The Dana Large Cap Equity Fund seeks to provide long-term appreciation of shareholders’ capital across various market cycles with lower risk than the S&P 500 Index, through a disciplined risk-controlled, relative value investment process. The Fund primarily invests in large-capitalization stocks that trade at a discount to the market with what the Adviser believes to be above-average future growth potential for earnings and dividends. The team utilizes a hybrid investment process of quantitative modeling and fundamental research to select securities for the portfolio. The portfolio is managed sector-neutral to the S&P 500 Index with the intention of specifically adding alpha through stock selection. This strategy has been used by Dana Investment Advisors in institutional products since 1999.
