C000102468 Investment Objective and Strategy

James Alpha Global Real Estate Investments Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Saratoga Advantage Trust.

Investment objective

The investment objective of the Portfolio is total return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation.

Principal investment strategy

Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in real estate and real estate-related issuers or investments that provide exposure to real estate and real estate-related issuers, and in derivatives and other instruments that have economic characteristics similar to such securities. The Portfolio may invest 100% of its net assets (other than cash and cash equivalents) in REITs, and may also invest in other publicly traded real estate securities that are included in the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT Developed Real Estate Index (the Index). The Index may include securities of any issuer that derived in the previous full fiscal year at least 75% of its total earnings before interest, depreciation and amortization (EBIDA) from the ownership, trading and development of income-producing real estate.

REITs are typically small or medium capitalization stocks which fall within the range of $250 million to $10 billion in equity market capitalization. Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio invests at least 40% of its net assets in the securities of issuers located in at least three foreign countries. The Portfolio will limit its investments in issuers located in any single foreign country to no more than 25% of its net assets. The Portfolio also seeks to enhance current income by writing (selling) covered call options with a notional value of up to 30% of the Portfolios net assets. Notional value is the value of an option contracts underlying shares at the current market price. The Sub-Adviser uses both a quantitative screening process and a qualitative stock selection process when selecting securities for investment by the Portfolio in connection with its strategy.

Quantitative Screening Process : The Sub-Adviser and Green Street Advisors of Newport Beach, California, an independent research and consulting firm concentrating on publicly-traded real estate securities, have designed a proprietary quantitative screening model, the Global Real Estate Investment Model (the Model), which the Sub-Adviser uses to identify the securities in which the Portfolio may invest. The Model identifies approximately 80 qualifying securities for evaluation by the Sub-Adviser (Qualifying Securities). Qualifying Securities may include those issued by companies in a variety of sectors within the real estate industry, including, among others, the retail, office, industrial, hotel, healthcare multi-family and self-storage sectors. Qualitative Stock Selection Process : All Qualifying Securities are evaluated by the Sub-Adviser in determining appropriate investments for the Portfolio.

The Sub-Adviser selects the top 40 to 50 securities from among the approximately 80 Qualifying Securities based on its assessment of certain factors including, but not limited to, management quality, balance sheet strength, debt structure and maturities, lease term and renewal schedule, tenant credit quality, regional macroeconomic conditions and trends and projected demand drivers and supply constraints for space. The Sub-Adviser may sell a security held in the portfolio when it no longer qualifies under the parameters established by the Model.
