Non-US Equity

Cardinal Capital’s Non-U.S. Equity Composite is constructed using the same value oriented methodology as Cardinal’s U.S. Large Cap Core Composite. Returns are measured against the MSCI EAFE Index and the managers that benchmark against it. Risk is measured by beta or standard deviation of return versus those of the MSCI EAFE Index.  Geographically Cardinal’s Non-U.S. Equity Composite allows for up to 20% non-EAFE country exposure.

The price earnings ratio of the portfolio was 17.6 versus the MSCI EAFE Index’s P/E of 17. The beta on the portfolio was 0.65 versus the MSCI EAFE Index’s beta defined as 1.0.
