Morningstar's Take by Gregg Wolper 08-18-16 Although Litman Gregory Masters Select International has question marks, its impressive lineup of subadvisors, thoughtful approach, and respectable parent earn it a Morningstar Analyst Rating of Bronze. This fund has an unusual structure. Unlike the typical multimanager offering, subadvisors are limited to just eight to 15 holdings apiece. Moreover, the subadvisors are not chosen with traditional diversification in mind, such as filling specific spots in the Morningstar Style Box. Rather, the overseers at Litman Gregory look for topnotch managers who they believe have proven effective at managing very focused portfolios and who relish taking on that challenge. This process has yielded impressive results over the long term. During the 10-year period through July 31, 2016, the fund lands in the 30th percentile of the foreign large-blendMorningstarCategory,andduring the15-year period, it’s in the 20th percentile. Two elements need further examination, however. First, the current manager lineup can't claim that long- term record. While David Herro of Harris Associates has been on board since the fund’s 1997 inception and a trio

from Northern Cross since 2007, others have come and gone through the years. Of the other three current subadvisors, Thornburg’s Vinson Walden arrived on this fund in 2008, Lazard's Mark Little in 2013, and Pictet Asset Management's duo in mid-2016. Second, performance during the past 12 months or so has been awful.The fund lost16.7% for the12months throughJuly 31, 2016, 10 percentage points worse than the category average. The main culprits have been European financial firmsownedbyseveralsubadvisors (includingHerro,who remains confident in his picks) and Valeant Pharmaceuticals VRX. Painful as such losses are, managers with strong convictions will suffer setbacks at times. That said, while the fund's current lineup is strong, and its concept has merit, its recent stumble shows the risk of focused portfolios chosen by unconventional managers, and the current lineup doesn't have a long record altogether.
