What this fund is
Objective, as filed

The fund seeks to provide long-term growth of capital primarily through investment in equity securities. Current income is a secondary objective.

Strategy, summarised

The fund invests at least 80% of assets in equity securities of companies with market capitalizations of $1 billion or greater that exhibit value characteristics, as identified through analysis of price-to-book and price-to-earnings ratios alongside fundamental metrics such as return on equity and cash flow. The fund may hold up to 20% in foreign currency-denominated securities and up to 15% in illiquid securities, and may participate in initial public offerings. Because security selection depends on the manager's continuous assessment of value metrics and company fundamentals, fund performance will diverge from any benchmark.

Volatility over the last 12 months: 11.61%. Past returns are a record, not a forecast.

Jun 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.
