Global Emerging Markets Leaders Fund: Stewart Investors

The Global Emerging Markets Leaders strategy launched in April 2020. It invests in 25-60 high-quality emerging market companies that we consider to be particularly well positioned to contribute to, and benefit from, sustainable development.

Investment Objective

The Stewart Investors Global Emerging Markets Leaders Fund (the "Fund") seeks to achieve capital growth over the long term.
Leaders simply means that the strategy is focused on companies with a market cap value of at least USD1 billion.

Strategy highlights: a focus on quality and sustainability

Companies must contribute to sustainable development.
We seek to invest in high-quality companies with exceptional cultures, strong franchises and resilient financials.
We avoid companies linked to harmful activities and engage and vote for positive change.
Our approach is long-term, bottom-up, high conviction and benchmark agnostic.
We seek to achieve capital growth – we define risk as the permanent loss of client capital.

The prospectus and the summary prospectus should be read carefully before investing.

Mutual fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Investments in foreign securities may involve risks such as social and political instability, market illiquidity, exchange-rate fluctuations, a high level of volatility and limited regulation. Investing in emerging markets involves different and greater risks, as these countries are substantially smaller, less liquid, and more volatile than securities markets in more developed markets. The portfolio manager’s consideration of sustainability factors could cause the Funds to perform differently compared to similar funds that do not have such factors incorporated into their investment strategies. The Funds are new with no operating history and there can be no assurance that the Funds will grow to or maintain an economically viable size, in which case the Board may determine to liquidate the Funds.
