Overview

The fund operates with a focused investment strategy, concentrating on the acquisition of common stocks from companies considered to be in the small- to mid-size category. This is principally defined by their market capitalization, which is bound by a dynamic ceiling – the lesser of the maximum market cap in the Russell 2500® Value Index or $12 billion, at the time the investment is made. To achieve its investment objectives, the fund is willing to leverage its assets, employing borrowing as a means to potentially enhance the returns on its equity investments. This targeted approach towards small- and mid-sized enterprises is crafted to exploit the unique growth potential and market dynamics of this segment.
