What this fund is
Objective, as filed

The Fund seeks a favorable long-term total return, mainly through capital appreciation, by investing primarily in a portfolio of equity securities selected to track the overall U.S. equity markets based on a market index.

Strategy, summarised

The fund invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities of the Russell 3000 Index, which comprises the largest 3,000 U.S. companies representing approximately 96% of the investable U.S. equity market, and attempts to closely match the overall investment characteristics of that index by buying most, but not necessarily all, of its constituents. Because the fund does not hold all index constituents, its returns may diverge from the index return. Fund performance will be reduced relative to the index by transaction costs and operating expenses.

Volatility over the last 12 months: 12.77%. 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.

These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 2.84pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.57pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
