Our Flagship Is Getting a New Name

After more than 50 years, it’s time for a name change.

WHAT YOU
THINK

The Board of Trustees of The Royce Fund has approved changes to the name and nonfundamental investment policies for the Royce Pennsylvania Mutual Fund, that will become effective as of May 1, 2024.

The Fund’s name will change from “Royce Pennsylvania Mutual Fund” to “Royce Small-Cap Fund”—which better aligns it with its primary investment focus (in place for more than 50 years). In addition, the Fund’s new non-fundamental investment policy requires it to invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the value of its net assets in small-cap companies. The Fund’s investment objective and strategy are not changing.
