Overview

Overview
Actively Managed and Sub-Advised by Wilshire Associates Incorporated

Objective

The Fund seeks to provide investors with capital appreciation.

Investment Style

  • This "fund of funds" primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of underlying equity and fixed income funds. These underlying funds, in turn, invest in a variety of U.S. and foreign equity and fixed income securities
  • Under normal circumstances, the fund (through its investment in underlying funds) will invest at least 40% of its portfolio in securities of issuers outside of the U.S.
  • The majority of the underlying funds in which the fund invests will be affiliated funds; however, the fund has the ability to invest in unaffiliated underlying funds
  • The fund's sub-adviser seeks to develop an optimal model allocation among underlying funds that seeks to provide capital appreciation through global exposure to a broad array of asset classes and investment strategies
  • Under normal circumstances, the fund expects to allocate its assets among equity and fixed income funds as follows: Equity Fund Allocation: 45-75%; Fixed Income Fund Allocation: 25-55%
A WORD ABOUT RISK

The value of an investment in the Fund is based on the performance of the underlying funds in which it invests and the allocation of its assets among those funds. The underlying funds may change their investment goals, policies or practices and there can be no assurance that the underlying funds will achieve their respective investment goals. Because the Fund invests in mutual funds, shareholders indirectly bear a proportionate share of the expenses charged by the underlying funds in which it invests. The principal risks of an investment in the Fund include the principal risks of investing in the underlying funds. The Fund’s ability to achieve its investment goal depends upon the sub-adviser’s skill in selecting the best mix of underlying funds. The Adviser engages a sub-adviser to make investment decisions for the Fund’s portfolio; it may be unable to identify and retain a sub-adviser who achieves superior investment returns relative to other similar sub-advisers. Events in the U.S. and global financial markets, including actions taken to stimulate or stabilize economic growth may at times result in unusually high market volatility, which could negatively impact Fund performance and cause it to experience illiquidity, shareholder redemptions, or other potentially adverse effects. Financial institutions could suffer losses if interest rates rise or economic conditions deteriorate. The principal risks of an investment in the Fund include the principal risks of investing in the underlying funds in addition to those of the Fund. The Fund invests in equities which are subject to market volatility and loss. The Fund invests in foreign securities, foreign depositary receipts, emerging markets and frontier markets securities which carry the associated risks of economic and political instability, market liquidity, currency volatility and differences in accounting standards that differ from those of U.S. markets and offer less protection to investors. The Fund invests in fixed-income securities which can lose their value as interest rates rise and are subject to credit risk which is the risk of deterioration in the financial condition of an issuer and/or general economic conditions that can cause the issuer to not make timely payments of principal and interest also causing the securities to decline in value and an investor can lose principal. The Fund invests in non-investment grade debt securities which are considered speculative with respect to the issuers’ ability to make timely payments of interest and principal, may lack liquidity and has had more frequent and larger price changes than other debt securities. The Fund invests in derivatives which may expose the Fund to additional risk than directly investing in securities and may lack a liquid market, are subject to counterparty risk and leverage risk which could result in increased volatility of returns as well as losses. Liquidity risk may exist when particular investments are difficult to purchase or sell, which can reduce an underlying fund’s return. Leverage can create an interest expense that may lower the Fund's overall returns. There can be no guarantee that a leveraging strategy will be successful. Current and future portfolio holdings are subject to change.
