Fund Description

Under normal market conditions, the Dividend Growth Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in common stocks that have a record of paying dividends. The Fund’s investments also include up to 10% of its assets in foreign securities, such as American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), and shares of other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). The Fund will typically invest in equity securities of mid to large capitalization companies that exhibit a commitment to sustainable and growing dividends. The Fund defines mid-capitalization companies as those whose market capitalization, at the time of purchase, is consistent with the market capitalizations of companies listed in the S&P Mid-Cap 400 Index. As of the last reconstitution date, December 31, 2020, the lowest market capitalization of companies in the S&P Mid-Cap 400 Index was approximately $1.5 billion. The Fund defines large-capitalization companies as those whose market capitalization, at the time of purchase, is consistent with the market capitalizations of companies listed in the S&P 500 Index. As of the last reconstitution date, December 31, 2020, the lowest market capitalization of companies in the S&P 500 Index was approximately $3.9 billion.
The Fund is a non-diversified fund and may, from time to time, have significant exposure to one or more issuers, industries, geographic regions or sectors of the global economy.
Brentview Investment Management, LLC (the “Sub-Adviser”) applies a fundamentally driven approach to identifying dividend growth stocks. The Sub-Adviser believes superior long-term returns with lower-than-market risk may be produced by companies that pay and grow their dividend. Additionally, the Fund seeks:
•A portfolio with faster dividend growth, above market yield, and lower beta characteristics. Beta measures the level of volatility a particular security will have when compared against a broader market index. Equity securities that have historically shown defensive characteristics tend to be low beta securities. The Fund attempts to minimize overall volatility by maintaining an aggregate portfolio beta which is lower than the S&P 500 Index, the Fund’s primary benchmark.
•Quality companies that have healthy balance sheets, consistent execution, and large addressable markets; and
•Management teams that also realize the importance of dividends to shareholders.
The Sub-Adviser sells existing securities to avoid cuts to dividends as well as when it observes deterioration of a company’s fundamentals.
