The fund invests primarily in fixed income securities, including, but not limited to, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities and government and agency bonds and notes. The fund’s investments may include U.S. dollar-denominated instruments issued in the U.S. by foreign banks and branches and foreign corporations. Normally, the fund will invest at least 80% (measured at the time of investment) of the value of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, either directly or through other investment companies, in these types of instruments.
