Description

Fund Objective

This fund seeks the balanced accomplishment of three objectives: long-term growth of capital, conservation of principal and current income.

Distinguishing Characteristics

This globally diversified balanced fund has the ability to invest generally between 45% and 75% of its assets in equities, with an emphasis on well-established companies, including those paying dividends and those with attractive growth prospects. The diversified and predominantly high-quality fixed income portion of the portfolio has the potential to provide income and limit volatility.

Types of Investments

The fund normally maintains at least 45% of its assets in common stocks and other equity investments, with a focus on medium- and larger-sized companies. Typically, the fund also invests at least 25% of its assets in investment-grade (BBB/Baa and above) fixed-income securities (or unrated, but determined by the fund’s investment adviser to be of equivalent quality), including government/agency, corporate, mortgage- and asset-backed securities and money market instruments.

Holdings Outside the U.S.

The fund normally invests a significant portion of its assets outside the U.S., including in emerging market countries. Bonds issued outside the U.S. are typically denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars.

Portfolio Restrictions

Most of the fund's fixed-income securities are investment-grade (rated BBB-/Baa3 or better, or unrated but determined to be of equivalent quality by the fund's investment adviser). However, the fund may invest up to 5% of its assets in lower quality, higher yielding debt securities (rated BB+/Ba1 or below, or unrated but determined to be of equivalent quality), including securities convertible into common stocks.
