Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2
To provide long-term growth of capital.
The fund invests at least 80% of assets in common stocks of large and medium-sized blue chip growth companies selected by a subadvisor for leading market positions, seasoned management, and above-average earnings growth relative to peers and the market. The fund may also hold up to 20% in foreign securities, up to 25% in convertible securities and debt, and up to 10% in hybrid instruments. As a non-diversified fund, it may concentrate assets in a smaller number of issuers or invest substantially in a single issuer, creating greater risk from individual security performance.

Portfolio growth profile
How much of the fund’s stock holdings are in fast-growing companies · as of 2026 Q2
Share of the fund’s equity (by value) in companies whose trailing five-year revenue — or net-income — growth ranks in the top 25% of U.S. public companies. Foreign and newly-listed holdings are excluded, so the figure covers only part of the book. From SEC filings — not investment advice. How we measure this.

Return profile
Total return as filed — price change plus distributions reinvested · trailing figures to Apr 2026
| Share class | 1-year | 3-year | 5-year | Vol | Worst fall |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| +28.23% | +101.93% | +61.42% | 19.11% | -12.39% | |
| +28.20% | +101.68% | +60.95% | 19.13% | -12.42% | |
| +27.91% | +100.35% | +59.30% | 19.12% | -12.51% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 2.12pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.42pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
May 2026 and Jun 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.
Debt profile
What this fund holds — value-weighted across its bond and securitized long positions · as of 2026-06-30
Share of the fund's debt by how its coupon behaves — the fact that decides whether a rate move reaches this portfolio at all.
| Fixed rate | 100.0% |
Share of the fund's debt value in each maturity band, shortest first.
| 3-5y | 100.0% |
Based on what filers reported; a filer that never reported a flag also reads as none.
