Fund Objective
The Managers Small Cap Fund's objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation.
Fund Strategy
The Managers Small Cap Fund primarily invests in the common and preferred stocks of U.S. small-capitalization companies. These companies generally have market capitalizations less than $2.5 billion at the time of initial purchase. Normally, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in U.S. small-cap stocks. The Fund generally focuses on growing companies that are selling at attractive valuations. The Russell 2000 Growth Index is the benchmark for the Fund.
