The Fund will employ a fundamental long-short real estate strategy that seeks to neutralize exposure to general stock market risk and volatility by taking long and short positions in real estate investments. The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its assets (net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in (i) long and short equity securities of issuers primarily engaged in the real estate industry, such as real estate investment trusts (“REITs”); and (ii) equity-like securities, including individual securities, exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and derivatives, giving long and short exposure to (i.e., economic characteristics similar to) issuers primarily engaged in the real estate industry. In selecting ETFs for investment, the Adviser will prioritize investments that align with and support the Fund’s overall strategy. The Fund will concentrate its investments in the real estate industry (i.e., invest more than 25% of its total assets in securities of issuers considered to be primarily engaged in the real estate industry).
The Fund will consider an issuer to be primarily engaged in the real estate industry if: (i) at least 50% of its assets, income, sales, or profits are committed to or derived from the ownership, construction, management, financing, leasing, brokering, or sale of residential, or commercial real estate, or the provision of products and services related to the real estate industry, such as building supply manufacturers, mortgage lenders, or mortgage servicing companies or (ii) a widely recognized industry classification system provider has given the company an industry or sector classification consistent with the real estate industry.
Equity securities in which the Fund may invest include common stocks, REITs, and other investment vehicles primarily engaged in the real estate industry, ETFs, and American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). The Fund may also invest in exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”), giving exposure to real estate markets. The Fund may take a long position by buying a security that the Adviser believes will appreciate. Alternatively, it may sell a security short by borrowing it from a third party to sell it later at a market price. The Fund will usually obtain exposure to short positions by entering into derivative instruments. Short positions may be used to hedge long positions or to seek positive returns where the Adviser believes the security will depreciate.
The Fund may dynamically adjust its long and short exposure to the real estate markets over time based on macroeconomic, industry-specific, and other factors. The Fund’s long-short strategy is designed to reduce its overall exposure to general stock market movements and produce returns that are uncorrelated to other major asset classes. The Fund may reinvest the proceeds of its short sales by taking additional long positions.
To enhance the Fund’s exposure to real estate markets and increase the Fund’s returns, at the discretion of the Adviser, the Fund’s long and short positions in equities may be combined with investments in derivatives. The derivatives in which the Fund invests include, among other derivatives, swap agreements (some of these instruments may be traded in the over-the-counter market). These investments will be used to obtain the Fund’s short exposure. They may also hedge the Fund’s portfolio, maintain long exposure to the equity markets, increase returns, generate income, or seek to manage its volatility.
In buying and selling securities for the Fund, the Adviser may apply its proprietary H-Factor Scores (“H-Factor”) methodology to its security selection process. H-Factor uses an algorithm rooted in actuarial risk principles to construct a portfolio with exposure to returns across sectors, styles, geographies, and asset classes. Using an actuarial-based approach, H-Factor aims to identify underpriced and overpriced securities and assign them an H-Factor score, which is the probability that the issuer will not deliver growth to support the securities’ current price. By assigning these scores, the Adviser seeks to avoid the overpriced securities and invests in the underpriced securities. The Adviser’s team of portfolio managers and analysts will make investment decisions based primarily on a relative value fundamental framework. A top-down approach to allocating the Fund’s assets among geographic regions and property sectors will guide these investment decisions. The Adviser will then select individual securities using a bottom-up approach, focused primarily on a relative value-oriented process that reflects the macro-level investment themes and a due diligence process that includes, among other analytical components, an assessment of issuer-specific factors such as management insight and strategic direction.
The Fund will sell investments when they no longer meet the Adviser’s investment criteria, market conditions change, to meet redemption requests, or close or unwind derivatives transactions.
