About OCSVX
Optimum Small-Mid Cap Value Fund is a mutual fund designed to pursue long-term capital growth by investing in small- to mid-sized U.S. companies that are believed to be undervalued by the market. The fund leverages a dual-manager approach: LSV Asset Management employs quantitative models to screen stocks based on value and near-term appreciation potential, while Wellington Management Company utilizes a bottom-up, fundamental strategy to identify firms with robust free cash flows, attractive valuations, and proven management teams. This blend of systematic and fundamental analysis seeks to capture opportunities among companies that may be overlooked or misunderstood. The fund holds a diverse portfolio across various sectors, serving investors interested in the value segment of the small- and mid-cap universe. It plays a role in providing exposure to potentially underappreciated areas of the equity market, offering diversification benefits and the prospect of long-term returns tied to the performance of undervalued growth-oriented businesses.
