Products and Services

• Equity Investments in Small/Medium Capitalization Companies

This is the core offering of the fund, involving the purchase of stocks from companies within the small to medium size range. The selection criteria focus on entities that are believed to be undervalued by the market or have not garnered the attention they deserve. This strategic investment stance aims to capitalize on growth opportunities and price adjustments as these companies progress towards their true market valuation.

• Investments in Non-U.S. Securities

Expanding its portfolio beyond domestic borders, the fund allocates up to 10% of its total assets in non-U.S. securities. This includes both stocks listed on foreign exchanges and those available in the U.S. but issued by companies based outside the United States. Such investments present a pathway to diversification, allowing investors to benefit from the growth potential in international markets and thus potentially improving the overall risk-return profile of the fund.
