About AFCLX
American Century Focused International Growth Fund A Class is a diversified mutual fund designed to pursue capital appreciation by investing primarily in equities of companies located outside the United States. The fund targets growth-oriented businesses across a variety of market capitalizations, with a focus on both developed and emerging market countries. Utilizing a high-conviction, bottom-up stock selection process, its portfolio managers apply fundamental analysis to identify compelling growth opportunities internationally. The fund benchmarks its performance against the MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. Index, reflecting its global scope with the exclusion of U.S. equities. By focusing investments in at least three different developed countries, this fund seeks to balance global growth prospects while managing country-specific risks. Its role in the financial market is to offer investors diversified exposure to international growth equities, serving those seeking to complement U.S.-centric portfolios with broader, non-domestic growth potential.
