Fund Family Overview

Westwood's mutual fund strategies are deeply rooted in our 25-year investment philosophy that seeks to deliver a superior rate of return while controlling risk. Our investment team looks for low risk investments with attractive valuations that have unrecognized prospects for long-term growth. We invest in high quality companies that may be characterized by declining debt levels, rising return on equity and capital with experienced management that can articulate and execute their business plan.

 WHG Balanced Fund

The WHG Balanced Fund seeks to provide capital appreciation and current income by investing in a portfolio of stocks and fixed-income securities. Equity securities held by the Fund are seasoned companies with proven performance records and above-average earnings growth potential. The debt securities are, in aggregate, investment grade securities of corporate and government issuers. The actual mix will vary depending on the Adviser's analysis of market and economic conditions.

What differentiates the WHG Balanced Fund

Westwood uses a bottom-up approach in seeking to provide equity-like returns but with lower volatility than a fully invested equity portfolio. The Balanced Fund combines two of Westwood's well-established investment strategies: LargeCap Equity and Fixed Income. Both strategies seek to achieve superior investment returns as stand alone strategies; combined, they offer the added benefit of asset allocation.



 WHG Income Opportunity

The Income Opportunity Fund seeks to provide a higher level of current income than offered by traditional fixed income products along with the opportunity for long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests in the securities of high quality companies that are supported by strong and improving fundamentals and a proven track record of serving as good stewards of investor capital.

What differentiates the WHG Income Opportunity Fund

The Income Opportunity Fund is a unique, bottom-up, income focused investment strategy that offers both transparency and liquidity. The Fund is an attractive alternative to traditional fixed income strategies, with lower volatility relative to traditional equity strategies, and the added potential for long-term capital appreciation.



 WHG LargeCap Value

The LargeCap Value Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing in equity securities of large-cap companies. The Fund generally invests in large U.S. companies that have a market capitalization within the range of companies comprising the Russell 1000 Value Index.

What differentiates the WHG LargeCap Value Fund

Westwood's investment process is designed to generate superior risk-adjusted returns through bottom-up, value-based stock selection. The Fund focuses on large-cap ideas that have limited downside risk and the opportunity to generate earning/cash flows that are higher than what the current stock price implies. These criteria produce an asymmetric risk/reward profile, which Westwood believes leads to superior long-term returns.



 WHG SmallCap Value

The WHG SmallCap Value Fund seeks to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing in equity securities of small-cap companies. The Fund generally invests in small U.S. companies that have a market capitalization between $100 million and $2 billion at the time of purchase.

In addition to the normal risks associated with investing, bonds and bond funds are subject to interest rate risk and will decline in value as interest rates rise. Investment in smaller companies typically exhibit higher volatility.

Asset allocation does not guarantee against loss.
