About MDIDX

The MFS International Diversification Fund is an open-ended mutual fund focused on international equity markets. Its primary objective is capital appreciation through a diversified approach that blends styles, regions, and market capitalizations. The fund achieves this by allocating assets across six underlying MFS-managed international stock funds, including dedicated exposure to both developed and emerging markets. This multi-manager, multi-style strategy is designed to efficiently diversify risk and adapt to evolving global market opportunities. With a disciplined risk-based allocation process and periodic rebalancing, the fund aims to provide broad access to global equities outside the United States. Its benchmark is the MSCI All Country World (ex-US) Index, reflecting its commitment to covering both developed and emerging international markets. The fund is structured to appeal to investors seeking a single, comprehensive international stock allocation that benefits from professional management and a blend of growth, value, and geographic strategies. As of May 2025, the fund manages over $41 billion in assets, reflecting its prominent role as a core international equity holding in diversified portfolios.
