Fund Description
The Fund invests in financial instruments that ProFund Advisors believes, in combination, should track the performance of the Index.The Index is constructed and maintained by FTSE Russell. The Index is a measure of small-cap U.S. stock market performance. It is a market capitalization-weighted index containing approximately 2,000 of the smallest companies in the Russell 3000® Index, or approximately 7% of the total market capitalization of the Russell 3000® Index, as of June 30, 2023. The Russell 3000® Index includes approximately 3,000 of the largest companies in the U.S., representing approximately 96% of the investable U.S. equity market, as of June 30, 2023. More information about the Index is published under the Bloomberg ticker symbol “RTY.”Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its total assets in component securities of the Index or in instruments with similar economic characteristics.The Fund will invest principally in the financial instruments listed below.•Equity Securities — Common stock issued by public companies.•Derivatives — Financial instruments whose value is derived from the value of an underlying asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, ETFs, interest rates or indexes. The Fund invests in derivatives in order to gain exposure to the Index. These derivatives principally include:○Swap Agreements — Contracts entered into primarily with major global financial institutions for a specified period ranging from a day to more than one year. In a standard swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange or “swap” payments based on the change in value of an underlying asset or benchmark. For example, two parties may agree to exchange the return (or differentials in rates of returns) earned or realized on a particular investment or instrument.○Futures Contracts — Standardized contracts that obligate the parties to buy or sell an asset at a predetermined price and date in the future.•Money Market Instruments — The Fund expects that any cash balances maintained in connection with its use of derivatives will typically be held in high quality, short-term money market instruments, for example:○U.S. Treasury Bills — U.S. government securities that have initial maturities of one year or less, and are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government.○Repurchase Agreements — Contracts in which a seller of securities, usually U.S. government securities or other money market instruments, agrees to buy the securities back at a specified time and price.ProFund Advisors uses a mathematical approach to investing in which it determines the type, quantity and mix of investment positions that it believes, in combination, the Fund should hold to produce returns consistent with its investment objective. The Fund seeks to remain fully invested at all times in financial instruments that, in combination, provide exposure consistent with the investment objective, without regard to market conditions, trends or direction. However, the Fund may invest in or gain exposure to only a representative sample of the securities in the Index or to securities not contained in the Index or in financial instruments, with the intent of obtaining exposure consistent with the investment objective.Please see “Investment Objectives, Principal Investment Strategies and Related Risks” in the Fund’s Prospectus for additional details.
