BMED focuses on total return by providing exposure to the broad health sciences group of industries, from R&D to production, and distribution of medical supplies in different fields including: dental, optical or pharmaceuticals. It also involves healthcare providers including health facilities and hospitals or those that provide related administrative, management or financial support. The fund reaches into non-human health as well, such as those focused on the survival of plants and animals. Firms that increase crop yields, taste, nutritional content or improve pet health are considered. BMED will include firms with varying market capitalizations with bias to small- and midcaps that may include foreign non-USD-denominated securities. The fund may also hold REITs that own hospitals and IPOs. During temporary defensive periods, the fund may invest up to 100% of its assets in liquid, short-term investments and can enter in credit default swaps for risk management.
