Investment objective & strategy
As of April 29, 2025 · prospectusObjective. This Fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the total return of an index that tracks the U.S. high yield corporate bond market.
Strategy. Under normal circumstances, this Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in non-investment grade (high yield/high risk) debt instruments, including instruments with characteristics of non-investment grade debt instruments (such as derivatives). Non-investment grade (high yield/high risk) debt instruments are sometimes called junk bonds. These instruments are those that are included in the Bloomberg US High-Yield 2% Issuer Capped Bond Index (High Yield Index) or have economic characteristics similar to securities included in that index. The sub-adviser seeks to match the total return of the High Yield Index, before taking into account Fund costs (fees and expenses). The High Yield Index is an index that is an issuer constrained version of the Bloomberg US Corporate High-Yield Bond Index which covers … Under normal circumstances, this Fund invests at least 80% of its assets in non-investment grade (high yield/high risk) debt instruments, including instruments with characteristics of non-investment grade debt instruments (such as derivatives). Non-investment grade (high yield/high risk) debt instruments are sometimes called junk bonds. These instruments are those that are included in the Bloomberg US High-Yield 2% Issuer Capped Bond Index (High Yield Index) or have economic characteristics similar to securities included in that index. The sub-adviser seeks to match the total return of the High Yield Index, before taking into account Fund costs (fees and expenses). The High Yield Index is an index that is an issuer constrained version of the Bloomberg US Corporate High-Yield Bond Index which covers the U.S. dollar-denominated, non-investment grade, fixed-rate taxable corporate bond market and limits issuer exposures to a maximum of 2% and redistributes the excess market value index-wide on a pro-rata basis. The High Yield Index represents the securities of the U.S. dollar-denominated non-investment grade bond market. The sub-adviser does not intend to purchase all of the securities in the High Yield Index, but rather will utilize a sampling methodology. Sampling means that the sub-adviser will select securities that represent a sample of securities in the High Yield Index that have a similar investment profile as the entire High Yield Index in terms of key risk factors, performance attributes and other characteristics. The sub-adviser generally expects the Fund to hold less than the total number of securities in the High Yield Index, but reserves the right to hold as many securities as it believes necessary to meet the Funds investment goal. The quantity of holdings in the Fund will be based on a number of factors, including the Funds asset size. The Fund will not concentrate, except to the same approximate extent as its index may concentrate in the securities of a particular industry or group of industries (also known as a sector). The Fund will not deviate from the above noted strategies at any time for any reason. The Fund may lend its portfolio holdings to certain financial institutions.
