About ZSCIX

Zacks Small-Cap Core Fund Institutional Class is a mutual fund focused on achieving capital appreciation by investing primarily in U.S. small-cap companies. The fund employs a hybrid research process that integrates quantitative models—utilizing metrics such as earnings revisions and valuation criteria—with qualitative analysis to identify small-cap stocks with high growth potential while seeking to control risk. Its portfolio is broadly diversified, typically holding around 100 equity positions, and is heavily weighted toward small-cap growth and value stocks across various sectors, including industrials, real estate, healthcare, and financial services. The fund invests nearly all of its assets in equities, with minimal cash or fixed-income exposure, and maintains an active management style, as reflected by a turnover rate around 135%. Managed by Zacks Investment Management, the fund aims to outperform standard small-cap benchmarks and is designed for institutional investors seeking diversified exposure to the small-cap segment of the U.S. equity market.
