CUIT Money Market Fund

¡ The Federal Reserve continued to hold money market rates near zero during Q4 and full-year 2014 — producing a sixth-straight year of near-zero cash market yields

¡ The Federal Reserve ended its bond purchase program (quantitative easing) in October 2014 and appears focused on a growing U.S. economy rather than on financial markets or weak overseas economies

¡ The Fund’s sub-adviser believes the Fed is on track to begin raising rates by mid-2015 if core inflation holds steady and labor market conditions continue to improve

¡ Lower-quality corporate spreads widened in Q4 on rising equity market volatility and sharply falling oil prices

¡ Securitized sectors continued to outperform given their generally high credit quality and improved business conditions in the commercial and real estate markets underlying the collateral

¡ Full-year excess return was driven primarily by the Fund’s allocation to the mortgage and securitized sectors and secondarily to the corporate market; these areas benefited from the global search for yield during 2014

¡ The Fed appears focused on a growing US economy rather than on financial markets or weak overseas economies

¡ The Fund is positioned for rising short-term yields in 2015

¡ The oil price collapse has generated select opportunities among high quality corporate securities as spreads have widened, particularly in the refining sector; as a result, the Fund’s allocation to corporate securities may increase in the months ahead

¡ Relative performance for Q4 and full-year 2014 was driven primarily by the portfolio’s below-benchmark duration

¡ Given the low level of real yields, the sub-advisers have maintained a conservative position with respect to interest rate risk

¡ Offsetting the impact of its shorter duration, the Fund benefitted from security selection in the mortgage and high quality corporate sectors

¡ As 2015 begins, the Fund maintains duration at a level shorter than the benchmark’s in light of low real yields and the sub-advisers’ expectation of higher short-term rates in 2015

¡ Both sub-advisers are conservatively positioned in high quality corporate names, but believe selective opportunities will appear as a result of the oil price decline and widening credit spreads

¡ The fund also benefitted from a barbelled positioning; it has been overweight both the short and long sectors of the curve while underweight the intermediate sector and this has benefitted performance as the yield curve flattened

¡ The Fund continues to be defensively positioned with duration shorter than that of the benchmark and an overweight in the Treasury and Agency sectors

¡ The sub-advisers anticipate rising bond market volatility as the Fed begins to raise short-term rates this year

¡ CBIS expects the Fund’s defensive positioning will persist until market volatility presents opportunities to assume additional credit risk at higher prospective returns

CUIT Balanced Fund

¡ The Fund slightly trailed its blended benchmark in Q4 and materially trailed for the full year; this was due to the negative impact of market volatility on the value equity portfolio, particularly key energy and IT holdings

¡ The portfolio has experienced significantly above-benchmark gains in recent years and a correction is to be expected

¡ The value portfolio is slow-changing with low turnover; it is currently overweight financials (diversified across banks, capital markets and consumer finance), information technology (software and storage) and consumer discretionary (concentrated in media names) as a result of bottom-up stock selection

¡ The fixed-income segment slightly lagged its benchmark during Q4 and full-year 2014 due to a below-benchmark duration and an underweight to the long end of the curve and government-related debt in one of the three sub-advised bond portfolios

¡ The fixed-income segment remains defensively positioned with below-benchmark duration and an overweight in the Treasury and Agency sectors

¡ CBIS expects this positioning will persist until market volatility creates opportunities to assume credit risk at higher prospective returns

¡ CRI screens had a modest positive impact on tracking in Q4; the Fund’s healthcare sector exposure was slightly additive due to weak performance by several screened pharmaceutical companies and better returns by reweighted holdings both in the industry and elsewhere in the sector

¡ The Fund also gained ground on the Index in Q4 in the industrials sector due to underperformance by a large industrial conglomerate screened under CBIS’ Life Ethics criteria and superior returns by reweighted peers in the same industry

¡ The Fund picked up its excess return in 2014 primarily in the healthcare and industrials sectors; pharmaceuticals underweight detracted, as the industry in the benchmark returned a strong 21.68%

¡ However, several screened names markedly underperformed unrestricted peers and the relatively stronger performance by unrestricted holdings in the industry more than offset the impact of the underweight in pharmaceuticals

¡ Reweighting into the biotech industry, which gained 33.23% in the benchmark, was also a significant source of excess return in the healthcare sector

CUIT Value Equity Fund

¡ In the final quarter of a difficult year for active management, the Fund lost relative return from out-of-favor holdings in the energy and financials sectors and to a lesser extent in IT and materials; negative volatility from the sharp decline in the price of oil, which fell more than 40% during the quarter, took a toll on the Fund’s energy positioning

¡ Lack of exposure to REITs detracted in financials in Q4 as yield-hungry investors continued to drive up REIT share prices to levels our sub-advisers see as unattractive, while insurers held in the portfolio lagged peers

¡ Similarly, in 2014 the Fund’s holdings were decidedly out-of-favor; positioning in the financials and IT industries detracted, while stock selection in energy, consumer staples and telecom services also lagged, but to a smaller degree

¡ Enduring of periods of volatility in relative return is generally a requirement for achieving long-term excess return; despite a tough 2014, the Fund continues to be above benchmark for the trailing three-year period and ranks in the top quartile of peer value managers over the trailing three- and five-year periods at year end – CBIS is confident in the sub-advisers, each of which is a veteran firm with long-term success over multiple market cycles

CUIT Growth Fund

¡ The quarter’s outperformance resulted mostly from stock selection, which produced modest excess return across seven of the ten market sectors

¡ Slightly above-benchmark performance in IT and comparatively stronger results in materials, driven by strength among chemical holdings, were major contributors

¡ The largest individual positive at the sector level for the quarter was the Fund’s energy underweight, as energy was by far the benchmark’s weakest sector, falling 18.5%

¡ The largest detractors were stock selection in energy (where portfolio holdings marginally trailed benchmark peers) and in financials (where the Fund’s exposures to banks, capital markets and diversified financial services lagged the benchmark’s)

¡ Sources of strength included stock selection in consumer staples, particularly among food and staples retailers

¡ Despite lagging the Index, the Fund ranks in the top half of growth peers at December 31 over the trailing one-, three- and five-year periods

¡ There was very little difference between Fund and benchmark results across the ten major market sectors for the quarter

¡ The most significant impact on relative return at the portfolio level came from the Fund’s small cash balance, at about 0.4% of assets, which permits daily liquidity; this produced a minor negative impact on tracking given the Index’s strong gain

¡ For the full year, the Fund’s consumer discretionary sector exposure was slightly additive as two screened handgun makers were weak performers while a re-weighted distribution company appreciated sharply

¡ The Fund gave up slight ground in healthcare, where a few biotech names screened under Life Ethics criteria outperformed (one more than tripled) causing a performance headwind that reweighted peer holdings could not fully recover

¡ Note that screened names as a group account for only about 1% of the benchmark’s market capitalization, therefore the influences described above had — both individually and collectively — only very small impacts on tracking

¡ Stock selection for the quarter was modestly additive across eight of the ten market sectors; the strongest relative returns came in financials, industrials and materials; energy was the quarter’s primary weak spot as a slight overweight to the sector detracted, as did the impact of negative volatility on the Fund’s oil and gas industry holdings

¡ Dollar strength was again a factor for U.S. dollar portfolios for full-year 2014; EAFE returned 6% in terms of local currencies

¡ Fund-level stock selection was additive in seven of the ten market sectors, with the strongest contributions coming in consumer discretionary, healthcare and materials

¡ A slight overweight detracted as energy was the benchmark’s weakest sector (-18% for the year); two other weak spots for the full year were stock selection in industrials, primarily due to weakness in a large construction and engineering holding, and utilities, where a slight underweight detracted and Fund holdings there marginally lagged benchmark peers

¡ Despite slightly lagging the benchmark in 2014, the Fund ranks in the top half of peers over the past year and top-third for the trailing three- and five-year periods



CBIS’ offers a disciplined and comprehensive approach to Catholic Responsible Investing

} CBIS pioneered Catholic responsible investing and has more than 30 years of experience applying Catholic social teaching to the investing process.

} While socially responsible investing is often equated with stock screens, a truly effective CRI program requires that we act as responsible owners of companies to bring about a more just society. Our approach to Catholic Socially Responsible Investing emphasizes direct engagement with companies to help them be better corporate citizens; while also incorporating screens.

} CBIS’ program of Catholic Responsible Investing enables Catholic institutions to align their investments with their beliefs and effect real change in corporate activities with respect to human rights, the environment, and corporate governance.

} As an institutional investment firm, we believe that by encouraging strong corporate environmental, social and governance, we are supporting the growth performance of shareholder value.
