investment strategy / process

The Allegiant Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund is managed through a team-driven, top-down process, with extensive credit research and portfolio analysis to mitigate risk. The Fund strives to provide current income exempt from both regular federal and Ohio personal income tax, consistent with liquidity and stability of principal, by investing in high-quality, short-term Ohio municipal debt securities in one of the two highest rating categories - or unrated securities of equivalent caliber.

Investment Risk

The dividend yield paid by the Fund will vary with changes in short-term interest rates. The value of debt securities with the Fund's portfolio may be affected by the ability of the issuer to make principal and interest payments.

For some investors, income may be subject to state and/or local taxes, and certain investors may be subject to the Federal Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT).  As of September 30th, 2008, the Fund does not invest in securities subject to the Alternative Minimum Tax. However, the Fund's managers maintain the option to change the Fund's composition by investing the Fund's assets in such securities. 

The Fund's focus on investments in securities of issuers located in a single state makes the Fund susceptible to economic, political and regulatory events that affect that state. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in the funds.
