Small Cap Growth Opportunities

Small Cap Growth Opportunities

Strategy highlights
  • Opportunistic allocations: We believe investing in conservative, high & consistent, and cyclical growth styles can help navigate through market cycles
  • Participate in secular trends: Can provide a tailwind through the business and investment cycle
  • Time-tested results: A history of risk-adjusted results from an actively managed, repeatable investment process

Strategy description

Small Cap Growth Opportunities is a diversified small-cap growth stock portfolio that employs a traditional growth strategy and focuses on companies that are poised to benefit from key secular growth trends.

Investment process

Integrated research platform combines the strengths of both fundamental and quantitative analysis to rate companies. Participation in secular investment trends that transcend the business cycle, while incorporating a valuation discipline, and employing an opportunistic investment approach capitalizing on high-quality companies that may be out of favor in the short term, are believed to help lead to consistent long-term out-performance relative to the benchmark.

Literature and resources

A separately managed account (SMA) is a private portfolio of actively managed, individual securities that may be customized to achieve an individual investor's unique objectives.

SMA accounts typically require a minimum investment of $100,000 for equity and asset allocation strategies and $350,000 for fixed income strategies, although the specific minimum account size varies by program and may be subject to change. The manager may waive these minimums based on client type, asset class, pre-existing relationship with client and other factors. For certain accounts, a negotiated minimum annual fee applies. Please consult with your Nuveen Advisor Consultant for applicable minimums.

Important information on risk

All investments carry a certain degree of risk, including possible loss of principal, and there is no assurance that an investment will provide positive performance over any period of time. It is important to review investment objectives, risk tolerance, tax liability and liquidity needs before choosing an investment style or manager. Equity investments are subject to market risk or the risk that stocks will decline in response to such factors as adverse company news or industry developments or a general economic decline. Growth style investing may fall out of favor and underperform other equity investments during given periods. Certain sectors or growth stocks may shift characteristics over a long market cycle and may not perform in line with stated benchmarks. Small-cap stocks are subject to greater volatility and liquidity risks. Foreign investments involve additional risks including currency fluctuations, political and economic instability, and lack of liquidity. These risks are magnified in emerging markets.
