Fund Description

The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in bonds, including corporate and government bonds. The Fund typically invests in US bonds. Under normal circumstances, the Fund’s dollar-weighted average maturity does not exceed three years. The Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in bonds rated within the four highest grades assigned by a national bond rating agency (e.g., Standard & Poor’s: AAA, AA, A, or BBB) at the time of purchase, inclusive of cash, and may invest up to 20% of its net assets in unrated and high-yield bonds (“junk bonds”). Investment-grade investments may include “split rated” securities, which are securities that are rated as investment grade by at least one credit rating agency but rated below investment grade by another agency.
