About VCIEX
The VALIC Company I International Equities Index Fund is a mutual fund designed to achieve long-term capital growth by tracking the performance of the MSCI EAFE Index, a benchmark representative of large- and mid-cap stocks from developed markets outside the United States and Canada. Its investment strategy involves passively investing at least 80% of net assets in stocks that are part of the index, providing broad exposure to international developed markets across sectors such as healthcare, technology, consumer goods, and energy. The fund’s holdings include multinational industry leaders like Novo Nordisk, ASML Holding, Nestlé, Toyota Motor, and LVMH, among others, and its top 10 holdings account for roughly 15% of the portfolio. As a passively managed index fund, it aims to mirror the performance of international equities markets rather than outperform them, offering investors an efficient way to diversify beyond U.S. stocks with a low expense ratio and prudent cost structure. This fund plays a significant role in global diversification strategies, granting access to economic areas such as Europe, Australia, and the Far East while reflecting the overall performance of developed markets abroad.
