Quality Breakdown
Ratings are based on S&P, Moody's or Fitch, as applicable. A credit rating is an assessment provided by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO) of the creditworthiness of an issuer with respect to debt obligations, including specific securities, money market instruments or other debts. Ratings are measured on a scale that generally ranges from AAA (highest) to D (lowest); ratings are subject to change without notice. NR indicates the debtor was not rated, and should not be interpreted as indicating low quality. If securities are rated differently by the rating agencies, the higher rating is applied. Credit ratings are based largely on the rating agency's investment analysis at the time of rating and the rating assigned to any particular security is not necessarily a reflection of the issuer's current financial condition. The rating assigned to a security by a rating agency does not necessarily reflect its assessment of the volatility of a security's market value or of the liquidity of an investment in the security. For more information on the rating methodology, please visit the following NRSRO websites: www.standardandpoors.com and select 'Understanding Ratings' under Rating Resources on the homepage; www.moodys.com and select 'Rating Methodologies' under Research and Ratings on the homepage; www.fitchratings.com and select 'Ratings Definitions' on the homepage.

Fund Documents
About risk
As with any mutual fund investment, loss of money is a risk of investing. An
investment in the Fund is not a deposit in a bank and is not insured or
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
governmental agency. The risks associated with an investment in the Fund
can increase during times of significant market volatility. The principal risks
of investing in the Fund are:
Market Risk. The market values of the Fund’s investments, and
therefore the value of the Fund’s shares, will go up and down, sometimes
rapidly or unpredictably. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industry or
section of the economy, or it may affect the market as a whole. The value of
the Fund’s investments may go up or down due to general market
conditions that are not specifically related to the particular issuer, such as
real or perceived adverse economic conditions, changes in the general
outlook for revenues or corporate earnings, changes in interest or currency
rates, regional or global instability, natural or environmental disasters,
widespread disease or other public health issues, war, military conflict, acts
of terrorism, economic crisis or adverse investor sentiment generally. During
a general downturn in the financial markets, multiple asset classes may
decline in value. When markets perform well, there can be no assurance
that specific investments held by the Fund will rise in value.
Debt Securities Risk. The prices of debt securities held by the Fund
will be affected by changes in interest rates, the creditworthiness of the
issuer and other factors. An increase in prevailing interest rates typically
causes the value of existing debt securities to fall and often has a greater
impact on longer–duration debt securities and higher quality debt securities.
Falling interest rates will cause the Fund to reinvest the proceeds of debt
securities that have been repaid by the issuer at lower interest rates. Falling
interest rates may also reduce the Fund’s distributable income because
interest payments on floating rate debt instruments held by the Fund will
decline. The Fund could lose money on investments in debt securities if the
issuer or borrower fails to meet its obligations to make interest payments
and/or to repay principal in a timely manner. Changes in an issuer’s financial
strength, the market’s perception of such strength or in the credit rating of
the issuer or the security may affect the value of debt securities. The
Adviser’s credit analysis may fail to anticipate such changes, which could
result in buying a debt security at an inopportune time or failing to sell a
debt security in advance of a price decline or other credit event.
Changing Fixed Income Market Conditions Risk. Increases in the
federal funds and equivalent foreign rates or other changes to monetary
policy or regulatory actions may expose fixed income markets to heightened
volatility and reduced liquidity for certain fixed income investments,
particularly those with longer maturities. It is difficult to predict the impact of
interest rate changes on various markets. In addition, decreases in fixed
income dealer market–making capacity may also potentially lead to
heightened volatility and reduced liquidity in the fixed income markets. As a
result, the value of the Fund’s investments and share price may decline.
Changes in central bank policies could also result in higher than normal
redemptions by shareholders, which could potentially increase the Fund’s
portfolio turnover rate and transaction costs.
Mortgage– and Asset–Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage– and
asset–backed securities, including collateralized debt obligations and
collateralized mortgage obligations, are subject to prepayment or call risk,
which is the risk that a borrower’s payments may be received earlier or later
than expected due to changes in prepayment rates on underlying loans. This
could result in the Fund reinvesting these early payments at lower interest
rates, thereby reducing the Fund’s income. Mortgage– and asset–backed
securities also are subject to extension risk, which is the risk that an
unexpected rise in interest rates could reduce the rate of prepayments,
causing the price of the mortgage– and asset–backed securities and the
Fund’s share price to fall. An unexpectedly high rate of defaults on the
mortgages held by a mortgage pool may adversely affect the value of
mortgage–backed securities and could result in losses to the Fund.
Privately–issued mortgage–backed securities and asset–backed securities
may be less liquid than other types of securities and the Fund may be
unable to sell these securities at the time or price it desires. During periods
of market stress or high redemptions, the Fund may be forced to sell these
securities at significantly reduced prices, resulting in losses. Liquid
privately–issued mortgage–backed securities and asset–backed securities
can become illiquid during periods of market stress. Privately–issued
mortgage–related securities are not subject to the same underwriting
requirements as those with government or government–sponsored entity
guarantees and, therefore, mortgage loans underlying privately–issued
mortgage–related securities may have less favorable collateral, credit risk,
liquidity risk or other underwriting characteristics, and wider variances in
interest rate, term, size, purpose and borrower characteristics. The Fund
may invest in mortgage pools that include subprime mortgages, which are
loans made to borrowers with weakened credit histories or with lower
capacity to make timely payments on their mortgages. Liquidity risk is even
greater for mortgage pools that include subprime mortgages.
Zero Coupon or Pay–In–Kind Securities Risk. The value, interest
rates, and liquidity of non–cash paying instruments, such as zero coupon
and pay–in–kind securities, are subject to greater fluctuation than other
types of securities. The higher yields and interest rates on pay–in–kind
securities reflect the payment deferral and increased credit risk associated
with such instruments and that such investments may represent a higher
credit risk than loans that periodically pay interest.
When–Issued, Delayed Delivery and Forward Commitment
Risks. When–issued and delayed delivery transactions subject the Fund to
market risk because the value or yield of a security at delivery may be more
or less than the purchase price or yield generally available when delivery
occurs, and counterparty risk because the Fund relies on the buyer or seller,
as the case may be, to consummate the transaction. These transactions
also have a leveraging effect on the Fund because the Fund commits to
purchase securities that it does not have to pay for until a later date, which
increases the Fund’s overall investment exposure and, as a result, its
volatility.
TBA Transactions Risk. TBA transactions involve the risk of loss if the
securities received are less favorable than what was anticipated by the Fund
when entering into the TBA transaction, or if the counterparty fails to deliver
the securities. When the Fund enters into a short sale of a TBA mortgage it
does not own, the Fund may have to purchase deliverable mortgages to
settle the short sale at a higher price than anticipated, thereby causing a
loss. As there is no limit on how much the price of mortgage securities can
increase, the Fund’s exposure is unlimited. The Fund may not always be
able to purchase mortgage securities to close out the short position at a
particular time or at an acceptable price. In addition, taking short positions
results in a form of leverage, which could increase the volatility of the Fund’s
share price.
Dollar Roll Transactions Risk. Dollar roll transactions occur in
connection with TBA transactions and involve the risk that the market value
of the securities the Fund is required to purchase may decline below the
agreed upon purchase price of those securities. Dollar roll transactions add
a form of leverage to the Fund’s portfolio, which may make the Fund’s
returns more volatile and increase the risk of loss. In addition, dollar roll
transactions may increase the Fund’s portfolio turnover, which may result in
increased brokerage costs and may lower the Fund’s actual return.
LIBOR Transition Risk. The Fund may have investments in financial
instruments that utilize the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) as the
reference or benchmark rate for variable interest rate calculations. LIBOR is
intended to measure the rate generally at which banks can lend and borrow
from one another in the relevant currency on an unsecured basis.
Regulators and financial industry working groups in several jurisdictions
have worked over the past several years to identify alternative reference
rates (“ARRs”) to replace LIBOR and to assist with the transition to the new
ARRs. For example, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York has identified the
Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) as the intended replacement to
USD LIBOR and foreign regulators have proposed other interbank offered
rates, such as the Sterling Overnight Index Average (“SONIA”) and other
replacement rates, which could also be adopted. Consequently, the
publication of most LIBOR rates ceased at the end of 2021, but a selection
of widely used USD LIBOR rates continues to be published until June 2023
to allow for an orderly transition away from these rates. Additionally, key
regulators have instructed banking institutions to cease entering into new
contracts that reference these USD LIBOR settings after December 31,
2021, subject to certain limited exceptions.
There remains uncertainty and risks relating to the continuing LIBOR
transition and its effects on the Fund and the instruments in which the Fund
invests. For example, there can be no assurance that the composition or
characteristics of any ARRs or financial instruments in which the Fund
invests that utilize ARRs will be similar to or produce the same value or
economic equivalence as LIBOR or that these instruments will have the
same volume or liquidity. Additionally, although regulators have generally
prohibited banking institutions from entering into new contracts that
reference those USD LIBOR settings that continue to exist, there remains
uncertainty and risks relating to certain “legacy” USD LIBOR instruments
that were issued or entered into before December 31, 2021 and the
process by which a replacement interest rate will be identified and
implemented into these instruments when USD LIBOR is ultimately
discontinued. The effects of such uncertainty and risks in “legacy” USD
LIBOR instruments held by the Fund could result in losses to the Fund.
U.S. Government Obligations Risk. Obligations of U.S. Government
agencies and authorities receive varying levels of support and may not be
backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, which could
affect the Fund’s ability to recover should they default. No assurance can be
given that the U.S. Government will provide financial support to its agencies
and authorities if it is not obligated by law to do so.
Liquidity Risk. The Fund may be unable to sell illiquid investments at
the time or price it desires and, as a result, could lose its entire investment
in such investments. Liquid securities can become illiquid during periods of
market stress. If a significant amount of the Fund’s securities become
illiquid, the Fund may not be able to timely pay redemption proceeds and
may need to sell securities at significantly reduced prices.
Derivatives Risk. The value of a derivative instrument depends largely
on (and is derived from) the value of an underlying security, currency,
commodity, interest rate, index or other asset (each referred to as an
underlying asset). In addition to risks relating to the underlying assets, the
use of derivatives may include other, possibly greater, risks, including
counterparty, leverage and liquidity risks. Counterparty risk is the risk that
the counterparty to the derivative contract will default on its obligation to pay
the Fund the amount owed or otherwise perform under the derivative
contract. Derivatives create leverage risk because they do not require
payment up front equal to the economic exposure created by holding a
position in the derivative. As a result, an adverse change in the value of the
underlying asset could result in the Fund sustaining a loss that is
substantially greater than the amount invested in the derivative or the
anticipated value of the underlying asset, which may make the Fund’s
returns more volatile and increase the risk of loss. Derivative instruments
may also be less liquid than more traditional investments and the Fund may
be unable to sell or close out its derivative positions at a desirable time or
price. This risk may be more acute under adverse market conditions, during
which the Fund may be most in need of liquidating its derivative positions.
Derivatives may also be harder to value, less tax efficient and subject to
changing government regulation that could impact the Fund’s ability to use
certain derivatives or their cost. Derivatives strategies may not always be
successful. For example, derivatives used for hedging or to gain or limit
exposure to a particular market segment may not provide the expected
benefits, particularly during adverse market conditions.
Rule 144A Securities and Other Exempt Securities Risk. The
market for Rule 144A and other securities exempt from certain registration
requirements typically is less active than the market for publicly–traded
securities. Rule 144A and other exempt securities, which are also known as
privately issued securities, carry the risk that their liquidity may become
impaired and the Fund may be unable to dispose of the securities at a
desirable time or price.
Financial Markets Regulatory Risk. Policy changes by the U.S.
government or its regulatory agencies and political events within the U.S.
and abroad may, among other things, affect investor and consumer
confidence and increase volatility in the financial markets, perhaps suddenly
and to a significant degree, which may adversely impact the Fund’s
operations, universe of potential investment options, and return potential.
Active Trading Risk. Active trading of portfolio securities may result in
added expenses, a lower return and increased tax liability.
Management Risk. The Fund is actively managed and depends
heavily on the Adviser’s judgment about markets, interest rates or the
attractiveness, relative values, liquidity, or potential appreciation of particular
investments made for the Fund’s portfolio. The Fund could experience
losses if these judgments prove to be incorrect. Additionally, legislative,
regulatory, or tax developments may adversely affect management of the
Fund and, therefore, the ability of the Fund to achieve its investment
objective.
