About CFMDX
Clarkston Founders Fund Founders Class is an actively managed mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation. The fund primarily invests in U.S.-traded equity securities of medium-capitalization companies, typically within the range defined by the Russell Midcap Index at the time of purchase. Its investment advisory team, led by Clarkston Capital Partners, employs a proprietary “Quality Value” philosophy—seeking companies considered high quality due to factors such as favorable profitability, sustainable competitive advantages, and strong, capable management teams. The fund selects stocks believed to be undervalued relative to their long-term free cash flows, emphasizing a disciplined, research-driven approach. As a non-diversified fund, Clarkston Founders Fund Founders Class may allocate a substantial portion of its assets to a relatively small number of holdings, potentially increasing exposure to specific companies or sectors. The fund aims to minimize volatility and risk while focusing on long-term fundamentals, making it a significant player in the mid-cap equity segment of the mutual fund market.
