PFSGX Investment Objective and Strategy
PFG Global Equity Index Strategy Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Northern Lights Fund Trust.
Investment objective
The Fund seeks growth of capital.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund, under normal circumstances, will invest least 80% of its assets (defined as net assets plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in mutual funds and exchange traded funds (?ETFs?) that are passively managed and seek to track a specific index consisting of either or both U.S. and foreign equity securities of any capitalization (?Underlying Funds?), in order to obtain exposure to the broad global equity market. The Fund is an actively managed fund and does not seek to track any particular index. Equity investments will include U.S. equity securities, foreign equity securities, and emerging market equity securities. The Fund considers emerging market countries to be those represented in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, an index that tracks broad based global equity markets comprising 23 developed countries and 25 emerging markets.
The Fund considers foreign issuers to be those that are domiciled outside of the U.S. The Fund operates as a fund of funds. The Fund?s target allocation, under normal circumstances, will be 50% to 70% in U.S. equity indices, 30% to 50% in international equity indices, The Fund operates as a fund of funds. In selecting Underlying Funds to purchase or sell on behalf of the Fund, Pacific Financial Group, LLC (the ?Adviser?) will utilize information about equity model portfolios offered by various institutional strategists. The Adviser will be responsible for deciding which Underlying Funds to purchase and sell on behalf of the Fund. To achieve the Fund?s objective, the Adviser intends to utilize a strategic asset allocation approach, which focuses on long-term growth based on long-term returns, risk, and correlation forecasts.
The Fund?s investment approach will utilize a blend of quantitative tools with qualitative analysis to assess the investment landscape to determine asset allocation. Although the Fund does not intend to focus its investments in any particular sector, its portfolio may be focused in certain sectors from time to time as a result of its investment process and indirectly through the holdings of Underlying Funds. In addition, in managing the Fund?s level of investment risk, the Adviser utilizes RiskPro , a software technology developed by ProTools, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser. Based on proprietary algorithms, RiskPro provides an estimate of the range of gain or loss of a portfolio of securities over a forward-looking rolling twelve-month period. The higher the RiskPro estimate, the greater the level of volatility that the Fund may experience over a twelve-month period.
RiskPro?s algorithms take into account, among other factors, the volatility of the portfolio over the prior twelve months; a comparison of the portfolio?s volatility over the prior twelve-month period, to the volatility of the S&P 500 Index; and the long-term volatility of the S&P 500 Index. The Adviser utilizes RiskPro to manage the Fund?s volatility as a whole, and to assess the impact of the Fund?s investment in Underlying Funds. In some circumstances, the Adviser may use RiskPro to identify specific Underlying Funds in which to invest, on behalf of the Fund. For this Fund, there is no limit on the Fund?s maximum annual volatility. Consequently, in managing the Fund, the Adviser will permit the Fund?s potential total return, over a twelve-month period, as estimated by RiskPro , to exceed a gain or loss of more than 30%.
Depending on market conditions, the Fund?s potential gain or loss, as estimated by RiskPro , may be below 30% from time to time. The use of RiskPro allows investors to evaluate whether the expected volatility of the Fund, as estimated by RiskPro over a forward-looking rolling twelve-month period, is aligned with the investors? level of comfort with investment risk.
