C000125332 Investment Objective and Strategy
DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Dfa Investment Dimensions Group INC.
Investment objective
The investment objective of the DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio (the “Portfolio”) is to seek total return consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio is a “fund of funds,” which means that the Portfolio uses its assets to purchase other mutual funds (the “Underlying Funds”) managed by Dimensional Fund Advisors LP (the “Advisor”).
Principal investment strategy
To achieve its investment objective, the Portfolio, under normal market circumstances, purchases shares of the Underlying Funds to achieve a moderate allocation to both global equity and global fixed income securities. Generally, the DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio invests its assets in domestic and international equity Underlying Funds and fixed income Underlying Funds to achieve an allocation that provides a moderate allocation to global equity securities, with an allocation of approximately 50% to 70% of the Portfolios assets to domestic and international equity Underlying Funds and 30% to 50% of its assets to fixed income Underlying Funds. Periodically, the Advisor will review the allocations for the DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio in each Underlying Fund and may adjust allocations to Underlying Funds or may add or remove Underlying Funds without notice to shareholders.
In addition, when the Advisor determines that market forces have caused fundamental changes in the relative values of the assets of the Underlying Funds, the Advisor may modify the allocations of the DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio. In addition to its allocation strategy of providing exposure to the domestic and international equity and fixed income markets through investment in the Underlying Funds, the DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio further diversifies its investment portfolio by allocating its assets among Underlying Funds that represent a variety of different asset classes. As of the date of this Prospectus, the DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio invests in: (1) domestic equity Underlying Funds that purchase a broad and diverse portfolio of securities of U.S.
operating companies of all market capitalization sizes and a domestic equity Underlying Fund that primarily invests in publicly traded real estate investment trusts (REITs); (2) international equity Underlying Funds that purchase a broad and diverse portfolio of securities of companies in developed and emerging markets of all market capitalization sizes which may include frontier markets (emerging market countries in an earlier stage of development); and (3) fixed income Underlying Funds that may purchase U.S. and foreign debt securities such as obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. and foreign governments, their agencies and instrumentalities, bank obligations, commercial paper, repurchase agreements, obligations of other domestic and foreign issuers having investment grade ratings, obligations of supranational organizations and inflation-protected securities.
The Underlying Funds in which the DFA VA Global Moderate Allocation Portfolio invests as of the date of this Prospectus are described in the Portfolios Prospectus in the section entitled Investments in Underlying Funds . The Portfolio and each Underlying Fund may purchase or sell futures contracts and options on futures contracts, to adjust market exposure based on actual or expected cash inflows to or outflows from the Portfolio or Underlying Fund. Certain fixed income Underlying Funds use foreign currency forward contracts to attempt to protect against uncertainty in the level of future foreign currency rates, to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates or to transfer balances from one currency to another. Certain fixed income Underlying Funds also may purchase or sell as futures contracts and options on futures contracts, to hedge their interest rate or currency exposure or for non-hedging purposes, such as a substitute for direct investment.
The Portfolio and the Underlying Funds do not intend to sell futures contracts to establish short positions in individual securities. The DFA Moderate Allocation Portfolio and Underlying Funds may lend their portfolio securities to generate additional income. Certain of the Underlying Funds are available for investment only by insurance company separate accounts that fund variable life and variable annuity contracts.
