LGGTX Investment Objective and Strategy
Loomis Sayles Global Growth Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Natixis Funds Trust II.
Investment objective
The Funds investment goal is long-term growth of capital.
Principal investment strategy
Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest primarily in equity securities, including common stocks and depositary receipts. The Fund will invest in securities that provide exposure to no fewer than three countries, which will include the U.S. In addition, the Fund will invest at least 40% of its assets in securities of companies that maintain their principal place of business or conduct their principal business activities outside the U.S., companies that have their securities traded on non-U.S. exchanges or companies that have been formed under the laws of non-U.S. countries. This 40% minimum investment amount may be reduced to 30% if market conditions for these investments or specific foreign markets are deemed unfavorable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Adviser uses a proprietary definition to determine whether a security is classified as U.S.
or non-U.S. In determining the location of an issuer for these purposes, or where the issuers principal activities are based, the Adviser will consider a variety of factors (collectively designed to assess whether an issuer is economically tied to a particular country or region), including but not limited to: the markets in which the issuers securities are primarily traded; the location of the issuers headquarters, principal offices, or operations; the country where the issuer is organized; the percentage of the issuers revenues or profits derived from goods produced or sold, investments made, or services performed in the relevant country; and information provided by third-party data analytics service providers. No single factor will necessarily be determinative, nor must all factors be present for the Adviser to assess an issuers location.
The Adviser may assign different weights to these factors based on different geographic policies, countries, or products. The Fund may also invest up to 30% of its assets in emerging markets securities. The Fund considers a security to be an emerging market security if its country, as determined through the proprietary process described above, is included in the MSCI Emerging & Frontier Markets Index. The Fund focuses on stocks of large-capitalization companies, but the Fund may invest in companies of any size. The Fund normally invests across a wide range of sectors and industries. The Funds portfolio manager employs a growth style of equity management, which means that the Fund seeks to invest in companies with sustainable competitive advantages versus others, long-term structural growth drivers that will lead to above-average future cash flow growth, attractive cash flow returns on invested capital, and management teams focused on creating long-term value for shareholders.
The Funds portfolio manager also aims to invest in companies when they trade at a significant discount to the estimate of intrinsic value (i.e., companies with share prices trading significantly below what the portfolio manager believes the share price should be). The Fund will consider selling a portfolio investment when the portfolio manager believes an unfavorable structural change occurs within a given business or the markets in which it operates, when a critical underlying investment assumption is flawed, when a more attractive reward-to-risk opportunity becomes available, when the current price fully reflects intrinsic value, or for other investment reasons which the portfolio manager deems appropriate. The Fund may also engage in foreign currency transactions (including foreign currency forwards and foreign currency futures) for hedging purposes, invest in options for hedging and investment purposes and invest in interests in real estate investment trusts (REITs) and securities issued pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (Rule 144A securities) and other privately placed investments such as private equity investments.
In addition, the Fund may gain investment exposure to Chinese companies through the use of a structure known as a variable interest entity (VIE). The VIE structure allows investors, such as the Fund, to gain exposure to sectors or industries where non-Chinese ownership is restricted or prohibited by the Chinese government. Under normal market conditions, the Adviser does not intend to hedge currency risk, which may cause the Fund to incur losses that would not have been incurred had the risk been hedged. Except as provided above, the Fund is not limited in the percentage of its assets that it may invest in these instruments.
