-- Mid Cap Value is also one of six strategies at TriState Capital Holdings’ asset management unit that have outperformed their relative benchmarks on one-, three- and five-year periods through the end of 2018

BERWYN, Pa.--()--The Chartwell Investment Partners Mid Cap Value strategy’s return of 11.71% (gross of fees) and 11.11% (net of fees) ranked in the top 1% of peers for the three-year annualized period ending December 31, 2018. The strategy also ranked in the top quartile for the one-year annualized period, returning -9.64% (gross of fees) and -10.24% (net of fees), and the top 3% for the five-year annualized period, returning 8.56% (gross of fees) and 7.96% (net of fees), according to eVestment Alliance2, and is one of six Chartwell strategies that have outperformed their relative benchmarks on one-, three- and five-year annualized periods through the end of last year.

The value team has been together for more than a decade, employing what we believe is a consistent process for identifying undervalued mid cap equities,” said Managing Partner, Senior Portfolio Manager David C. Dalrymple, CFA, who manages the Chartwell Mid Cap Value strategy. “The relatively low volatility, higher growth, and stronger financial characteristics of the stocks we have selected for our focused portfolios made our Mid Cap Value strategy appealing to a growing number of retail and institutional investors, and we’re gratified that our performance has earned their trust and confidence.”

Mid Cap Value is one of six Chartwell strategies that have outperformed their relative benchmarks for the one-, three- and five-year periods ending December 31, 2018. Others were Chartwell’s Small Cap Value, Dividend Value, Intermediate High Grade Fixed Income, Core High Grade Fixed Income, and Core Plus Fixed Income strategies. Chartwell also offers a mutual fund similar to the Mid Cap Value strategy.

We’re very proud of the returns that Dave and his Mid Cap Value team have achieved for our clients through the end of 2018, and the results we saw across our equity and fixed income strategies,” Chartwell Managing Partner and Chief Executive Officer Timothy J. Riddle, CFA said. “The performance of many of our active strategies, coupled with our sales and distribution capabilities, have enabled Chartwell to generate positive net inflows of $174 million last year and $25 million in the fourth quarter, a period of extraordinary financial market volatility.”
