About MXMSX

Empower Small Cap Growth Fund Institutional Class is an actively managed mutual fund focused on achieving long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in small-capitalization U.S. companies. Under normal circumstances, the fund allocates at least 80% of its net assets to equity securities of small companies, defined as those within the market capitalization range of the Russell 2000 Index at the time of purchase. The fund's investment approach targets firms poised for above-average growth, spanning sectors such as technology, healthcare, consumer defensive, basic materials, and industrials. Managed by Empower Funds since its 2015 inception, the fund maintains a diversified portfolio with over 180 holdings and a moderate turnover rate of about 60%. With a competitive expense ratio of 0.84%, notably lower than the category average, the fund seeks to offer institutional investors cost-effective exposure to the growth potential of U.S. small-cap equities. Its assets under management are typically below the average for its peer group, a factor that can support nimble and targeted active management in the small-cap space.
