Products and Services

• Investment in Mid-Capitalization Companies

  This service involves the allocation of the fund's resources towards acquiring securities from companies considered to have medium market capitalization. It operates under the guiding principle that these companies offer a balanced risk-reward ratio, potentially providing substantial returns while mitigating the volatility often associated with smaller cap investments. The fund utilizes a strategic approach to select firms within the capitalization range of the Russell Midcap® Index, aiming to benefit from the growth potential of these entities.

• Borrowing for Investment Purposes

  In addition to directly investing in mid-cap securities, the fund may also engage in borrowing to bolster its investment capacity. This tactic is employed to leverage additional capital, aiming to amplify the return on investments through strategic financial management. It illustrates the fund’s proactive approach to asset allocation and its readiness to employ leverage in pursuit of maximizing shareholder value. However, it also reflects a higher risk strategy, as borrowing increases the total amount of capital at risk.
