    A word about risk: Investing in foreign denominated and/or domiciled securities may involve heightened risk due to currency fluctuations, and economic and political risks,which may be enhanced in emerging markets. Mortgage and asset-backed securities may be sensitive to changes in interest rates, subject to early repayment risk, and theiralue may fluctuate in response to the markets perception of issuer creditworthiness; while generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee there is nssurance that private guarantors will meet their obligations. Sovereign securities are generally backed by the issuing government, obligations of U.S. Government agenciesuthorities are supported by varying degrees but are generally not backed by the full faith of the U.S. Government; portfolios that invest in such securities are not guaranteed

    will fluctuate in value. Derivatives may involve certain costs and risks such as liquidity, interest rate, market, credit, management and the risk that a position could not be closwhen most advantageous. Investing in derivatives could lose more than the amount invested. The Fund is non-diversified, which means that it may concentrate its assets in amaller number of issuers than a diversified fund.

    he value of most bond funds and fixed income securities are impacted by changes in interest rates. Bonds and bond funds with longer durations tend to be more sensitive amore volatile than securities with shorter durations; bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise.
