As a fundamental policy, the Global Financial Services Fund concentrates (invests at least 25% of the value of its net assets) in the securities of companies principally engaged in the group of industries comprising the financial services sector. The Global Financial Services Fund may invest in the equity securities of such companies, such as common stock, or in the debt securities of such companies, such as corporate bonds or other financial instruments, in accordance with the foregoing 80% policy. The Global Financial Services Fund may invest in companies without regard to market capitalization and may invest in issuers in foreign countries, including countries with developed or emerging markets. As a global fund, the Global Financial Services Fund invests in securities of issuers, or related investments thereof, located in at least three countries, and at least 40% of the Funds total net assets will be invested in securities of non-U.S. issuers or related investments thereof. The Global Financial Services Fund is a non-diversified mutual fund. The Global Financial Services Fund considers a company to be principally engaged in the group of industries comprising the financial services sector if it devotes a significant portion of its assets to, or derives a significant portion of its revenues from, providing financial services. Such services include but are not limited to the following: commercial, consumer, and specialized banking and financing; asset management; publicly-traded, government sponsored financial enterprises; insurance; accountancy; mortgage REITs; brokerage; securities exchanges and electronic trading platforms; financial data, technology, and analysis; and financial transaction and other financial processing services. The 1940 Act restricts the Global Financial Services Fund from acquiring the securities of any company that derives more than 15% of its gross revenues from securities related activities, such as a broker, dealer, underwriter or a federally registered investment adviser (a Securities Related Issuer), subject to exception. Under Rule 12d3-1 under the 1940 Act, however, the Global Financial Services Fund may generally purchase up to 5% of any class of equity securities of a Securities Related Issuer, or up to 10% of the outstanding principal amount of debt securities of a Securities Related Issuer, so long as, in each case, no more than 5% of the Global Financial Services Funds total assets are invested in the Securities Related Issuer. These limitations are measured at the time of investment. Rule 12d3-1 may operate to limit the size of the Global Financial Services Funds investment position with respect to one or more Securities Related Issuers. The 1940 Act also restricts the Global Financial Services Fund from acquiring any security issued by an insurance company if the Global Financial Services Fund owns, or will own as a result of the acquisition, more than 10% of the total outstanding voting stock of the insurance company. The 1940 Act may operate to limit the size of the Global Financial Services Funds investment position with respect to one or more insurance companies. The Advisers investment philosophy with respect to buying and selling equity securities is to identify assets that are selling in the public market at a discount to their private market value (PMV). The Adviser defines PMV as the value informed purchasers are willing to pay to acquire assets with similar characteristics. The Adviser considers factors such as price, earnings expectations, earnings and price histories, balance sheet characteristics, and perceived management skills. The Adviser also considers changes in economic and political outlooks as well as individual corporate developments. Further, the Adviser looks for a catalyst, something indigenous to the company, its industry or geographic positioning that may surface additional value, including, but not limited to, industry developments, regulatory changes, changes in management, sale or spin-off of a division, or the development of a profitable new business. The Adviser expects to seek to sell any Global Financial Services Fund investments that lose their perceived value relative to other investments, which could occur because of, among other things, a security reaching a predetermined price target, a change to a companys fundamentals that make the risk/reward profile unattractive, or a need to improve the overall risk/reward profile of the Global Financial Services Fund. The Global Financial Services Fund may invest in non-U.S. equity securities through depositary receipts, including American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), European Depositary Receipts (EDRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) and other similar global instruments, which are generally subject to risks associated with equity securities and investments in foreign (non-U.S.) securities. ADRs are receipts issued by U.S. banks or trust companies in respect of securities of foreign issuers held on deposit for use in the U.S. securities markets. EDRs, which are sometimes referred to as Continental Depositary Receipts, are receipts issued in Europe, typically by non-U.S. banks and trust companies, that evidence ownership of either non-U.S. or domestic underlying securities. GDRs are depositary receipts structured like global debt issues to facilitate trading on an international basis. ADRs are usually denominated in U.S. dollars and dividends and other payments from the issuer are converted by the custodian into U.S. dollars before payment to receipt holders. In most other respects, ADRs, EDRs and GDRs for foreign securities have the same characteristics as the underlying securities. Show less
