FUND OVERVIEW

 

Investment Objectives and Policies

The investment objective of this fund is to seek long-term capital appreciation. Market capitalizations of issues selected will be primarily in excess of $5 billion.

Who Should Invest

The Bishop Street Large Cap Core Equity Fund might be a good choice for you if you're seeking to:
  • Invest for a long-term goal such as retirement.
  • Reduce risk in your existing portfolio by adding diversification.
  • Participate in the growth potential of the stock market.
  • Hedge against inflation.
Investment Strategy
The Large Cap Core Equity Fund primarily invest (at least 80% of its net assets) in common stocks and other equity securities of U.S. issuers with market capitalizations in excess of $5 billion. The Fund seeks to be diversified across issuers and major economic sectors. In making a determination to buy, sell or hold a security, the portfolio management team gives special consideration to the relationship of the security to the risk/reward measurement of the entire portfolio.

The Sub-Adviser uses quantitative models and fundamental analysis to look for large cap companies that appear to have the potential for more rapid price appreciation than other large cap securities and the overall stock market in general. The Sub-Adviser will generally sell a portfolio security when the Adviser believes (i) the security has achieved its value potential, (ii) changing fundamentals signal a deteriorating value potential, or (iii) other large cap securities have a better performance potential.

Industry Diversification

This refers to investing assets over various industry sectors such as financial services, pharmaceuticals, and technology companies. Diversification is important at this level because industry sectors do not perform identically to each other and it enables us to benefit from the growth opportunities of each sector. Over time, portfolio risk is reduced because sectors that perform poorly during a particular time period may be offset by sectors that are performing well.

Company Diversification

This refers to the diversification among stocks within each industry sector. This type of diversification is equally important, since companies within the same industry do not perform identically to each other. As with industry diversification, company diversification provides the opportunity to benefit from stocks that are performing well within the industry sector and offset stocks that are not performing as well.
