Investment Objectives

The investment objective of the fund is to provide Shareholders with exposure to a diversified portfolio of corporate, government or other bonds, and debt instruments or debt-like securities, of investment grade and noninvestment grade North American and/or international issuers. This could include investments in corporate bonds, notes, floating rate notes, convertible bonds, preferred shares, bank loans, government bonds or other income-producing securities.

In accordance with its investment objective, the underlying fund will invest primarily in corporate fixed-income securities. The fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in fixed income securities that are rated below investment grade. The underlying fund may also invest in government and other sovereign debt.
