IBIIX Investment Objective and Strategy

Delaware Global Equity Fund II describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Ivy Funds.

Investment objective

To seek to provide total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

Ivy Global Equity Income Fund invests in equity securities that are issued by companies of any size located largely in developed markets around the world, that IICO believes will be able to generate a reasonable level of current income for investors given current market conditions, and that demonstrate favorable prospects for total return. The Fund focuses on companies that IICO believes have the ability to maintain and/or grow their dividends while providing capital appreciation over the long-term. The Fund typically holds a limited number of stocks (generally 50 to 70). Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities. For this purpose, such equity securities consist primarily of dividend-paying common stocks across the globe. Although the Fund invests primarily in large-capitalization companies (typically companies with market capitalizations of at least $10 billion at the time of acquisition), it may invest in companies of any size.

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 40% (or, if IICO deems it warranted by market conditions, at least 30%) of its total assets in securities of non-U.S. issuers. In selecting securities for the Fund, IICO uses a company-specific stock selection process. IICO seeks to identify higher-quality companies that it believes are reasonably-valued, have a strong likelihood of maintaining and/or growing their dividend, and have a relatively stable to improving fundamental outlook, relative to market expectations. IICO considers an analysis of sectors/industries and geographical areas (when relevant) when determining the attractiveness of names and weightings of sectors, and to a lesser degree, countries. IICO also considers several other factors, including a companys history of fundamentals, ability to sustain its business model, growth potential, management proficiency and competitive environment.

Part of IICOs process includes an initial screening of the investable universe based on key financial, valuation and technical criteria. Many of the companies in which the Fund may invest have diverse operations, with products or services in foreign markets. Therefore, the Fund may have indirect exposure to various additional foreign markets through investments in these companies, even if the Fund is not invested directly in such markets. In an effort to manage foreign currency exposure, the Fund may use forward foreign currency contracts to either increase or decrease exposure to a given currency. Generally, in determining whether to sell a security, IICO uses the same type of analysis that it uses in buying securities of that type. For example, IICO may sell a security if it believes the security no longer offers attractive current income prospects or significant growth potential, if it believes the management of the company has weakened, and/or there exists political or economic instability in the issuers country.

IICO also may sell a security to reduce the Funds holding in that security, to take advantage of what it believes are more attractive investment opportunities or to raise cash.
