What this fund is
Objective, as filed

Alger Focus Equity Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

Strategy, summarised

The fund invests at least 80% of assets in equity securities of companies the manager believes exhibit Positive Dynamic Change, either through High Unit Volume Growth or Positive Lifecycle Change such as new regulations, product innovation, or management. The fund typically holds approximately 50 stocks and may concentrate a significant portion of assets in a single sector. As a non-diversified fund, the performance of any one position may have a greater impact on overall fund performance. The fund may also hold privately placed securities and foreign equities, and may temporarily hold up to 15% in cash when attractive investments are unavailable or during market volatility.

Volatility over the last 12 months: 23.71%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.

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

The 5 share classes hold the same portfolio

These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 7.36pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.47pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
