DMECX Investment Objective and Strategy
Dreyfus Select Managers Small Cap Value Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by BNY Mellon Strategic Funds, Inc..
Investment objective
The fund seeks capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
"To pursue its goal, the fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in the stocks of small cap companies. The fund currently considers small cap companies to be those companies with market capitalizations that fall within the range of companies in the Russell 2000 Value Index, the funds benchmark index. The fund's portfolio is constructed so as to have a value tilt. The fund may invest up to 15% of its assets in foreign securities. The fund uses a ""multi-manager"" approach by selecting one or more subadvisers to manage the fund's assets. The fund may hire, terminate or replace subadvisers and modify material terms and conditions of subadvisory arrangements without shareholder approval. The fund's assets are currently allocated among six subadvisers, each of which acts independently of the others and uses its own methodology to select portfolio investments."
