American Beacon Small Cap Index Fund

 

Portfolio information as of June 30, 2007

 

Investment Advisor

The Fund seeks its investment objective by investing all of its investable assets in the Master Small Cap Index Series, a portfolio of the Quantitative Master Series Trust, which is managed by BlackRock Advisors, LLC. BlackRock Advisors, LLC on behalf of the Series, has a sub-advisory agreement with BlackRock Investment Management, LLC.


Investment Style

The Fund invests primarily in common stocks of companies that comprise the Russell 2000® Index ("Russell 2000"). The Fund is not managed according to traditional methods of “active” investment management, which involve the buying and selling of securities based upon economic, financial and market analyses and investment judgment. Instead, the Fund utilizes a “passive” or “indexing” investment approach that attempts to replicate, before expenses, the performance of the Russell 2000. The Fund invests in a statistically selected sample of stocks included in the Russell 2000 and in derivative instruments linked to the Russell 2000.

The Fund intends to purchase investments so that the market capitalizations, industry weightings and other fundamental characteristics of the stocks chosen are similar to the Russell 2000 as a whole.
