Gartmore Funds has launched a small-cap fund that will be managed by small-cap growth and small-cap value portfolio teams. Processing Content The Gartmore Small Cap Leaders Fund is available in retail and institutional share classes; its managers are to select companies with market capitalizations in the range of the Russell 2000 Index. The portfolio is part of Gartmore Funds' Leadership Series, concentrated pools of 25 to 70 securities covering large-cap, mid-cap, small-cap and global mandates. For the Small Cap Leaders Fund, the small-cap growth and small-cap value managers are to select 20 to 30 securities of companies they identify as leaders.
