Managed Account Pools (MAPs) are unique mutual fund pools of securities specially designed to provide diversification to separately managed accounts. Because these pools are highly liquid, they enhance the ability of separately managed account portfolios to quickly and efficiently respond to changing market conditions.
Unlike the typical mutual fund, each MAPs has "zero" advisory fees. MAPs are available only in conjunction with Federated Hermes Separately Managed Accounts.
Total returns for periods of less than one year are cumulative.
After-tax returns are calculated using a standard set of assumptions. Actual after-tax returns depend on each investor's personal tax situation, and are likely to differ from those shown. The stated returns assume the highest historical federal income and capital gains tax rates. Return After Taxes on Distributions assumes a continued investment in the fund and shows the effect of taxes on fund distributions. Return After Taxes on Distribution and Sale of Fund Shares assumes all shares were redeemed at the end of each measurement period, and shows the effect of any taxable gain (or offsetting loss) on redemption, as well as the effects of taxes on fund distributions. These after-tax returns do not reflect the effect of any applicable state and local taxes. After-tax returns are not relevant to investors holding shares through tax-deferred programs, such as IRA or 401(k) plans, or variable annuities. The after-tax average annual total returns are based on the 37% tax bracket and include the 3.8% tax on net investment income.
There are no guarantees that dividend-paying stocks will continue to pay dividends. In addition, dividend-paying stocks may not experience the same capital appreciation potential as non-dividend-paying stocks.
Mutual funds are subject to risks and fluctuate in value.
The value of equity securities in the fund’s portfolio will fluctuate and, as a result, the fund’s share price may decline. Equity securities may decline in value because of an increase in interest rates or changes in the stock market.
Large-cap companies may have fewer opportunities to expand the market for their products or services, may focus their competitive efforts on maintaining or expanding their market share, and may be less capable of responding quickly to competitive challenges. The above factors could result in the share price of large-cap companies lagging the overall stock market or growth in the general economy, and, as a result, could have a negative effect on the fund's portfolio, performance and share price.
Mid-cap companies often have narrower markets and limited managerial and financial resources compared to larger and more established companies.
Product classifications noted at the top are Federated Hermes' internal classifications.
Current and future portfolio holdings are subject to risk.
The holdings percentages are based on net assets at the close of business on the date above, and may not necessarily reflect adjustments that are routinely made when presenting net assets for formal financial statement purposes. Because this is a managed portfolio, the investment mix will change.
