Overview
How It Works
Invest in companies of any size throughout the world, but primarily in developed markets and similar to those in the MSCI World ex USA IM Index. Select and blend complementary investment strategies from a broad universe of investment managers into a single fund to provide attractive risk/return characteristics. Manager selection and allocations are determined using multi-factor screening and optimization, augmented by deep qualitative and fundamental due diligence. The Fund aims to deliver robust alpha and broad diversification, while maintaining factor-neutral biases (such as size, value and momentum) across the international equity market.
This Fund may be suitable for long-term investors looking for diversification and the growth potential of international stocks, and who have an above-average tolerance for risk.

The Morningstar RatingTM for funds, or "star rating," is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods. Past performance is no guarantee of future results.
