About BRKIX
MFS Blended Research Emerging Markets Equity Fund Class I is a mutual fund designed to seek capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities from emerging market countries.

Its objective is to identify high-quality companies trading at favorable valuations, with the expectation of a catalyst that could drive long-term value. The fund maintains broad diversification across sectors and geographies, typically allocating at least 80% of its net assets to companies economically tied to emerging markets.
