Previous objective | New Objective |
The fund's investment objectives are to achieve long-term growth of capital and income. The fund invests primarily in common stocks, most of which have a history of paying dividends. The fund's equity investments are generally limited to securities of companies that are included on its eligible list. In addition, the fund may invest up to 5% of its assets, at the time of purchase, in securities of companies that are not included on its eligible list. Securities are added to, or deleted from, the eligible list based upon a number of factors, such as the fund's investment objectives and policies, whether a company is deemed to be an established company of sufficient quality and a company's dividend payment prospects. Although the fund focuses on investments in medium to larger capitalization companies, the fund's investments are not limited to a particular capitalization size. In the selection of common stocks and other securities for investment, potential for capital appreciation and future dividends are given more weight than current yield. The fund may invest up to 15% of its assets, at the time of purchase, in securities of issuers domiciled outside the United States. On an ancillary basis, as described in the prospectus, the fund may invest into straight debt securities. The fund's investments in straight debt securities (i.e., not convertible into equity) will generally consist of investment grade securities. The fund may, however, invest up to 5% of its total net assets in straight debt securities rated Ba1 or below and BB+ or below by Nationally Recognized Statistical Ratings Organizations designated by the investment adviser or unrated but determined to be of equivalent quality by the investment adviser. |

In addition to the integration of sustainability risks as part of the investment adviser's investment decision making process, the investment adviser aims to manage a carbon footprint lower than the fund's selected index level as specified in the prospectus. The investment adviser also evaluates and applies ESG and norms-based screening to implement a negative screening policy relating to the fund's investments in corporate issuers. |
