The objective of Manulife U.S. Mid-Cap Equity Fund is to provide above-average long-term, risk-adjusted returns by investing primarily in equities of U.S. mid-capitalization companies.
The fund is sub-advised by our partner Mawer Investment Management Ltd., who bring with them 35 years of experience investing in mid cap securities. Through deep dive security selection and a focus on only the highest quality securities, the fund actively seeks companies with the right balance of stability and potential growth to take their business to the next level. This approach helps to create a broad diversified portfolio of potentially wealth-creating companies with excellent management teams bought at discounts to their intrinsic values.

Note: U.S dollar and segregated fund versions are also available.
As we face another year of uncertainty, equity valuations across all markets will be challenged. Companies will have tough decisions to make, and so will investors. Diversifying from a passive U.S. large cap strategy into a selection of mid-caps could be prudent at this point—U.S. mid caps offer better value, and an active approach can help navigate uncertainty.
Unlike their large cap counterparts, most mid cap companies aren’t household names, so they tend to be overlooked by investors and analysts.
They’re also likely to be more established and profitable1 than small cap firms and they have a history of lower volatility.2
They can also offer significant pricing power, helping them power through inflationary environments.3
But perhaps the greatest benefit of mid caps is diversification. U.S. mid cap securities run the gamut of sectors, from IT and communications through to industrials and consumer staples, and everything in between. In a market led by just a few sectors and companies, U.S. mid caps can be your gateway to an entirely new opportunity set.
