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 may use techniques such as fundamental analysis to assess the value and growth potential of a company. This means evaluating the financial condition and management of a company, its industry and the overall economy. As part of this evaluation, the portfolio adviser: analyzes financial data and other information sources; assesses the quality of management; conducts company interviews, where possible.
