About ASCGX
The Lisanti Small Cap Growth Fund is an actively managed mutual fund focused on achieving maximum capital appreciation by investing primarily in small-cap U.S. companies. The fund employs an aggressive growth strategy, typically allocating at least 80% of its net assets to equity securities of smaller, often lesser-known firms that are in early or transitional stages of development and demonstrate above-average growth prospects. Managed by Lisanti Capital Growth, LLC and guided by industry veteran Mary Lisanti, the fund emphasizes identifying companies poised for rapid expansion across a range of emerging sectors. This strategy targets the "small-growth" segment, which is characterized by higher expected earnings and sales growth but also greater volatility compared to larger, established firms. The fund’s approach involves a blend of top-down market analysis and bottom-up security selection to build a diversified portfolio within the U.S. small-cap universe. By focusing on the potential of up-and-coming businesses, the Lisanti Small Cap Growth Fund plays a significant role in offering exposure to the dynamic and innovative segment of the U.S. equity market.
