Fund profile

As filed in the prospectus · 2025 Q4

The fund seeks to provide a total return that matches or incrementally exceeds the performance of the U.S. investment-grade bond market.

Strategy · summarised

The fund tracks the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index by holding a representative sample of investment-grade U.S. bonds across government, agency, mortgage-backed, asset-backed, and corporate segments, rather than replicating the full index. The adviser uses quantitative models to adjust sector and duration positioning relative to the index in pursuit of modest outperformance, which may result in the fund's risk profile diverging from the index. The fund employs interest rate futures, Treasury-backed securities on forward commitment, and credit default swap indexes to manage duration and credit exposure.

Return profile

Chart:

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

Share class1-year3-year5-yearVolWorst fall

+3.99%+11.01%+0.63%3.47%-6.18%

These classes hold the same portfolio, so the 1.19pp spread over 5 years is the cost difference between them — roughly 0.24pp a year — not a difference in what they own.

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 about half as much.

Interest-rate duration
5.87 yr
approx. move per 100bp
Credit-spread duration
3.38 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.

of value
Interest rates63%
Credit spreads37%

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 duration at each point, shortest first. A positive figure loses value when spreads widen; a negative one offsets — a credit hedge.

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.
