About MVGCX
MFS Low Volatility Global Equity Fund Class C is an actively managed mutual fund focused on providing capital appreciation while seeking to maintain a lower volatility profile relative to broad global equity markets. The fund invests primarily in equity securities, typically allocating at least 80% of its net assets to global companies across both developed and emerging markets. Its investment strategy blends fundamental and quantitative research to identify stocks whose current valuations accurately reflect their growth and risk potential. The portfolio is constructed with an emphasis on diversification and defensive positioning, favoring securities that exhibit less price fluctuation than the overall market. The fund’s benchmark is the MSCI All Country World Index, which captures a wide spectrum of global equity opportunities. Key sector allocations are diversified, and top holdings often include leading companies from industries such as healthcare, technology, and consumer goods. Managed since December 2013, the fund is designed for investors seeking global equity exposure with a focus on mitigating market volatility, and it employs a modest sales charge structure with ongoing expense waivers in place to help manage costs.
