Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q1

The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks. It may also hold fixed income and other securities to help preserve principal value.

Strategy · summarised

The fund invests primarily in common stocks selected through a value approach, seeking companies trading at low valuations relative to assets or earnings that the adviser's research identifies as undervalued and likely to appreciate. The adviser also holds corporate and government debt, convertible securities, and bank loans—including up to 30% in below-investment-grade bonds—and may allocate up to 25% to foreign securities. The adviser may establish large positions in particularly attractive companies and will concentrate holdings in specific economic sectors. Because the fund's stock and bond allocations result from case-by-case investment decisions rather than a preset target, and because the adviser may hold significant cash when suitable opportunities are scarce, portfolio composition can vary materially.

The outer band is exposure held short — written against the portfolio rather than part of it, which is why it sits outside the ring and why the two are never netted into one figure.

Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.

Cumulative return· Apr 2023 – Feb 2026

Mar 2026 has been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so it is not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.

Risk profile

Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q1

Most of this fund’s sensitivity is to interest rates, with credit spreads carrying about half as much.

Interest-rate duration
1.11 yr
approx. move per 100bp
Credit-spread duration
0.63 yr
approx. move per 100bp
If rates and spreads both rise 100bp

Where the loss would come from. The two shocks are the same size, so this is the balance of the fund's two sensitivities rather than a bet on one moving more.

of value
Interest rates64%
Credit spreads36%

Filers report the impact of a 0.01% move only, so the total is our own scaling of that one number and overstates the loss on most bonds — read it as approximate, never as precise. The two sensitivities overlap rather than add up: they measure the same positions against different shocks, which is why the durations above are shown side by side and never summed.

Where the risk sits on the curve

Share of duration at each point, shortest first. This filer signs its rate and credit disclosures differently; the direction shown follows its interest-rate filing, and a negative reading is the least-supported figure here.

The two bands measure the same positions against different shocks and do not add — a Treasury carries rate duration and no spread duration, a floating-rate credit the reverse. Rate tenors are also summed across every currency the fund discloses.
