Segall Bryant & Hamill Global All Cap Fund Retail Class (WTMVX) focuses on a diversified investment strategy across global equity markets, targeting companies of all sizes. The fund leverages a disciplined research process to identify undervalued stocks, primarily in North America and Europe, while maintaining a flexible approach to asset allocation.
The fund generates revenue primarily through management fees based on the total assets under management. This model benefits from economies of scale as AUM increases, allowing for lower average costs per dollar managed. The fund's investment strategy is differentiated by its focus on both growth and value opportunities across global markets.
