The Targeted Credit Portfolio seeks to maximize total returns from a universe of U.S. and foreign corporate debt securities that mature within five years from the date of settlement. In addition, the Portfolio may invest in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. and foreign governments, their agencies and instrumentalities, bank obligations, commercial paper, repurchase agreements, money market funds, obligations of other domestic and foreign issuers, securities of domestic or foreign issuers denominated in U.S. dollars but not trading in the United States, and obligations of supranational organizations. The Portfolio generally emphasizes investments in debt securities rated A+ to BBB- by S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings Ltd. (“Fitch”) or A1 to Baa3 by Moody’s Investor’s Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”). The Portfolio may also invest in higher-rated investment grade securities (i.e., those rated AAA to AA- by S&P or Fitch or Aaa to Aa3 by Moody’s) and/or below-investment grade securities (i.e., those rated below BBB- by S&P or Fitch or below Baa3 by Moody’s) depending on the expected credit premium. The Advisor expects that the Portfolio will primarily invest in the obligations of issuers that are in developed countries.
As a non-fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Targeted Credit Portfolio will invest at least 80% of its net assets in debt securities. The Portfolio seeks to maintain a weighted average maturity and a weighted average duration of five years or less. Duration is a measure of the sensitivity of a security’s price to changes in interest rates. The longer a security’s duration, the more sensitive it will be to changes in interest rates.
The Targeted Credit Portfolio’s investments may include foreign securities denominated in foreign currencies. The Portfolio intends to hedge foreign currency exposure to attempt to protect against uncertainty in the level of future foreign currency rates. The Portfolio may enter into foreign currency forward contracts to hedge against fluctuations in currency exchange rates or to transfer balances from one currency to another. The Portfolio also may enter into credit default swaps on issuers or indices to buy or sell credit protection to hedge its credit exposure; gain market or issuer exposure without owning the underlying securities; or increase the Portfolio’s total return. The Portfolio may purchase or sell futures contracts and options on futures contracts, to hedge its currency exposure or to hedge its interest rate exposure or for non-hedging purposes, such as a substitute for direct investment or to increase or decrease market exposure based on actual or expected cash inflows to or outflows from the Portfolio.
The Targeted Credit Portfolio may lend its portfolio securities to generate additional income.
