Overview Commentary Management Philosophy Process Performance

Fund Objective

The Managers Value Fund's objective is to achieve long-term capital appreciation through a diversified portfolio of equity securities. Income is the Fund's secondary objective.

Fund Strategy

The Managers Value Fund invests primarily in common and preferred stocks of U.S. companies. The Fund generally invests in medium and large companies, that is, companies with capitalizations that are within the range of capitalizations of companies represented in the Russell 1000® Value Index, the Fund's benchmark as of May 1, 2007 (formerly S&P 500 Index).

Investment Overview

The Managers Value Fund currently utilizes two independent subadvisors who each manage a portion of the portfolio: Jeffrey Shaw of Armstrong Shaw Associates Inc., hired in March 2000 and the investment team of Osprey Partners Investment Management, LLC, hired in September 2001.
