Investment Objective The investment seeks total return. The fund invests primarily in corporate bonds. Its focus is on corporate bonds that have investment grade credit ratings from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (NRSRO). The bonds the fund managers select for the portfolio are typically rated BBB- and above. The fund may also invest in unrated bonds, if the fund managers believe their credit quality is comparable to those that have investment grade ratings. It may also invest up to 20% of its net assets in high yield corporate bonds ("junk bonds").
