The Fidelity International Discovery Fund (FIGRX) is an actively managed fund that seeks to grow investor capital over the long term. FIGRX uses fundamental screens to find stocks that have above-average growth projections, competitive advantages, and that deliver strong operational results. The fund focuses these screens on the MSCI EAFE Index, which is a measure of developed-market international stocks.
FIGRX’s low costs and actively managed tilt with regards to international stocks makes it a great subcore choice when paired with a broader international equity holding. The fund is internally managed by Fidelity.
