Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2025 Q3
The fund seeks to provide long-term growth of capital primarily through investment in equity securities. Current income is a secondary objective.
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.

These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 9.64pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.93pp 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.
