Investment Approach

Investment Approach

LMCG Small Cap Growth Fund

LMCG believes that the small cap growth universe is inefficient and can be exploited by identifying a firm's unrecognized growth potential, which potentially is either misinterpreted or misunderstood but the market.

The Fund utilizes a fundamental bottom-up security selection process focused on revenue growth, margin expansion and strong balance sheets. For inclusion in the Fund's portfolio, management pays particular attention to identifying high quality companies with potential catalysts which when realized can capture better firm growth levels.
