About BOPAX

The Sterling Capital Special Opportunities Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation through a concentrated, actively managed portfolio. The fund typically holds between 30 and 35 stocks, allowing for a high level of conviction in its investment choices. Its strategy emphasizes flexibility, enabling the fund management team to shift among different styles and market capitalizations—including large, mid, and small caps, as well as growth and value stocks—based on their assessment of macroeconomic trends and fundamental company analysis. The fund predominantly invests in domestically traded U.S. equities and U.S.-traded shares of international companies, including ADRs. A key feature of this fund is its disciplined approach to valuation, seeking stocks with below-average price-to-earnings ratios, above-average earnings growth, lower leverage, and strong returns on equity. With an active share of over 80% and an annual turnover of about 33%, the fund aims to capitalize on evolving market themes while maintaining its focus on quality and growth potential. The Sterling Capital Special Opportunities Fund Class A plays a significant role for investors seeking a concentrated, style-agnostic approach to U.S. and global equity exposure within a single vehicle.
