Exhibit (p)(5)
CODE OF ETHICS
OF
BARROW, HANLEY, MEWHINNEY & STRAUSS, INC.
-----------------------------------------
PREAMBLE
--------
This Code of Ethics ("Code") is being adopted in compliance
with the requirements of Sections 204A and 206 of the Investment Advisers Act of
1940 (the "Advisers Act") and Rule 204-2 thereunder and Section 17j of the
Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "40 Act") and Rule 17j-1 thereunder, to
effectuate the purposes and objectives of those provisions. Section 204A of the
Advisers Act requires the establishment and enforcement of policies and
procedures reasonably designed to prevent the misuse of material, nonpublic
information by investment advisers. Rule 204-2 imposes recordkeeping
requirements with respect to personal securities transactions of access persons
(defined below). Section 206 of the Advisers Act and Rule 17j-1 of the 40 Act
make it unlawful for certain persons, including
BARROW, HANLEY, MEWHINNEY & STRAUSS, INC. (the "Firm"):
-----------------------------------------
(1) To employ a device, scheme or artifice to defraud any
client or prospective client, or any mutual fund
portfolio managed by the Firm (the "Fund");
(2) To engage in any transaction, practice or course of
business which operates or would operate as a fraud
or deceit upon any client or prospective client, or
the Fund;
(3) Acting as principal for his own account, knowingly to
sell any security to or purchase any security from a
client, or acting as broker for a person other than
such client, knowingly to effect any sale or purchase
of any security for the account of such client,
without disclosing to such client in writing before
the completion of such transaction the capacity in
which he is acting and obtaining the consent of the
client to such transaction. The prohibitions of this
paragraph (3) shall not apply to any transaction with
a customer of a broker or dealer if such broker or
dealer is not acting as an investment adviser in
relation to such transaction;
(4) To engage in any act, practice, or course of business
which is fraudulent, deceptive or manipulative; or
33
<PAGE> 2
(5) To make to the Fund any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state to the Fund a material
fact necessary in order to make the statements made,
in light of the circumstances in which they are made,
not misleading.
This Code contains provisions reasonably necessary to prevent
persons from engaging in acts in violation of the above standard and procedures
reasonably necessary to prevent violations of the Code.
This Code of Ethics is adopted by the Board of Directors of
the Firm. This Code is based upon the principle that the directors and officers
of the Firm, and certain affiliated persons of the Firm, owe a fiduciary duty
to, among others, the clients of the Firm and shareholders of the Fund to
conduct their affairs, including their personal securities transactions, in such
manner to avoid (i) serving their own personal interests ahead of clients or
shareholders; (ii) taking inappropriate advantage of their position with the
Firm or the Fund; and (iii) any actual or potential conflicts of interest or any
abuse of their position of trust and responsibility. This fiduciary duty
includes the duty of the Compliance Officer of the Firm to report violations of
this Code of Ethics to the Firm's Board of Directors and to the Fund's
Compliance Officer.
POLICY STATEMENT ON INSIDER TRADING
-----------------------------------
The Firm forbids any officer, director or employee from
trading, either personally or on behalf of others, including accounts managed by
the Firm, on material nonpublic information or communicating material nonpublic
information to others in violation of the law. This conduct is frequently
referred to as "insider trading." The Firm's policy applies to every officer,
director and employee and extends to activities within and outside their duties
at the Firm. Any questions regarding the Firm's policy and procedures should be
referred to the Firm's Compliance Officer.
The term "insider trading" is not defined in the federal
securities laws, but generally is used to refer to the use of material nonpublic
information to trade in securities (whether or not one is an "insider") or to
communications of material nonpublic information to others.
While the law concerning insider trading is not static, it is
generally understood that the law prohibits:
1) trading by an insider, while in possession of
material nonpublic information, or
2) trading by a non-insider, while in possession of
material nonpublic information, where the information
either was disclosed to the non-insider in violation
of an insider's duty to keep it confidential or was
misappropriated, or
3) communicating material nonpublic information to
others.
34
<PAGE> 3
The concept of "insider" is broad. It includes officers,
directors and employees of a company. In addition, a person can be a "temporary
insider" if he or she enters into a special confidential relationship in the
conduct of a company's affairs and as a result is given access to information
solely for the company's purposes. A temporary insider can include, among
others, a company's attorneys, accountants, consultants, bank lending officers,
and the employees of such organizations. In addition, the Firm may become a
temporary insider of a company it advises or for which it performs other
services. For that to occur, the company must expect the Firm to keep the
disclosed nonpublic information confidential and the relationship must at least
imply such a duty before the Firm will be considered an insider.
Trading on inside information is not a basis for liability
unless the information is material. "Material information" generally is defined
as information for which there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable
investor would consider it important in making his or her investment decisions,
or information that is reasonably certain to have a substantial effect on the
price of a company's securities. Information that officers, directors and
employees should consider material includes, but is not limited to: dividend
changes, earnings estimates, changes in previously released earnings estimates,
significant merger or acquisition proposals or agreements, major litigation,
liquidation problems, and extraordinary management developments.
Information is nonpublic until it has been effectively
communicated to the market place. One must be able to point to some fact to show
that the information is generally public. For example, information found in a
report filed with the SEC, or appearing in Dow Jones, Reuters Economic Services,
The Wall Street Journal or other publications of general circulation would be
considered public. You should be particularly careful with information received
from client contacts at public companies.
Before trading for yourself or others in the securities of a
company about which you may have potential inside information, ask yourself the
following questions:
i. Is the information material? Is this information that
an investor would consider important in making his or
her investment decisions? Is this information that
would substantially effect the market price of the
securities if generally disclosed?
ii. Is the information nonpublic? To whom has this
information been provided? Has the information been
effectively communicated to the marketplace?
If, after consideration of the above, you believe that the
information is material and nonpublic, or if you have questions as to whether
the information is material and nonpublic, you should take the following steps.
i. Report the matter immediately to the Firm's
Compliance Officer.
35
<PAGE> 4
ii. Do not purchase or sell the securities on behalf of
yourself or others.
iii. Do not communicate the information inside or outside
the Firm, other than to the Firm's Compliance
Officer.
iv. After the Firm's Compliance Officer has reviewed the
issue, you will be instructed to continue the
prohibitions against trading and communication, or
you will be allowed to trade and communicate the
information.
Information in your possession that you identify as material
and nonpublic may not be communicated to anyone, including persons within the
Firm, except as provided above. In addition, care should be taken so that such
information is secure. For example, files containing material nonpublic
information should be sealed; access to computer files containing material
nonpublic information should be restricted.
The role of the Firm's Compliance Officer is critical to the
implementation and maintenance of the Firm's policy and procedures against
insider trading. The Firm's Supervisory Procedures can be divided into two
classifications - prevention of insider trading and detection of insider
trading.
To prevent insider trading, the Firm will:
i. provide, on a regular basis, an educational program
to familiarize officers, directors and employees with
the Firm's policy and procedures, and
ii. when it has been determined that an officer, director
or employee of the Firm has material nonpublic
information,
1. implement measures to prevent dissemination
of such information, and
2. if necessary, restrict officers, directors
and employees from trading the securities.
To detect insider trading, the Firm's Compliance Officer will:
i. review the trading activity reports filed by each
officer, director and employee, and
ii. review the trading activity of accounts managed by
the Firm.

(b) PROHIBITION ON SERVICE AS A DIRECTOR OR
PUBLIC OFFICIAL. Investment Personnel are
prohibited from serving on the board of
directors of any publicly traded company

or the Fund. Any such authorization shall be
based upon a determination that the board
service would be consistent with the
interests of the Firm's clients and the
Fund's shareholders. Authorization of board
service shall be subject to the
implementation by the Firm of a "Chinese
Wall" or other procedures to isolate such
investment personnel from making decisions
about trading in that company's securities.
(c) PROHIBITION ON INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERINGS.
Access persons are prohibited from acquiring
securities in an initial public offering.
(d) PROHIBITION ON PRIVATE PLACEMENTS. Access
persons are prohibited from acquiring
securities in a private placement without
prior approval from the Firm's Compliance

any part in the Firm's later consideration
of an investment in the issuer.
(e) PROHIBITION ON OPTIONS. Access persons are
prohibited from acquiring or selling any
option on any security.

any profits realized on such short-term

(2) BLACKOUT RESTRICTIONS FOR ACCESS PERSONS. All access
persons are subject to the following restrictions
when their purchases and sales of securities coincide
with trades by any client of the Firm or by the Fund:

FOLLOWING A TRADE BY A CLIENT OR THE FUND.
Access persons are prohibited from
purchasing or selling any security within
three calendar days after any client or the

makes a prohibited purchase or sale within
the three-day period, the access person must
unwind the transaction and relinquish any
gain from the transaction to the appropriate
client portfolio(s) or the Fund.
(b) PURCHASES WITHIN SEVEN DAYS BEFORE A
PURCHASE BY A CLIENT OR THE FUND. Any access
person who purchases a security within seven

access person makes a prohibited sale within
the six-month period, the access person must

portfolio(s) or the Fund any gain from the
transaction.

related) security must relinquish to the
