Fund Description

The Fund seeks to provide income through investments in fixed income securities (bonds) and high dividend paying equities, preferred equities and other similar securities (stocks). The Fund also seeks to provide income by writing call options. The Fund seeks to achieve capital appreciation primarily through equity securities. The percentage of the portfolio invested in equity and fixed income securities will vary from time to time as the Investment Adviser evaluates such securities’ relative attractiveness based on, among other factors, income opportunities, market valuations, economic growth and inflation prospects. The Fund has a baseline allocation to fixed income securities of 60% and to equity securities of 40%. In seeking to meet its investment objective, the Fund has the flexibility to opportunistically tilt the allocation to fixed income and equity securities up to 15% above or below the baseline allocation, measured at the time of investment.Equity Investments. The Fund may invest up to 55% of its total assets (not including securities lending collateral and any investment of that collateral) (“Total Assets”) measured at the time of purchase in equity investments, which include, among others, U.S. common stocks, preferred stocks and American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) of U.S. and foreign issuers (including issuers in countries with emerging markets or economies (“emerging countries”)), as well as master limited partnerships (“MLPs”), real estate investment trusts (“REITs”) and affiliated and unaffiliated investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”). With respect to the equity portion of the Fund’s portfolio, the Investment Adviser employs a value investment philosophy and seeks to identify quality businesses selling at compelling valuations. The Investment Adviser expects that equity investments will be weighted in favor of companies which pay dividends or other current income. While the Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization, the Investment Adviser will typically favor equity securities of large-cap companies.Fixed Income Investments. The Fund may invest up to 75% of its Total Assets measured at the time of purchase in fixed income investments. The Fund’s fixed income investments may include, among others:Securities issued by corporations, banks and other issuers, including non-investment grade securitiesSecurities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies, instrumentalities or sponsored enterprises (“U.S. Government Securities”)Securities issued or guaranteed by foreign governments or any of their political subdivisions, agencies, or instrumentalities and foreign corporations or other entities.The Fund may also seek to obtain exposure to these investments through investments in affiliated or unaffiliated investment companies, including ETFs.The Fund’s investments in foreign fixed income securities may include securities of foreign issuers (including issuers in emerging countries) and securities denominated in a currency other than the U.S. dollar.The Fund may invest in both non-investment grade and investment grade fixed income securities. Non-investment grade fixed income securities (commonly known as “junk bonds”), which are rated BB+ or lower by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“Standard & Poor’s”), or Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), or have a comparable rating by another nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”) (or, if unrated, determined by the Investment Adviser to be of comparable credit quality), at the time of investment. Non-investment grade securities may include, among others, non-investment grade bonds, non-investment grade floating rate loans and other floating or variable rate obligations. With respect to the fixed income portion of its portfolio, the Fund does not maintain a fixed target duration.Other Investments. The Fund may invest without limit in non-U.S. equity and non-U.S. fixed income securities.In addition to direct investments in equity and fixed income securities, the Fund may invest in derivatives, including credit default swaps (including credit default index swaps or “CDX”), total return swaps and futures, which can be used for both hedging purposes and to seek to increase total return. The Fund may also utilize various interest rate-related derivatives, including futures and swaps, to manage the duration of its fixed income positions. Additionally, the Fund may hedge its nondollar investments back to the U.S. dollar through the use of foreign currency derivatives, including currency futures and forward foreign currency contracts, or invest in such instruments for speculative purposes.The Fund seeks to generate additional cash flow and may reduce volatility by the sale of call options on the S&P 500® Index or other regional stock market indices (or related ETFs).The Fund expects that, under normal circumstances, it will sell put and call options in an amount up to 12% of the value of the Fund’s portfolio. The Fund expects to sell put and call options that are “out of the money.” As the seller of these options, the Fund will receive cash (the “premium”) from the purchaser. If the purchaser exercises the option, the Fund pays the purchaser the difference between the price of the index and the exercise price of the option. The premium, the exercise price and the market price of the index determine the gain or loss realized by the Fund as the seller of the call option. A put option gives the purchaser the right to sell the option’s underlier (e.g., a security or an index-linked instrument) at an agreed-upon exercise price prior to the option’s expiration, and a put option is “out of the money” when this exercise price is below the current market price of the underlier. Conversely, a call option gives the purchaser the right to buy the option’s underlier at an agreed-upon exercise price prior to the option’s expiration, and a call option is “out of the money” when this exercise price is above the current market price of the underlier. The Fund expects to sell out-of-the-money put and call options with the same underliers and expiration dates in what is referred to as a “strangle” strategy.Generally, a sold “strangle” position would realize gains from collected premiums when its underlier has a market price that is between the exercise prices of the associated put and call options. Losses may be experienced to the extent that the underlier has a market price that is either below the exercise price of the put option (subtracting any premiums from the exercise price) or above the exercise price of the call option (adding any premiums to the exercise price), i.e., if the strangle position expires “in the money.”The Fund expects to use total return swaps to gain exposure to the above-described option strategy. Income realized with respect to this strategy is generally expected to be characterized as ordinary income, which the Fund may periodically distribute to shareholders. The Fund’s transactions in swaps will be subject to special tax rules, which could affect the amount, timing and character of distributions to you. As a result of these rules, the Fund’s investment in total return swaps is expected to result in the Fund realizing more ordinary income subject to tax at ordinary income tax rates than if the Fund did not invest in such swaps.During periods in which the U.S. equity markets are generally unchanged or falling, or in a modestly rising market where the income from premiums exceeds the aggregate appreciation of the underlying index over its exercise price, a diversified portfolio receiving premiums from its call option writing strategy may outperform the same portfolio without such an options strategy. However, in rising markets where the aggregate appreciation of the underlying index over its exercise price exceeds the income from premiums, a portfolio with a call writing strategy could significantly underperform the same portfolio without the options.The Investment Adviser may decide to sell a position for various reasons, including valuation and price considerations, readjustment of the Investment Adviser’s outlook based on subsequent events, the Investment Adviser’s ongoing assessment of the quality and effectiveness of management, if new investment ideas offer the potential for better risk/reward profiles than existing holdings, or for risk management purposes.The Investment Adviser employs a fundamental investment process that may integrate environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) factors alongside traditional fundamental factors. No one factor or consideration is determinative in the fundamental investment process.The Fund’s benchmarks are the Russell 1000® Value Index and the ICE BofAML BB to B U.S. High Yield Constrained Index.
