Incepted in September 1993, the fund is managed by BlackRock Advisors. The fund seeks long-term capital appreciation. The fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities issued by U.S. small capitalization growth companies (market capitalization under $2.5 billion). The management team expects these companies to have products, technologies, management, markets and opportunities which will facilitate earnings growth over time that is well above the growth rate of the overall economy and the rate of inflation. The fund offers dividends on a quarterly basis and capital gains annually.
