Investment Objectives

The fund seeks to achieve a positive total return (including through both capital appreciation and distributions) in diverse market environments over time by tactically allocating its assets primarily among a broad range of government and corporate investment grade fixed income securities from around the world.

Investment Strategy

The fund will obtain exposure primarily to a portfolio (the “Portfolio”) of government and corporate investment grade fixed income securities from around the world, the average rating of which will be investment grade. The fund may invest up to 20% of its net asset value in high yield fixed income securities rated below investment grade and up to 15% of its net asset value in structured corporate credit products such as CLO debt tranches and other types of asset-backed securities.
