About MWNIX

MFS International New Discovery Fund Class I is a mutual fund focused on international small- and mid-cap equities. Its primary objective is capital appreciation by investing primarily in companies located outside the United States. The fund targets businesses with strong growth prospects and solid fundamental characteristics, seeking to uncover emerging opportunities in both developed and emerging global markets. It emphasizes high-quality companies with durable competitive advantages and robust management teams, applying a disciplined approach to valuation and growth potential. The fund is diversified across hundreds of holdings, with a substantial percentage of assets allocated to equities. It maintains a relatively low portfolio turnover and a high active share, reflecting a strategy that deviates significantly from its benchmark—the MSCI All Country World (ex-US) Small Mid Cap Index—by seeking underappreciated growth stories abroad. With assets exceeding $6 billion and a long-standing history since its 1997 inception, MFS International New Discovery Fund Class I plays a significant role for investors aiming to gain exposure to smaller, growth-oriented companies outside the U.S., thereby offering diversification benefits in a global equity portfolio.
