Nomura US Large Cap Core Equity Fund applies a growth mindset to the core investment universe, seeking to create a focused portfolio of quality businesses with underappreciated growth drivers at reasonable valuations.
Core focus
Focused portfolio invests primarily in US companies across the valuation and large- to mid-cap spectrum
Disciplined discovery
Stock selection results from uncovering underappreciated earnings catalysts in companies with competitive advantages
High conviction
Seeks to deliver alpha by investing in the team’s strongest investment convictions in select, quality businesses
Strategic emphasis on idiosyncratic and thematic/macro drivers, rather than targeting efficiently valued large-cap companies, has the potential to offer significant opportunity for alpha generation.
A focused portfolio of 40–50 holdings allows the team to avoid companies undergoing competitive disruption while owning businesses with improving fundamentals.
The strategy seeks companies exhibiting key characteristics: fundamental catalysts driving earnings, competitive moats for potential downside protection, and reasonable valuations.
Provide investors with long-term capital appreciation by investing in equity and equity-related securities of primarily US issuers.
Carefully consider the Fund's investment objectives, risk factors, charges, and expenses before investing. This and other information can be found in the Fund's prospectus and its summary prospectus, which may be obtained by visiting nomuraassetmanagement.com/literature or calling 800 523-1918 (for individual investors) or 877 693-3546 (for financial professionals). Investors should read the prospectus and the summary prospectus carefully before investing.
Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal.
A fund or strategy that holds a limited number of securities may be more sensitive to the price fluctuations of a single security in its portfolio and may be more volatile than a fund or strategy that holds a greater number of securities.
International investing (particularly in emerging markets) may be adversely affected by political instability; changes in currency exchange rates; inefficient markets and higher transaction costs; foreign economic conditions; the imposition of economic or trade sanctions; or inadequate or different regulatory and accounting standards. Investing in emerging markets involves greater risk than investing in more developed foreign markets because, among other things, emerging markets may have less stable political and economic environments, information about issuers may be less available or of a lesser quality, and securities markets may be smaller, less liquid, and subject to greater price volatility.
Diversification may not protect against market risk.
A "value stock" is a stock that is believed to be undervalued. Investments in value stocks are subject to the risk that the stocks are appropriately valued or that the stocks may decline in value.
Large-capitalization companies tend to be less volatile than companies with smaller market capitalizations. This potentially lower risk means that the Fund's share price may not rise as much as the share prices of funds that focus on smaller capitalization companies.
Fund performance will be affected by factors particular to the sectors the Fund invests in (such as government regulation).
