Fund profile
As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2
The Funds investment objective is to seek income and capital appreciation to produce a high total return.
The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of fixed income securities selected through a relative value process that combines top-down macroeconomic analysis with bottom-up security research, managing interest rate risk by maintaining average duration within two years of the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index. The portfolio encompasses U.S. government and agency securities, investment-grade corporate and non-U.S. dollar-denominated debt, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities, inflation-linked investments, loans, and structured instruments including CLOs, with active and frequent trading to rotate sector exposure based on assessed relative value. The fund may use derivatives including futures, forwards, options, and swaps to adjust interest rate exposure, hedge risk, or enhance returns. Because security selection depends on the portfolio management team's analysis and market assessments, fund performance will diverge from any benchmark.

Portfolio turnover 453.00% · as of 2026 Q2
Allocation
Asset groups · long / short shown separately, never netted · 2026 Q2
| Bonds | 57.83% |
| Securitized | 56.00% |
| Cash & short-term | 1.91% |
| Loans | 1.28% |
| Derivatives | -0.02% |
These positions come to 117.00% of the fund's net assets. This counts only what the fund reported holding — the holdings disclosure covers assets, not liabilities such as borrowings — so it is not expected to reconcile to 100%.
The outer band is exposure held short — written against the portfolio rather than part of it, which is why it sits outside the ring and why the two are never netted into one figure.
Derivatives are shown at market value, not notional exposure.
Sector allocation
The same holdings as Allocation above, grouped by market sector instead of asset type · as of 2026 Q2
| Securitized | 47.9% |
| Government | 19.6% |
| Other | 8.7% |
| Financials | 7.5% |
| 12 smaller | 16.3% |
Government, Securitized and Cash are non-corporate buckets; International is foreign holdings we don’t sector-classify, and Other is the residual (held funds, unresolved names).

| +4.36% | +12.36% | +2.05% | 3.48% | -5.61% |
These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 4.55pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.91pp a year — not a difference in what they own.
May 2026 has been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so it is not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.
Debt profile
What this fund holds — value-weighted across its bond and securitized long positions · as of 2026-05-31
Share of the fund's debt by how its coupon behaves — the fact that decides whether a rate move reaches this portfolio at all.
| Fixed rate | 85.3% |
| Floating rate | 14.7% |
Share of the fund's debt value in each maturity band, shortest first.
| <1y | 1.2% |
| 1-3y | 10.7% |
| 3-5y | 17.6% |
| 5-10y | 19.7% |
| 10y+ | 50.7% |
Based on what filers reported; a filer that never reported a flag also reads as none.
Risk profile
Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2
Most of this fund’s sensitivity is to interest rates, with credit spreads carrying about half as much.
Where the loss would come from. The two shocks are the same size, so this is the balance of the fund's two sensitivities rather than a bet on one moving more.
| Interest rates | 69% |
| Credit spreads | 31% |
Filers report the impact of a 0.01% move only, so the total is our own scaling of that one number and overstates the loss on most bonds — read it as approximate, never as precise. The two sensitivities overlap rather than add up: they measure the same positions against different shocks, which is why the durations above are shown side by side and never summed.
Share of the fund's spread duration carried by each credit tier.
| Investment grade | +2.48 yr |
| High yield | +0.15 yr |
Share of duration at each point, shortest first. A positive figure loses value when spreads widen; a negative one offsets — a credit hedge.
| 3 mo | 0.03 yr | 1% |
| 1 yr | 0.66 yr | 11% |
| 5 yr | 1.69 yr | 29% |
| 10 yr | 2.15 yr | 37% |
| 30 yr | 1.24 yr | 22% |
| 3 mo | 0.02 yr | 1% |
| 1 yr | 0.38 yr | 15% |
| 5 yr | 1.08 yr | 41% |
| 10 yr | 0.93 yr | 35% |
| 30 yr | 0.21 yr | 8% |
The two bands measure the same positions against different shocks and do not add — a Treasury carries rate duration and no spread duration, a floating-rate credit the reverse. Rate tenors are also summed across every currency the fund discloses.
