ATIMX Investment Objective and Strategy
AQR TM International Momentum Style Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by AQR Funds.
Investment objective
The AQR TM International Momentum Style Fund (the “Fund”) seeks long-term after-tax capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund pursues a momentum investment style by investing primarily in equity or equity-related securities (including, but not limited to, exchange-traded funds, equity index futures, equity index swaps and depositary receipts) of non-U.S. companies that the Adviser determines to have positive momentum. The Adviser considers a security to have positive momentum primarily if it has outperformed other securities on a relative basis over a recent time period. Relative performance may be based on price momentum, earnings momentum, or other types of momentum, and will generally be measured over time periods ranging from one to twelve months. The criteria the Adviser uses for determining positive momentum may change from time to time. The TM in the Funds name reflects that the Fund employs a tax management strategy which considers the potential impact of federal income tax on shareholders investment return.
The Fund will generally invest in developed markets outside the U.S. As of the date of this prospectus, the Adviser considers developed markets outside of the U.S. to be those countries that are included in the MSCI World ex-U.S. Index at the time of purchase. Although the Fund does not limit its investments to any one country, the Fund may invest in any one country without limit. The Adviser determines the weight of each security in the portfolio using a combination of the market capitalization of the security and the Advisers determination of the attractiveness of the security based on the Advisers assessment of the securitys momentum and additional criteria that form part of the Advisers security selection process. When selecting securities for the portfolio, the Adviser also employs a tax management strategy which considers the potential impact of federal income tax on shareholders investment return.
This tax management strategy is generally designed so investors receive lower distributions of realized capital gains than funds that do not take tax consequences into account. Investors should not expect that there will be no capital gain distributions, however, as the Fund will balance investment considerations with tax consequences in making investment decisions. The techniques and strategies that may be used to attempt to reduce the impact of federal income tax on shareholders investment returns include: when believed by the Adviser to be appropriate, selling stocks to realize losses, with the specific purpose of offsetting gains; deferring realizations of net capital gains; limiting portfolio turnover that may result in taxable gains; and choosing a tax accounting method that reduces tax liability: for example, using the highest-in, first-out (HIFO) method which sells tax lots of securities that have a higher tax basis before selling tax lots of securities that have a lower tax basis.
The Adviser believes that effective management of transaction costs is essential. Transaction costs include commissions, bid-ask spreads, market impact and time delays (the time between the investment decision and implementation, during which a market may move in favor of or against the Fund). In order to manage transaction costs and minimize adverse tax consequences, the Adviser does not intend to rebalance the Funds portfolio mechanically or to purchase and sell exclusively those securities defined by the eligibility criteria described above. The Adviser will seek to maintain flexibility to trade opportunistically in order to strike a balance between maintaining the desired exposure to positive momentum while attempting to keep transaction costs reasonably low and to minimize federal income taxes on returns.
The Fund invests significantly in common stocks. The Fund may also invest in or use financial futures contracts, forward foreign currency contracts and other types of equity-linked derivative instruments such as equity swaps and equity index swaps, as well as exchange-traded funds and similar pooled investment vehicles to gain exposure to the equity market and to maintain liquidity to pay for redemptions. A portion of the Funds assets may be held in cash or cash-equivalent investments, including, but not limited to, short-term investment funds. To attempt to increase its income or total return, the Fund may lend its portfolio securities to certain types of eligible borrowers.
