MINBX Investment Objective and Strategy
Madison International Stock Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Madison Funds.
Investment objective
The Madison International Stock Fund seeks long-term growth of capital.
Principal investment strategy
Under normal market conditions, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (including borrowings for investment purposes) in the stock of foreign companies. For this purpose, a foreign company is one whose principal operations are located outside the U.S., or that is organized outside the U.S., whose securities are principally traded outside of the U.S., and/or whose securities are quoted or denominated in a foreign currency. The types of stocks that the fund may invest in include common stocks, securities convertible into common stocks, preferred stocks, and other securities representing equity interests such as American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) (which represent an interest in the shares of a non-U.S. company that have been deposited with a U.S. bank, trade in U.S. dollars and clear through U.S.
settlement systems, thus allowing the holder of an ADR to avoid having to transact in a foreign currency), European Depositary Receipts (EDRs) and Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs). EDRs and GDRs are receipts evidencing an arrangement with a non-U.S. financial institution similar to that for ADRs and are designed for use in non-U.S. securities markets. The fund may also invest in debt securities, foreign money market instruments, and other income bearing securities as well as forward foreign currency exchange contracts and other derivative securities and contracts. The fund usually holds securities of issuers located in at least three countries other than the U.S. and generally holds 60-80 individual securities in its portfolio at any given time. Typically, a majority of the funds assets are invested in relatively large capitalization stocks of issuers located or operating in developed countries.
Such securities are those issued by companies located in countries included in the Morgan Stanley Capital International, Europe, Australasia, and Far East (MSCI EAFE) Index. The fund may also invest up to 30% of its assets in securities of companies whose principal business activities are located in emerging market countries. The subadviser typically maintains this segment of the funds portfolio in such stocks which it believes have a low market price relative to their perceived value based on fundamental analysis of the issuing company and its prospects. This is sometimes referred to as a value approach. It may also invest in foreign debt and other income bearing securities at times when it believes that income bearing securities have greater capital appreciation potential than equity securities.
Although the fund expects to pursue its investment objective utilizing its principal investment strategies regardless of market conditions, the fund may invest up to 100% in money market instruments. To the extent the fund engages in this temporary defensive position, the funds ability to achieve its investment objective may be diminished.
