About VCFVX
The VALIC Company I International Value Fund is a mutual fund specializing in international large-cap value equities. Its primary objective is long-term capital growth, achieved by investing at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of foreign issuers across a diverse range of developed and emerging markets. The fund typically allocates its assets among at least three different countries, including limited exposure to U.S. securities, with a focus on common and preferred stocks, rights, warrants, and American Depository Receipts.
Managed by sub-advisers Columbia Management Investment Advisers and Goldman Sachs Asset Management as of April 2024, the fund employs a value investing strategy—targeting companies that are considered undervalued based on metrics such as low price ratios and strong dividend yields. The portfolio is notably diversified by sector, with significant exposures to industrials, energy, technology, healthcare, and consumer cyclical companies. Its holdings frequently include multinational firms in Europe and Asia, reflecting its global perspective. The fund stands out for its cost-efficiency, being priced within the second-lowest fee quintile among peers, and it supports a moderate turnover ratio, balancing active management with long-term investment horizons. It serves investors seeking international diversification and value-oriented equity exposure within their portfolios.
