Poplar Forest Cornerstone Fund

Established on December 31, 2014 the Poplar Forest Cornerstone Fund is a balanced fund of U.S. focused equity and debt securities. The Fund may be suitable for long-term investors who seek a combination of both capital growth and preservation with less volatility than would generally be inherent in an all equity account.

Active Share

How can investors know whether a portfolio is active or passive? One metric is called “Active Share.” Active Share measures the degree to which a fund’s portfolio differs from the holdings of its benchmark. The higher the active share number, the more active and independent a portfolio is from its benchmark. An Active Share score of 100, for example, indicates that a fund has perfect independence from its benchmark; an Active Share score of zero indicates that the fund is more like a passive index fund. Active Share is not a predictor of future performance.
