About REFGX
Emerging Markets Equities Fund R-6 is an actively managed mutual fund designed to achieve long-term capital growth by investing primarily in common stocks and other equity securities of companies located in developing countries. The fund emphasizes exposure to firms that are growing faster than their broader markets, offering investors access to dynamic sectors such as technology, healthcare, financial services, and industrials. Notable holdings frequently include major international names like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, Tencent, and Innovent Biologics, reflecting a strong orientation toward innovation and market leadership in emerging economies. With a diversified approach, the fund typically invests at least 90% of its assets in companies domiciled or primarily operating in emerging markets, as determined by recognized global standards. It features a relatively low expense ratio and a conservative portfolio turnover rate, maintaining a cost advantage over many competitors. As part of its structure, the R-6 share class caters to retirement plans and institutional investors, focusing on capital appreciation for long-term investment horizons. The fund plays a significant role in broadening diversification beyond developed markets, helping investors participate in the evolving growth potential of emerging economies.
