About NOSGX
The Northern Small Cap Value Fund is an actively managed mutual fund focused on generating long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of small-cap U.S. companies. The fund employs a proprietary, multi-factor quantitative stock selection model, targeting companies that are undervalued relative to their peers. Its investment approach emphasizes characteristics such as attractive valuation, strong price momentum, and robust earnings quality. Portfolio managers seek to outperform the Russell 2000 Value Index by tactically overweighting or underweighting certain stocks based on their analysis. With a highly diversified portfolio structure, the fund mitigates the risks associated with individual small-cap stocks or specific industries. Typically, at least 80% of its net assets are allocated to small-cap equities, making it distinctively oriented toward this market segment. The fund serves investors seeking exposure to the growth potential of smaller businesses and is suitable for those with a long-term investment horizon and higher risk tolerance. Northern Small Cap Value Fund plays a significant role as a vehicle for accessing the small-cap value equity space within the broader U.S. equity market.
