Strategy Narrative [Text Block]	Under normal market conditions, the Portfolio invests primarily in equity securities of issuers located throughout the world that it believes have, among other things, sustainable competitive advantages, capable management and financial strength. The Portfolio typically invests in issuers of equity securities with a market capitalization greater than $2 billion. The sub-adviser and the sub-sub-adviser (together, the “Sub-Adviser”) emphasize individual stock selection and seeks to identify high quality companies located throughout the world, including both developed and emerging market countries. Under normal market conditions, the Portfolio invests in securities of issuers from a number of different countries, including the U.S. As an integrated part of the investment process, the Sub-Adviser assesses relevant factors material to long-term sustainably high returns on operating capital including environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors and seeks to engage with companies as part of this. Subject to the Portfolio’s investment objective the Sub-Adviser retains discretion over which investments are selected. In exercising this discretion, ESG factors are not the sole determinant of whether an investment can be made or a holding can remain in the Portfolio’s portfolio, but instead the Sub-Adviser considers material risks or opportunities in any of the ESG areas which could threaten or enhance high returns on operating capital of a company. The Portfolio may also invest in derivatives for hedging currency and other risks for potential gains. Such derivatives may include forward foreign currency exchange contracts, futures contracts, options, swaps, and structured notes. The Portfolio is non-diversified, which means that it may invest a significant portion of its assets in a single issuer. The Portfolio may invest in real estate-related securities, including real estate investment trusts (“REITs”). The Portfolio may also invest in other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, and under the terms of applicable no-action relief or exemptive orders granted thereunder. The Sub-Adviser seeks to invest in companies that it believes have resilient business franchises, strong cash flows, modest capital requirements, balance sheet strength, capable management, and that typically return cash to shareholders. The franchise focus of the Portfolio is based on the Sub-Adviser's belief that the company’s intangible assets underlying a strong business franchise (such as brands and networks) are difficult to create or to replicate and that carefully selected franchise companies can yield above-average potential for long-term capital appreciation. The Sub-Adviser relies on its research capabilities, analytical resources, and judgment to identify and monitor franchise businesses meeting its investment criteria. The Sub-Adviser believes that the number of issuers with strong business franchises meeting its criteria may be limited, and accordingly, the Portfolio may concentrate its holdings in a relatively small number of companies and may invest up to 25% of the Portfolio's total assets in a single issuer. The Sub-Adviser generally considers selling a portfolio holding when it determines that the holding no longer satisfies its investment criteria or that replacing the holding with another investment should improve the Portfolio's valuation and/or quality. The Sub-Adviser may sell securities for a variety of reasons, such as to secure gains, limit losses, or redeploy assets into opportunities believed to be more promising. The Portfolio may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, up to 33 1∕3% of its total assets.
