Old Wine in New Bottle


Lord Abbett converted its growth and income fund last month, renaming the $275 million fund to Lord Abbett All Value Fund. The Jersey City, New Jersey-based fund firm changed the name to reflect larger positions in small- and mid-cap companies.

"We placed all the different market cap options into one fund to take advantage of what's doing well," explained a Lord Abbett wholesaler.

The prospectus was not affected by the conversion.

The fund firm has a total of 55 employees and $40 billion in assets under management. The name change took effect March 1, 2001
