The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the Fund for the time periods indicated and then redeem all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the Fund's operating expenses remain the same.

Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be:

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual Fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate was 53% of the average value of its portfolio.

Principal Investment Strategies

Under normal circumstances, the Tax-Managed Large Cap Fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in equity securities of large companies, including American depositary receipts (ADRs) and exchange-traded funds (ETFs). For purposes of this Fund, a large company is a company with a market capitalization in the range of companies in the Russell 1000 Index (between $317.20 million and $499.80 billion as of December 31, 2012) at the time of purchase. The market capitalization range and the composition of the Russell 1000 Index are subject to change. The Fund may also, to a lesser extent, invest in common and preferred stocks of small capitalization companies. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in foreign securities.


The Fund uses a multi-manager approach, relying upon a number of sub-advisers (each, a Sub-Adviser and collectively, the Sub-Advisers) to manage portions of the Fund's portfolio under the general supervision of SEI Investments Management Corporation (SIMC), the Fund's adviser. In managing its portion of the Fund's assets, each Sub-Adviser generally applies a growth-oriented, a value-oriented or a blended approach to selecting investments. Growth oriented managers generally select stocks they believe have attractive growth and appreciation potential in light of such characteristics as revenue and earnings growth, expectations from sell-side analysts and relative valuation, while value-oriented managers generally select stocks they believe are attractively valued in light of fundamental characteristics such as earnings, capital structure and/or return on invested capital.


The Fund seeks to manage the impact of taxes through the use of a Sub-Adviser that acts as an overlay manager implementing the portfolio recommendations of the Sub-Advisers. Each Sub-Adviser provides a model portfolio to the Fund on an ongoing basis that represents that Sub-Adviser's recommendation as to the securities to be purchased, sold or retained by the Fund. The overlay manager constructs a portfolio for the Fund that represents the aggregation of the model portfolios of the other Sub-Advisers, with the weighting of each Sub-Adviser's model in the total portfolio determined by SIMC. The overlay manager implements the portfolio consistent with that represented by the aggregation of the model portfolios, with limited authority to vary from such aggregation, primarily for the purpose of seeking efficient tax management of the Fund's securities transactions. The overlay manager may also, to a lesser extent, deviate from such aggregation for the purposes of risk management and transaction cost management. The overlay manager seeks to manage the impact of taxes by, among other things, selling stocks with the highest tax cost first, opportunistically harvesting losses and deferring recognition of taxable gains, where possible.

Principal Risks

Depositary Receipts Risk — Depositary receipts, such as ADRs, are certificates evidencing ownership of shares of a foreign issuer that are issued by depositary banks and generally trade on an established market. Depositary receipts are subject to many of the risks associated with investing directly in foreign securities, including, among other things, political, social and economic developments abroad, currency movements and different legal, regulatory and tax environments.


Equity Market Risk — The risk that stock prices will fall over short or extended periods of time.


Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs) Risk — The risks of owning shares of an ETF generally reflect the risks of owning the underlying securities the ETF is designed to track, although lack of liquidity in an ETF could result in its value being more volatile than the underlying portfolio securities.


Foreign Investment Risk — The risk that non-U.S. securities may be subject to additional risks due to, among other things, political, social and economic developments abroad, currency movements and different legal, regulatory and tax environments.


Investment Style Risk — The risk that large capitalization securities may underperform other segments of the equity markets or the equity markets as a whole.


Liquidity Risk — The risk that certain securities may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and the price that the Fund would like. The Fund may have to lower the price, sell other securities instead or forego an investment opportunity, any of which could have a negative effect on Fund management or performance.


Small Capitalization Risk — Smaller capitalization companies in which the Fund invests may be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic events than larger, more established companies. In particular, small capitalization companies may have limited product lines, markets and financial resources and may depend upon a relatively small management group. Therefore, small capitalization stocks may be more volatile than those of larger companies. Small capitalization stocks may be traded over-the-counter or listed on an exchange.


Taxation Risk — The Fund is managed to minimize tax consequences to investors, but will likely earn taxable income and gains from time to time.


Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund.
