About AMAEX

The American Century Small Cap Dividend Fund Investor Class is a mutual fund focused on generating long-term capital growth, with a secondary emphasis on income. The fund primarily invests in small-cap U.S. companies that offer dividend or income potential, selecting between 65 and 85 firms that demonstrate strong balance sheets, quality management, and sustainable competitive advantages. By targeting smaller companies, the fund aims to capture the greater appreciation potential often associated with the small-cap segment, while the dividend component helps provide a source of income and may lower overall volatility. The investment approach emphasizes value stocks within the small-cap universe, typically aligning exposure with benchmarks like the S&P Small Cap 600 or Russell 2000 Value Index. At least 80% of the fund’s net assets are allocated to small companies, making it a notable option for investors seeking diversification and growth from the underrepresented small-cap sector. The fund’s diversified portfolio spans a variety of industries, balancing the unique risks and opportunities presented by smaller, less-established firms within the U.S. equity market.
