The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets, (defined as net assets plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) in ETFs managed by BlackRock Fund Advisors, LLC (BlackRock Underlying Funds). In addition, at least 80% of the Funds net assets (defined as net assets plus the amount of any borrowing for investment purposes) will be invested in BlackRock Underlying Funds that invest primarily in either or both U.S. and foreign equity securities of any capitalization. The balance of the Funds net assets will be invested in BlackRock Underlying Funds that may also invest primarily in either or both U.S. and foreign equity securities of any capitalization. Equity investments will include U.S. equity securities, foreign equity and emerging market equity securities The Fund considers emerging market countries to be those represented in the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. The Fund operates as a fund of funds.
In selecting BlackRock Underlying Funds and Other Underlying Funds to purchase or sell, on behalf of the Fund, Pacific Financial Group, LLC (the Adviser) utilizes information provided by BlackRock, including data and analysis about BlackRock Underlying Funds.
BlackRock Underlying Funds will invest primarily in equity securities of varying market capitalizations in order to obtain exposure to the broad equity market. The Fund utilizes macro-economic insight developed by the BlackRock Model Portfolio Solutions team. The Fund utilizes a dynamic approach to asset allocation driven by quantitative and qualitative assessments such as valuation, corporate earnings, factor rotation, sentiment, market outlook and economic trends and insights from policy experts. Although the Fund does not intend to focus its investments in any particular sector, its portfolio may be focused in certain sectors from time to time as a result of its investment process and indirectly through the holdings of the BlackRock Underlying Funds.
The Funds target allocation will be 100% equity investment exposure, with a target of 70% in global equities (as represented by the MSCI ACWI Index) and 30% in domestic equities (as represented by the MSCI USA Index). The MSCI ACWI Index is an index that tracks broad based global equity markets comprising of 23 developed countries and 25 emerging markets. The MSCI USA Index is an index that tracks the performance of large and medium capitalization segments of the US markets.
In addition, in managing the Funds level of investment risk, the Adviser utilizes RiskPro®, a software technology developed by ProTools, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser. Based on proprietary algorithms, RiskPro® provides an estimate of the range of gain or loss of a portfolio of securities over a forward-looking rolling twelve-month period. The higher the RiskPro estimate, the greater the level of volatility that the Fund may experience over a twelve-month period. RiskPros algorithms take into account, among other factors, the volatility of the portfolio over the prior twelve months; a comparison of the portfolios volatility over the prior twelve-month period, to the volatility of the S&P 500 Index; and the long-term volatility of the S&P 500 Index.
The Adviser utilizes RiskPro to manage the Funds volatility as a whole, and to assess the impact of the Funds investment in BlackRock Underlying Funds. In some circumstances, the Adviser may use RiskPro to identify specific BlackRock Underlying Funds in which to invest, on behalf of the Fund. For this Fund, there is no limit on the Funds maximum annual volatility. Consequently, in managing the Fund, the Adviser will permit the Funds potential total return, over a twelve-month period, as estimated by RiskPro®, to exceed a loss or gain of more than 30%. Depending on market conditions, the Funds potential gain or loss, as estimated by RiskPro®, may be below 30% from time to time. The use of RiskPro allows investors to evaluate whether the expected volatility of the Fund, as estimated by RiskPro over a forward-looking rolling twelve-month period, is aligned with the investors level of comfort with investment risk.
