About PSGCX

Virtus KAR Small-Cap Growth Fund Class C is an actively managed mutual fund focused on long-term capital appreciation through investments in U.S. small-cap growth companies. The fund's strategy emphasizes selecting businesses with durable competitive advantages, strong management teams, and lower financial risk profiles. It employs a disciplined and research-intensive process to identify companies that demonstrate consistent growth, high returns on capital, and solid balance sheets, with the goal of achieving attractive risk-adjusted returns. The portfolio is concentrated, typically holding 20 to 40 high-conviction positions, which allows for in-depth analysis of each holding and a low portfolio turnover rate. The fund aims to incur less risk than the broader small-cap growth segment by favoring companies with lower earnings variability and a low reliance on external financing. Managed by Kayne Anderson Rudnick Investment Management, the fund is recognized for its focus on quality-driven equity strategies and its lower volatility approach, making it a notable option within the small growth mutual fund category.
