About TEGCX
Touchstone Sands Capital Emerging Markets Growth Fund Class C is an actively managed mutual fund focused on long-term capital appreciation through investments in equity and equity-related securities of companies based in emerging market countries. The fund leverages proprietary, bottom-up research to identify innovative growth businesses with significant potential, generally selecting a concentrated portfolio of 30 to 50 holdings. Its investment approach allows for opportunistic exposure to frontier markets in addition to core emerging economies. The fund seeks to outperform the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and exhibits a high active share, meaning its holdings differ substantially from the benchmark. The portfolio is notably weighted toward sectors such as financials, consumer discretionary, and information technology, and has a significant emphasis on companies in India, Brazil, and China. Key portfolio holdings often include leading names like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing, MercadoLibre, Tencent Holdings, and HDFC Bank. With a substantial portion of assets allocated to its top holdings, the fund targets growth-oriented companies it believes are positioned to benefit from long-term trends in emerging markets. This strategy aims to capture opportunities driven by structural economic and demographic changes across diverse global regions.
