About AFCHX
The American Century Focused International Growth Fund C Class is an open-end mutual fund specializing in global equity investments, with a particular emphasis on large companies situated in developed and emerging markets outside of the United States. The fund’s key objective is capital growth, achieved by selectively investing in a concentrated portfolio of international companies that the management team believes possess strong growth potential. By maintaining exposure to multiple developed countries and emerging economies, the fund offers diversification beyond U.S. borders and provides access to international market trends and opportunities. The fund is managed by American Century Investment Management Inc., and is designed to be accessible through financial intermediaries or institutions. Its strategy is benchmarked against international indices that exclude U.S. equities, aiming to capture growth in foreign markets while mitigating some domestic risk factors. The C Class structure typically includes higher ongoing expenses, but often waives upfront sales charges for investors seeking international diversification through professionally managed portfolios.
