Overview
Investment Strategy
The goal of the Fund is to provide investors access to attractive investment opportunities that exist outside of the United States, in both developed and developing markets.
The Fund applies our signature Davis Investment Discipline to seek durable, well-managed businesses at value prices and holding them for the long term.
Investing solely in U.S. stock funds may mean missing the tremendous growth opportunities and diversification potential that international companies provide.
"By being highly selective and rejecting the vast majority of companies in the index, we’ve uncovered businesses with highly attractive earnings growth, yet selling at some of the lowest valuations we have ever seen. We believe this sets the stage for attractive returns in the years ahead."
– Portfolio Manager Chris Davis
Selective | Attractive Growth | Undervalued |
---|---|---|
International Fund invests in only a select group of well-researched companies |
International Fund's portfolio companies have grown more than the companies in the index The Attractive Growth and Undervalued reference in this piece relates to underlying characteristics of the portfolio holdings. There is no guarantee that the Fund’s performance will be positive as equity markets are volatile and an investor may lose money. |
International Fund's portfolio companies are 46% less expensive than the index |

2023 Distributions as of 01/08/24
This information on 2023 distributions is intended for existing shareholders
As large shareholders ourselves, we are conscious of tax costs and make every effort to be tax efficient.
Capital gains result from appreciation in the portfolio. The funds' long-term investment approach means that this appreciation may have occurred over an extended period of time. The majority of the gains are long-term and generally subject to lower tax rates than short-term gains or dividend income.

The table above includes the percentage of 2023 dividend and net short-term capital gain distributions, by fund, that are eligible for reduced tax rates as "qualified dividend income" (QDI). QDI-eligible amounts, including any net short-term capital gains, are reported to shareholders in Box 1b of Form 1099-DIV. For those shareholders who do not receive a Form 1099-DIV, QDI-eligible amounts can be determined by applying the relevant percentages from the table to the dividend and net short-term capital gain distributions shown on the shareholder's 2023 year-end account statement. Individual questions should be referred to your tax advisor.
