About JAFSX

The John Hancock Variable Insurance Trust Science & Technology Fund is a specialized mutual fund designed to offer investors exposure to the dynamic sectors of science and technology. Its primary purpose is to provide investment growth by allocating capital to companies operating across industries such as materials, chemicals, industrials, capital goods, aerospace, and defense, as well as commercial and professional services.

This approach enables the fund to pursue targeted investment opportunities within the science and technology landscape, capitalizing on advancements and innovation that drive these markets. As a component of variable insurance products, this fund plays a key role in helping investors diversify their portfolios within the insurance framework, offering unique access to growth-oriented sectors that shape modern industry and technological progress.
