About VWILX

This fund, established in 1981, seeks out companies based outside the United States that exhibit strong potential for rapid expansion. It employs a dynamic investment approach designed to capitalize on the growth of the global economy. For instance, an ideal investment could be a foreign consumer goods company experiencing substantial earnings growth. Given its focus on international equities, including those in both mature and nascent markets, this fund may demonstrate higher volatility compared to domestic-only investments. It is often considered a suitable component for investors aiming to enhance the diversification of an existing stock portfolio.
