Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2025 Q4

The investment objective of the Fund is to provide a high level of current income .

Strategy · summarised

The fund invests in a diversified portfolio of high yield fixed income instruments rated below investment grade, with day-to-day management delegated to a subadviser that combines top-down economic analysis and bottom-up fundamental research to select securities. The subadviser targets a weighted average portfolio duration of three years or less and maturity of five years or less, and may allocate up to 20% of assets to U.S. currency-denominated securities from foreign issuers and up to 10% to non-U.S. currency-denominated securities. Because the fund's returns depend on the subadviser's security selection and credit assessments, performance will diverge from any benchmark based on those choices.

Return profile

Chart:

Total return as filed — price change plus distributions reinvested · trailing figures to Apr 2026

Share class1-year3-year5-yearVolWorst fall
+6.90%+24.30%+24.35%2.34%-1.96%

+7.17%+25.27%+25.91%2.39%-1.91%
+7.20%+25.57%+26.23%2.31%-2.02%

These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 6.46pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 1.29pp a year — not a difference in what they own.

Cumulative return· Jun 2023 – Apr 2026

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.

These three overlap — one holding can be in arrears and paying in kind at once — so they are shown separately and never summed.

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 nearly as much.

Interest-rate duration

approx. move per 100bp
Credit-spread duration
1.88 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.

≈ -4.0%
of value
Interest rates54%
Credit spreads46%

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.

1 yr0.91 yr41%
5 yr1.24 yr56%
10 yr0.00 yr0%

30 yr is NEGATIVE (-0.00 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.
