C000169667 Investment Objective and Strategy
The E-Valuator Moderate (50%-70%) RMS Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by World Funds Trust.
Investment objective
The E-Valuator Moderate RMS (Risk-Managed Strategy) Fund (the ?Fund?) seeks to provide both principal growth and income.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing, u nder normal market conditions, in the securities of other unaffiliated investment companies (including open-end funds, exchange-traded funds (?ETFs?)) and closed-end funds (collectively referred to as ?Underlying Funds?). The Fund utilizes a risk-managed strategy (thus, the term ?RMS? in the Fund?s name), which involves the allocation of invested assets across multiple underlying investments in a manner that provides fluctuations in annualized returns that would be commensurate to an investor seeking to experience very low volatility in year-over-year returns. An investment?s volatility is commonly measured by standard deviation. Standard deviation provides the probable range of anticipated returns based on the performance fluctuations over previous time periods (1-year, 3-year, or 5-year).
Investments with the lowest levels of standard deviation would be considered very conservative, while investments with higher levels of standard deviation would be considered more growth oriented and aggressive in nature (more volatile). The strategy of this Fund is to keep the level of annual performance fluctuation within parameters that would be suitable for a moderate risk investor. This is identified by standard deviations that are slightly greater than that of a conservative investor, but less than those of a typical growth oriented investor. The standard deviation goal for the Fund is to average between 5.5% to 8.5% over a 3-year timeframe or a 5-year timeframe. The Fund identifies the volatility goals over 3-year and 5-year timeframes by stating the acceptable range of standard deviation for each timeframe.
The Fund allocates assets across three broad asset classes (money market, bonds, equities) in a manner that provides a high probability of meeting the accepted volatility goals. The Fund will not have more than 50%-70% of its assets allocated to equities and will have the remainder allocated across money market and bonds based on continually changing market conditions. The Fund will allocate its assets into a variety of Underlying Funds that focus on investments in fixed income securities ( e.g. , money markets and bonds) that possess varying qualities of credit and duration including high-yield securities (also referred to as ?junk? bonds), and in equity securities that have the potential of providing dividends and growth on an annual basis. The equity allocation will be invested in Underlying Funds that invest in U.S.
and foreign securities (including emerging markets securities) and that focus on investments without regard to market capitalization (i.e., investments may include securities of issuers that would be considered small, medium and/or large capitalization companies). The Fund identifies an emerging market security based on it being placed on the Diversified Emerging Market equity category by Morningstar, Inc. Because market conditions may favor one asset class over another (e.g., fixed income securities may be favored over equity securities at any given time), the allocation of the Fund?s assets between fixed income and equity securities may range from 50% to 70% allocated to equities at any given time. The Fund will adjust the allocations between fixed income and equity in an effort to continually meet the overriding strategy of placing equal emphasis on income and growth.
For instance, in periods when interest rates are relatively high the Fund may adjust the allocation to fixed income to compensate for that environment. Whereas, during a period where interest rates are relatively low, the Fund may need to adjust the allocation to fixed income in an inverse manner to compensate for that environment. In other words, there may be market conditions that warrant allocating more of the Fund?s assets into fixed income, while there may be other market conditions that would warrant allocating more of the Fund?s assets to equity. Systelligence, LLC (the ?Adviser?) incorporates a ?Core and Satellite? management philosophy with, 50% to 80% of a category allocation invested in the ?Core? holdings and the remaining amount investing in the ?Satellite? holding. . A category allocation is the amount of assets to be allocated into an investment category.
Morningstar, Inc. has created what the Adviser believes to be an industry standard of investment categories, which aid in the recognition of an investment?s underlying holdings, e.g. , Intermediate Term Bond Category, Short Term Government Bond Category, Domestic Large Cap Stock Category, etc. The ?Core and Satellite? management philosophy is synonymous with ?Passive Management? and ?Active Management,? respectively. The ?Core? component pertains to the portion of the Fund?s asset allocation that is devoted to passive management. Passive management is considered a form of investment management whereby the allocation mirrors the allocation of a benchmark, or index. The Fund?s allocation into ?Core? holdings is achieved by investing a portion of the Fund?s assets into Underlying Funds that attempt to replicate the performance of a common index (e.
g. , S&P 500 , Russell 1000, Barclays US Aggregate Bond Index, etc.) (that is, passively managed Underlying Funds). The Fund?s allocation to ?Satellite? holdings corresponds to the portion of the Fund?s portfolio that will be invested in actively managed Underlying Funds. Active management is considered a form of investment management whereby the allocation is driven by security selection and trading with an overriding goal of outperforming a stated index, or benchmark. By constructing the Fund?s portfolio with Core and Satellite holdings, the Adviser is blending two management philosophies in an effort to capture the returns of the market indexes through Core holding, while also seeking to enhance the overall performance with Satellite holding, and thus attempting to deliver above average performance.
The Adviser allocates the Fund?s assets with respect to Satellite holdings among the Underlying Funds by utilizing proprietary quantitatively based models in which an Underlying Fund must meet a rigorous performance criteria of outperforming the average of its peer group by a minimum of 10% across multiple timeframes (1 month, 3 month, 6 month, 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, and 5 years) to be considered a potential (or remain as an existing) investment in the Fund. The emphasis each timeframe has on the overriding analysis is determined through a proprietary weighting process that enables the Adviser to place more emphasis on various timeframes through a variety of market cycles. The Adviser?s asset allocation will be rebalanced when an allocation dispersion exceeding +/-10% is experienced. For instance, if an Underlying Fund?s allocation of the Fund?s total assets equals 15%, then the Adviser would rebalance if/when this investment?s allocation exceeded 16.5% of the Fund?s total assets (110% x 15% = 16.5%), or if/when this Underlying Fund?s allocation as a percent of the Fund?s total assets drops to less than 13.5% (90% x 15% = 13.5%).
The Fund selects its ?Core? holdings by first arriving at an asset allocation across three broad asset classes (money market, bonds, and equities) that provides the highest probability of meeting the stated volatility goals. Once this broad asset allocation is determined, the second decision is the Fund will continue with allocations within each of the aforementioned broad asset classes. For instance, once the allocation percentage into equities has been determined, the next step would be to identify the amount allocated between Foreign and Domestic equities. Once this has been determined, the next decision is to determine the allocation into large companies, medium sized companies, and small companies within each equity sub-group. When the allocation based on company size has been determined, the Fund may dedicate a portion of that allocation into passive management, i.e.
index, also referred to as ?Core?. Likewise the Fund may allocate a portion of the allocation into active management, also referred to as ?Satellite?. Based on technical analysis of economic and market conditions, the Adviser may, from time to time, allocate up to 5% of the Fund?s net assets to investments in ETFs that are tied to the performance of the broad general markets as measured by such indices as the S&P 500 Index. These ETFs may include leveraged and inverse ETFs. The long-position in ETFs would reflect the Adviser?s assessment that the markets are moving in an upward direction. Whereas, an inverse position would reflect an assessment by the Adviser that the markets are generally moving downward. Depending upon the strength of the indicators in the Adviser?s technical analysis, the Adviser allocate to ETFs that are leveraged and would thus anticipate a multiple (e.g., 2X) of the performance of the market in either an upward or downward direction.
Due to the growth or decline in any allocation to this type of position, the Adviser would generally seek to re-balance the position whenever the amount allocated exceeds the amount initially allocated by plus or minus 2% of the Fund?s net assets. The Adviser sells or reduces the Fund?s position in an Underlying Fund when the Underlying Fund?s performance begins to lag the average of its respective peer group by 10% or more, and has done so for an average of 3-months or more. These performance tolerance standards are applied to multiple timeframes, i.e. , 1-month, 3-months, 6-months, 1-year, 2-year, 3-year, and 5-year timeframes. These settings are subject to change as market conditions warrant. The Fund may engage in frequent and active trading in order to achieve its investment objectives.
The Fund may invest in Underlying Funds that utilize derivatives. The Fund may focus, from time to time, its investments in a particular industry or sector for the purpose of capitalizing on the performance momentum due to significant changes in market conditions, economic conditions, geopolitical conditions, etc., as well as to reduce downside exposure to significant changes in conditions such as market, economic or geopolitical. Suitable Investor: A suitable investor for this Fund would be an individual/entity that tolerant to the daily fluctuations of the stock market (market risk), seeks interest income, and has equal emphasis on the generation of current income as well as growth.
