DFA US Small Cap Fund Class F
The mutual funds managed by DFA Canada are available only to Canadian residents, through representatives authorized by us and affiliated with approved registered dealers.
The following is only a summary of the Fund. For a full description, please consult the Fund's prospectus.
The fundamental investment objective of the Fund is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in securities of small US companies. To achieve the Fund's investment objectives, Dimensional Fund Advisors will generally invest in a broad and diverse group of readily marketable common stocks of small US companies traded on an exchange or on the over-the-counter market. Dimensional Fund Advisors generally considers companies organized or having a majority of their assets in or deriving a majority of their operating income in the US, to be US companies.
Where practical, Dimensional Fund Advisors will seek to increase the after-tax value of an investment by managing the Fund in a manner that may defer the realization of net capital gains and reduce dividend income.
