Investment objective & strategy

As of July 25, 2025 · prospectus

Objective. The fund seeks to provide high income and some capital appreciation.

Strategy. The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in bonds. Any derivatives that provide exposure to the investment focus suggested by the funds name, or to one or more market risk factors associated with the investment focus suggested by the funds name, are counted (as applicable) toward compliance with the funds 80% investment policy. The fund may invest in a variety of holdings in an effort to enhance income and achieve some capital growth. The fund shifts its investments among the following sectors based on market conditions and the investment advisers outlook: ? government and agency obligations of the U.S. and foreign countries (including emerging market countries); ? corporate bonds of … The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in bonds. Any derivatives that provide exposure to the investment focus suggested by the funds name, or to one or more market risk factors associated with the investment focus suggested by the funds name, are counted (as applicable) toward compliance with the funds 80% investment policy. The fund may invest in a variety of holdings in an effort to enhance income and achieve some capital growth. The fund shifts its investments among the following sectors based on market conditions and the investment advisers outlook: ? government and agency obligations of the U.S. and foreign countries (including emerging market countries); ? corporate bonds of issuers in the U.S. and foreign countries (including emerging market countries); ? U.S. dollar and non-U.S. dollar-denominated debt instruments of issuers located in foreign countries (including emerging market countries); ? mortgage-backed securities (including commercial mortgage-backed securities), and asset-backed securities (including collateralized mortgage obligations and collateralized loan obligations); ? bank loans (including loan participations and assignments); ? convertible bonds and other convertible securities; and ? preferred stocks. Under normal conditions, the fund invests at least 40% of its net assets (unless foreign market conditions are not deemed favorable by the investment adviser, in which case the fund would invest at least 30% of its net assets) in securities issued by governments or companies that are organized or located outside the U.S. or doing a substantial amount of business outside the U.S. The fund may hold non-U.S. currencies without holding any bonds or other securities denominated in those currencies. There is no limit on the funds investments in U.S. dollar-denominated foreign debt instruments. Up to 65% of the funds net assets can be invested in securities and other holdings that are rated below investment grade (below BBB, or an equivalent rating) or are not rated by credit rating agencies (commonly referred to as high yield or junk bonds). The below investment-grade portion of the funds portfolio may consist of the following: U.S. dollar-denominated debt instrument in emerging markets (not to exceed 25% of the funds net assets); non-U.S. dollar-denominated debt instruments in emerging markets (not to exceed 40% of the funds net assets); bank loans (not to exceed 20% of the funds net assets); and convertible securities and preferred stocks (not to exceed 15% of the funds net assets). Ratings will be determined, at the time of purchase, by at least one credit rating agency or, if not so rated, a comparable rating by the adviser. If a security is split-rated (i.e., rated investment grade by at least one credit rating agency, but below investment grade by another credit rating agency), the higher rating will be used. The fund may purchase securities of any maturity and its weighted average maturity will vary with market conditions. The fund may use a variety of derivatives, such as futures, forwards, and swaps for a number of purposes, such as for exposure or hedging. The fund specifically uses interest rate futures, interest rate futures options, forward currency exchange contracts, credit default swaps, credit default swaps indexes (CDX), interest rate swaps, inflation swaps, and currency options. Interest rate futures and interest rate futures options would typically be used to manage the funds exposure to interest rate changes or to adjust portfolio duration. Forward currency exchange contracts would be used to gain exposure to certain currencies expected to increase or decrease in value relative to other currencies or to protect the funds foreign bond holdings from adverse currency movements relative to the U.S. dollar. Credit default swaps can be used to protect the value of certain portfolio holdings, as an alternative to cash bonds, and to manage the funds overall credit risk exposure. CDXs are primarily used to hedge the portfolios overall credit risk or to efficiently gain exposure to certain sectors or asset classes (such as high yield bonds). Currency options are primarily used in an effort to take advantage of currencies that are expected to appreciate in value. Inflation swaps, which are tied to a designated inflation index such as the Consumer Price Index (CPI), would typically be used to manage the funds inflation risk.
