“With the expectation of owning each portfolio business for five years or longer, we often describe our investment philosophy as a private buyer’s mentality to owning public equities.”

Sands Capital Management, LLC is an independent, staff-owned, global investment management firm with a singular focus on long-only growth equity investing. They exist to add value and enhance the wealth of their clients with prudence over time. Sands Capital’s investment strategies (and those of their affiliates) employ a fundamental, bottom-up research approach that aims to identify high-quality public and private growth businesses globally.
Clients include pension plans, endowments, foundations, corporations, mutual and pooled funds, charities, sovereign wealth funds, state and municipal government entities, Taft-Hartley plans, and private investment funds.
From time to time, certain fees and/or expenses have been voluntarily or contractually waived or reimbursed, which has resulted in higher returns. Without these waivers or reimbursements, the returns would have been lower. Voluntary waivers or reimbursements may be applied or discontinued at any time without notice. Only the Board of Trustees may modify or terminate contractual fee waivers or expense reimbursements.
There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the Fund will be achieved. Stock markets are volatile and equity values can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market and economic conditions. Investing in international and emerging markets poses special risks, including potentially greater price volatility due to social, political and economic factors, as well as currency exchange rate fluctuations. These risks are more severe for securities of issuers in emerging market regions. Since the Fund typically invests in a limited number of companies, an adverse event affecting a particular company may hurt the Fund's performance more than if it had invested in a larger number of companies.
