About MSDEX
Morgan Stanley Institutional Fund International Resilience Portfolio Class C is an open-end mutual fund focused on international equity investments outside the United States. Managed by Morgan Stanley Investment Management, the fund targets long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in high-quality non-U.S. companies. Its strategy emphasizes companies with robust and sustainable returns on operating capital, supported by dominant market positions and hard-to-replicate intangible assets such as brands, networks, licenses, and patents. The portfolio spans both growth and value stocks across various market capitalizations and is constructed using in-depth internal research. A distinguishing feature of this fund is its consideration of companies that exhibit social responsibility and environmental stewardship in their operations. The fund is non-diversified, typically holding a concentrated number of positions, and benchmarks its performance against the MSCI All Country World ex USA Net Index. Class C shares of the fund are subject to a deferred sales charge that declines to zero after one year. The International Resilience Portfolio plays a significant role for investors seeking exposure to resilient international firms with the potential for sustainable, long-term growth in developed and emerging markets beyond the U.S..
