Can smaller be stronger?

T. Rowe Price Funds SICAV - US Smaller Companies Equity Fund

The US small and mid-cap universe represents a diverse mix of businesses – from established industry leaders to new and innovative “micro-caps” – whose strengths often remain underappreciated, or even unknown, by the broader investment community.

Three reasons to consider this fund

Opportunity:

We look for underfollowed companies possessing attractive fundamentals where identification of a “value creation” catalyst is key.

Flexibility: 

We seek to invest in the most attractive opportunities across the small-/mid-cap universe from deep value to aggressive growth companies.

Diversification:

The portfolio maintains a blend of value and growth stocks, broadly diversified among sectors and industries seeking to limit volatility.

When investing in funds, certain risks apply, which include those specific to equities, geographic concentration and small and mid‑cap stocks. For a full list of risks applicable to this fund, please refer to the prospectus.

US Smaller Companies Equity

An actively managed, widely diversified portfolio of around 150 to 200 smaller cap companies in the US, with a core style orientation that maintains broad exposure to both growth and value stocks.

Small and mid‑cap – Small and mid‑size company stock prices can be more volatile than stock prices of larger companies.

General risks: Conflicts of Interest The investment manager's obligations to a fund may potentially conflict with its obligations to other investment portfolios it manages. Counterparty Counterparty risk may materialise if an entity with which the fund does business becomes unwilling or unable to meet its obligations to the fund. Custody – In the event that the depositary and/or custodian becomes insolvent or otherwise fails, there may be a risk of loss or delay in return of certain fund's assets. Cybersecurity The fund may be subject to operational and information security risks resulting from breaches in cybersecurity of the digital information systems of the fund or its third-party service providers. ESG ESG integration as well as events may result in a material negative impact on the value of an investment and performance of the fund. Inflation – Inflation may erode the value of the fund and its investments in real terms. Investment Fund – Investment Fund involves certain risks an investor would not face if investing in markets directly. Market Market risk may subject the fund to experience losses caused by unexpected changes in a wide variety of factors. Market Liquidity – In extreme market conditions it may be difficult to sell the fund's securities and it may not be possible to redeem shares at short notice. Operational Operational risk may cause losses as a result of incidents caused by people, systems, and/or processes. Sustainability Funds that seek to promote environmental and/or social characteristics may not or only partially succeed in doing so.
