Objective
Seeks to provide investors with capital appreciation.
Strategy
Invests primarily in small- and mid-cap common stocks listed on U.S. exchanges, focusing on those with low expected volatility. The Sub-Advisor uses volatility forecasting models to rank securities and allocate larger weights to those with lower future expected volatility. The strategy is quantitative and rules-based, with discretion for active management. The portfolio is periodically rebalanced, which may lead to higher turnover.
