INVESTMENT APPROACH<br />

The aim of the <strong>SEI</strong> <strong>Growth</strong> <strong>70</strong>/<strong>30</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> is to provide long-term growth of capital and income primarily through investment<br />

in a diversified portfolio of equity and fixed income securities with a greater bias to equity securities to allow opportunity for<br />

capital growth. The <strong>Fund</strong> generally has a mix of <strong>30</strong>% fixed income securities and <strong>70</strong>% equity securities.<br />

The <strong>Fund</strong> seeks to accomplish its objective by investing in other <strong>SEI</strong> <strong>Fund</strong>s which utilize a Manager of Managers<br />

investment strategy that combines multiple specialist Portfolio Managers. Each Portfolio Manager is responsible for<br />

managing a portion of the underlying <strong>SEI</strong> <strong>Fund</strong> in accordance with a specific mandate, based on their specific area of<br />

expertise. Portfolio Managers are carefully selected using in-depth quantitative and qualitative research. Once appointed,<br />

they are subject to an on-going disciplined and rigorous monitoring process.<br />
