Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2026 Q2

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to track the investment results, before fees and expenses, of the Bloomberg Global Aggregate ex-USD (Hedged) Index.

Strategy · summarised

The fund tracks the Bloomberg Global Aggregate ex-USD (Hedged) Index, a market-capitalization-weighted index of investment-grade sovereign, government-related, corporate, and securitized bonds issued in non-U.S. currencies, using representative sampling to match the index's risk and return characteristics. Currency exposure is hedged monthly to keep the fund's exposure effectively in U.S. dollars. The fund is non-diversified and has no discretion over index selection or methodology, which is managed by the index provider. Because the fund samples rather than holds all index constituents, its returns may diverge from the index.

May 2026 and Jun 2026 have been filed since the trailing figures were struck, so they are not in the table above or the curve — every figure here shares one cut-off, which is what makes them comparable with other funds.

Risk profile

Interest-rate and credit-spread sensitivity, both in years · as of 2026Q2

More of this fund’s sensitivity sits in credit spreads than in interest rates — a rate rally that comes with a credit selloff works against it.

Interest-rate duration
5.70 yr
approx. move per 100bp
Credit-spread duration
6.36 yr
approx. move per 100bp
If rates and spreads both rise 100bp

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.

≈ -12.0%
of value
Credit spreads53%
Interest rates47%

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.

Where the risk sits on the curve

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 is NEGATIVE (-0.08 yr) — a deliberate hedge at that point on the curve, so it is not part of the band above.

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.

Rate exposure by currency

Duration contribution in years, summing to the fund's 5.70 yr.

JPY+1.11 yr
GBP+0.57 yr
CAD+0.41 yr
AUD+0.23 yr
CHF+0.16 yr

This is where the fund's rate exposure sits, not its currency risk — most international bond funds hedge the currency back to dollars, and the size of those hedges is not in the filing. Tenors are also summed across curves, so a 5-year JPY point and a 5-year USD point are added together.
