The fund offers Investor Class shares (MGRIX) and Institutional Class shares (MIGWX), with a net expense ratio of approximately 1.33% to 1.45% for the Investor Class after waivers; minimum initial investments stand at $2,500 for Investor Class and lower thresholds for IRAs. Managed by Marsico Capital Management, LLC since its inception on December 31, 1997, the fund is headquartered in Denver, Colorado, and operates within the large growth category, available for sale in the United States with total net assets of around $424 million to $442 million as of recent reports.
Portfolio managers include founder and CIO Tom Marsico (over 40 years of experience), Peter Marsico, Jimmy Marsico, and Brandon Geisler, who utilize a blend of top-down macro-economic analysis and bottom-up company-specific research to maintain active share levels of 65% to 74% and 32 to 36 holdings. The fund demonstrates a focus on U.S. stocks (approximately 92%), with minor non-U.S. stock exposure (7%), and remains diversified relative to benchmarks like the Russell 1000 Growth Index and S&P 500 Index.
In recent developments, Marsico Capital Management, the adviser to the fund and other Marsico Funds, grew its total assets under management to approximately $4.4 billion as of September 30, 2025, reflecting ongoing business expansion; the firm maintains expense limitation agreements through January 31, 2026, capping Investor Class expenses at 1.45% and Institutional Class at 1.20%, with full recoupment of prior waivers achieved by September 30, 2024.
