Investment objective
Seeks long-term capital growth.
Principal investment strategy
The portfolio invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of borrowings, if any, for investment purposes) in domestic common stocks. The portfolio invests primarily in common stocks of growth-oriented companies. Portfolio construction emphasizes stock specific risk while minimizing other sources of broad market risk. The goal is a portfolio whose relative performance is not dependent on the market environment. The portfolios sub-adviser, Wellington Management Company LLP (the sub-adviser), employs a bottom up approach, using fundamental analysis to identify specific securities within industries or sectors for purchase or sale. A bottom-up approach evaluates individual companies in the context of broader market factors. The sub-advisers stock selection process is derived from its observation that the quality and persistence of a companys business is often not reflected in its current stock price.
Central to the investment process is fundamental research focused on uncovering companies with improving quality metrics, business momentum, and attractive relative valuations. The investment process is aided by a proprietary screening process that narrows the investment universe to companies that are consistent with the investment philosophy. The initial investment universe is comprised of: Securities held in the Russell 1000 Growth and S&P 500 Growth Indexes Equity securities within the market-cap range of the index with historical or projected growth rates greater than the Russell 1000 Index median Stocks that meet other growth criteria as determined by the team Consistent with the portfolios objective and other policies, the portfolio may invest to a lesser extent in derivatives, including futures, forwards, options and swaps.
The portfolio may invest up to 20% of its total assets in foreign securities (not including American Depositary Receipts, American Depositary Shares or U.S. dollar denominated securities of foreign issuers).
