At any time, market prices might reflect noise or behavioral biases that create dislocations from real economic value, presenting an investment opportunity. Our investment process is designed to identify and exploit those market dislocations. The Large Cap Series information advantage comes from: Combining quantitative and fundamental disciplines A focus on behavioral finance and biases Rigorous vetting of ideas Leveraging BlackRock s global resources Our team by design combines diverse talent in both fundamental and quantitative research. The combination and culture leads to better data gathering, a better analytical framework and more rigorous vetting of ideas than either discipline alone. Fundamental insights are augmented by expert fluency in an integrated application of technical and quantitative skills. The research process seeks to create informational advantages by forming a constructive feedback loop to uncover biases of behavior or methodology in the market or ourselves. Current process for selecting investments in the portfolio in accordance with its stated investment objectives and policies.
