Management Firm
Nicholas-Applegate Capital Management LLC (NACM)

San Diego, California

Nicholas-Applegate believes that investing in companies undergoing positive change with sustainable characteristics and timely market recognition will result in outstanding investment performance. This investment approach is supported by a foundation of academic research in behavioral finance indicating that investors react inefficiently to changing information. This market inefficiency presents mispricing opportunities that the firm capitalizes on to earn excess return.

The Fund may invest in foreign securities, emerging market securities, and in smaller companies. Investing in foreign securities may entail risk due to foreign economic and political developments; this risk may be enhanced when investing in emerging markets, which are more volatile and may be less liquid than U.S. securities. Investments in smaller companies may be more volatile than investments in larger companies. This Fund may use derivative instruments for hedging purposes or as part of its investment strategy. Use of these instruments may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity risk, interest rate risk, market risk, credit risk, management risk and the risk that a fund could not close out a position when it would be most advantageous to do so. Portfolios investing in derivatives could lose more than the principal amount invested in those instruments.
