Fund Description

The fund's investment adviser uses the Davis Investment Discipline to invest at least 80% of the fund's net assets, plus any borrowing for investment purposes, in securities issued by companies principally engaged in the financial services sector. It invests principally in common stocks (including indirect holdings of common stock through depositary receipts). A company is principally engaged in financial services if it owns financial services-related assets that constitute at least 50% of the value of all of its assets, or if it derives at least 50% of its revenues from providing financial services.
