The Fund may invest in a smaller number of holdings. The sub-adviser utilizes a bottom-up investment approach for selecting investments for the Fund, using a rigorous, fundamental research analysis of individual issuers. During portfolio construction, the portfolio management team takes into consideration their general outlook on real estate markets and the impact any proposed investment would have on portfolio risk. The weights to different types of properties are primarily the result of bottom-up stock analysis but are also influenced by the teams top-down views. The sub-adviser may sell a holding due to a change in a companys fundamentals, if the sub-adviser believes the security is no longer attractively valued or if the sub-adviser identifies a security that it believes offers a better investment opportunity. The Fund is classified as non-diversified, which means it may invest in a smaller number of issuers than a diversified fund.
