Colonial FirstChoice Personal Super - MFS Global Equity - Managed Fund (Closed)

Fund Objective
To provide capital appreciation over the longer term by investing in a diversified portfolio of global shares (unhedged) and aims to outperform the MSCI World Index over rolling five-year periods, before fees and taxes.
Fund Strategy
MFS' philosophy is based on the belief that companies with sustainable above-average growth and returns, and whose prospects are not reflected in their valuation, will outperform in the long run. The value of compounding high returns on capital and above-average growth rates over long time periods is often underestimated by the market. Through fundamental analysis, MFS seeks to identify enduring businesses, focusing on operational risks and the long-term potential for change.
