RS Emerging Markets A (GBEMX) seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in a diversified portfolio of companies located in developing economies.

The fund expects long-term capital appreciation to be accompanied by dividend income, which may vary depending on factors such as the location of the investments. It focuses on companies that trade at reasonable prices and can sustain above-average growth rates.

Petroleo Brasileiro S.A. (PBR - Analyst Report - Analyst Report), Reliance Capital Ltd. and Dragon Oil Plc are among the fund’s key holdings.

AIM Developing Markets A (GTDDX) was incepted in January 1994. The investment seeks long-term capital growth; income is a secondary consideration.

The fund invests in issuers in at least four countries, but invests no more than a quarter of assets in issuers in any one country. As of June 30, its portfolio turnover was 54%.

Borge Endresen has managed the fund since May 2003. It has outstripped total returns of its benchmark in the last 3- and 5-year periods.
