The Net Asset Value (after expenses) is calculated weekly, every Thursday.
The Montgomery [Private] Fund’s portfolio is built up stock-by-stock. As each company that meets the Fund’s criteria is added, the portfolio should exhibit characteristics the average value of which is superior to the broader markets. As a consequence, the portfolio should also demonstrate below-average characteristics for business risk.

A minimum initial investment of $1,000,000 is required. Montgomery Investment Management can waive this minimum at their discretion.

Generally, net income is difficult to predict, and the size of distributions may vary from year to year. There may be periods when net income could be negative and no distribution is made.
