All six freshly reopened funds come in two share classes: Investor and Institutional. "Despite this year's volatile investment environment, our conviction in our long-term investment approach remains strong," Taylor states. "Time and again, Wasatch has found that difficult markets have highlighted the benefits of investing in high-quality growth companies with excellent management teams." "Wasatch remains financially strong and has not seen significant outflows. However, the opportunities currently available in the market warrent reopening the strategies to new investors," Taylor adds. "Rest assured that Wasatch remains resolute in its commitment to limiting capacity and will once again close the strategies well before asset growth impacts performance."
