About COTZX
Columbia Thermostat Fund Institutional Class is a tactical allocation mutual fund designed to achieve long-term capital appreciation by dynamically investing in a blend of underlying equity and fixed-income funds.

By allocating at least 95% of its assets among a curated selection of Columbia-affiliated stock and bond mutual funds and ETFs, the fund offers diversified exposure to multiple sectors and market capitalizations, including large-cap, small-cap, and fixed-income instruments. The management team employs thorough research to select underlying funds believed to offer high quality and growth potential. With a below-average risk profile and a relatively low expense ratio for its category, the fund is positioned as a core holding for institutional investors seeking a dynamic yet systematic approach to asset allocation. Columbia Thermostat Fund Institutional Class has demonstrated competitive long-term performance in the tactical allocation category and manages over $1 billion in assets.
