- Edgewood Growth Fund Class Institutional (EGFIX) is a large-cap growth mutual fund that seeks long-term capital growth by investing primarily in a concentrated portfolio of 15 to 35 equity securities, including common stocks and sponsored American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) of high-quality, mid-to-large capitalization companies distinguished by financial strength, profitability, strong management, and long-term earnings potential; the fund typically benchmarks its performance against the S&P 500 Growth Index over a full market cycle and maintains individual stock weightings between 2% and 8%, with approximately 22 holdings as of recent portfolio updates. Managed by Edgewood Management LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser founded in 1974 and headquartered in New York City, the fund serves institutional investors with a minimum initial investment of $100,000 and features a net expense ratio of 1.00%; it operates as a non-diversified open-end investment company domiciled in the United States, distributed by SEI Investments Distribution Co., and is available through brokers or directly via the transfer agent DST. Edgewood Management LLC, 100% employee-owned by 11 partners, applies its proprietary large-cap growth strategy across the fund and separate accounts for high-net-worth individuals, family groups, endowments, foundations, and pension plans, with total discretionary assets under management exceeding $35 billion as of late 2024.
In recent developments, senior members of Edgewood's investment team made additional personal capital investments in the large-cap growth strategy in September 2025, underscoring conviction in the current portfolio following prior contributions in June 2010 and January 2023. The firm adjusted its portfolio in Q2 and Q3 2025 by adding positions in Broadcom Inc. (AVGO), Boston Scientific Corp. (BSX), Fair Isaac Corp. (FICO), Spotify Technology S.A. (SPOT), and Shopify Inc. (SHOP), while trimming holdings in Adobe Inc. (ADBE), Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. (CMG), Copart Inc. (CPRT), Eli Lilly & Co. (LLY), and Visa Inc. (V), resulting in a market value of approximately $31.5 billion as of June 30, 2025; new purchases also included AppLovin Corp. (APP) and others per latest 13F disclosures. Effective January 1, 2021, Edgewood updated the minimum portfolio size for its Large Cap Growth Composite inclusion from $250,000 to $1,000,000 to reflect evolving client profiles.
