Its primary objective is to achieve capital appreciation by investing predominantly in foreign equities, including those from both developed and emerging markets.

This core international stock fund offers broad diversification across various regions, sectors, investment styles, and market capitalizations, aiming to reduce risk while capturing global growth opportunities. The fund’s portfolio often features significant allocations to countries such as Japan, the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, and the Netherlands, reflecting exposure to major global economies outside the United States. The MFS Research International Fund Class C is benchmarked against the MSCI EAFE Index, which tracks the performance of large- and mid-cap equities in Europe, Australasia, and the Far East. With its comprehensive, research-driven strategy, the fund plays a significant role in providing investors with access to international diversification and the potential for long-term growth in global equity markets.
