so I don't know the fee structures on the funds. I will tell you that in the past 4 years my husbands return on investment has been very good. the website is www.sitfunds.com
Also Sit Mutual Funds has financial advisers. One of them I consider very knowledgeable and another is almost as good.
Small Cap funds in general outperform others but if you are getting older like me then less volatile bond funds are usually recommended.
