About HLMSX

Harding Loevner International Small Companies Portfolio Investor is a mutual fund focused on providing long-term capital appreciation by investing in high-quality, growth-oriented companies with modest market capitalizations outside the United States. The fund targets small-cap firms across both developed and emerging markets, seeking companies that demonstrate consistent earnings growth and strong financial health. Its investment universe excludes U.S.-based stocks, emphasizing global diversification and exposure to smaller companies that may offer differentiated growth potential compared to larger, established multinational firms. The portfolio is actively managed and typically consists of a concentrated selection of holdings across sectors such as basic materials, industrials, technology, energy, and financial services. By focusing exclusively on international small-cap equities, the fund aims to capture opportunities in under-researched and rapidly growing market segments, playing a significant role in the foreign small/mid-growth category and serving investors seeking to enhance diversification and tap into growth trends outside the U.S..
