Acadian’s investment approach employs structured stock and peer group valuation models, which are designed to capture a broad range of relevant characteristics such as value, earnings growth and price-related factors. Undervalued stocks will be purchased and overvalued stocks will be selectively short sold. The option will generally maintain a gross long exposure of 130% and a gross short exposure of 30% (130/30).
