Investment Philosophy

Our Multi-Management Approach to Investing

We believe that in addition to traditional investment approaches, such as diversification, asset allocation, and a long-term perspective, a multi-manager approach and investment style serve investors who are working to build retirement security.

In a multi-managed approach, managers with different but complementary investing approaches are selected and integrated within a single fund in proportions that are expected to optimize return relative to risk. We believe this not only increases diversification but also may improve the consistency of returns over time by eliminating reliance on the results of a single manager.

• Your MissionSquare Retirement employer retirement plan generally invests in MissionSquare  Funds, some of which invest in mutual funds that use a multi-management approach.
• MissionSquare Retirement's Retirement Health Savings Plans make available MissionSquare Funds, many of which use a multi-management approach.

Investors should carefully consider their own investment goals, risk tolerance and liquidity needs before making an investment decision. Investing involves risk, including possible loss of the amount invested. The Funds’ offering and disclosure documents include a complete summary of all fees, expenses, financial highlights, investment objectives and strategies, and risks, and should be carefully reviewed before investing.
