The fund offers Class A shares with a minimum initial investment of $250, an expense ratio of 0.83% (including 0.42% management fees, 0.24% 12b-1 fees, and 0.17% other expenses), semi-annual dividends and capital gains distributions in June and December, and a portfolio turnover rate of 35% as of 2025; its portfolio as of November 30, 2025, comprises over 333 issuers with net assets exceeding $134.8 billion across 847,389 shareholder accounts, emphasizing large-cap growth stocks in sectors such as financials (20.0%), industrials (17.4%), information technology (16.1%), consumer discretionary (10.7%), materials (8.7%), and health care (8.1%), with regional allocations heavily weighted toward Europe & Middle East (49.4%-50.9%), emerging markets ex-China (18.2%-18.8%), Japan (12.1%-12.5%), Canada (6.6%-6.8%), China (5.1%-5.3%), and minimal U.S. equities (3.7%-3.8%). Launched on April 16, 1984, and headquartered in Los Angeles, California, as part of the American Funds family under Capital Group, the fund targets growth-oriented individual and institutional investors seeking international large-cap growth exposure outside the U.S., benchmarked against the MSCI All Country World Index ex USA (with an active share of 58.9%, beta of 1.04, and Sharpe ratio of 0.40 over 10 years ending November 30, 2025).
