About JAFMX

John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust Health Sciences Fund is a mutual fund specializing in the health care sector. Its primary objective is to achieve long-term capital growth by investing in growth stocks of companies operating across a broad range of health care industries, including pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, health care equipment, and related services. The fund employs a flexible approach, allocating assets among companies of various sizes and market capitalizations to capture opportunities throughout the sector. Notably, it is structured as a non-diversified fund, allowing it to concentrate investments in a smaller number of issuers, which can potentially increase both the opportunities for returns and exposure to specific risks. Designed primarily as an underlying investment for variable insurance and annuity products, the fund plays a significant role in providing sector-specific equity exposure to investors seeking to participate in the innovations and growth trends defining the health sciences industry.
