C000052853 Investment Objective and Strategy
Madison Target Retirement 2020 Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Ultra Series Fund.
Investment objective
The Madison Target Retirement 2020 Fund seeks to provide capital appreciation and current income consistent with its current asset allocation.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund invests primarily in shares of other registered investment companies, including those whose shares trade on a stock exchange (exchange traded funds or ETFs) (the underlying funds), according to an asset allocation strategy developed by the Funds investment adviser, Madison Asset Management, LLC (Madison), for investors planning to retire in or within a few years of 2020. Over time, the Funds asset allocation will become more conservative until it reaches approximately 10-30% in stock funds and 70-90% in bond funds as illustrated in the chart below. The asset allocation strategy is designed to reduce the volatility of investment returns in the later years while still providing the potential for higher total returns over the target period. Market conditions and the perceived value of securities will change as the investor moves across the glide path.
Although the actual allocations may vary, as of December 31, 2025, the Funds portfolio allocation as a percentage of net assets was: - Bond Funds: 77.3% - Foreign Stock Funds: 5.8% - Short-Term Investments: 2.8% - Stock Funds: 14.1% - Net Other Assets and Liabilities: 0.0% On a periodic basis, Madison will evaluate and sometimes revise the Funds asset allocation, including revising the asset class weightings and adding and/or removing underlying funds. Madison will also monitor the underlying funds on an ongoing basis and may increase or decrease the Funds investment in one or several underlying funds. The underlying fund selections are made based on several considerations, including the Funds style or asset class exposures, portfolio characteristics, risk profile, and investment process. The Funds investment strategy reflects Madisons general Participate and Protect investment philosophy.
Madisons expectation is that investors in the Fund will participate in market appreciation during bull markets and experience something less than full participation during bear markets compared with investors in portfolios holding more speculative and volatile securities; therefore, this investment philosophy is intended to represent a conservative investment strategy. There is no assurance that Madisons expectations regarding this investment strategy will be realized. Although the Fund expects to pursue its investment objective utilizing its principal investment strategies regardless of market conditions, the Fund may invest up to 100% in cash, money market funds, and/or money market instruments. To the extent the Fund engages in this temporary defensive position, the Funds ability to achieve its investment objective may be diminished.
