About WAIOX

The Wasatch International Opportunities Fund Investor Class is a mutual fund designed to provide long-term capital growth by investing primarily in foreign micro-cap companies—those with market capitalizations typically below $1.5 billion at the time of purchase. The fund maintains a diversified portfolio, usually holding between 60 and 90 positions, and seeks to identify companies located outside the U.S. with strong financial fundamentals, sustainable competitive advantages, and high-quality management teams. The fund employs a bottom-up investment approach, which emphasizes in-depth, company-specific research to uncover compelling growth opportunities across developed and emerging markets. It is categorized within the foreign small/mid-growth segment, focusing on smaller, rapidly expanding firms with higher valuations and growth rates compared to their larger peers. By targeting this universe, the fund aims to capture growth potential in less crowded segments of global equity markets, making it a distinctive option for those seeking international diversification beyond large-cap stocks.
