Strategy. The Fund is a fund-of-funds that invests in various affiliated and unaffiliated mutual funds and exchange-traded funds (Underlying Funds) to pursue its investment objective. We seek to achieve the Funds investment objective by investing at least 80% of the Funds net assets in equity securities (through investment in Underlying Funds). The Fund is a diversified equity investment that consists of Underlying Funds that employ different and complementary investment styles to provide potential for growth. These equity styles include large company, small company, and international.

The Fund is a diversified equity investment that consists of Underlying Funds that employ different and complementary investment styles to provide potential for growth. These equity styles include large company, small company, and international. The Fund will invest at least 50% and up to 70% of its assets in U.S. large company stock funds, at least 20% and up to 40% of its assets in international stock funds and up to 20% of its assets in U.S. small company stock funds. Additionally, we may invest up to 20% of the Funds net assets in bond or alternative-style asset classes (through investment in Underlying Funds). Depending on market conditions, some equity asset classes will perform better than others. The Funds broad diversification across equity styles and the use of tactical allocation between equity styles may help to reduce the overall impact of poor performance in any one equity asset class. We employ both quantitative analysis and qualitative judgments in making tactical allocations among various Underlying Funds. Quantitative analysis involves the use of proprietary asset allocation models, which employ various valuation techniques. Qualitative judgments are made based on assessments of a number of factors, including economic conditions, corporate earnings, monetary policy, market valuations, investor sentiment, and market technicals. Changes to effective allocations in the Fund may be implemented with index futures contracts or by buying and selling Underlying Funds, or both. The Fund incorporates a derivatives overlay strategy that contains three specific risk management components: 1.) Tactical Asset Allocation (TAA) Overlay, 2.) Volatility Management Overlay (VMO), and 3.) Tail Risk Management (TRM). Together these strategies will allow the Fund to attempt to manage short-term volatility, mitigate risk and/or improve returns under certain market conditions. To execute this overlay strategy, the Fund invests in long and/or short positions in exchange-traded futures contracts across a variety of asset classes, which include, but are not limited to, stocks, bonds, and currencies.
