Investment Objectives

The Fund seeks to provide a combination of income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of U.S. dividend paying and other equity securities as well as fixed income securities. The fundamental investment objective of the Fund cannot be changed without the approval of investors who own securities in the Fund.

Investment Strategy

For the equity portion of the Fund, the portfolio advisor uses a fundamental, value based investment approach that seeks attractively priced securities that offer potential for growth and income. Investment analysis is focused on understanding and evaluating the factors that make a company profitable, including profit margins; the use of assets; debt levels; revenues and reinvestment opportunities.
