About BSCAX

The Brandes Small Cap Value Fund Class A is a mutual fund designed to seek long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of U.S.-based companies with small market capitalizations, generally defined as those with a market cap of $7.5 billion or less at the time of purchase. The fund employs a value-oriented investment strategy, targeting companies deemed undervalued by Brandes Investment Partners’ fundamental research process. It typically concentrates its portfolio in industrials, technology, energy, and consumer defensive sectors, among others, with the flexibility to invest over 20% in a single market sector if opportunities are identified. The fund may allocate up to 10% of assets to international securities or corporate fixed-income instruments, but combined exposure to these categories will not exceed 15%. With a net expense ratio of approximately 1.17%, the fund aims to deliver disciplined exposure to the small-cap value segment, offering diversification for investors seeking participation in the growth potential of smaller, undervalued U.S. companies.
