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. Leveraging a distinctive strategy, the fund integrates both fundamental and quantitative research within a disciplined portfolio construction process. 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. This approach provides investors with exposure to growth opportunities in developing economies, which are often characterized by higher volatility and potential returns relative to developed markets. The fund benchmarks its performance against the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, underscoring its role as a tool for accessing diverse equities in regions experiencing rapid economic development. MFS launched this fund in September 2015 and continues to manage it with a focus on research-driven investment decisions, aiming to deliver consistent value over time to institutional and sophisticated investors.
