MFSI

The fund's investment objective is to seek capital appreciation. The fund's assets primarily in foreign securities, including emerging market securities. In selecting investments for the fund, MFS is not constrained by any particular investment style. MFS may invest the fund's assets in the stocks of companies it believes to have above average earnings growth potential compared to other companies (growth companies), in the stocks of companies it believes are undervalued compared to their perceived worth (value companies), or in a combination of growth and value companies. MFS may invest the fund's assets in securities of companies of any size. MFS normally invests the fund's assets across different industries, sectors, countries, and regions, but MFS may invest a significant percentage of the fund's assets in issuers in a single industry, sector, country, or region. MFS uses an active bottom-up investment approach to buying and selling investments for the fund. Investments are selected primarily based on fundamental analysis of individual issuers. In managing the fund, MFS also utilizes quantitative models to assist the portfolio management team in the portfolio construction and security selection process.
