About BRKTX
MFS Blended Research Emerging Markets Equity Fund Class R3 is an open-ended mutual fund aimed at achieving capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities tied to emerging market economies. Employing a blended research approach, the fund integrates both fundamental and quantitative analysis in its disciplined portfolio construction process, seeking out high-quality companies trading at attractive valuations with potential catalysts for long-term outperformance. The strategy typically allocates at least 80% of net assets to stocks from emerging markets, which may include significant exposure to specific countries or regions based on opportunity. This fund features a diversified portfolio across around 140 holdings, with a notable percentage invested in its top ten positions and a high active share, reflecting a portfolio that significantly diverges from its benchmark—the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Class R3 shares carry no initial sales charge and are tailored for eligible institutional or retirement plan investors. With its focus on capturing the growth potential of emerging economies, the fund serves as a vehicle for investors seeking diversified equity exposure beyond developed markets, thereby fulfilling a specialized role in global asset allocation and diversification strategies.
