Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the Mawer U.S. Equity Fund is to provide above-average long-term, risk-adjusted returns from both capital gains and dividend income by investing primarily in equity and equity-related securities of U.S. entities. Treasury bills or short-term investments may also be used from time to time.

Investment Strategy

We employ the following strategies to achieve the Fund’s objectives: We strive for above-average long-term returns with lower than average levels of risk. We apply a highly disciplined, research driven process and long-term view to achieve this objective; Broad diversification is achieved through investments in a number of separate companies and different industry sectors; We intend to add value through prudent security selection, diversification, and emphasis upon relative security valuations.
