The investment seeks to provide income and long-term capital appreciation. The fund pursues its investment objective by investing primarily in equity securities of companies based in countries outside the United States, consisting principally of high dividend-paying stocks with dividend growth potential. It generally invests in large-cap or mid-cap stocks and may also hold depositary receipts and real estate investment trusts. The fund will invest its assets so that at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) are invested in dividend-paying securities.
