About DCCIX
The Macquarie Small Cap Core Fund Institutional Class is a mutual fund focused on delivering long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in U.S. small-cap companies. Adhering to a "small blend" investment style, the fund targets firms within the market capitalization range defined by the Russell 2000 Index, aiming to uncover opportunities often overlooked in the small-cap segment. The portfolio is managed by an experienced team employing a combination of fundamental, bottom-up research and risk-controlled portfolio construction, emphasizing stock selection over sector or factor biases. Typically, at least 80% of the fund’s net assets are allocated to small-cap equities, spanning sectors such as financial services, healthcare, technology, and industrials. Notable holdings often include diversified companies poised for growth with attractive valuations and strong cash flows. The fund is structured for institutional investors, offering a relatively low expense ratio within its peer group and annual dividend distributions. Its strategic approach and disciplined process position it as a core holding for investors seeking diversified exposure to the dynamic U.S. small-cap market.
