30 Asset class definitions from page 4: Growth Fund A diversified portfolio of stocks that has capital appreciation as its primary goal, with little or no dividend payouts. Portfolio companies would mainly consist of companies with above-average growth in earnings that reinvest their earnings into expansion, acquisitions, and/or research and development. Value Fund A stock fund that primarily holds stocks that are deemed to be undervalued in price and that are likely to pay dividends. Value funds are one of three main mutual fund types; the other two are growth and blend (a mix of value and growth stocks) funds. Income Funds A type of fund that emphasizes current income, either on a monthly or quarterly basis, as opposed to capital appreciation. Such funds hold a variety of government, municipal and corporate debt obligations, preferred stock, money market, and dividend-paying stocks. International Funds A fund that can invest in companies located anywhere outside of its investors country of residence. Also referred to as a foreign fund. Bond Fund A fund invested primarily in bonds and other debt instruments. The exact type of debt the fund invest in will depend on its focus, but investments may include government, corporate, municipal and convertible bonds, along with other debt securities like mortgage-backed securities. Small Cap Refers to stocks with a relatively small market capitalization. The definition of small cap can vary among brokerages, but generally it is a company with a market capitalization of between $300 million and $2 billion. Mid-Cap A company with a market capitalization between $2 and $10 billion, which is calculated by multiplying the number of a company s shares outstanding by its stock price. Mid cap is an abbreviation for the term middle capitalization. Cash Equivalents Investment securities that are short-term, have high credit quality and are generally highly liquid. Index Funds A type of fund with a portfolio constructed to match or track the components of a market index, such as the Standard & Poor s 500 Index (S&P 500). An index fund is said to provide broad market exposure, low operating expenses and low portfolio turnover. You cannot directly invest in a index. Exchange-Traded Funds ETF s A security that tracks an index, a commodity or a basket of assets like an index fund, but trades like a stock on an exchange. ETFs experience price changes throughout the day as they are bought and sold. Investment returns will fluctuate and are subject to market volatility, so that an investor s shares, when redeemed or sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Technology Fund A fund that invests primarily in technology based firms and the tech industries. Real Estate Investment Trust REIT s - A security that sells like a stock on the major exchanges and invests in real estate directly, either through properties or mortgages. Real estate investing (REIT) involves risks such as refinancing in the real estate industry, interest rate risk, lease terminations, and potential economic and regulatory changes. The value of the shares in the trust will fluctuate with the portfolio of the underlying real estate related investments. There can be no assurance that a secondary market for the REIT will be maintained by the issuer. The investment may be illiquid. Redemption price of a REIT may be worth more or less than the original price paid for units of the trust. Financial Sector A category of stocks containing firms that provide financial services to commercial and retail customers. This sector includes banks, investment funds, insurance companies and real estate. Utilities Sector A category of stocks for utilities such as gas and power. The utilities sector contains companies such as electric, gas and water firms and integrated providers. Guaranteed Account A brokerage account that has its margin requirements or losses guaranteed by the assets of another account. 28 \ HCB Positioning Life Insurance Opportunities
