Morgan Investment Management Inc. (the sub-adviser), seeks to achieve the portfolios objective by allocating, under normal circumstances, substantially all of the portfolios assets to a mix of asset classes and related futures contracts. Generally, the portfolios long-term strategic asset allocation is expected to be as follows: 25% of portfolio net assets in global equity securities and 75% of portfolio net assets in fixed-income securities. The portfolio managers determine the portfolios asset allocations. The portfolio managers will generally allocate to separately managed sleeves comprised of individual fixed-income and equity securities. Each separately managed sleeve is managed by distinct investment teams at the sub-adviser specializing in specific equity or fixed-income strategies, as well as up to a maximum of 10% of net assets allocated by the portfolio managers to mutual funds and exchange traded funds (ETFs) advised by the sub-adviser. In addition to the strategic asset allocation, the portfolio utilizes a tactical asset allocation strategy that seeks to generate additional return by over/underweighting asset classes that the sub-adviser believes are poised to appreciate/depreciate. In implementing the tactical asset allocation strategy, the sub-adviser has the ability to adjust the portfolios allocation of assets as follows: 18% to 32% of portfolio net assets in global equity exposure and 68% to 82% of portfolio net assets in fixed-income and cash exposure. The sub-advisers tactical asset allocation process incorporates a wide range of qualitative and quantitative inputs. Using these inputs, the sub-advisers portfolio management team assesses the relative attractiveness of different asset classes around the world and determines the appropriate portfolio positions to reflect their tactical views. The tactical positions are typically implemented by buying and selling futures contracts, but may also include the use of mutual funds and ETFs to access markets that lack active futures contracts (such as emerging markets equity, high yield bonds, real estate investment trusts (REITs) and emerging markets debt). Tactical currency positions may be implemented through the use of derivative instruments including futures and forwards (deliverable and non-deliverable). The combined position size for U.S. REITs and international REITs will not exceed 5% at time of purchase. The combined position size for emerging markets equity and emerging markets debt will not exceed 5% at time of purchase. The portfolios equity allocation may include small, medium or large capitalization companies. The portfolios fixed income allocation typically includes corporate bonds, U.S. treasury obligations, including treasury coupon strips and treasury principal strips, and other U.S. government and agency securities, asset-backed securities and mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities. The portfolios fixed-income allocation also may include non-agency high yield debt securities (commonly known as junk bonds). Junk bonds are high risk debt securities rated below investment grade (that is, securities rated below BBB by Standard & Poors or Fitch or below Baa by Moodys or, if unrated, determined to be of comparable quality by the portfolios sub-adviser). As part of its investment process, the sub-adviser seeks to assess the impact of environmental, social and governance (ESG) factors on many issuers in the universe in which the portfolio invests. The sub-advisers assessment is based on an analysis of what it views as key opportunities and risks across industries to seek to identify financially material issues with respect to the portfolios investments in securities and ascertain key issues that merit engagement with issuers. These assessments may not be conclusive and securities of issuers may be purchased and retained by the portfolio for reasons other than material ESG factors while the portfolio may divest or not invest in securities of issuers that may be positively impacted by such factors. The portfolio may invest in privately issued securities, including those that are normally purchased pursuant to Rule 144A or Regulation S promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
