About ADVLX
Vaughan Nelson International Fund Class I is an actively managed mutual fund focused on providing long-term capital appreciation through investments in international equities. The fund primarily targets small- and mid-cap companies located outside the United States, with a particular emphasis on firms deemed to have undervalued assets or strong growth prospects. It invests at least 80% of its net assets in foreign equities, concentrating its portfolio on a selective group of companies mainly within developed markets, but it may also allocate to emerging markets. Notable sectors represented include technology, communication services, financial services, consumer cyclical, and industrials. The fund maintains a high-conviction approach, with a relatively concentrated portfolio—its top ten holdings account for over half of total assets. Designed for institutional investors, it features a competitive expense ratio and a minimum investment requirement that suits large-scale allocators. Since its inception in 2013, Vaughan Nelson International Fund Class I has aimed to deliver disciplined international exposure, offering diversification benefits for portfolios seeking to access global growth opportunities beyond U.S. borders.
