratio of their security price to historical financial information and forecasted financial information, such as book value, cash flow and earnings, and a comparison of these ratios to current and historical industry, market or company averages. Other methods focus on patterns of information, such as price movement or volatility of a security or groups of securities relative to other securities in the natural resources sector. At times, the Fund may have substantial exposure to a single asset class, industry, sector, country, region, or issuer. The Fund may invest in securities of companies of any market capitalization. The Fund also may engage in merger arbitrage. The factors GMO considers and investment methods GMO uses can change over time.
GMO does not manage the Fund to, or control the Fund's risk relative to, any securities index or securities benchmark. As an alternative to investing directly in equities, the Fund may invest in exchange-traded and over-the-counter (OTC) derivatives and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The Fund also may invest in derivatives and ETFs in an attempt to obtain or adjust elements of its long or short investment exposure, and as a substitute for securities lending. Derivatives used may include futures, options, forward currency contracts and swap contracts. In addition, the Fund may lend its portfolio securities. The Fund has a fundamental policy to concentrate its investments in the natural resources sector, and, under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in the securities of companies in that sector.
The Fund considers the ""natural resources sector"" to include companies that own, produce, refine, process, transport, and market natural resources and companies that provide related equipment, infrastructure, and services. The sector includes, for example, the following industries: integrated oil, oil and gas exploration and production, gold and other precious metals, steel and iron ore production, energy services and technology, base metal production, forest products, farming products, paper products, chemicals, building materials, coal, water, alternative energy sources, and environmental services. The Fund is permitted to invest directly and indirectly (e.g., through underlying funds or derivatives) in securities of companies tied economically to any country in the world, including emerging countries.
In addition to its investments in companies in the natural resources sector, the Fund also may invest up to 20% of its net assets in securities of any type of company. The Fund also may invest in GMO U.S. Treasury Fund, in money market funds unaffiliated with GMO, and directly in the types of investments typically held by money market funds. The Fund may hold cash, cash equivalents, and/or U.S. government securities to manage cash inflows and outflows as a result of shareholder purchases and redemptions."
