Expense Example (Unaudited)    

 

For the Six Months Ended February 29, 2012

 

As a shareholder of a Fund, you may incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, which may include sales charges (loads) on purchase payments, reinvested dividends, or other distributions; redemption fees; and exchange fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees; distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees; and other Fund expenses. This Example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

 

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire six month period ended February 29, 2012 (9/1/11-2/29/12).

 

Actual Expenses

 

The first line of the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

 

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

 

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on a Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in a Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

 

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transaction costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transaction costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

The shareholders of record on the termination date may receive subsequent distributions pertaining to these receivables upon collection.

 

2.   Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements.

 

Use of Estimates—The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts

 

115


Table of Contents
Notes to Financial Statements (continued)    

 

of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

Investment Valuations—Listed equity securities are valued each trading day at the last sale price or official closing price reported on a national securities exchange, including NASDAQ. Securities listed on a foreign exchange are valued each trading day at the last closing price on the principal exchange on which they are traded immediately prior to the time for determination of Net Asset Value (“NAV”) or at fair value as discussed below. Equity securities without a reported trade, U.S. government securities, listed corporate bonds, other fixed income and asset-backed securities with maturities of 60 days or more, unlisted securities and private placement securities are generally valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked price as furnished by an independent pricing service. Fixed income securities which are not exchange traded are valued by an independent pricing service, taking into consideration yield, liquidity, risk, credit quality, coupon, maturity, type of issue and any other factors or market data the pricing service deems relevant. Fixed income securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase are valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair value. Investments in other open-end registered investment companies are valued at net asset value. The money market funds use the amortized cost method to value portfolio securities in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Act.

 

Securities or other assets for which market valuations are not readily available, or are deemed to be inaccurate, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Board of Directors (the “Directors”). The Directors have established a Pricing Committee, which is responsible for determinations of fair value, subject to the supervision of the Directors. In determining fair value, the Pricing Committee takes into account all information available and any factors it deems appropriate. Consequently, the price of securities used by a Fund to calculate its NAV may differ from quoted or published prices for the same securities. Fair value pricing involves subjective judgments and it is possible that the fair value determined for a security is materially different than the value that would be realized upon the sale of that security and the differences may be material to the NAV of the respective Fund or the financial statements presented.

 

Securities held in the Pyrford International Stock Fund, Lloyd George Emerging Markets Equity Fund and Pyrford Global Strategic Return Fund may be listed on foreign exchanges that do not value their listed securities at the same time each Fund calculates its NAV. Most foreign markets close well before each Fund values its securities, generally 3:00 p.m. (Central Time). The earlier close of these foreign markets gives rise to the possibility that significant events, including broad market moves, may have occurred in the interim.

 

The Pricing Committee may determine that a security needs to be fair valued if, among other things, it believes the value of the security might have been materially affected by events occurring after the close of the market in which the security was principally traded, but before the time for determination of the NAV (“a subsequent event”). A subsequent event might include a company-specific development (for example, announcement of a merger that is made after the close of the foreign market), a development that might affect an entire market or region (for example, weather related events) or a potentially global development (such as a terrorist attack that may be expected to have an effect on investor expectations worldwide). The Funds have retained an independent fair value pricing service to assist in fair valuing foreign securities. The service utilizes statistical data based on historical performance of securities, markets, and other data in developing factors used to estimate a fair value.

 

Repurchase Agreements—The Funds’ policy requires the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank’s vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Funds to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement’s collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement, including accrued interest.

 

The Funds will enter into repurchase agreements only with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker-dealers, which are deemed by the Funds’ adviser (or sub-advisers) to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Directors. Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Funds could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities.

 

Investment Income, Expenses, and Distributions—Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair market value.

 

The Funds offer multiple classes of shares which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Funds. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in class-specific expenses. Income, non-class specific expenses, and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based on the value of total shares outstanding of each class without distinction between share classes. Expenses attributable to a particular class of shares, such as shareholder servicing fees, are allocated directly to that class.

 

Premium and Discount Amortization/Paydown Gains and Losses—Premiums and discounts on fixed income securities are amortized/accreted for tax and financial statement purposes. Gains and losses realized on principal payments of mortgage-backed securities (paydown gains and losses) are classified as part of net investment income.

 

Federal Income Taxes—The policies and procedures of the Funds require compliance with Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of their income. Accordingly, no provisions for federal tax are necessary. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country’s tax rules and rates.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions—The Funds may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Funds record when-issued securities on the trade date and maintain security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the commitment to purchase securities. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked-to-market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

 

Futures Contracts—Certain Funds may purchase futures contracts to manage cash flows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a “variation margin” account. Daily, the Fund receives from, or pays to, the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

 

During the period ended February 29, 2012, the Government Income Fund had an average of 12 short and 22 long treasury futures contracts outstanding. Enclosed in the Statements of Operations, the Intermediate Tax-Free Fund and Government Income Fund had $13,291 and $91,341 in net realized losses on treasury futures contracts, respectively, and $0 and $18,326 change in unrealized depreciation on treasury futures contracts, respectively, for the period ended February 29, 2012. At February 29, 2012, the following Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:

Options Contracts—Certain Funds may write covered call and put options on futures, swaps, securities, or currencies a Fund owns, or in which it may invest to create investment exposure consistent with their investment objectives. Writing put options tends to increase a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Writing call options tends to decrease a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. When a Fund writes a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option written. These liabilities are reflected as written options outstanding in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Payments received, or made, from writing options with premiums to be determined on a future date are reflected as such on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. Premiums received from writing options which expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying future, swap, security or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. A Fund, as a writer of an option, has no control over whether the underlying future, swap, security, or currency may be sold (called) or purchased (put) and, as a result, bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the future, swap, security, or currency underlying the written option. The risk exists that a Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid market.

 

Certain Funds may also purchase put and call options. Purchasing call options tends to increase a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease a Fund’s exposure to the underlying instrument. A Fund pays a premium, which is included in a Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options which expire are treated as realized losses. The risk associated with purchasing put and call options is limited to the premium paid. Premiums paid for purchasing options which are exercised or closed are added to the amounts paid or offset against the proceeds on the underlying future, swap, security, or currency transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.

 

During the period ended February 29, 2012, the Large-Cap Value Fund had average written and purchased options outstanding of 67 contracts and 320 contracts, respectively while the Mid-Cap Value Fund had average purchased options outstanding of 400 contracts. Enclosed in the Statements of Operations, the Large-Cap Value Fund had $25,232 in net realized losses and $19,936 in net change on unrealized appreciation on all option contracts, while the Mid-Cap Value Fund had $289,395 in net realized losses on all option contracts for the period ended February 29, 2012.

Foreign Exchange Contracts—Certain Funds may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts as a way of managing foreign exchange rate risk. Certain Funds may enter into these contracts for the purchase or sale of a specific foreign currency at a fixed price on a future date as a hedge or cross hedge against either specific transactions or portfolio positions. The objective of certain Funds’ foreign currency hedging transactions is to reduce the risk that the U.S. dollar value of these Funds’ foreign currency denominated securities will decline in value due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. All foreign currency exchange contracts are “marked-to-market” daily at the applicable translation rates resulting in unrealized gains or losses. Realized gains or losses are recorded at the time the foreign currency exchange contract is offset by entering into a closing transaction or by the delivery or receipt of the currency. Risk may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.

 

During the period ended February 29, 2012, the Pyrford International Stock Fund, Pyrford Global Strategic Return Fund and Monegy High Yield Bond Fund entered into 1, 2 and 1 short forward foreign currency exchange contracts, respectively. Enclosed in the Statements of Operations, the Pyrford International Stock Fund, Pyrford Global Strategic Return Fund and Monegy High Yield Bond Fund had $0, $0 and $0 in net realized gains, respectively, and $346,930, $4,167 and $38,976 change in net unrealized depreciation, respectively, on forward foreign currency exchange contacts.

Foreign Currency Translation—The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such currencies against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation. Purchases and sales of securities, income, and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange quoted on the respective date that such transactions are recorded. The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

 

Reported net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales of portfolio securities, sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Funds’ books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities at each reporting period, resulting from changes in the exchange rate.

 

Restricted Securities—Restricted securities are securities that may be resold only upon registration under federal securities laws or in transactions exempt from such registration. In some cases, the issuer of restricted securities has agreed to register such securities for resale, at the issuer’s expense either upon demand by the Funds or in connection with another registered offering of the securities. Many restricted securities may be resold in the secondary market in transactions exempt from registration. Such restricted securities may be determined to be liquid under criteria established by the Directors. The restricted securities are valued at the price provided by dealers in the secondary market or, if no market prices are available, the fair value as determined in good faith using methods approved by the Directors. The money market funds’ restricted securities are valued at amortized cost in accordance with Rule 2a-7 under the Act.

  (1) Security represents a quarterly floating rate funding agreement with a 90 day put feature whose maturity is extendable per the discretion of the Adviser.

 

Redemption Fees—The Funds (other than the Government Money Market Fund, Tax-Free Money Market Fund, Prime Money Market Fund, and effective February 8, 2012, the Ultra Short Tax-Free Fund) impose a 2.00% redemption fee to shareholders who redeem shares held for 30 days or less. All redemption fees are recorded by the Funds as paid-in-capital.

 

Securities Lending—Certain Funds participate in a securities lending program, providing for the lending of corporate bonds, equity, and government securities to qualified brokers. The Funds receive cash as collateral in return for the securities and record a corresponding payable for collateral due to the respective broker. The amount of cash collateral received is maintained at a minimum level of 100% of the prior day’s market value on securities loaned. Investment transactions, including securities on loan and the related collateral, are recorded on a trade date basis, and therefore the Value of Securities Loaned and Payable on Collateral Due to Brokers in the table below may not accurately reflect the operational nature of the securities lending program. The Funds’ securities on loan were appropriately collateralized at February 29, 2012. Collateral is reinvested in short-term securities including overnight repurchase agreements, commercial paper, master notes, floating rate corporate notes (with at least quarterly reset rates), and money market funds. The valuation of collateral is discussed in “Investment Valuations” in Note 2 of the Notes to the Financial Statements. When a Fund lends its portfolio securities, it is subject to the risk that it may not be able to get the portfolio securities back from the borrower on a timely basis, in which case the Fund may lose certain investment opportunities. A Fund also is subject to the risks associated with the investments of cash collateral received from the borrower.

 

Cash collateral received as part of the securities lending program was jointly pooled and invested in the following securities as of February 29, 2012 (1):

Commitments and Contingencies—In the normal course of business, the Corporation enters into contracts that provide general indemnifications to other parties. The Corporation’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Corporation that have not yet occurred. However, the Corporation has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

 

Other—Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net realized gains and losses on securities are computed on the basis of specific security lot identification.

 

3.   Fair Value Measurements

Fair Valuation Measurements and Disclosures defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with GAAP, and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. It establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between (1) market participant assumptions developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting issuer (observable inputs), and (2) the reporting issuer’s own assumptions about market participant assumptions developed based on the best information available in the circumstances (unobservable inputs). It also provides guidance on determining when there has been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity for an asset or liability, when a transaction is not orderly, and how that information must be incorporated into fair value measurement.

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical securities. An active market for the security is a market in which transactions occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis. Common & preferred stocks, options & futures contracts, and mutual funds are generally categorized as Level 1.

 

Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). Fixed income securities, repurchase agreements, cash collateral received as part of the securities lending program, and securities valued by an independent fair value pricing service are generally categorized as Level 2.

 

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs, including management’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments.

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market holdings are valued using amortized cost under Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of the holding, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such holdings are reflected as Level 2.

 

Following is a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determining value:

(1) All sub-categories within Common Stocks and Preferred Stocks represent Level 1 evaluation status.
(2) As described in Note 2, the values of certain equity securities listed or traded on foreign security exchanges may be valued by an independent fair value pricing service on any day when a significant change in value of U.S. traded securities occurs, as measured by the Russell 1000 Index. As a result, some securities were fair valued by the service and categorized in Level 2 throughout the period ended February 29, 2012. Such securities would represent the only significant transfer between each of the three levels. The Funds recognize transfers between levels of the hierarchy on the date of transfer. As of February 29, 2012, none of the securities required such valuation and all are categorized in Level 1.
(3) Other financial instruments are derivative instruments not reflected in the Schedule of Investments, such as futures, written options, forwards and swap contracts, which are valued at the unrealized appreciation/depreciation on the investment.

 

Following is a reconciliation of assets in which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used in determing value:

Shareholder Services Fee—Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with BMO Funds U.S. Services (“U.S. Services”), a division of M&I Trust Company, NA (“M&I Trust”), each Fund pays U.S. Services at the annual rate of 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Fund’s Investor and Advisor Class shares for the period. The fee paid to U.S. Services is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. U.S. Services may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. U.S. Services can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

 

Administrative Fee—M&I Trust, under the Administrative Services Agreement, provides the Funds with administrative personnel and services. The fee paid to M&I Trust is based on each Fund’s average daily net assets with respect to the Equity Funds and Fixed Income Funds and the aggregate average daily net assets of all the Money Market Funds as listed below.

The Prime Money Market Advisor Class terminated as of December 19, 2011.

 

Securities Lending—The Funds pay a portion of net revenue from securities lending to M&I Trust for its services as the securities lending agent.

Interfund Borrowing and Lending—The Funds participate in an interfund lending program. This program allows the Funds to lend cash to and/or borrow cash from other Funds for temporary purposes, although the Money Market Funds cannot participate as borrowers. The program is subject to a number of conditions, including the requirement that the interfund loan rate to be charged to the Funds under the program is (i) more favorable to the lending Fund than the rate it could otherwise obtain from investing cash in repurchase agreements or purchasing shares of a Money Market Fund and (ii) more favorable than the lowest interest rate at which bank short-term loans would be available to the Funds. In addition, a Fund may participate in the program only if its participation is consistent with the Fund’s investment policies and limitations. The Directors are responsible for the oversight of the interfund lending program. The Large-Cap Growth Fund, Mid-Cap Value Fund and TCH Core Plus Bond Fund utilized this program as borrower, and the Prime Money Market Fund as lender for the period ended February 29, 2012. No interfund borrowing or lending balances existed as of February 29, 2012. For the period ended February 29, 2012, the average daily lending balances were $23, $42 and $131,219, and the weighted average interest rates were 0.705%, 0.705%, and 0.752%, respectively.

 

Investment Transactions—The Funds, on occasion, may purchase or sell a security with another Fund or client of the Adviser pursuant to procedures approved by the Directors.

 

General—Certain of the Officers and Directors of the Corporation are also Officers and Directors of one or more of the above companies, which are affiliates of the Corporation. None of the Fund officers or interested directors receives any compensation from the Funds.

6.   Line of Credit

The Corporation, on behalf of the respective Funds, entered into a $15,000,000 unsecured, committed revolving line of credit (“LOC”) agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company. The LOC was made available for extraordinary or emergency purposes, primarily for financing redemption payments. Borrowings are charged interest at a rate of 1.250% per annum over the greater of the Federal Funds rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The LOC includes a commitment fee of 0.125% per annum on the daily unused portion which during the fiscal year was paid by the Adviser. The Tax-Free Money Market Fund utilized the LOC during the period ended February 29, 2012. No borrowings were outstanding under the LOC at February 29, 2012. For the period ended February 29, 2012, the Tax-Free Money Market Fund’s average daily loan balance outstanding was $1,353, and the weighted average interest rate was 1.398%.

8.   Federal Tax Information

The timing and character of income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are due in part to differing treatments for net operating loss, foreign currency transactions, paydown gain or loss, market discount accretion, premium amortization and expiring capital loss carryforwards.

 

To the extent that differences arise that are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts, on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, based on their Federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification and had no impact on the net asset value of the Funds.

 

The Funds complied with the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes which provides guidance for how uncertain tax provisions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes requires the affirmative evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Funds’ tax returns to determine whether it is “more-likely-than-not,” (i.e., greater than 50 percent) of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold may result in a tax benefit or expense in the current year.

 

134


Table of Contents
    BMO Funds

 

 

Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes requires management of the Funds to analyze all open tax years, as defined by the statutes of limitations, for all major jurisdictions, which includes federal and certain states. Open tax years are those that are open for exam by the taxing authorities (i.e., the last four tax years and the interim tax period since then). The Funds, have no examinations in progress. For all open tax years and all major taxing jurisdictions through the end of the reporting period, management of the Funds reviewed all tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the preparation of the Funds’ tax returns and concluded that Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes resulted in no effect on the Funds’ reported net assets or results of operations as of and during the period ended February 29, 2012. Management of the Funds also is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of recognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

 

The difference between book basis and tax basis unrealized appreciation/depreciation is attributable in part to the tax deferral of losses on wash sales, the realization for tax purposes of unrealized gains on investments in passive foreign investment companies and the discount accretion/premium amortization of debt securities.

At August 31, 2011, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards, which reduce the Funds’ taxable income arising from future net realized gains on investments, if any, to the extent permitted by the Code, and thus will reduce the amount of distributions to shareholders which would otherwise be necessary to relieve the Funds of any liability for federal tax. Pursuant to the Code, such capital loss carryforwards will expire as follows:

As of August 31, 2011, the Short-Intermediate Bond has $3,083 of post-October losses, which are deferred until fiscal year 2012 for tax purposes. Net capital losses incurred after October 31, and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first day of the Fund’s next taxable year.

 

10.   Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-03, “Reconsideration of Effective Control for Repurchase Agreements”. ASU No. 2011-03 amends FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 860, “Transfers and Servicing”, specifically the criteria required to determine whether a repurchase agreement (repo) and similar agreements should be accounted for as sales of financial assets or secured borrowings with commitments. ASU No. 2011-03 changes the assessment of effective control by focusing on the transferor’s contractual rights and obligations and removing the criterion to assess its ability to exercise those rights or honor those obligations. This could result in changes to the way entities account for certain transactions including repurchase agreements, mortgage dollar rolls and reverse repurchase agreements. The ASU will become effective on a prospective basis for new transfers and modifications to existing transactions as of the beginning of the first interim or annual period beginning on or after December 15, 2011. Management continues to evaluate the application of this pronouncement to the Funds and the significance of its impact, if any, on the Funds’ financial statements.

 

In May 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”)”. ASU No. 2011-04 amends FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”, to establish common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and IFRSs. ASU No. 2011-04 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. Management is currently evaluating the effect these amendments may have on the Funds’ financial statements.

 

In December 2011, FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11 related to disclosures about offsetting assets and liabilities. The amendments in this ASU require an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on its financial position. The ASU is effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The guidance requires retrospective application for all comparative periods presented. Management is currently evaluating the effect ASU No. 2011-11 may have on the Funds’ financial statements.

Shareholder Report Disclosure of Directors’ Approval of
Advisory and Sub-Advisory Contracts

 

Approval of Advisory and Subadvisory Agreements for BMO Dividend Income Fund, BMO Monegy High Yield Bond Fund, BMO Pyrford Global Strategic Return Fund and BMO Pyrford International Stock Fund

On November 2, 2011, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Marshall Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”) (now doing business as the BMO Funds), including the Directors who are not “interested persons” of the Corporation as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Directors”), considered the approval of the investment advisory agreement (the “Advisory Agreement”) between the Corporation and M&I Investment Management Corp. (the “Adviser”) on behalf of BMO Dividend Income Fund, BMO Monegy High Yield Fund, BMO Pyrford Global Strategic Return Fund and BMO Pyrford International Stock Fund (each a “New Fund” and collectively the “New Funds”) and the approval of subadvisory agreements (each a “Subadvisory Agreement” and together, the “Subadvisory Agreements”) with HIM Monegy, Inc. (“Monegy”) on behalf of BMO Monegy High Yield Bond Fund and with Pyrford International Ltd. (“Pyrford”) on behalf of BMO Pyrford Global Strategic Return Fund and BMO Pyrford International Stock Fund. Monegy and Pyrford are referred to herein as a “Subadviser” and collectively as the “Subadvisers” to the “New Subadvised Funds.”

 

On November 2, 2011, the Board met in person with management of the Adviser and with representatives of Monegy and Pyrford. The Independent Directors also met separately in executive session with their independent legal counsel to review and consider the information provided by the Adviser regarding the Advisory Agreement for the New Funds, and the information provided by Monegy and Pyrford regarding the Subadvisory Agreements for the New Subadvised Funds. The Independent Directors considered, among other factors, the Adviser’s long-term relationship with the Corporation, the services the Adviser provides for other funds of the Corporation, and the recent transaction whereby the parent company of the Adviser was acquired by Bank of Montreal (“BMO”). The Independent Directors noted that, in evaluating the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements, they were taking into account their accumulated experience as Independent Directors in working with the Adviser on matters relating to the Corporation’s other funds. Based on their review, the Independent Directors concluded that it was in the best interests of the New Funds to approve the Advisory Agreement, and accordingly, recommended that the Board approve the Advisory Agreement. The material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s determinations are discussed below.

 

Advisory Contract with the Adviser

 

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

In evaluating the nature, extent and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser to the New Funds, the Board reviewed information describing the resources and key personnel of the Adviser, including the personnel who would provide investment management services to the New Funds. The Board also considered the services Marshall & Ilsley Trust Company N.A. (the “Administrator”) would provide for the New Funds. The Board noted that at its May, July and August 2011 meetings, it had reviewed the advisory functions performed by the Adviser, as well as other services performed by the Adviser and Administrator for the Corporation’s other funds. The Board also considered the Adviser’s experience in managing new funds.

 

As the New Funds are newly created series, the Board did not review performance information for the New Funds. For the BMO Dividend Income Fund, the Board reviewed performance data for various periods ended September 30, 2011 of composite accounts managed by the Adviser using the strategy proposed for the fund.

 

Based upon this review, the Board concluded that the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided to the New Funds by the Adviser are expected to be satisfactory.

 

Costs of Services Provided and Profits Realized by the Adviser

The Board reviewed information comparing each New Fund’s management fee and net expense ratio to the average management fee and average net expense ratio of a peer group of funds provided by the Adviser using data obtained from Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”). The Board considered that the Adviser has agreed to contractual expense limitations for the New Funds through December 29, 2012 (the “Expense Limitation”), and that the net expense ratio for the New Funds takes into account the effect of the Expense Limitation. In reviewing the information, the Board noted that the Fund’s management fee and net expense ratio for each New Fund were both below the average management fee and average net expense ratio of the peer group except that the advisory fee of .80% for the BMO Pyrford Global Strategic Return Fund was just above the average management fee of the Lipper Global Balanced category.

 

The Board also noted that because the New Funds were newly organized and had no assets, the Adviser did not provide profitability information. The Board considered the proposed Expense Limitation Agreement and concluded that profitability was not expected to be unreasonable.

 

On the basis of the information provided, the Board concluded that each New Fund’s management fee was reasonable, taking into account the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided by the Adviser.

 

Economies of Scale

The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the New Funds grow and whether the New Funds’ fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of shareholders. The Board noted that the Advisory Agreement for the BMO Dividend Income Fund, the BMO Pyrford Global Strategic Return Fund and the BMO Pyrford International Stock

 

138


Table of Contents
    BMO Funds

 

Fund each contained breakpoints which would provide additional economies of scale as the funds grow. With respect to the BMO Monegy High Yield Fund, the Board noted that the Adviser was willing to consider breakpoints in the future. The Board considered that the New Funds were not yet operational and had no assets and also considered each New Fund’s net expense ratio giving effect to the Expense Limitation and concluded that the New Funds’ Expense Limitation was a reasonable way to provide the benefits of economies of scale to shareholders at this time.

 

Other Benefits to the Adviser

The Board considered benefits that accrue to the Adviser and its affiliates, including Monegy and Pyrford, from their contractual relationships with the New Funds, including administration and custody fees and revenues from securities lending. The Board concluded that, taking into account these benefits, the management fee for each New Fund was reasonable.

 

Subadvisory Agreements with the Subadvisers

 

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

Similar to the review of the advisory contract with the Adviser, the Board considered the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by each of Monegy and Pyrford. The Board reviewed the qualifications and background of each Subadviser, the investment approach and philosophy of each Subadviser, and the experience and skills of the investment personnel responsible for the day-to-day management of each New Subadvised Fund. The Board considered the in-person presentations by representatives of each Subadviser. The Board considered that the services to be provided by each of Monegy and Pyrford under the Subadvisory Agreements, included selecting broker-dealers for execution of portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to the respective New Subadvised Fund’s investment restrictions, and assisting with portfolio compliance with securities laws, regulations, policies and procedures.

 

Review of Performance

As the New Subadvised Funds are newly created series and had not commenced operations, the Board did not review performance information for the New Subadvised Funds. The Board reviewed performance data provided by Monegy and Pyrford for various periods ended September 30, 2011 of composite accounts managed by each of Monegy and Pyrford using similar strategies as proposed for each New Subadvised Fund.

 

Costs of Services Provided and Profits Realized by the Subadvisers

The Board considered that the subadvisory fee to be paid to each of Monegy and Pyrford was within a competitive range of fees charged by the respective Subadviser to other accounts with similar investment strategies. With respect to profitability, the Board considered that the Adviser compensates each Subadviser from its fee and that each Subadviser is an affiliate of the Adviser.

 

On the basis of the information provided, the Board concluded that the subadvisory management fee to be paid to each of Monegy and Pyrford was reasonable, taking into account the nature, quality and extent of services to be provided by the Subadvisers.

 

Economies of Scale

Because the Subadvisers are each affiliates of the Adviser and are paid by the Adviser, the Board did not separately review the extent to which economies of scale are realized as each New Subadvised Fund grows. The Board noted that each Subadviser’s compensation would be reduced proportionately along with any advisory fee reductions as a result of advisory fee breakpoints.

 

Other Benefits to the Subadvisers

The Board noted that no material benefits to the Subadvisers were identified other than the subadvisory fees. The Board noted that each Subadviser was an affiliate of the Adviser.

 

Conclusion

After full consideration of the above factors as well as other factors that were instructive in evaluating the Advisory Agreement and the Subadvisory Agreements, the Board concluded that the terms of the Advisory Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement are fair and reasonable and that approval of the Advisory Agreement and each Subadvisory Agreement is in the best interests of each applicable New Fund, taking into consideration the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided, proposed fee and expense levels, economies of scale and other benefits to the Adviser and the Subadvisers.

 

Approval of New Sub-Advisory Agreement for the Emerging Markets Equity Fund

On November 2, 2011, the Board of Directors of Marshall Funds, Inc. (the “Corporation”), including the Directors who are not “interested persons” of the Corporation, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Independent Directors”), met to consider the approval of a new subadvisory agreement (the “New Subadvisory Agreement”) between the Adviser and Lloyd George Management (Hong Kong) Limited (“LGM(HK)”) on behalf of the BMO Lloyd George Emerging Markets Equity Fund (f/k/a Marshall Emerging Markets Equity Fund) (the “Fund”). The Board considered that the material terms of the New Subadvisory Agreement were substantially similar to those of the then current subadvisory

agreement with Trilogy Global Advisors, LP (“Trilogy”). The Board also considered the in-person presentation by LGM(HK) and information received at or prior to its November 2, 2011 meeting in response to the request for information by the Independent Directors and their independent legal counsel, including, but not limited to, the organizational structure and investment strategy of LGM(HK), select financial statements, the experience and background of key management personnel, a summary detailing key provisions of its written compliance program, its Code of Ethics and comparative fee information for a private fund managed by LGM(HK) with the same strategy as that proposed for the Fund.

 

On November 2, 2011, the Board met in person with management of the Adviser and with the portfolio managers of LGM(HK) who would manage the Fund, and the Independent Directors also met separately in executive session with their independent legal counsel. Based on their review, the Independent Directors concluded that it was in the best interest of the Fund to approve the New Subadvisory Agreement and accordingly recommended to the Board the approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement. In deciding to approve the New Subadvisory Agreement for the Fund, the Board did not identify any single factor or group of factors as all-important or controlling and considered all factors together. The material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s determination are described below.

 

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services

The Board considered the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided by LGM(HK) under the New Subadvisory Agreement. The Board also considered the in-person presentation by the portfolio managers of LGM(HK) and reviewed the qualifications and background of LGM(HK), its resources and financial condition, its investment approach and philosophy and the investment personnel who will be responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund. The Board considered that the firm had been founded by Robert Lloyd George, one of the proposed portfolio managers, and that the firm focused exclusively on Asian, Global Emerging and Frontier equity markets. The Board considered that the services provided by LGM(HK) under the New Subadvisory Agreement would be substantially similar to those provided by Trilogy under the then current subadvisory agreement, including selecting broker-dealers for execution of portfolio transactions, monitoring adherence to the Fund’s investment restrictions, and assisting with the Fund’s compliance with securities laws and regulations and the Fund’s policies and procedures.

 

Review of Investment Performance

The Board reviewed the Fund’s calendar year total return for 2009, 2010 and year-to-date through September 30, 2011 compared to the performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index and the Lipper Emerging Markets Fund Index. The Board noted that the Fund had underperformed the Lipper Emerging Markets Fund Index for each of the periods reviewed and had underperformed the MSCI Emerging Markets Index for the year-to-date period in 2011 and calendar year 2009.

 

The Board also reviewed the total return information for a private fund managed by LGM(HK) with the same strategy as that proposed for the Fund for various periods since its inception in October 2009, compared to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, noting that over each of the periods reviewed that the portfolio management team had outperformed the benchmark index.

 

Costs of Services Provided and Profits Realized by the Subadviser

The Board noted that the subadvisory fee to be charged by LGM(HK) at the current asset levels of the Fund was in line with the fee schedule of its private fund. With respect to profitability, the Independent Directors considered that the Adviser compensates LGM(HK) from its fee and that LGM(HK) is an affiliate of the Adviser. The Independent Directors also considered the Adviser’s agreement to reduce the investment advisory fee from 1.00% to 0.90% and reduce the expense limitation for Class Y shares from 1.50% to 1.40% and for Class I shares from 1.25% to 1.15% through July 6, 2013 because the use of an affiliated sub-adviser would improve the economic opportunity for the Adviser and its affiliates.

 

Economies of Scale

The Board considered the extent to which economies of scale would be realized as the Fund grows and whether the Fund’s fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of Fund shareholders. The Board considered the small size of the Fund, the fact that the advisory fee schedule includes breakpoints, and LGM(HK)’s compensation would be reduced proportionately along with any advisory fee reductions as a result of advisory fee breakpoints.

 

Other Benefits to the Subadviser

The Board noted that no other material benefits to LGM(HK) were identified other than the subadvisory fee. The Board further noted that LGM(HK) was an affiliate of the Adviser. The Board concluded that, taking into account these benefits, the Fund’s advisory fee was reasonable.

 

Conclusion

Based on all of the information considered and the conclusions reached, the Board determined that the terms of the New Subadvisory Agreement are fair and reasonable and that the approval of the New Subadvisory Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund, taking into consideration the costs of services provided and profit realized, economies of scale and other benefits to LGM(HK).
