Colonial FirstChoice - GQG Partners Global Equity - Managed Fund

Fund Objective
The option aims to seek long term capital appreciation by investing directly or indirectly in equity securities and equity-linked securities in the world that GQG Partners believes can sustain long term earnings growth and are available at a reasonable price. The option aims to provide a rate of return (after fees, expenses and before taxes) which exceeds the return of the MSCI All Country World Index ex Tobacco Index over rolling 5 year periods.
Fund Strategy
The GQG Global Equity strategy seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in the equity securities of both U.S. and non-U.S. issuers that GQG believes are undervalued by the market. GQG believe that concentrated portfolios of high-quality companies with durable earnings, managed in a benchmark-agnostic fashion, will enable them to offer attractive risk-adjusted returns against the market index. The option does not hedge currency risk.
