Fund Description

Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in fixed-income securities. The Fund invests primarily in a diversified pool of investment-grade fixed-income securities, including corporate securities, U.S. government securities, asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities (securitized products) (including collateralized mortgage obligations), and foreign securities. Investment grade securities are rated BBB- or higher by S&P Global Ratings (“S&P Global”) or Baa3 or higher by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), at the time of purchase. If the security has been rated by only one of the rating agencies, that rating will determine the security’s rating; if the security is rated differently by the rating agencies, the highest rating is used; and if the security has not been rated by either of the rating agencies, those selecting such investments will determine the security’s quality. The Fund is not managed to a particular maturity. Under normal circumstances, the Fund maintains an average portfolio duration that is within ±25% of the duration of the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which as of January 31, 2024 was 6.11 years.
