The objective of this Sub-Fund is to achieve total return, primarily through capital appreciation, and secondarily through dividends, by investing primarily in equity securities from issuers domiciled in the USA. The Investment Manager employs an active bottom-up research process to identify individual securities believed to possess superior risk-return characteristics, taking into account both future growth potential and valuation consideration. The stock selection process provides for a diversified portfolio that spans the style spectrum, from growth to value, without preference to capitalization size, sector, or industry.
