About BGVCX

Brandes Global Equity Fund Class C is a mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies worldwide, encompassing both the United States and international markets. The fund pursues a value-oriented investment approach, seeking out larger companies—typically between 35 and 85 holdings—that are, according to its managers, trading below their intrinsic value. This strategy is designed to provide broad geographic and sector diversification, and the fund maintains a flexible approach that is not constrained by benchmark indices or style drift. The fund is characterized by relatively low portfolio valuation metrics, such as price-to-earnings and price-to-book ratios, compared to the broader market, which aligns with its value investing philosophy. Brandes Global Equity Fund Class C also features active management with a high active share, indicating substantial deviation from its benchmark index. The fund is notable for its annual operating expense cap, a maximum deferred sales charge on shares redeemed within a year, and a commitment to broad diversification. It aims to provide investors with exposure to both developed and emerging markets, making it a significant participant in the global equity mutual fund space.
