The Fund seeks long-term total returns primarily through capital appreciation. The Fund will be actively managed, investing in companies that are located in emerging markets, but also to a lesser extent, developed or frontier market countries (as defined by MSCI). Investments in developed markets will be focused on companies which conduct business in emerging markets, for example by having substantial assets based in growth or revenues generated by goods and services produced in, or sales made in, emerging markets. The Investment Manager employs an unconstrained approach and seeks to identify investment themes relating to structural and economic development with a bias to small and mid cap stocks. The Investment Manager focuses on identifying themes that are enduring or that the length and duration of which have been underappreciated by the broader market. The Fund may hold concentrated positions within a theme but will generally be well diversified. The Fund will invest in shares and other securities with equity characteristics such as preferred stocks, convertible securities or depository receipts. The Fund may invest either directly or via derivatives. Derivatives may be used to hedge (manage) risk and for investment purposes (such as gaining exposure to a security).
