This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy, hold and sell shares of the Fund. You may pay other fees, such as brokerage commissions and other fees to financial intermediaries, which are not reflected in the table and Example below. Additional fees and expenses will be applied at the variable contract level. Those fees and expenses are described in your variable contract prospectus. If the information below were to reflect the deduction of variable contract charges, fees and expenses would be higher.

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs. These costs, which are not reflected in the annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund’s performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 76% of the average value of its portfolio.

This example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The example does not reflect expenses and charges which are, or may be, imposed under your variable contract. If the examples were to reflect the deduction of such charges, the costs shown would be greater. The example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem or hold all of your shares at the end of those periods. The example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. Although your actual costs and returns might be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities, such as common stocks, preferred stocks, convertible bonds, and warrants. The Fund will invest primarily in companies operating in the countries in Europe and the Pacific Basin.

The countries include the eleven Euro-zone countries (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Finland, Ireland, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg and Austria), the United Kingdom, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, Norway, Japan, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore. The Sub‑Adviser employs bottom‑up stock and business analysis to identify high-quality growth companies. Typically, these companies tend to be well managed with the following attributes: consistent operating histories and financial performance; favorable long-term economic prospects; free cash flow generation; and competent management that can be counted on to use cash flow wisely, and channel the reward from the business back to its shareholders. The Sub‑Adviser’s goal is to construct a portfolio of high-quality growth companies in the developed markets of Europe and the Pacific

Basin. With approximately 30‑60 stocks, the Fund seeks to be well diversified and will have investments in at least 10 countries and 5 sectors at all times. While the Fund’s sector and industry exposure is expected to vary over time, as of February 28, 2022, the Fund had significant exposure to the Consumer Staples Sector, Health Care Sector, Industrials Sector, and Information Technology Sector, as each sector is defined by the Global Industry Classification Standard.

The Fund may invest in securities of companies in emerging and developing markets. The Fund may, but is not required to, undertake hedging activities and may invest in certain instruments, such as forward currency exchange contracts, and may use certain techniques to hedge currency risks associated with the purchase of individual securities denominated in a foreign currency.

Principal Risks of Investing

Risk Narrative [Text Block]

rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock

As with all mutual funds, an investor is subject to the risk that his or her investment could lose money. In addition to this risk, the Fund is subject to the principal risks described below.

Equity Securities Risk. In general, prices of equity securities are more volatile than those of fixed income securities. The prices of equity securities fluctuate, and sometimes widely fluctuate, in response to activities specific to the issuer of the security as well as factors unrelated to the fundamental condition of the issuer, including general market, economic and political conditions.

Foreign Investment Risk. The possibility that the Fund’s investments in foreign securities may be adversely affected by political, social, and economic conditions affecting foreign issuers or decreases in foreign currency values relative to the U.S. dollar. Investments in foreign markets may be subject to greater market volatility, decreased market liquidity, and higher transaction and custody costs. Foreign issuers also may be subject to less government and exchange regulation and there may be less reliable financial information available for such issuers and their securities.

Emerging Markets Risk. The possibility that the stocks of companies located in emerging markets may be more volatile, and less liquid, than the stocks of companies located in the U.S. and developed foreign markets due to political, economic, or regulatory conditions within emerging market countries. In addition, emerging market countries may experience more volatile interest and currency exchange rates, higher levels of inflation and less efficient trading and settlement systems.

Liquidity Risk. The possibility that the market for certain of the Fund’s investments may become illiquid under adverse or volatile market or economic conditions, making those investments difficult to sell at an advantageous price, particularly in times of market turmoil. The market price of certain investments may fall dramatically if there is no liquid trading market for the investments. Illiquid securities may also be more difficult to value. If the Fund is forced to sell an illiquid security to fund redemptions or for other cash needs, it may be forced to sell the security at a loss.

Sector Risk. The possibility that the Fund may invest a substantial portion of its assets within one or more economic sectors or industries, which may change from time to time. At times, the Fund may have a significant portion of its assets invested in securities of companies conducting business in a broadly related group of industries within an economic sector. Companies in the same economic sector may be similarly affected by economic or market events, making the Fund more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that economic sector, including adverse market conditions, legislative or regulatory changes, and/or increased competition affecting that sector, than funds that invest more broadly. While the Fund’s sector and industry exposure is expected to vary over time, as of February 28, 2022, the Fund had significant exposure to the Industrials Sector, Information Technology Sector, Consumer Staples Sector, and Health Care Sector. In addition to these general risks, the sectors specified are also subject to the risks described below.

Industrials Sector Risk. The Industrials Sector includes manufacturers and distributors of capital goods such as aerospace and defense, building projects, electrical equipment and machinery and companies that offer construction and engineering services. It also includes providers of commercial and professional services including printing, environmental and facilities services, office services and supplies, security and

alarm services, human resource and employment services, research and consulting services. It also includes companies that provide transportation services. The prices of the securities of companies operating in the Industrials Sector may fluctuate due to the level and volatility of commodity prices, the exchange value of the dollar, import controls, worldwide competition, liability for environmental damage, depletion of resources, and mandated expenditures for safety and pollution control devices.

Information Technology Sector Risk. The Information Technology Sector includes companies that offer software and information technology services, manufacturers and distributors of technology hardware and equipment such as communications equipment, cellular phones, computers and peripherals, electronic equipment and related instruments and semiconductors. The prices of the securities of companies operating in the Information Technology Sector are closely tied to market competition, increased sensitivity to short product cycles and aggressive pricing, and problems with bringing products to market.

Consumer Staples Sector Risk. The Consumer Staples Sector includes manufacturers and distributors of food, beverages and tobacco and producers of non‑durable household goods and personal products. It also includes food and drug retailing companies as well as hypermarkets and consumer super centers. The performance of companies operating in the Consumer Staples Sector has historically been closely tied to the performance of the overall economy, and also is affected by consumer confidence, demands and preferences, and spending. In addition, companies in the Consumer Staples Sector may be subject to risks pertaining to the supply of, demand for, and prices of raw materials.

Health Care Sector Risk. The Health Care Sector includes health care providers and services, companies that manufacture and distribute health care equipment and supplies, and health care technology companies. It also includes companies involved in the research, development, production and marketing of pharmaceuticals and biotechnology products. The prices of the securities of companies operating in the Health Care Sector are closely tied to government regulation and approval of their products and services, which can have a significant effect on the price and availability of those products and services.

Market Risk. The possibility that the values of, and/or the income generated by, securities held by the Fund may decline, sometimes unpredictably, due to general market conditions or other factors, including those directly involving the issuers of such securities. Security markets are volatile and may decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, regulatory, political, or economic developments. Different sectors of the market and different security types may react differently to such developments.

Currency Risk. The possibility that the value of the Fund’s assets may be affected favorably or unfavorably by currency exchange rates, currency exchange control regulations, and restrictions or prohibitions on the repatriation of foreign currencies.

Management Risk. The possibility that the investment decisions, techniques, analyses or models implemented by the Fund’s Sub‑Adviser in seeking to achieve the Fund’s investment objective may not produce the returns expected, may cause the Fund’s shares to lose value or may cause the Fund to underperform relevant benchmarks or other funds with similar investment objectives.

Warrants Risk. The possibility that the Fund’s investments in warrants are subject to greater price volatility than the warrants’ underlying securities. Warrants offer greater potential for profit or loss than an equivalent investment in the underlying security. A warrant generally ceases to have value if it is not exercised prior to its expiration date.

Preferred Stock Risk. The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments in preferred stock may decline if stock prices fall or interest rates rise. In the event of a liquidation, the rights of a company’s preferred stock to the distribution of company assets are generally subordinate to the rights of a company’s debt securities.

Convertible Securities Risk. The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments in convertible securities may be adversely affected by changes in interest rates, the credit of the issuer and the value of the underlying common stock. The market values of convertible securities tend to decline as interest rates increase and,

conversely, to increase as interest rates decline. In addition, as the market price of the underlying common stock declines below the conversion price, the price of the convertible security tends to be increasingly influenced by the yield of the convertible security.

Derivatives Risk. The possibility that the Fund’s use of derivatives, such as futures, options and swap agreements, may lead to losses, including those magnified by leverage, particularly when derivatives are used to enhance return rather than mitigate risk. Certain derivative instruments may be difficult to sell when the Sub‑Adviser believes it would be appropriate to do so, difficult to value if the instrument becomes illiquid, or the other party to a derivative contract may be unwilling or unable to fulfill its contractual obligations.

An investment in the Fund may be appropriate for investors who are willing to accept the risks and uncertainties of international investing in the hope of realizing capital appreciation while diversifying their investment portfolio.
