Transamerica US Growth Class I (TDEIX) is a mutual fund offered by Transamerica Funds, focusing on long-term capital appreciation through investments primarily in U.S. large-cap growth stocks. The fund invests in common stocks of established companies demonstrating strong growth potential, including sectors such as technology, consumer discretionary, healthcare, and industrials; it may also allocate to smaller-cap growth stocks and employ derivatives for hedging or efficient portfolio management. Managed actively by American Century Investment Management, Inc., the fund targets investors seeking exposure to dynamic U.S. equities with a benchmark against the Russell 1000 Growth Index.
Transamerica Funds, part of the Transamerica family under Aegon Americas, provides a broad range of mutual funds encompassing equity, fixed income, multi-asset, and alternative strategies; key offerings include target-date retirement funds, index-tracking funds, and actively managed sector-specific portfolios like growth, value, and income-focused vehicles. The funds complex serves individual investors, financial advisors, and institutional clients through various share classes, including Class I for institutional investors with lower expense ratios. Operations span the United States, with distribution primarily through broker-dealers, retirement plans, and advisory platforms.
Founded in 1909 as part of Transamerica Corporation and headquartered in Cedar Rapids, Iowa (with fund administration in Los Angeles, California), Transamerica Funds has evolved through Aegon's 1999 acquisition of Transamerica, leading to integration into a global asset management framework. In recent years, the firm has emphasized sustainable investing initiatives, launching ESG-integrated funds and enhancing portfolio analytics; no major acquisitions or name changes occurred in 2024-2025, but strategic enhancements include expanded access to American Century's growth strategies amid market volatility. The funds maintain a strong focus on retirement solutions, aligning with Aegon N.V.'s broader U.S. retirement services segment.
