High Quality Focus Mitigates Downside Risk

We believe that a focused portfolio of companies that can generate high returns on growth capital, possess sustainable competitive advantages, capitalize on secular growth opportunities and trade at a discount to intrinsic value, can produce attractive risk-adjusted returns over a full market cycle.*

 

Sustainable competitive advantage

We look for companies with an economic moat, which creates a barrier to the competition and can potentially allow a company to produce high rates of return on their reinvestment of capital over longer periods of time.

High returns on growth capital

Growth capital is capital a company uses to grow its business versus simply maintain it. A high return on growth capital is an indication that a company is using capital efficiently and has the ability to create shareholder value over the long term.

Secular growth opportunities

A company must not only have a track record of growth, but be able to sustain it. We seek companies in industries that have steady tailwinds, which may help to maintain growth under broadly slowing economic conditions.

 * A full market cycle is defined as a period of bull, bear, and bull periods generally lasting four to five years.

Attractive Risk-Adjusted Returns with Low Volatility

For growth investors who fear the effects of volatile markets, Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund offers an attractive track record of risk and reward.

A Word About Risk: Pioneer Fundamental Growth Fund

The market prices of securities may go up or down, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably, due to general market conditions, such as real or perceived adverse economic, political, or regulatory conditions, recessions, inflation, changes in interest or currency rates, lack of liquidity in the bond markets, the spread of infectious illness or other public health issues or adverse investor sentiment. The Fund may invest in fewer than 40 securities and, as a result, its performance may be more volatile than the performance of other funds holding more securities. Investing in foreign and/or emerging markets securities involves risks relating to interest rates, currency exchange rates, economic, and political conditions. 

The Fund’s adviser may integrate ESG considerations in its investment research process, which may mean forgoing some investment opportunities available to funds that do not consider ESG information.

Individuals are encouraged to seek advice from their financial, legal, tax and other appropriate professionals before making any investment or financial decisions or purchasing any financial, securities or investment-related product or service, including any product or service described in these materials.
