The Fund aims to generate long term returns by investing primarily in European equity and equity-linked securities that are trading at a discount to their perceived intrinsic value. The Fund aims to achieve this investment objective by investing primarily in equity and equity-linked securities of European issuers (such as debentures, notes or preferred stock) that are traded on exchanges or recognised markets or over the counter, in both developed and emerging European markets. The Fund may also invest in companies that have a significant exposure to Europe and may be located in any part of the world. The Investment Manager generally seeks diversification rather than concentration by industry, country or currency. The Fund may invest in pooled real estate investment vehicles such as real estate investment trusts. For short-term cash management, the Fund may invest in cash and/or investment grade money market instruments with maturities up to one year. The Fund is managed in reference to MSCI Europe Index (Net) USD (the "Benchmark") The Fund’s performance is compared to the Benchmark in marketing materials and the performance fee for the Fund is calculated based on the Benchmark, as disclosed under the heading “Performance Fee” below. The Benchmark represents the best approximation of the universe of securities in which the Fund may invest. The Fund’s investment policy is not constrained and the degree of deviation from the Benchmark may be significant. Class D EUR€ Shares do not pay a dividend. . Any income arising is retained in the Fund and reflected in the value of the share class. The Fund may invest up to 25% of the Net Asset Value of the Fund in European emerging markets. However, the Fund may have significant concentration in particular industries from time to time (up to 35% of NAV of the Fund). Shares in the Fund can be bought and sold on any business day in Ireland. Recommendation: this Fund may not be appropriate for short-term investment.
