    • The fund has not had great success gathering assets up to this point with only $17.5 million under management, but has had solid results over its lifetime, with a 54.6% total return since inception and a 21.8% return so far in 1999.

    Schaff's investing style is relatively long-term for a sector that can often have funds with triple digit turnover rates. The annual turnover for the Berger Information Technology Fund of approximately 35% makes the fund more tax efficient than the typical technology fund.
