Investment Objectives

The Fund’s investment objective is to provide high current income and some long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in high-yield, lower-rated debt instruments issued in the U.S. and anywhere else in the world.

Investment Strategy

The sub-advisor employs fundamental analysis in selecting investments for the Fund’s portfolio. The Fund invests primarily in non-investment-grade debt instruments and in preferred equity securities. The Fund may invest in debt instruments that are in default at the time of its investment. The Fund may invest in floating-rate debt instruments, TIPS, RRBs, ABS and MBS, and in hybrid securities, including preferred securities and convertible securities. The Fund may invest in syndicated loans.
