  • Intensive fundamental credit research within a top-down framework underpins the investment process.
  • Security selection focuses on taking appropriate levels of risk as the economy, market, and industry cycles evolve.
  • The Fund invests in companies believed to have seasoned management, solid financials, good liquidity, and appropriate leverage, and/or asset protection over market cycles.
  • Quantitative techniques are used to monitor portfolio risks.
  • Investors invest in shares of the Fund. The Fund is suitable for long-term investors seeking income and capital appreciation and prepared to accept a moderate level of volatility.

Risk Considerations

Interest Rate: The values of debt instruments may rise or fall in response to changes in interest rates, and this risk may be enhanced for securities with longer maturities.
Currency Rate: Fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign currencies may negatively affect the value of the portfolio's shares.
Counterparty: There is risk that a party upon whom the portfolio relies to complete a transaction will default.
Credit Risk: The issuers of securities or similar instruments that we buy may not be able to make payments, which could lead to an investment loss. This risk is greater for investments with a medium or low credit rating.
Derivatives Risk: A small movement in the value of the underlying asset may cause a large movement in the value of the derivative which can result in a loss to the Fund.
Investment Risk: Investing is subject to risk, including the risk of possible loss of principal.
Prospectus: For additional information on risks, please see the fund's prospectus.
