Level Two: Manager Fact Sheet
Used in the Directed Account Plan International Stock Option
as of 6/30/10
This Fund seeks high growth potential from small company foreign stocks. The portfolio manager’s approach is to identify trends that he believes will fuel long-term growth worldwide and to invest in companies that potentially stand to benefit from these transforming economic themes. Typically, smaller, less established businesses have provided stronger growth potential than larger companies to compensate investors for added risk. In addition, they are less correlated than larger foreign stocks to the U.S. market, providing diversification against local economic factors.
