About MGQLX
Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund, Inc. Global Stars Portfolio Class L is a diversified mutual fund designed to provide investors with broad exposure to global equity markets. The fund primarily invests in a mix of U.S. and international equities, with allocations spanning multiple regions and sectors. It seeks to identify and invest in high-quality companies with attractive growth and valuation characteristics, leveraging a blend of bottom-up research and global insights. Notably, as of June 2024, the fund rebranded from the Global Sustain Portfolio to the Global Stars Portfolio and revised its investment strategy by removing the mandate to invest at least 80% of assets in ESG-compliant securities. The benchmark also shifted from the MSCI World Net Index to the MSCI ACWI Net Index to reflect a broader investment universe. The fund’s portfolio managers focus on balancing domestic and foreign holdings, resulting in a diversified asset allocation with a significant portion of assets in both U.S. and international stocks. This approach positions the fund as a versatile choice for institutional investors seeking diversified global equity exposure.
