Investment Strategy

The fund seeks to achieve its objective by using a multi-discipline active asset allocation investment approach. The adviser executes its global securities allocation strategy by allocating assets across one or more sectors of the global securities markets. Normally, the fund invests a majority of its assets in equity securities or ETFs that invest primarily in equity securities; however, it may invest in fixed income securities or in ETFs that invest primarily in such securities.
