Thornburg Global Equity Ex-U.S. Fund Objective
Thornburg Global
Equity Ex-U.S. Fund
30 SEPTEMBER 2014
Investment Policy
Objective
Under normal circumstances the
fund will invest at least 90% of its
assets in equity securities of issuers
domiciled outside the United States.
The portfolio is diversified to include
basic value stocks, but also includes
stocks of companies with consistent
earnings characteristics and those
of emerging franchises, when these
issues are value priced.
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing in equity and debt securities of
all types. The secondary, non-fundamental goal of the Fund is to seek some current income.
There is no guarantee that the Fund will meet its objectives.
Key Points
■■
The team is focused on identifying promising companies selling at a discount to intrinsic
value via disciplined, bottom-up, fundamental research.
■■
The portfolio is typically more focused than many peers.

Performance data shown represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal
value will fluctuate so shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may
be lower or higher than quoted. For performance current to the most recent month end, visit http://www.thornburgglobal.com

*Due to the limited amount of time since the UCITS Fund inception, the US Fund, regulated by the Investment Company Act of
1940, performance is shown. This information is considered relevant because the UCITS Fund is structured similarly to the US
Fund. There can be no assurance that the UCITS Fund would have achieved similar rates of returns over the same time frame.

Net total return (NTR) indexes reinvest dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes, using (for international indexes) a tax rate
applicable to non-resident institutional investors who do not benefit from double taxation treaties.
Gross total return (GTR) indexes reinvest as much as possible of a company’s dividend distributions. The reinvested amount is equal
to the total dividend amount distributed to persons residing in the country of the dividend-paying company. Gross total return indexes
do not, however, include any tax credits.
