Investment Objectives

The primary investment objective of the US Equity Small Cap Corporate Class is to obtain maximum long-term capital growth through direct and indirect investments in equity and equity-related securities of small to mid-market capitalization US companies that the portfolio adviser believes have the potential for positive total return. This fund also may invest in other mutual funds.

Investment Strategy

The portfolio adviser uses a quantitatively driven process in which stock selection is intended to identify stocks that have a combination of attractive valuations as well as positive company fundamentals. As part of this evaluation, the portfolio adviser assesses the following attributes: • valuation of a stock as compared to its peers; • profitability of the company; and • momentum of both the company earnings and the price of the stock.
