C000087816 Investment Objective and Strategy
Columbia Variable Portfolio - U.S. Equities Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Columbia Funds Variable Series Trust II.
Investment objective
Columbia Variable Portfolio (VP) – U.S. Equities Fund (the Fund) seeks to provide shareholders with long-term capital growth.
Principal investment strategy
Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Funds net assets (including the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) are invested in equity securities of U.S. companies. Under normal circumstances, the Fund (i) invests a majority of its net assets in the common stock of small- and mid-sized companies with market capitalizations under $5 billion at the time of initial investment (Focus Stocks) and (ii) may also invest in companies with market capitalizations above $5 billion, provided that immediately after that investment a majority of the Funds net assets would be invested in Focus Stocks. The Fund may continue to hold, and to make additional investments in, Focus Stocks whose market capitalization has grown to exceed $5 billion, regardless of whether the Funds investments in Focus Stocks are a majority of the Funds net assets.
The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its net assets in foreign investments. The Fund may invest in foreign securities directly or indirectly through depositary receipts. The Fund may from time to time emphasize one or more sectors in selecting its investments, including the financial services sector. The Fund also may invest in real estate investment trusts. The Fund may invest in derivatives, including futures (including equity futures and index futures), for hedging, investment or cash equitization purposes. Columbia Management Investment Advisers, LLC (Columbia Management or the Investment Manager) serves as the investment manager for the Fund and will attempt to achieve the Funds objective by managing a portion of the Funds assets and selecting one or more subadvisers to manage other portions of the Funds assets independently of each other and Columbia Management.
Columbia Management combines fundamental and quantitative analysis with risk management in identifying investment opportunities and constructing its portion of the Funds portfolio. A portion of the Funds assets is subadvised by Columbia Wanger Asset Management, LLC (CWAM), a wholly-owned affiliate of the Investment Manager. The subadviser and Columbia Management each make investment decisions for their respective portions of the Funds assets independently of one another.
