The Fund also intends to invest in derivatives, including (but not limited to) futures, swaps, options on swaps and other derivative instruments, which are used primarily to hedge the Funds portfolio risks, manage the Funds duration and/or gain exposure to certain fixed income securities. 100% of the Funds portfolio will be invested in U.S. dollar-denominated securities. The Fund may gain exposure to Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities through several methods, including by utilizing to-be-announced (TBA) agreements in Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities or through the use of reverse repurchase agreements. TBA agreements for Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities are standardized contracts for future delivery of fixed-rate mortgage pass-through securities in which the exact mortgage pools to be delivered are not specified until shortly before settlement. A reverse repurchase agreement enables the Fund to gain exposure to specified pools of Agency Mortgage-Backed Securities by purchasing them on a forward settling basis and using the proceeds of the reverse repurchase agreement to settle the trade. The Fund may also seek to obtain exposure to fixed income investments through investments in affiliated or unaffiliated investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (ETFs). The Funds investments in non-U.S. Government Securities must be rated AAA or Aaa by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) at the time of purchase, or, if unrated, must be determined by the Investment Adviser to be of comparable credit quality. The Funds target duration range under normal interest rate conditions is expected to approximate that of the Bloomberg U.S. Government/Mortgage Index, plus or minus one year, and over the past five years ended June 30, 2025, the duration of this index has ranged between 4.77 and 6.21 years. Duration is a measure of a debt securitys price sensitivity to changes in interest rates. The longer the duration of the Fund (or an individual debt security), the more sensitive its market price to changes in interest rates. For example, if market interest rates increase by 1%, the market price of a debt security with a positive duration of 3 years will generally decrease by approximately 3%. Conversely, a 1% decline in market interest rates will generally result in an increase of approximately 3% of that securitys market price. The Investment Adviser measures the Funds performance against the Bloomberg U.S. Government/Mortgage Index. Fixed Income Investment Philosophy: Our process: ?
