Fund DescriptionsInternational Value Fund
This Fund is managed by RE Advisers Corporation and subadvised by Mercator Asset Management, L.P. Mercator manages international stock accounts for numerous corporate and public pension plans. Mercator's investment approach is to identify attractive, undervalued securities traded in stock markets outside the U.S. that have good earnings prospects.
Portfolio manager Jim Chaney explains, “Mercator uses screens based on historical data and segregates several hundred stocks in its proprietary database. The stocks in the universe are then ranked from most to least attractive. The most highly attractive stocks would then be subject to fundamental analysis, which seeks to validate projected financial data and considers company, industry, and macro factors.”
Under normal market conditions, the International Value Fund invests at least 80% of its assets primary in at least three countries, not including the United States. The Fund may invest in securities of issuers of any capitlization. From time to time, the Fund may invest in a relatively limited number of issuers; therefore, it may be subject to greater risk than other mutual funds having a greater number of holdings.
The Fund is suitable for those who want an investment that has the potential to deliver higher returns and have time to recover from a possible setback in the stock market. Also, investors in this Fund should be aware that international investing may involve special risks, such as currency risk and political risk.
