About BVALX

Brown Advisory Beutel Goodman Large-Cap Value Fund Institutional Shares is an actively managed mutual fund that focuses on long-term capital appreciation by investing predominantly in equity securities of large-cap companies. The fund applies a disciplined value investing approach, seeking to acquire stocks trading at significant discounts to their intrinsic business value, as estimated by the present value of sustainable free cash flow. Its strategy combines fundamental, bottom-up research with a rigorous risk management process and a preference for companies with strong balance sheets and quality growth prospects. The portfolio is typically concentrated, holding around 25 to 30 stocks, with the top 10 holdings often comprising a substantial share of assets. Notably, while the fund’s stated focus is large-cap stocks, it has shown some drift toward mid-cap exposure. Managed by a team led by seasoned portfolio managers, the fund may also allocate a modest portion—up to 20%—to foreign securities, usually via American Depository Receipts (ADRs). Designed primarily for institutional investors, it features a low expense ratio and aims for both capital growth and capital preservation within the value equity segment of the market.
