Overview
The Harbor Global Growth Fund is subadvised by Marsico Capital Management, LLC . The portfolio manager's strategy for the Fund is to select and invest in securities of U.S. and foreign companies of any size that have long-term growth potential. At any one time, the Fund is invested in at least three different countries.

When selecting investments, the portfolio manager uses an approach that combines top-down macro-economic analysis and bottom-up stock selection. The analysis takes into consideration:

  • Interest rates
  • Inflation
  • Demographics
  • The regulatory environment
  • Global competitive landscape and investment opportunities
  • Industry consolidation
  • The sustainability of financial trends

Once certain sectors and industries have been identified, the portfolio manager looks for companies or securities within those areas that have earnings growth potential. Some of the factors considered for suitable investment include market expertise or dominance, franchise durability, solid business fundamentals, strong and ethical management and a commitment to shareholder interests.

Performance data shown represents past performance, which is no guarantee of future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the past performance data shown. Investment returns and the value of an investment will fluctuate, and an investor's shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. You can obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end (available within seven business days after the most recent month-end) by calling 800-422-1050 or visiting www.harborfunds.com.

The Harbor Funds performance shown assumes the reinvestment of dividend and capital gain distributions and is net of management fees and expenses. Returns for periods less than one year are not annualized.

From time to time, certain fees and/or expenses have been voluntarily waived, which has resulted in higher returns. Without these waivers, the returns would have been lower. Voluntary waivers may be applied or discontinued at any time without notice.

The MSCI AC (All Country) World Index is a free float-adjusted market capitalization weighted index that is designed to measure the equity market performance of developed and emerging markets. This unmanaged index does not reflect fees and expenses and is not available for direct investment.

Expense ratios are expressed as an annualized percentage of a fund's average net assets paid out in expenses. Net expense ratios reflect adjustments due to voluntary or contractual fee waivers or expense reimbursements. Expense ratio information is as of the Fund's current prospectus, as revised and supplemented from time to time.
