Investment Objectives

Maximize, consistent with prudent investment management, total investment return, consisting of a combination of interest income and capital appreciation by investing primarily in investment-grade debt instruments issued by governments, government-related entities (including supranational organizations supported by several national governments) and corporations anywhere in the world.

Investment Strategy

The Fund invests primarily in investment-grade debt instruments, but may invest up to 20% of its net assets in non-investment-grade debt instruments and may also invest in the debt instruments of issuers in emerging markets. The Fund may invest in credit-linked securities or other structured products that derive their value from an index, security or currency, such as mortgage- and asset-backed securities, including collateralized debt obligations.
