C000159726 Investment Objective and Strategy
Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Investment Managers Series Trust.
Investment objective
"The investment objective of the Segall Bryant & Hamill Emerging Markets Fund (the ""Fund"" or ""Emerging Markets Fund"") is to seek long-term capital appreciation."
Principal investment strategy
"Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (including amounts borrowed for investment purposes) in equity securities, primarily common stock, of companies tied economically to emerging markets countries. The Fund's advisor considers emerging markets countries to be those countries included in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, which, as of the date of the Fund's prospectus, consisted of Brazil, Chile, China, Colombia, Czech Republic, Egypt, Greece, Hungary, India, Indonesia, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Pakistan, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Russia, Qatar, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Turkey and United Arab Emirates. If the countries composing the MSCI Emerging Markets Index change, the Fund's advisor will similarly adjust its criteria to reflect any such change.
The Fund's advisor considers a company to be tied economically to a particular country if: (i) it is organized under the laws of that country or maintains its principal offices or headquarters in that country; (ii) its securities are principally traded in that country; or (iii) it derives at least 50% of its revenues or profits from goods produced or sold, investments made, or services performed in that country, or has at least 50% of its assets in that country. The Fund will allocate its assets among various regions and countries. The Fund may invest in companies of any size market capitalization. The Fund may purchase equity securities on exchanges where companies are located, and on exchanges other than where companies are domiciled (often traded as dual listed securities) or in the form of Depository Receipts, which include American Depository Receipts (""ADRs""), Global Depository Receipts (""GDRs"") or similar securities.
The Fund may also purchase participatory notes (commonly known as ""P-notes"") issued by foreign banks or brokers evidencing ownership of underlying stocks issued by a foreign company. This type of investment allows the Fund to have exposure to foreign securities without trading directly in the local market. The Fund may use derivatives such as swaps, options, futures, options on futures and P-notes to manage risk inherent in the Fund's portfolio (e.g., cash flows and currency exposure). The Fund may also enter into forward currency exchange contracts to hedge against uncertainty in the level of future foreign exchange rates in the purchase and sale of investment securities; it will not enter into such contracts for speculative purposes. Investments in P-notes, exchange-traded funds (""ETFs"") or derivatives, such as swaps, options, futures and options on futures designed to provide exposure to emerging market indices, will be considered equity securities for purposes of meeting the Fund's 80% investment policy.
The Fund's advisor uses proprietary quantitative models to evaluate and select countries and securities. The Fund's advisor evaluates and selects securities based on value, momentum and profitability models. The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading. The Fund's advisor generally will sell a security when, in its opinion, one or more of the following occurs, among other reasons: 1) the advisor's estimate of full valuation is realized; 2) the Fund's position in a company becomes over-weighted due to appreciation; 3) a more attractive stock is identified (in which case a less attractive stock in the portfolio is sold); 4) there is change in a company's underlying fundamentals; or 5) the Fund requires cash to meet redemption requests."
