About this fund
Fund objectives
- The Fund seeks to provide total return while generating a moderate level of income by investing primarily in bonds of issuers in emerging market countries.
- The Fund employs an “active management” strategy, and while the Fund will invest in components of the J.P. Morgan EMBI Global Diversified Index (the “Index”), its investment manager will follow distinct approaches in managing the Fund’s assets.
- The Fund invests in fixed income securities of various maturities, yields, and qualities. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets in fixed income securities of issuers that are tied economically to emerging market countries. The Fund seeks to have a majority of its assets denominated in or hedged back to the U.S. dollar but has the ability to invest in bonds denominated in a local currency on an unhedged basis. Emerging market bonds include sovereign debt securities, which include fixed income securities that are issued or guaranteed by foreign governments or their agencies, authorities, political subdivisions or instrumentalities, or other supranational agencies, as well as debt securities issued or guaranteed by foreign corporations and foreign financial institutions.
- The Investment Manager may in its discretion restrict the extent to which the Fund’s holdings deviate from the Index constituents on a security selection and fixed income sector basis. The Fund may take active fixed income sector views with the focus on bond specific selection. The extent to which the Fund can outperform the Index may be restricted by constraints applied by the Investment Manager which limit the potential volatility of the difference between the return of the Fund and the return of the Index. Such constraints may change or be removed from time to time at the Investment Manager’s discretion and depending on market environments.
