Investment Strategy from investment’s prospectus
The investment seeks capital appreciation. The fund invests at least
80% of its net assets in equity securities (primarily common stocks)
issued by small-cap companies. It uses a value style of investing, which
means that it invests in small-cap companies that the fund's
subadvisers believe have good earnings growth potential, but which
the market has undervalued. The fund may invest in real estate
securities, including real estate investment trusts, and may invest up to
20% of its total assets in equity securities of foreign companies. It also
may invest in initial public offerings of small companies to capitalize on
the opportunity for growth.
Past name: Nationwide Multi-Mgr NVIT SmCp Val 1.
Category Description: Small Value
Small-value funds invest in small-caps with valuations and growth rates
below other small-cap peers. They tend to invest in manufacturing,
financial and energy sectors.
