Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What were the key factors that affected the fund’s performance? Focused Global Growth Fund Y Class returned 22.53% for the reporting period ended November 30, 2024. The fund seeks capital growth. The commentary below refers to the fund's performance relative to the MSCI ACWI Index. • Security selection among energy stocks contributed to relative results. The sector lagged the broader market due to low oil prices, but the fund's position in pipeline infrastructure provider The Williams Cos. contributed to performance. The fund also benefited from having no exposure to the underperforming materials sector. • Notable individual contributors during the period included chipmaker NVIDIA, a beneficiary of the artificial intelligence infrastructure build-out, and aircraft parts manufacturer Howmet Aerospace. Auto insurance carrier Progressive also contributed. • Security selection and being overweight in the underperforming real estate sector hurt relative performance. Detractors included cell tower leasing company SBA Communications and Prologis, an industrial real estate investment trust. In the financials sector, positions in B3 Brasil Bolsa Balcao and Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing hurt relative returns. • Top individual detractors from relative performance included pharmaceutical services provider ICON, semiconductor materials company Entegris and enterprise software developer Workday. | | | | | | | | |

Other notables included Carpenter Technology, a U.S.-based provider of specialty metals, and Asics, the Japan-based shoe and apparel company. • U.S.-based Modine Manufacturing, which specializes in thermal management products, and RadNet, a U.S.-based diagnostic imaging company, were among the top individual contributors, along with U.S.-based boutique investment bank Evercore. • The energy and industrials sectors were the biggest drags on relative performance. Kosmos Energy, a U.S.-based oil and gas company, was a notable detractor in oil, gas and consumable fuels. Airtac International Group, a Taiwan-based pneumatic equipment company, weighed on relative returns. • Other notable individual detractors included DoubleVerify Holdings, a digital media measurement and analytics company; Progyny, a provider of reproductive and women's health benefits; and Alphatec Holdings, which specializes in solutions for spinal disorders. | | | | | | | | |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What were the key factors that affected the fund’s performance? International Growth Fund C Class returned 10.13% for the reporting period ended November 30, 2024. The fund seeks capital growth. The commentary below refers to the fund's performance compared to the MSCI EAFE Index. • The fund's position in the industrials sector boosted relative performance. Holdings included the top individual contributor to relative returns, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, a manufacturer of electricity-generating gas turbines. In the consumer discretionary sector, the fund benefited from owning travel and hospitality-related businesses and avoiding the underperforming automobiles industry. • Amid rising investment in artificial intelligence, semiconductor companies ARM Holdings and Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. were among the top individual contributors to performance. Sportswear maker On Holding also lifted relative results. • The fund's underweight position and security selection in the financials sector weighed on relative returns. Detractors included digital payment solutions company Edenred and insurer AIA Group. Positioning in the communication services sector, most notably a stake in wireless telecommunications infrastructure and services company Cellnex Telecom, also hurt relative performance. • Notable individual detractors from relative returns included information technology consulting firm BayCurrent and Davide Campari-Milano, a producer of wine and spirits. ICON, an outsourced clinical trial and services company, and Infineon Technologies, a maker of semiconductors for the automotive and industrial sectors, also detracted. | | | | | | | | |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What were the key factors that affected the fund’s performance? International Opportunities Fund Investor Class returned 12.01% for the reporting period ended November 30, 2024. The fund seeks capital growth. The commentary below refers to the fund's performance relative to the MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. Small Cap Growth Index. • The consumer discretionary and information technology sectors were the leading drivers of relative performance. Sanrio, the Japan-based company behind Hello Kitty, was a notable contributor in specialty retail, along with Asics, the Japan-based shoe and activewear company, and Kalyan Jewellers India, a multinational jewelry business. • Other notable individual contributors included Pro Medicus, an Australia-based health care software company, and Max Healthcare Institute, an India-based health care company. • Relative performance was hurt by the consumer staples and communication services sectors. Japan-based Kotobuki Spirits, a maker of sweets, dragged on relative results in food products, as did JYP Entertainment, the South Korea-based music business, in entertainment. • FP Partner, an insurance and financial services firm headquartered in Japan, was another notable individual detractor from relative performance.

The commentary below refers to the fund's performance relative to the MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. Small Cap Growth Index. • The consumer discretionary and information technology sectors were the leading drivers of relative performance. Sanrio, the Japan-based company behind Hello Kitty, was a notable contributor in specialty retail, along with Asics, the Japan-based shoe and activewear company, and Kalyan Jewellers India, a multinational jewelry business. • Other notable individual contributors included Pro Medicus, an Australia-based health care software company, and Max Healthcare Institute, an India-based health care company. • Relative performance was hurt by the consumer staples and communication services sectors. Japan-based Kotobuki Spirits, a maker of sweets, dragged on relative results in food products, as did JYP Entertainment, the South Korea-based music business, in entertainment. • FP Partner, an insurance and financial services firm headquartered in Japan, was another notable individual detractor from relative performance. Paladin Energy, an Australia-based uranium production company, and Taiwan-based Gold Circuit Electronics, which focuses on printed circuit boards, also lagged. | | | | | | | | |

The commentary below refers to the fund's performance compared to the MSCI EAFE Small Cap Index. • The consumer discretionary sector was a leading contributor to relative performance, benefiting from results in specialty retail. A position in Sanrio, the Japan-based business behind Hello Kitty and other characters, helped. Industrials also contributed to relative performance. • Notable individual contributors included Asics, the Japan-based shoe and activewear company, and Pro Medicus, the Australia-based health care software business. Holding AtkinsRealis Group, a Canada-based engineering services and nuclear energy company, also helped. • The consumer staples sector weighed on relative performance, particularly in the food products industry.

The energy sector also detracted from relative results. • Other individual detractors included Paladin Energy, an Australia-based uranium production company, and Amvis Holdings, a Japan-based health care company. Micronics Japan, a company involved in semiconductor testing and measurement, was another detractor. | | | | | | | | |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What were the key factors that affected the fund’s performance? International Small-Mid Cap Fund G Class returned 17.12% for the reporting period ended November 30, 2024. The fund seeks capital growth. The commentary below refers to the fund's performance compared to the MSCI EAFE Small Cap Index. • The consumer discretionary sector was a leading contributor to relative performance, benefiting from results in specialty retail. A position in Sanrio, the Japan-based business behind Hello Kitty and other characters, helped. Industrials also contributed to relative performance. • Notable individual contributors included Asics, the Japan-based shoe and activewear company, and Pro Medicus, the Australia-based health care software business. Holding AtkinsRealis Group, a Canada-based engineering services and nuclear energy company, also helped. • The consumer staples sector weighed on relative performance, particularly in the food products industry. Japan-based Yamazaki Baking and Kotobuki Spirits, a Japan-based sweets maker, lagged. The energy sector also detracted from relative results. • Other individual detractors included Paladin Energy, an Australia-based uranium production company, and Amvis Holdings, a Japan-based health care company. Micronics Japan, a company involved in semiconductor testing and measurement, was another detractor. | | | | | | | | |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What were the key factors that affected the fund’s performance? International Value Fund Investor Class returned 11.57% for the reporting period ended November 30, 2024. The fund seeks long-term capital growth. The commentary below refers to the fund's performance relative to the MSCI EAFE Value Index. • Positioning in the financials sector contributed most to performance, led by holdings among insurance and bank stocks. Three of the top five individual contributors were banks, which benefited from global central bank rate cuts, improving bank lending profitability. Insurers enjoyed strong underwriting performance and profitability. • The health care sector was another source of strength, led by stock choices in the pharmaceuticals and health care equipment and supplies industries. The leading contributor in the sector was Belgium-based pharmaceutical company UCB, which reported positive clinical trial results and drug approvals. • Materials stocks were the leading detractors from performance, reflecting positioning among metals and mining, chemicals and construction materials companies. Stock choices and an overweight position in this poor-performing sector hurt relative results. These stocks lagged amid slow economic growth and poor pricing for many industrial metals. • Elsewhere, the communication services and information technology (IT) sectors underperformed. In communication services, positioning in wireless telecommunication services firms detracted most. Stock selection among semiconductors and semiconductor equipment companies was the main source of weakness in IT. | | | | | | | | |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What were the key factors that affected the fund’s performance? International Value Fund R6 Class returned 11.86% for the reporting period ended November 30, 2024. The fund seeks long-term capital growth. The commentary below refers to the fund's performance relative to the MSCI EAFE Value Index. • Positioning in the financials sector contributed most to performance, led by holdings among insurance and bank stocks. Three of the top five individual contributors were banks, which benefited from global central bank rate cuts, improving bank lending profitability. Insurers enjoyed strong underwriting performance and profitability. • The health care sector was another source of strength, led by stock choices in the pharmaceuticals and health care equipment and supplies industries. The leading contributor in the sector was Belgium-based pharmaceutical company UCB, which reported positive clinical trial results and drug approvals. • Materials stocks were the leading detractors from performance, reflecting positioning among metals and mining, chemicals and construction materials companies. Stock choices and an overweight position in this poor-performing sector hurt relative results. These stocks lagged amid slow economic growth and poor pricing for many industrial metals. • Elsewhere, the communication services and information technology (IT) sectors underperformed. In communication services, positioning in wireless telecommunication services firms detracted most. Stock selection among semiconductors and semiconductor equipment companies was the main source of weakness in IT. | | | | | | | | |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What were the key factors that affected the fund’s performance? Non-U.S. Intrinsic Value Fund Investor Class returned 7.28% for the reporting period ended November 30, 2024. The fund seeks capital appreciation. The commentary below refers to the fund's performance relative to the MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. Index. • Global equities broadly advanced during an extended bull market propelled by enthusiasm for artificial intelligence-related stocks. Many central banks cut interest rates, giving investors added confidence. Japan’s cyclical rebound and China’s weak economy made for an uneven landscape for companies trading at significant discounts to their intrinsic value. • Security selection in the information technology sector weighed on performance during the period. The portfolio is broadly underweight in the sector, so a lack of exposure to several names in the semiconductors, software and IT services industries detracted from results. A holding in SUMCO, a silicon wafer producer in Japan, detracted as it faces near-term cyclical headwinds. • Choices of investments in the industrials sector also amounted to a drag on performance. Certain holdings in the professional services and electrical equipment industries underperformed, while not owning certain names in those same industries also weighed on results. • The interaction effect was a positive contributor to performance. In particular, interaction in consumer staples helped results. Allocation in the tobacco industry helped as well. An overweight position in British American Tobacco aided performance as the U.K.-based company likely faces fewer anticipated regulatory burdens in the U.S. | | | | | | | | |

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] | What were the key factors that affected the fund’s performance? Non-U.S. Intrinsic Value Fund R Class returned 6.85% for the reporting period ended November 30, 2024. The fund seeks capital appreciation. The commentary below refers to the fund's performance relative to the MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. Index. • Global equities broadly advanced during an extended bull market propelled by enthusiasm for artificial intelligence-related stocks. Many central banks cut interest rates, giving investors added confidence. Japan’s cyclical rebound and China’s weak economy made for an uneven landscape for companies trading at significant discounts to their intrinsic value. • Security selection in the information technology sector weighed on performance during the period. The portfolio is broadly underweight in the sector, so a lack of exposure to several names in the semiconductors, software and IT services industries detracted from results. A holding in SUMCO, a silicon wafer producer in Japan, detracted as it faces near-term cyclical headwinds. • Choices of investments in the industrials sector also amounted to a drag on performance. Certain holdings in the professional services and electrical equipment industries underperformed, while not owning certain names in those same industries also weighed on results. • The interaction effect was a positive contributor to performance. In particular, interaction in consumer staples helped results. Allocation in the tobacco industry helped as well. An overweight position in British American Tobacco aided performance as the U.K.-based company likely faces fewer anticipated regulatory burdens in the U.S. | | | | | | | | |
