Fund Description

The Fund is designed to maximize total return by investing in a portfolio of investment grade debt securities. The Fund is offered as a component of the JPMorgan Core Bond SMA Managed Account Strategy (“SMA Strategy”) to participants in separately managed account (SMA) programs. The SMA Strategy consists of a separately managed account that holds both the Fund and other securities and investments directly for the SMA clients. As a result, the Fund will not hold all of the core bond investments of the SMA Strategy but rather will invest in certain securities and investments that can be traded more efficiently if held by an investment company rather than directly. Since the Fund will be used as part of a SMA Strategy, it is not intended to be a stand-alone core bond investment strategy.As part of its main investment strategy, the Fund principally invests in corporate bonds, U.S. government and agency securities, and asset-backed, mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities. Mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities may be structured as collateralized mortgage obligations (agency and non-agency), stripped mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, mortgage pass-through securities and cash and cash equivalents. These securities may be structured such that payments consist of interest-only (IO), principal-only (PO) or principal and interest.While the Fund’s investments may be of any maturity, the Fund’s average weighted maturity will ordinarily range between two and 12 years. The Fund may have a longer or shorter average weighted maturity under certain market conditions and the Fund may shorten or lengthen its average weighted maturity if deemed appropriate for temporary defensive purposes. Because of the Fund’s holdings in asset-backed, mortgage-related, mortgage-backed and other structured securities, the Fund’s average weighted maturity is equivalent to the average weighted maturity of the cash flows in the securities held by the Fund given certain prepayment assumptions (also known as weighted average life).Securities will be rated investment grade (or unrated but deemed by the adviser to be of comparable quality to investment grade securities) at the time of purchase. In addition, all securities will be U.S. dollar-denominated although they may be issued by a foreign issuer or a U.S. affiliate of a foreign issuer. The adviser may invest a significant portion or all of its assets in mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities in the adviser’s discretion. The Fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in “sub-prime” mortgage-related securities determined at the time of purchase.The adviser manages the Fund as two separate sleeves with one sleeve consisting of credit securities such as corporate bonds and debt securities (credit sleeve) and the other sleeve consisting of structured instruments such as asset-backed securities, mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities (structured sleeve). The adviser allocates the Fund’s assets between the sleeves based on its view of the relative value of investments and the investments held directly in the separately managed accounts. The adviser buys and sells securities and investments for each sleeve based on its view of individual securities and market sectors. Taking a long-term approach, the adviser looks for individual fixed income investments that it believes will perform well over market cycles. The adviser is value oriented and makes decisions to purchase and sell individual securities and instruments after performing a risk/reward analysis that includes an evaluation of interest rate risk, credit risk, duration, liquidity, legal provisions and the structure of the transaction. As part of its security selection process, the adviser seeks to assess the impact of environmental, social and governance factorson certain issuers in the universe in which the Fund may invest. The adviser’s assessment is based on an analysis of key opportunities and risks across industries to identify financially material issues on the Fund’s investments in issuers and ascertain key issues that merit engagement with issuers. These assessments may not be conclusive and securities of issuers that may be negatively impacted by such factors may be purchased and retained by the Fund while the Fund may divest or not invest in securities of issuers that may be positively impacted by such factors.
