About LVAZX

LSV Emerging Markets Equity Fund Investor Class Shares is a mutual fund focused on providing long-term capital growth by investing in equities from emerging markets. The fund utilizes a quantitative investment strategy centered on a deep value approach, identifying companies whose securities appear undervalued yet have shown recent signs of improvement. By systematically analyzing fundamental value metrics and short-term appreciation signals, the portfolio seeks to uncover investment opportunities often overlooked by the broader market. The fund maintains broad diversification, typically holding more than 75 individual stocks and spanning a wide range of sectors and market capitalizations above $50 million, thus managing risk through its structural approach. Serving investors looking for exposure to emerging economies, the fund's holdings include common stocks, preferred shares, and depositary receipts. The Investor Class Shares require a minimum investment and charge an expense ratio reflective of access to these international growth opportunities. Since inception in 2019, the fund has played a role in facilitating access to the faster-growing regions of the global equity landscape, providing diversification and potential for capital appreciation within a broader investment portfolio.
