About GGSCX
Goldman Sachs Growth Strategy Portfolio Class C is a global allocation mutual fund designed to pursue long-term capital appreciation with a secondary aim of providing current income. The fund employs a multi-asset approach, investing across three principal asset classes: equities, fixed income, and cash equivalents. While it has a global focus, its holdings are primarily concentrated in major developed markets such as the United States, Canada, Japan, and significant European economies. Typically, the portfolio maintains at least 10% of its assets in bonds, limits equity exposure to below 70%, and allocates a minimum of 40% of assets to non-U.S. securities or bonds. The strategy leverages both Goldman Sachs-affiliated domestic and international funds along with unaffiliated exchange-traded funds to achieve its objectives. This diversified structure provides exposure to various sectors, including consumer defensive, energy, and real estate, among others, reflecting the fund's commitment to broad-based growth potential while managing risk across geographies and industries.
