Crawford Large Cap Dividend Fund
Product Overview
The investment objective of the Crawford Large Cap Dividend Fund is total return. Total return is comprised of both capital appreciation and income. The Fund invests primarily in common stocks of large capitalization companies that demonstrate a consistent pattern of earnings and dividend growth. Crawford Investment Counsel, Inc. utilizes a bottom-up approach to stock selection, focusing on company fundamentals. Crawford seeks high-quality companies with strong balance sheets, predictable earnings and cash flow growth, and a history of dividend growth. Crawford’s goal is to identify companies that the Advisor believes have market prices that do not reflect their true values and that have above-average total return potential.
