Long-term capital growth.
The fund invests in equity securities worldwide across all market capitalizations, applying a bottom-up value approach that screens for attractive price relative to long-term earnings, asset value, cash flow potential, and metrics including price/earnings and price/cash flow ratios. The manager may sell when a security becomes overvalued or a more attractive opportunity emerges. Because the fund's holdings and regional or sectoral positioning shift with economic conditions and the manager's assessments, performance may diverge materially from any benchmark.

The 5 share classes hold the same portfolio
| Share class | Expense ratio | 1 year | 3 years | 5 years | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.03% | +19.11% | +53.08% | +38.53% | -9.83% | |
| 0.78% | +19.41% | +54.25% | +40.29% | -9.78% | |
| 1.28% | +18.83% | +51.96% | +36.82% | -9.88% | |
| 0.73% | +19.44% | +54.45% | +40.62% | -9.76% | |
| 1.78% | +18.20% | +49.60% | +33.40% | -10.02% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 7.22pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.44pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
