Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks to provide above average total return by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. corporations. Any proposed change to the investment objectives of the Fund must be approved by a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of the Fund’s investors called for that purpose.

Investment Strategy

The Fund focuses on large companies whose stocks are priced below their long-term potential, and where there may be a catalyst for positive change. The strategy combines quantitative tools with rigorous fundamental investment research to find opportunities and manage risk. While security holdings will predominantly be U.S. corporations, the Fund may invest up to 15% of its assets in non-U.S. equity securities.
