Strategy. The Fund is designed to provide equity-like returns, but with the potential to reduce volatility and drawdown ( i.e. , the risk of a decline in investment value during a decline in the U.S. equity markets) that comes with passive investment in equities. Kensington Asset Management, LLC (the Adviser) seeks to achieve the Funds investment objective by investing the Funds assets to gain exposure to (i) domestic equity securities or (ii) cash, cash equivalents, and U.S. Treasury securities based on a proprietary Dynamic Allocation Model that looks at trends in the U.S. equity market.

Kensington Asset Management, LLC (the Adviser) seeks to achieve the Funds investment objective by investing the Funds assets to gain exposure to (i) domestic equity securities or (ii) cash, cash equivalents, and U.S. Treasury securities based on a proprietary Dynamic Allocation Model that looks at trends in the U.S. equity market. The Dynamic Allocation Model uses daily price information with respect to multiple broad-based U.S. equity indices (e.g., open, close, high, and low prices) to identify and evaluate market trends and volatility to determine whether market conditions favor a Risk-On portfolio exposed to U.S. equity securities or a Risk-Off portfolio exposed to cash, cash equivalents, or U.S. Treasury securities. The Dynamic Allocation Model looks for trends developing over multiple time periods (e.g., weeks, months, or years) to signal a change from Risk-On to Risk-Off or vice versa, and the Adviser will generally turn over approximately 100% of the portfolios exposures when the Dynamic Allocation Model signals a change. Depending on market conditions, such turnover from Risk-On to Risk-Off or vice versa may take up to several days to a week, and the Fund may have significant portfolio turnover from year to year. The Adviser generally expects such changes to occur approximately eight to twelve times annually based on historic trends in the U.S. equity market. In its Risk-On position, the Fund will gain exposure to equity securities primarily by investing in one or more of the following investment types (1) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (underlying funds) that track the returns of a broad-based U.S. equity market index, (2) individual equity securities, and/or (3) equity index futures. The types of investments used to gain the Funds exposures to equity securities ( i.e. , other mutual funds and ETFs, individual equity securities, futures, etc .), and the allocation to each, is determined by several factors related to each investment type when the investment is made, including but not limited to, capacity constraints, the expected duration of the trade, fees or commissions, and the quality of beta ( i.e. , sensitivity to the securities markets) offered by the investment type. The use of futures contracts is just one option that the Fund may use and such use is determined in the same manner as the other investments. The Funds equity exposure may include companies of any market capitalization, and equity indices to which the Fund gains exposure may be based on certain factors, such as value- or growth-oriented companies. The specific equity securities in which the Fund invests or has exposure to is determined by the Advisers systematic investment approach, which takes into account several key elements, including but not limited to, the evaluation of relative value and prevailing trends between value and growth equities, along with the current and anticipated market environment. The Fund may also take short positions from time to time to hedge or offset existing long positions. In its Risk-Off position, the Fund will primarily hold cash or cash equivalents or invest directly or indirectly in underlying funds that invest in U.S. Treasury securities of various maturities. The Fund may also take short positions in the Risk-Off position to offset existing long holdings from when the Fund was in the Risk-On position. The Dynamic Allocation Model is built upon a core of trend-following logic that generates signals on a weekly basis. To avoid generating false signals directing a change to or from a Risk-On or Risk-Off state, the model also employs noise-filtering enhancements to dampen the distorting impact of short-term price aberrations that are characteristic of volatile markets. This noise filter operates by causing the model to disregard relatively large short-term changes in inputs that are not indicative of a longer-term trend. For example, the model considers short-term data that is not supported by longer-term trends as indicative of noise. The model also seeks to mitigate such noise by being run on a weekly, rather than daily basis. Additionally, the model employs certain counter-trend indicators that seek to identify when the equity market is overbought or oversold independent of whether the model anticipates a favorable or unfavorable equity market. For example, if the model determines that market conditions are favorable for equities, but equities are overbought, the model would signal a Risk-Off position. To the contrary, if the model determines that market conditions are not favorable for equities, but equities are oversold, the model would signal a Risk-On position. In selecting underlying funds, the Adviser considers the performance, relative fees, management experience, and underlying portfolio composition and strategy of such underlying funds. The Fund is non-diversified, which means it may invest a high percentage of its assets in a limited number of securities. The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers, and other financial organizations. These loans, if and when made, may not exceed 33 1/3% of the total asset value of the Fund (including the loan collateral). By lending its securities, the Fund may increase its income by receiving payments from the borrower.
