Acuitas believes inefficient areas of the equity markets such as microcap can provide attractive active return opportunities for skilled investment managers. However, there are unique challenges to finding appealing investment solutions in this area. Acuitas helps clients access this inefficient area by providing:

CAPACITY:
Capacity in this area can be challenging to come by because managers fill up quickly. Our multi-manager portfolio offers the potential for greater capacity than individual managers because we are able to upgrade the portfolio into new managers with excess capacity. Our process provides investors a long-term balanced exposure to U.S. microcap markets.

FOCUS:
Acuitas’ focus allows us to offer unique competitive advantages and expertise. By focusing  on microcap markets, Acuitas is able to increase the depth and breadth of our research across the manager universe. This depth and breadth support what we believe are our competitive advantages, including our new manager idea generation, our manager research and the ongoing monitoring and upgrading of our clients’ portfolios.

EFFICIENCY:
Most investors have limited resources to cover all asset classes. Niche investments such as microcap provide strong expected risk/return opportunities but represent relatively small investments compared to the overall portfolio. Acuitas offers an efficient way to take advantage of these opportunities through our focused investment process without taking up a disproportionate amount of clients’ resources.

 

Investment Considerations:
There can be no guarantee that any strategy (risk management or otherwise) will be successful. All investing involves risk, including potential loss of principal.

Equity: Equity securities (stocks) are more volatile and carry more risk than other forms of investments, including investments in high-grade fixed income securities. The net asset value per share of these Fund will fluctuate as the value of the securities in the portfolio changes.

Before investing you should carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses. This and other information is in the prospectus, a copy of which can be obtained by calling (844) 805-5628. Please read the prospectus carefully before you invest.
