Investments in small capitalization companies believed to be undervalued and that pay, or are expected to pay, a dividend.
XXXXXXXXX
The Fund intends to pursue its investment objective by investing in equity securities of companies with a small market capitalization and that currently pay, or are reasonably expected to pay, dividends to shareholders. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest no less than 80% of its net assets in “dividend-paying” common stocks and other equity type securities (including preferred stock, convertible debt securities and warrants) of “small cap” companies, which the Adviser currently defines as securities within the range of the Russell 2000® Value Index at the time of investment.
The KEELEY Small Cap Dividend Value Fund seeks capital appreciation and current income.
We focus our research efforts across a broad array of dividend-paying stocks. In evaluating the overall quality of a company, we view the investment universe in four distinct areas. Depending on company-specific valuations – as well as the current macroeconomic environment, we categorize equities into each of these groups: 1) Attractive, 2) Growers, 3) Solid-Steady and 4) High-Yield. From these four categories, fundamental research helps our team assess the sustainability of a dividend by analyzing the company’s cash flow, balance sheet and dividend history.
