Multimanager Mid Cap Growth Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Eq Advisors Trust.

Investment objective

Seeks to achieve long-term growth of capital.

Principal investment strategy

Under normal circumstances, the Portfolio intends to invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in equity securities of U.S. mid-capitalization companies. For purposes of this Portfolio, mid-capitalization companies generally are companies with market capitalization within the range of companies in the Russell 2500 TM Index (Russell 2500) or the Russell Midcap Index (Russell Midcap) at the time of investment (as of December 31, 2017, the market capitalization of the companies in the Russell 2500 was between $22.7 million and $17.2 billion and the market capitalization of the companies in the Russell Midcap was between $0.8 billion and $36.7 billion). In addition, securities of mid-capitalization companies may include financial instruments that derive their value from the securities of such companies.

The sizes of the companies in these indexes change with market conditions, which can result in changes to the market capitalization ranges of companies in the indexes. The Portfolio intends to invest primarily in common stocks, but it may also invest in other securities that a Sub-Adviser believes provide opportunities for capital growth. AXA Equitable Funds Management Group, LLC (FMG LLC or Adviser) will generally allocate the Portfolios assets among three or more Sub-Advisers, each of which will manage its portion of the Portfolio using different yet complementary investment strategies. Under normal circumstances, one portion of the portfolio will track the performance of a particular index (Index Allocated Portion) and the other portions of the Portfolio will be actively managed (Active Allocated Portions).

Under normal circumstances, the Adviser anticipates allocating approximately 50% of the Portfolios net assets to the Index Allocated Portion and the remaining 50% of net assets among the Active Allocated Portions. These percentages are targets established by the Adviser and actual allocations between the portions may deviate from these targets by up to 20% of the Portfolios net assets. The Index Allocated Portion of the Portfolio seeks to track the performance (before fees and expenses) of the Russell 2500 TM Growth Index with minimal tracking error. This strategy is commonly referred to as an indexing strategy. Generally, the Index Allocated Portion uses a full replication technique, although in certain instances a sampling approach may be utilized for a portion of the Index Allocated Portion.

Each Active Allocated Portion utilizes an aggressive, growth-oriented investment style and invests primarily in equity securities of companies that, in the view of the Sub-Adviser, are either in or entering into the growth phase of their business cycle. A Sub-Adviser may sell a security for a variety of reasons, such as to make other investments believed by the Sub-Adviser to offer superior investment opportunities. The Portfolio also may lend its portfolio securities to earn additional income.
