About NMSCX
The Columbia Small Cap Index Fund Institutional Class is a passively managed mutual fund that aims to closely track the performance of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index. Its primary objective is to deliver total returns, before fees and expenses, that correspond to the movements of this benchmark, which represents a broad cross-section of U.S. small-cap stocks. The fund achieves this goal by investing at least 80% of its assets in common stocks included in the S&P SmallCap 600, using representative sampling and advanced technology to mirror the index’s composition and performance. Notable for its cost efficiency, the fund features a low expense ratio, providing institutional investors with broad exposure to the small-cap equity segment at a competitive price point. With hundreds of individual equity holdings, the portfolio is diversified across multiple sectors, helping to mitigate the idiosyncratic risks associated with small-cap investing. Launched in 1996, the Columbia Small Cap Index Fund Institutional Class plays a significant role in the financial market as a core building block for diversified portfolios seeking targeted exposure to U.S. small-cap equities.
