About PZVIX
Pzena International Small Cap Value Fund Investor Class is a mutual fund focused on long-term capital appreciation through investments in equity securities of small-cap companies located outside the United States. The fund primarily targets undervalued international stocks in the small- to mid-cap range, emphasizing companies that appear fundamentally sound but are trading at low price ratios and offer higher dividend yields, aligning with a value-oriented investment approach. Its portfolio spans diverse sectors such as consumer defensive, basic materials, technology, financial services, and industrials, with notable positions in firms like Origin Enterprises and Rexel SA. Classified within the foreign small/mid value category, the fund is designed for investors seeking exposure to global equity markets outside the U.S., with less than 20% of assets typically invested in U.S. stocks. The fund is actively managed, features a high turnover, and charges above-average management fees relative to its peer group, reflecting its specialized international focus and research-intensive strategy.
