The Fund aims to achieve investment growth over the long term (5 years, or more). It also looks to outperform the S&P 500 Index (the “Index”) over rolling 3-year periods, after the deduction of charges. The Fund is actively managed, and invests at least 75% of its assets in shares of companies domiciled in the United States of America (US), or which have significant US business operations. There is no restriction on size, but investment tends to focus on larger companies.
