For investors seeking a portfolio that leans toward developed market small cap and value.
The Fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yield performance, before fees and expenses, of the Morningstar® Developed Markets ex-US Factor Tilt IndexTM (Underlying Index).
The Morningstar® Developed Markets ex-US Factor Tilt IndexSM measures the performance of stocks located in developed countries across the world (as defined by Morningstar®, excluding the United States) with increased exposure to small-capitalization and value stocks. Stocks that are deemed to be small capitalization or small value have an overweighting in the index compared to their weight in a corresponding market-capitalization-weighted index. Likewise, stocks designated as "large" or "growth" stocks have underweighting compared to a standard market-capitalization weighting.
