International Opportunities ADR

Strategy highlights
  • Portfolio differentiation: Fundamental bottom-up stock selection seeks to enhance active share and provide consistent alpha due to differentiated holdings in lesser traveled international markets
  • Downside protection: Shifts in market share or new addressable structural growth markets offer an added layer of downside protection from macroeconomic factors that can disproportionately impact certain sectors or regions
  • Early discovery: Early identification often precedes sell side research coverage, which can provide the team a competitive advantage

Strategy description

International Opportunities ADR invests in companies outside the U.S. that are in the early stages of structural growth driven by differentiated products or services and are supported by trends that are independent from broader macroeconomic factors. Timing is critical, and through early identification the team is able to construct a differentiated portfolio of lesser-known securities that are poised to benefit from long term structural changes in their particular market.

Investment process

Bottom-up, fundamental research seeks to identify growth securities that are early cycle market disruptors. Positive structural change, sustainability of change, and attention to timing are key elements driving security selection. Shifts in market share or new addressable structural growth markets offer an added layer of downside protection from macroeconomic factors that can disproportionately impact certain sectors or regions.

Literature and resources

A separately managed account (SMA) is a private portfolio of actively managed, individual securities that may be customized to achieve an individual investor's unique objectives.

SMA accounts typically require a minimum investment of $100,000 for equity and asset allocation strategies and $350,000 for fixed income strategies, although the specific minimum account size varies by program and may be subject to change. The manager may waive these minimums based on client type, asset class, pre-existing relationship with client and other factors. For certain accounts, a negotiated minimum annual fee applies. Please consult with your Nuveen Advisor Consultant for applicable minimums.

Important information on risk

All investments carry a certain degree of risk, including possible loss of principal, and there is no assurance that an investment will provide positive performance over any period of time. Equity investments are subject to market risk or the risk that stocks will decline in response to such factors as adverse company news or industry developments or a general economic decline. Investment in non-U.S. stocks presents risks such as political risk, exchange rate risk, lack of liquidity and inflationary risk, economic change, social unrest, changes in government relations, and different accounting standards. These additional risks may be heightened for securities of issuers located in, or with significant operations in, emerging market countries as such countries may have a higher degree of economic instability, unsettled securities laws and inconsistent regulatory systems. This strategy may invest in American Depositary Receipts (ADRs). ADRs do not eliminate the currency and economic risks for the underlying shares in another country. In addition, growth stocks or growth investing may fall out of favor and underperform value stocks and other investing styles over any period of time. Certain sectors or growth stocks may shift characteristics over a long market cycle and may not perform in line with stated benchmarks.
