- Becker Value Equity Fund Retail Class (BVEFX) is an open-end mutual fund that seeks long-term capital appreciation through a value investment strategy, primarily investing in common and preferred stocks of large- and medium-sized companies whose market prices are deemed undervalued; it also holds non-U.S. stocks, cash equivalents, and may invest in convertible securities, exchange-traded funds, repurchase agreements, and other equity equivalents. The Retail Class shares, with ticker BVEFX, feature a net expense ratio of approximately 0.78% to 0.79%, a minimum initial investment of $2,500, daily pricing, and total net assets of around $99 million as of late 2025, complemented by an Institutional Class (BVEIX). Managed as a series of Professionally Managed Portfolios since its reorganization in 2012 from a predecessor fund launched in 2003, the fund is advised by Becker Capital Management, Inc., an independent, employee-owned investment advisory firm founded in 1976 and headquartered at 1211 SW 5th Avenue, Suite 2600, Portland, Oregon, with additional offices in Seattle, Washington, and Bend, Oregon. The fund maintains a diversified portfolio with approximately 87% in U.S. stocks, 10% in non-U.S. stocks, and the balance in cash; top sector allocations include financial services (20%), industrials (14%), technology (13%), healthcare (11%), and consumer cyclical (9%), with a portfolio turnover rate of 20% to 31% and a team of managers led by Stephen Laveson and Patrick Becker since inception, alongside Andy Murray, Thomas McConville, Sid Parakh, and Blake Howells. In recent developments, the Board of Trustees approved a name change for the fund on December 6, 2025, effective February 28, 2026, from Becker Value Equity Fund to Becker Equity Fund, without altering its investment objective, strategies, or portfolio management team; additionally, the advisor updated its address to the current Portland location effective immediately in December 2025. The fund operates primarily in the United States market for retail and institutional investors seeking large value exposure, with availability through platforms like Fidelity and Schwab, and no reported acquisitions, funding rounds, or major strategic shifts beyond these administrative updates in the past 1-2 years.
