ABCS primarily invests in small- and mid-cap US stocks and ETFs. The portfolio consists of two integrated investment sleeves, consisting of 50-150 common stocks and up to 6 ETFs, each amounting to less than 50% of the funds assets. Employing a bottom-up approach, selection for the stock sleeve is based on value, fundamentals, business momentum, and target pricing. The ETF sleeve selects funds perceived to have strong performance records, low operating expenses, portfolio turnover, and capital gains distributions. The sub-adviser also analyzes various risk factors that serve as guides in determining the merits of holding an investment. Allocations are reviewed at least monthly. The actively managed fund seeks to be dynamic and opportunistic, allowing the fund manager to have full discretion to adjust the portfolio at any time. Hence, it may engage in securities lending or make investments outside of the US. Additionally, the fund may also invest in BDCs, REITs, and MLPs.
