About MIEJX

MFS International Equity Fund Class A is a diversified, actively managed mutual fund focused on seeking long-term capital appreciation through investments in international equity securities. Designed to provide investors with exposure to developed markets outside the United States, the fund typically maintains at least 80% of its assets in non-U.S. companies, emphasizing large-cap companies across key sectors such as industrials, financials, healthcare, consumer discretionary, and information technology. The investment approach is characterized by a growth-at-a-reasonable-price philosophy with a quality bias, targeting high-quality businesses trading at discounts to their estimated intrinsic value. This strategy leverages deep fundamental research to identify companies with attractive valuations and strong growth prospects. Benchmarked against the MSCI EAFE Index, the fund’s holdings span Europe, Australasia, and the Far East, providing broad diversification and access to global economic growth drivers. With a long performance history dating back to 1996 and substantial assets under management, MFS International Equity Fund Class A holds a significant role as a core international equity holding for investors aiming to diversify beyond the U.S. market.
