If Proposal Three is approved, would Dreyfus Equity Growth Fund change its investment strategy?
A. No. Dreyfus Equity Growth Fund would continue to invest primarily in common stocks of large, well-established and mature companies and be managed using a “growth style” of investing. Changing the Fund’s investment objective as proposed would provide the Fund’s portfolio managers with more flexibility to concentrate on companies that may pay little or no dividends, but offer better prospects for capital appreciation.
