The T. Rowe Price Integrated U.S. Small-Mid Cap Core Equity Fund - I Class is a mutual fund focused on delivering long-term capital growth. The fund primarily invests in equity securities of small- and mid-cap U.S. companies, allocating at least 80% of its net assets to this segment. Its portfolio construction relies on a balanced approach that integrates fundamental analysis with systematic quantitative models. This methodology guides both stock selection and risk management, aiming to identify and maintain positions in companies with favorable prospects while controlling for volatility and sector exposure. The fund spans a diverse array of industries—including industrials, technology, healthcare, real estate, and financial services—by holding shares in firms like Textron Inc, PTC Inc, and Tenet Healthcare Corp. Benchmarked against the Russell 2500 Index, it offers institutional investors access to a dynamic segment of the U.S. equity market, where smaller and mid-sized firms often present unique growth opportunities and higher return potential, albeit with increased market volatility compared to large-cap counterparts. The fund’s disciplined, quantitatively informed process positions it as a core equity holding within diversified portfolios seeking exposure to U.S. small and mid-cap equities.
