Brown Advisory WMC Japan Equity Fund - Institutional Class

Brown Advisory WMC Japan Equity Fund - Institutional Class is a mutual fund focused on generating total return by investing primarily in equity securities of companies that are either domiciled in Japan or conduct the majority of their economic activity there. The fund employs a valuation-driven strategy, seeking opportunities for value creation, downside risk mitigation, and value realization. Its investment approach is not constrained by traditional benchmarks and often has a bias toward mid- and small-cap Japanese companies, aiming for high active share and diversified sources of return. Managed by Wellington Management, the fund emphasizes thorough research and proactive engagement with company management teams to unlock value. It may also invest a portion of its assets—up to 20%—in companies outside Japan to enhance diversification. Institutional investors benefit from a competitive expense ratio, and the fund holds a diversified portfolio spanning key sectors such as technology, healthcare, consumer defensive, and financial services, reflecting the dynamic landscape of the Japanese equity market. The fund’s holdings and sector allocations are regularly updated to reflect evolving opportunities and risks in Japan’s corporate sector.
