CITs are tax-exempt, pooled investment vehicles sponsored and maintained by a trustee that is a bank or trust company. CITs combine assets from eligible investors into a single investment portfolio (or fund) to pursue a set of stated investment objectives and strategies.
CITs have been around since the 1920s, but their popularity has surged in recent years as an investment vehicle option for retirement plans.

Great Gray Trust Company, LLC serves as the Trustee of the Great Gray Funds and maintains ultimate fiduciary authority over the management of, and investments made in, the Great Gray Funds. Great Gray Funds and their units are exempt from registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and the Securities Act of 1933, respectively.

Performance data shown represents past performance and should not be considered indicative or, or a guarantee of future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than that shown. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate. Your investment, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost. Any fee waivers result in higher performance than what would have otherwise been realized.
Performance return figures represent the total change in net assets with capital gains and income dividends reinvested. Performance information is presented net of any applicable trustee fees, management fees, contract fees, or other fees or expenses which are borne by the Fund.
Gross performance returns (where provided) usually will reflect the deduction of transaction costs, but not advisory fees or all other expenses an investor in the Great Gray Fund bears. Accordingly, gross performance will be higher than net performance results, and the effect of additional fees and expenses borne by the investor will compound over time.
Great Gray Fund performance may be accompanied by performance of a published index selected based on the Great Gray Fund strategy in an effort to compare the performance of a market of securities commonly seen as eligible for that strategy. Indices are unmanaged and not available for direct investment. Indices do not reflect expenses that are borne by an investor in a Great Gray Fund, such as management fees and transaction costs, which reduce returns. Please consult the index provider for a description of the index.
