About DFELX

Dimensional Enhanced U.S. Large Company Portfolio Institutional Class is an actively managed mutual fund designed to provide broad exposure to the U.S. large-cap equity market. Its primary objective is to achieve a total return that exceeds that of the S&P 500 Index, which it pursues by investing in a combination of S&P 500 Index futures, short-term fixed income obligations, and direct holdings in large U.S. companies. The fund also uses various index derivatives such as options and swap agreements to enhance portfolio efficiency and market exposure. Managed by Dimensional Fund Advisors since 1996, this fund typically allocates at least 80% of its net assets to large-cap securities or fixed income instruments overlaid by index derivatives. By maintaining a large blend style, it includes a diverse set of sectors and industries, reflecting the composition of the S&P 500. This approach positions the fund as a core holding for institutional investors seeking diversified participation in the performance of leading U.S. corporations, while aiming to deliver competitive risk-adjusted returns relative to traditional large-cap benchmarks.
