Fund Description

The Fund invests mainly (at least, and typically more than, 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, if any) in equity securities, which can include stock, stock futures, rights, warrants or securities convertible into stock. The Fund is diversified and focuses on large- and medium-sized U.S. companies (companies with holdings greater than approximately $2.4 billion) whose equity securities are considered by the Fund’s Sub-Advisers to be value-oriented. Value-oriented investments are generally those that are trading at prices that the Sub-Advisers believe are below what the securities are worth or that may be out of favor with investors.These value-oriented investments typically have lower price-to-earnings ratios, lower asset valuations and/or higher dividend yields relative to the U.S. market as a whole.In pursuing its investment strategy, the Fund may at times focus its investments in one or a few particular economic sectors.The Fund may invest in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), which represent ownership of underlying foreign securities that are denominated in U.S. dollars, regular shares of foreign companies traded and settled on U.S. exchanges and over-the-counter markets and foreign equity securities (including non-U.S. dollar denominated securities). The Fund may invest in sponsored or unsponsored depositary receipts.The Fund may invest in forward currency contracts in order to mitigate market exposure. Forwards will only be utilized for defensive hedging purposes (i.e., hedging back to the U.S. dollar).The Fund may invest its uninvested cash in high-quality, short-term debt securities, which may include repurchase agreements and high-quality money market instruments, and also may invest uninvested cash in the GuideStone Funds Money Market Fund. To the extent the Fund invests in a money market fund, it generally is not subject to the limits placed on investments in other investment companies. Generally, these securities offer less potential for gains than other types of securities.The Fund uses a multi-manager approach, using two or more Sub-Advisers that each manages a portion of the Fund's portfolio under the oversight of the Adviser. Each Sub-Adviser uses different investment styles to identify securities it believes are undervalued or are generally out of favor with investors. The Adviser recommends sub-adviser selections to the Board of Directors of GuideStone Funds and determines allocations of Fund assets among Sub-Advisers based on a variety of qualitative and quantitative factors in an attempt to maximize return across the entire portfolio while minimizing risk to the extent possible. Buy and sell decisions are made at the discretion of each individual Sub-Adviser with regard to the portion of the Fund’s portfolio that it manages in accordance with its investment strategies and processes.In accordance with the Adviser’s Christian values, the Fund does not invest in any company that is publicly recognized(as determined by GuideStone Financial Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention (“GuideStone Financial Resources”)) for offering products or services that are incompatible with the Christian values of GuideStone Financial Resources, including,but not limited to, those involving abortion, sexual immorality,alcohol, tobaccoorgambling.The Fund maynot be able to takeadvantage of certain investment opportunities due to these restrictions.
