About MASPX
BlackRock Advantage SMID Cap Fund, Inc. Institutional Shares is a mutual fund designed to provide long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in small- and mid-capitalization U.S. equities. The fund typically allocates at least 80% of its assets to companies that are components of, or have characteristics similar to, those within the Russell 2500 Index, capturing a broad segment of the U.S. equity market outside of the largest firms. Leveraging a technology-driven investment process, the fund seeks to identify opportunities across a diverse set of industries including financial services, industrials, real estate, technology, and consumer sectors. Distinguished by its low expense ratio among institutional share classes, it offers cost-efficient exposure to a blend of growth and value stocks, making it a significant vehicle for investors targeting the dynamic small- and mid-cap space. Managed by BlackRock’s experienced team, the fund plays a key role in portfolios seeking diversification beyond large-cap equities while tapping into the potential of emerging leaders within the U.S. equity market.
