Seeks Capital Appreciation Through Socially Responsible Opportunities
XXXXXXXXX
The Gabelli SRI Fund seeks to provide investors with a socially responsible investment SRI vehicle option that still maintains relatively high capital appreciation. The Fund excludes companies that derive 10% or more of their revenues from tobacco, cannabis, alcohol, gambling, or weapons, and is diversified across a multitude of industries. The primary focus is to identify companies that are selling at substantial discounts to their intrinsic or Private Market Values (PMV) and to achieve risk-adjusted returns over the long-term.
The Fund seeks to provide capital appreciation while employing certain SRI criteria within a fundamental stock selection process.
Purpose-driven Investments: By combining financial growth with ethical values, the Fund empowers investors to align their portfolios with a positive impact on society while pursuing strong returns.
Deep and Disciplined: The Fund utilizes our Private Market Value with a Catalyst™ approach to determine the price a strategic buyer would be willing to pay for the entire company and potential catalysts, such as buyouts or management changes, that could surface the unlocked value of the company.

The Fund’s share price will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Fund’s portfolio securities.

Consequently, you can lose money by investing in the Fund.
Standard deviation is a statistical measure of the volatility of a fund’s returns. Beta measures a fund’s risk relative to the S&P 500 Index which, by definition, has a beta of 1.00. If a fund’s beta is less than 1.00, the fund is considered less risky than the market. Alpha is a measure of a fund’s actual returns and expected performance, given its level of risk (as measured by beta). Upside/downside capture ratio show you whether a given fund has outperformed, gained more or less than, a broad market benchmark during periods of market strength and weakness, and if so, by how much. R-squared is a statistic that indicates how much of a fund’s fluctuations were attributable to movements of the fund’s benchmark index.

By concentrating in a small number of investments, the Fund’s risks are increased because each investment has a greater effect on the Fund’s performance than a fund which is more broadly diversified in a greater number of holdings. Investing in foreign securities involves risks not ordinarily associated with investment in domestic issues including currency fluctuations, economic, and political risks. The Fund invests substantially all of its assets in the securities of companies that meet its socially responsible and sustainability criteria. As a result, the Fund may forego opportunities to buy certain securities when it might otherwise be advantageous for it to do so, or may sell securities when it might otherwise be disadvantageous for it to do so. Not FDIC Insured. Not Bank Guaranteed. May Lose Value.
