Our read on LSGR
CNot a benchmark hug: LSGR packs the Loomis Sayles growth team's quality-growth-valuation process into a book of roughly 20 to 30 US companies, run by people rather than a rules engine.
The Fund's stated aim is to achieve capital growth over the long term.
Why people hold it
- Concentrated by design: the fund holds about 20 to 30 US companies and is non-diversified, so the manager's best ideas actually move the portfolio.im.natixis.com
- A buy has to clear three gates at once: business quality, profitable growth, and a price the team views as a discount to intrinsic value. Patient, low-turnover work.im.natixis.com
- Easier to trade than much of its peer group: several hundred million in assets and moderate daily volume behind an active strategy launched in 2023.
Worth knowing
- Active conviction has a price tag: 0.67% a year, above the middle of this peer group. Funds measured against the same Russell 1000 Growth index charge less (ACGR 0.39%, FFOG 0.41%).
- Concentration cuts both ways. With a couple dozen non-diversified positions, one company's rough stretch lands squarely on the fund.im.natixis.com
- The stated aim is capital growth over the long term, not income, so this is not built as a payout sleeve.
