The fund passively provides exposure to US large-cap stocks with growth characteristics. The underlying index screens the Russell 1000 for companies with higher I/B/E/S forecasts for medium-term growth and higher sales per share historical growth as compared to other companies in the index. The portfolio selection starts by ranking the stocks growth factors and book-to-price ratio (B/P), to produce a composite value score (CVS). In general, stocks with a lower CVS are considered as growth and are given proportional weights. While the fund is considered a large-cap fund, a portion of the portfolio is allocated to mid-caps due to its expansive Russell 1000 parent.
