Fixed income securities in which the Fund invest include U.S. government debt, U.S. government agency debt, taxable municipal bonds, corporate debt, non-corporate debt (including sovereign, supranational, foreign agency, or other government debt), and mortgage and asset backed securities. The Fund primarily invests in U.S. dollar denominated securities. The investment adviser intends to maintain in the Fund a minimum average overall portfolio quality rating of A3 by Moodys and/or A- by Standard & Poors, excluding unrated securities. In managing the Funds portfolio, the investment adviser seeks to generally capture the attributes of the Bloomberg Intermediate U.S. Government/Credit A+ Index (the Bloomberg Benchmark), including average effective duration, duration distribution of individual securities, quality, and convexity, while attempting to realize additional returns through sector allocation and security selection. The investment adviser seeks to manage the Funds portfolio-wide weighted average effective duration typically within +/- 20% of the effective duration of the Bloomberg Benchmark. Under certain market conditions, the Funds portfolio may have a longer or shorter weighted average effective duration. As of July 31, 2025, the effective duration of the Bloomberg Benchmark was 3.66. The investment adviser seeks to maintain the Funds portfolio-wide weighted average maturity between one to 10 years. From time to time, the Funds investments may be focused on issuers in the banking industry and/or the industrials sector. The Fund may invest in other investment companies, such as mutual funds and exchange-traded funds. Show less
