Investment objective & strategy

As of April 28, 2025 · prospectus

Objective. The investment objective of the Mid Cap Value Fund (the Fund) is to seek to achieve growth of capital.

Strategy. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of mid-cap companies. For purposes of this policy, mid capitalization companies have market capitalizations that fall within the market capitalization range of companies in the Russell Midcap Index at the time of purchase (as of March 31, 2025, and as provided by the Sub-Adviser, this range was between $166 million and $84.7 billion). Because the Funds definition of mid-cap companies is dynamic, the lower and upper limits on market capitalization will change with the markets. In selecting individual securities, the Sub-Adviser uses bottom-up, fundamental research to identify high quality companies that are trading at a … Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of mid-cap companies. For purposes of this policy, mid capitalization companies have market capitalizations that fall within the market capitalization range of companies in the Russell Midcap Index at the time of purchase (as of March 31, 2025, and as provided by the Sub-Adviser, this range was between $166 million and $84.7 billion). Because the Funds definition of mid-cap companies is dynamic, the lower and upper limits on market capitalization will change with the markets. In selecting individual securities, the Sub-Adviser uses bottom-up, fundamental research to identify high quality companies that are trading at a substantial discount to their intrinsic value, defined as the Sub-Advisers estimate of a companys true long-term economic worth, where there is a strategic plan or event that is expected to both enhance value and narrow the value/price gap. Intrinsic value reflects the Sub-Advisers analysis and estimates. There is no guarantee that any intrinsic value will be realized; security prices may decrease regardless of intrinsic values. Applying a consistent, private equity-style investment framework, the Sub-Adviser focuses its research efforts on a companys long-term outlook and strategic catalysts that can potentially unlock value. Their approach emphasizes asset values and cash flows, directly engaging a companys management team to evaluate its strategic direction, execution abilities and direct incentive compensation. The Sub-Adviser will consider reducing or eliminating a position when the gap between its price and its intrinsic value has narrowed or been eliminated or when other opportunities appear more attractive. Changes in management or corporate strategy, or the failure of a company to perform as expected, may also result in the reduction or elimination of a position. The Sub-Adviser does not have an automatic sell decision when a holding increases to a certain market capitalization level or based on underperformance. They would continue to hold a stock if they believed that it could ultimately contribute to performance. While the Funds sector and industry exposure is expected to vary over time, as of February 28, 2025, the Fund had significant exposure to the Financials Sector and Industrials Sector, as each sector is defined by the Global Industry Classification Standard.
