Overview

  • We believe that a fundamental value approach to equity investing, which selects higher quality securities selling at substantial discounts to their underlying values and hold these stocks until their intrinsic value is reflected in the marketplace, can produce competitive returns over time.
  • The Strategy employs a bottom-up approach that seeks undervalued, higher quality stocks of well established companies.
  • We invest in stocks with earnings-growth potential over a three- to five-year period in excess of the expected growth appearing to be reflected in the current price.
  • Typical investment horizon is 3 to 5 years.

Why Amundi Pioneer?

Key features of the Amundi Pioneer US Large Cap Core Strategy include:

  • Fundamental, research-driven approach: We focus on the research of securities, which offer attractive risk/reward ratio through analysis of industry structure, business outlook and financials.
  • Focused on the long-term: Turnover has averaged less than 50% annually over the past 10 years.
  • Socially responsible investing: For almost 60 years, the portfolio managers have applied socially responsible investment screens to avoid tobacco, alcohol and gambling stocks. This conscientious style was built into the investment process by Philip L. Carret, the founder of Pioneer Investments, now Amundi Pioneer. The current portfolio management team carries on this tradition.
  • Dependable results1: The Strategy has paid an annual dividend in every year since its inception.
