About AVFIX
American Beacon Small Cap Value Fund Class R5 is an open-end mutual fund specializing in U.S. small-cap value equities. The fund is designed to achieve long-term capital appreciation and current income by investing at least 80% of its net assets in stocks of small market capitalization companies, as defined by the Russell 2000 Index—generally firms with market capitalizations up to $5 billion at the time of investment. Employing a multi-manager strategy, American Beacon leverages the expertise of five sub-advisors to enhance diversification, aiming to reduce portfolio volatility over time. This structure allows the fund to search for undervalued companies across a broad swath of economic sectors, including technology, financial services, energy, and industrials. The fund typically holds a large number of positions, with its top ten holdings accounting for around 13-14% of assets. With total assets exceeding $4 billion and an inception date in 1998, it occupies a notable role within the small value mutual fund category, offering investors exposure to smaller U.S. companies with historically lower valuations and moderate growth rates.
