Fund Description

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities. Investments in equity securities may include, but are not limited to, dividend-paying securities, common stock and preferred stock of U.S. and foreign issuers, although the Fund may invest in stocks that provide little to no dividend income, but which offer the potential for capital growth. The Fund may purchase stocks of U.S. and foreign companies of any size, including small-cap and mid-cap companies and which are located in either developed countries or emerging market countries. Emerging market countries include certain countries located in Latin America, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and developing countries of Europe, primarily Eastern Europe. The Fund also may invest in currency futures and forward foreign currency exchange contracts, which are derivatives, in order to hedge against international currency exposure. The Fund’s subadviser, on behalf of the Fund, intends to diversify broadly among countries, but reserves the right to invest a substantial portion of the Fund’s assets in one or more countries if, in the subadviser’s opinion, economic and business conditions warrant such investments. The Fund invests its assets in investments that are tied economically to a number of countries throughout the world, including the United States. An investment will be deemed to be tied economically to a particular country, including the United States, if its issuer is organized in the particular country, has its principal place of business in such country, or generates more than 50% of its revenues from business in that country.In constructing the Fund’s portfolio, the subadviser employs a positive screening process to identify equity securities of companies that are attractive based on their fundamental valuation profile in addition to evaluating specific sustainability factors. In selecting securities, the subadviser focuses on, among other things, identifying discrepancies between what it believes to be a security’s fundamental value and its market price. In this regard, the fundamental value of a given security is the subadviser’s assessment of what the security is worth. The subadviser will select a security whose fundamental value it estimates to be greater than its market value at any given time. The subadviser bases its estimates of value upon country, economic, industry and company analysis, as well as upon a company’s management team, competitive advantage and core competencies. The subadviser then compares its assessment of a security’s value against the prevailing market prices with the aim of constructing a portfolio of stocks across industries and countries with attractive relative price/value characteristics. The Fund generally will sell a security when the subadviser believes it has reached a target price, fails to perform as expected by the subadviserincluding in terms of sustainability performance, fails the negative screening process described below, or when the subadviser believes other opportunities appear more attractive. The subadviser will seek to effect such sales in the manner and timeframe that it believes will achieve the best result for the Fund.Sustainability factors used by the subadviser in security selection are considered to be material factors that help the subadviser evaluate and compare the performance of environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) criteria relative to its industry and/or sector. The subadviser combines these considerations with additional financial analysis identified above to identify companies the subadviser believes will provide attractively valued and sustainable investment opportunities. In considering sustainability factors, the subadviser uses tools to identify 3 to 5 of the most financially relevant factors, on a per sector basis, that may impact the investment thesis across different industry sectors. The universe of sustainability issues includes, but is not limited to, environmental factors such as global greenhouse gas emissions and wastewater management; social factors such as customer privacy and product safety; and governance factors such as critical and systemic risk management.The subadviser also uses a proprietary risk tool to combine scores and data points from various research providers to develop an ESG Consensus Score of 1-10, with 10 having the best sustainability profile for individual investments. Absolute ESG risks, such as poor corporate governance and high ESG controversy levels are also included in the subadviser’s risk tool. Collectively, these inputs may lead to an ESG risk signal which flags companies with high ESG risks. Once outliers are identified, the subadviser conducts more in-depth analysis to assess the material impact of the ESG risks. The subadviser seeks to maintain a sustainability profile that is higher than the MSCI World Index® based on the subadviser’s framework. The Fund’s sustainability profile is measured against this benchmark profile and the corresponding results are calculated at least once each year.The subadviser also employs a negative screening process with regard to securities selection for the Fund. The negative screening process excludes from the Fund’s portfolio issuers with more than 5% of sales in alcohol, tobacco, defense, nuclear, genetically modified organisms (GMOs), water bottles, gambling and pornography,and issuers with morethan 10%of revenues derived from coal extraction. Consideration ofsustainability issues and exclusion criteria may reduce exposure or lead to avoidance of certain sectors and/or industries. This may impact performance and reduce the size of the globalinvestment universe.The subadviser may modifythe foregoing list of negative screensat any time without prior shareholder approval or notice.
