PPGRX Investment Objective and Strategy
AllianzGI Focused Growth Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Virtus Investment Trust.
Investment objective
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by normally investing primarily in equity securities of U.S. companies with market capitalizations of at least $1 billion. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its assets in non-U.S. securities (but no more than 10% in any one non-U.S. country or 10% in emerging market securities). At times, depending on market and other conditions, the Fund may also invest a significant percentage of its assets in a small number of business sectors or industries. The portfolio managers normally select 25 to 45 stocks for the Funds portfolio. The portfolio managers attempt to include in the Funds portfolio securities that exhibit the greatest combination of earnings growth potential, quality (as reflected in consistent business fundamentals) and attractive valuation.
The portfolio managers ordinarily look for several of the following characteristics when analyzing specific companies for possible investment: higher than average growth and strong potential for capital appreciation; substantial capacity for growth in revenue, cash flow or earnings through either an expanding market or expanding market share; a strong balance sheet; superior management; strong commitment to research and product development; and differentiated or superior products and services or a steady stream of new products and services. Companies Environmental, Social and Corporate Governance (ESG) practices are also considered as the portfolio manager believes this offers an additional level of risk management in the investment process. ESG practices are considered and measured by the intrinsic ESG analyst team.
In addition to common stocks and other equity securities (such as preferred stocks, convertible securities and warrants), the Fund may utilize foreign currency exchange contracts, options, stock index futures contracts and other derivative instruments. Although the Fund did not invest significantly in derivative instruments as of the most recent fiscal year end, it may do so at any time.
