Investment approach

The Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation through investment in large market capitalization companies that have durable fundamental strengths, exhibit capital discipline, attractive valuation and a Sustainable Cash Flow Advantage (SCFA).

Fund profile

We seek to identify companies that possess a SCFA through the use of our "3P" investment filter. Companies that exhibit SCFA typically have sustainable strategies or attributes that have the potential to drive sustainability-related outcomes because of their focus on their people, processes and/or products. We believe that these are the three things that companies can control – building a strong culture, focusing on operational excellence or diversification within a product or service range.

Characteristics exclude cash and equivalents and are derived from FactSet® and are applicable to the investor share class only.

Sustainable investment analysis may not be performed for every holding in the Fund. Sustainable investment considerations that are material will vary by investment style, sector/industry, market trends and client objectives. The Fund seeks to identify companies that it believes may be desirable based on our analysis of sustainable investment related risks and opportunities, but investors may differ in their views. As a result, the Fund may invest in companies that do not reflect the beliefs and values of any particular investor. The Fund may also invest in companies that would otherwise be excluded from other Funds that focus on sustainable investment risks. Security selection will be impacted by the combined focus on sustainable investment research assessments and fundamental research assessments including the return forecasts. The Fund incorporates data from third parties in its research process but does not make investment decisions based on third-party data alone. Mutual Fund investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible. Investments in foreign securities and ADRs entail certain risks not associated with investments in domestic securities, such as volatility of currency exchange rates, and in some cases, political and economic instability and relatively illiquid markets. The Brown Advisory Funds are distributed by ALPS Distributors, Inc. 1290 Broadway, Suite 1000, Denver, CO 80203.
