Fund Description

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings for investment purposes) in a diversified portfolio of high-yield (high risk) bonds commonly known as “junk bonds.” The Fund will provide shareholders with at least 60 days’ prior notice of any change in this investment policy.High-yield bonds are debt instruments that, at the time of purchase, are not rated by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”) or are rated below investment grade (e.g., rated below BBB- by S&P Global Ratings or Baa3 by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.) or have an equivalent rating by a NRSRO. The Fund defines high-yield bonds to include: bank loans; payment-in-kind securities; fixed and variable floating rate and deferred interest debt obligations; zero-coupon bonds and debt obligations provided they are unrated or rated below investment grade. In evaluating the quality of a particular high-yield bond for investment by the Fund, the sub-adviser (the “Sub-Adviser”) does not rely exclusively on credit ratings assigned by a NRSRO. The Sub-Adviser will utilize a security’s credit rating as simply one indication of an issuer’s creditworthiness and will principally rely upon its own analysis of any security. The Sub-Adviser does not have restrictions on the rating level of the securities held in the Fund and may purchase and hold securities in default. There are no restrictions on the average maturity of the Fund’s portfolio or the maturity of any single investment. Maturities may vary widely depending on the Sub-Adviser’s assessment of interest rate trends and other economic or market factors.Any remaining assets may be invested in investment grade debt instruments; common and preferred stocks; U.S. government securities; money market instruments; and debt instruments of foreign (non-U.S.) issuers, including securities of companies in emerging markets. The Fund may invest in derivatives, including structured debt instruments, dollar roll transactions, swap agreements, including credit default swaps and interest rate swaps, and options on swap agreements. The Fund typically uses derivatives to reduce exposure to other risks, such as interest rate or currency risk, to substitute for taking a position in the underlying asset, and/or to enhance returns in the Fund. The Fund may invest in companies of any market capitalization size.The Fund may invest in other investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”), to the extent permitted under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder, and under the terms of applicable no-action relief or exemptive orders granted thereunder.In choosing investments for the Fund, the Sub-Adviser combines extensive company and industry research with relative value analysis to identify high-yield bonds expected to provide above-average returns. Relative value analysis is intended to enhance returns by moving from overvalued to undervalued sectors of the bond market. The Sub-Adviser’s approach to decision making includes contributions from individual portfolio managers responsible for specific industry sectors.In evaluating investments for the Fund, the Sub-Adviser takes into account a wide variety of factors and considerations to determine whether any or all of those factors or considerations might have a material effect on the value, risks, or prospects of an investment. Among the factors considered, the Sub-Adviser expects typically to take into account environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) factors to determine whether one or more factors may have a material effect. In considering ESG factors, the Sub-Adviser intends to rely primarily on factors identified through its proprietary empirical research and on third-party evaluations of an issuer’s ESG standing. ESG factors will be only one of many considerations in the Sub-Adviser’s evaluation of any potential investment; the extent to which ESG factors will affect the Sub-Adviser’s decision to invest in an issuer, if at all, will depend on the analysis and judgment of the Sub-Adviser.The Sub-Adviser may sell securities for a variety of reasons, such as to secure gains, limit losses, or redeploy assets into opportunities believed to be more promising.The Fund may lend portfolio securities on a short-term or long-term basis, up to 33 1∕3% of its total assets.
