About BUCGX
Vest US Large Cap 10% Buffer Strategies Fund Class C is a mutual fund designed to provide investors with capital appreciation while seeking to limit downside risk through an innovative options-based strategy. The fund primarily invests at least 80% of its assets in a portfolio of FLEX Options, which are customized, exchange-traded options linked to large-cap U.S. equity indices. These options are structured to replicate the returns of twelve distinct 10% buffer strategies, aiming to shield investors from the first 10% of losses during market downturns while still participating in potential upside gains. This fund’s approach is particularly notable for its focus on large-cap U.S. equities, offering exposure to leading companies while mitigating the impact of sharp market declines. It is non-diversified, emphasizing the specialized nature of its risk management technique. By employing these defined outcome strategies, the fund appeals to investors seeking a balance between growth potential and protection against equity market volatility. Its operational structure and strategy make it a unique participant in the options-based and risk-managed mutual fund sector.
