As of April 28, 2025 · prospectusObjective. The Portfolios investment goal is high total return with only moderate price risk.
Strategy. The Portfolio attempts to achieve its goal by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its net assets in corporate bonds. For purposes of this policy, corporate bonds include any corporate fixed income security. The subadviser seeks to enhance the Portfolios performance by allocating relatively more of its portfolio to the security type that the subadviser expects to offer the best balance between current income and risk. The subadviser may lengthen or shorten duration from time to time based on its interest rate outlook, but the Portfolio has no set duration parameters.

The subadviser may lengthen or shorten duration from time to time based on its interest rate outlook, but the Portfolio has no set duration parameters. Duration measures the price sensitivity of a fixed income security to changes in interest rates. The Portfolio invests primarily in investment grade fixed income securities, but may invest up to 35% of its net assets in securities rated below investment grade, or junk bonds, including loan participations and assignments, which are rated below investment grade or are deemed by the subadviser to be below investment grade. Junk bonds are considered speculative. The Portfolio may also invest in foreign securities (up to 20% of net assets); and when-issued and delayed delivery transactions. The Portfolio may invest in illiquid investments (up to 15% of assets). The Portfolio may use derivative contracts to implement elements of its investment strategy in an attempt to: manage duration of the Portfolio, gain exposure to certain indices, currencies and interest rates based on anticipated changes in the volatility of Portfolio assets, obtain premiums or realize gains from the trading of a derivative instrument, or hedge against potential losses in the Portfolio. Such derivatives may include: credit default swaps and CDX-swaps (up to 5% of total assets); and up to 10% of total assets for all other derivatives, including options, futures, interest rate futures, currency swaps, total return swaps, interest rate swaps, caps, floors and collars.
