Institutional Large Cap Core Strategy

Investment Objective

The portfolio manager seeks to outperform the S&P 500 Index over a full market cycle. He aims to implement a rigorous risk management process.

Benchmark

S&P 500 Index

Investment Philosophy

The portfolio manager believes he adds value by maintaining a pure style that provides excess return with similar or less volatility than the benchmark. He also believes stock prices may vary significantly from fair value in the short run due to the imperfect flow of information and the mispricing of risk in the market. The portfolio manager believes stock prices will regress to fair value, and that returns on equity, assets and capital will revert to equilibrium over the intermediate term.
