Villere Equity Fund 

Under typical market conditions, the Villere Equity Fund dedicates at least 80% of its total capital—encompassing both net assets and any borrowed funds used for investment—to equity-related holdings. While its core focus is on acquiring common stock in a concentrated portfolio of approximately 20 to 30 enterprises, the fund also retains the flexibility to invest in preferred shares, rights, and warrants. Additionally, it may, on occasion, participate in initial public offerings (IPOs). The portfolio's international exposure is capped at 10% of assets, which may be invested in foreign securities via American Depositary Receipts (ADRs).
