Strategy Narrative [Text Block]

The US Small Cap Fund primarily invests under normal circumstances in (i) exchanged traded funds (“ETFs”) that invest primarily in the equity securities of companies (“US Small Cap Equity Securities”) that are organized or operating in the United States and that, at the time of investment, have market capitalizations that are within the range represented in the Russell 2000 Index (approximately between $146 million to $5.7 billion) (the “U.S. Small Cap ETFs”), and/or (ii) derivatives on US Small Cap ETFs, backed by a portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments and Preferred Securities Instruments. The U.S. Small Cap Fund may also invest directly in U.S. Small Cap Securities and derivatives on U.S. Small Cap Securities.

 

“Fixed Income Instruments” will primarily consist of municipal bonds and municipal bond ETFs but may include non-municipal bonds, bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities as well as ETFs on such instruments. “Preferred Securities Instruments” consist of preferred securities of U.S. companies and ETFs primarily investing in preferred securities. The US Small Cap Fund may invest in U.S. and non-U.S. Fixed Income Instruments of any maturity or duration.

 

The US Small Cap Fund normally uses option contracts on US Small Cap ETFs and US Small Cap ETFs to attempt to equal or exceed the daily performance of the Russell 2000 Index (the “Benchmark”). The value of option contracts on US Small Cap ETFs as well as US Small Cap ETFs should closely track changes in the ETFs underlying indices. The US Small Cap Fund may also invest directly in common stocks and index derivatives, such as futures, options on futures, and swaps.

 

As derivatives tracking US Small Cap ETFs may be purchased with a fraction of the assets that would be needed to purchase the equity securities directly for the equivalent amount of exposure, the remainder of the US Small Cap Fund’s assets may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments. Kurv actively manages the Fixed Income Instruments and Preferred Securities held by the US Small Cap Fund in a tax optimized manner with a view toward enhancing the US Small Cap Fund’s total return without taking on excessive risk. Specifically, Kurv evaluates the universe of Fixed Income Instruments and Preferred Securities by estimating the after-tax income associated with each investment, and considering that income in light of the investment’s risk and its effect on the Fund’s overall portfolio. Kurv then selects and trades such investments with the objective of achieving a high level of risk-adjusted after-tax income.

 

Under normal circumstances, the US Small Cap Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes in US Small Cap Equity Securities, US Small Cap ETFs or derivatives on US Small Cap Equities or US Small Cap ETFs. For the purpose of the US Small Cap Fund’s 80% policy, a small capitalization company has a market capitalization within the range represented in the Benchmark at the time of purchase. The US Small Cap Fund will consider the investments of the underlying ETFs in which it invests, including US Small Cap ETFs, when determining compliance with its 80% policy. Additionally, for the purposes of complying with its 80% investment policy, the Fund will use the notional value of the derivatives it holds.

 

The US Small Cap Fund may invest, without limitation, in derivative instruments, such as options, including FLEX Options, futures contracts or swap agreements, subject to applicable law and any other restrictions described in the US Small Cap Fund’s prospectus or statement of additional information. The US Small Cap Fund may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment basis. Assets not invested in US Small Cap ETFs, equity securities of US Small Companies or derivatives on such instruments, may be invested in Fixed Income Instruments and Preferred Securities Instruments. The US Small Cap Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in high yield securities, including high yield ETFs (“junk bonds”) rated B or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), or equivalently rated by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”), or, if unrated, determined by Kurv to be of comparable quality. In the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, Kurv will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security.

 

 

With respect to the Fixed Income Instruments, the US Small Cap Fund may invest, without limitation, in securities denominated in foreign currencies and in U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers, except with respect to such investments, the US Small Cap Fund may only invest up to 10% of its total assets in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries (this limitation does not apply to investment grade sovereign debt denominated in the local currency with less than 1 year remaining to maturity, which means with respect to the Fixed Income Instruments, the US Small Cap Fund may invest in such instruments without limitation subject to any applicable legal or regulatory limitation). Emerging market countries include any country other than the countries comprising the MSCI World Index (currently, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Japan, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States).

 

With respect to the Fixed Income Instruments, the US Small Cap Fund will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 10% of its total assets. The US Small Cap Fund may also invest up to 15% of its total assets in Preferred Securities Instruments.
