About VISAX

Virtus KAR International Small-Mid Cap Fund Class A is a mutual fund focused on delivering capital appreciation by investing predominantly in equity securities of international small- and mid-cap companies. The fund allocates at least 80% of its assets to non-U.S. firms, targeting businesses with durable competitive advantages, strong financial profiles, and consistent growth histories. Its disciplined selection process emphasizes high-quality companies with solid balance sheets, profitability, and market-leading business models, while seeking to minimize risk through lower earnings variability and strong free cash flow generation. The portfolio is typically high-conviction, containing 30-60 carefully chosen holdings and employing a long-term, low-turnover investment approach. Managed by Kayne Anderson Rudnick Investment Management, the fund aims to provide attractive risk-adjusted, long-term returns for investors, playing a strategic role in globally diversified portfolios and particularly serving those seeking exposure to foreign small- and mid-cap growth opportunities.
