Mutual Fund · Currency in USD · Last updated Jul 17, 2026

The portfolio is a "fund of funds," which means that the Portfolio generally allocates its assets among other mutual funds managed by the Advisor although it also has the ability to invest directly in securities and derivatives. It seeks to achieve exposure to a broad portfolio of securities of both U.S. companies and non-U.S. companies associated with countries with developed and emerging markets, including frontier markets, by primarily purchasing shares of U.S. Core Equity 2 Portfolio, International Core Equity Portfolio and Emerging Markets Core Equity Portfolio (the "underlying funds").
