Fund Description

ª
The Fund invests in a wide variety of debt instruments and income-producing securities. These include (1) debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government and foreign governments and their agencies and instrumentalities, political subdivisions of foreign governments (such as provinces and municipalities), and supranational organizations (such as the World Bank); (2) debt securities, loans and commercial paper issued by U.S. and foreign companies; (3) U.S. and foreign mortgage-related securities, including collateralized mortgage-backed obligations, credit risk transfer securities and commercial mortgage-backed obligations, and U.S. and foreign asset-backed debt securities, including collateralized debt obligations and collateralized loan obligations; (4) municipal securities, which are debt obligations issued by state and local governments, territories and possessions of the United States, regional governmental authorities, and their agencies and instrumentalities, the interest on which may, or may not, be exempt from Federal income tax; and (5) convertible bonds and preferred stock.
ª
The Fund invests at least 65% of its total assets in investment grade debt securities. However, the Fund may invest up to 35% of its total assets in debt securities rated below investment grade. The overall average credit quality of the Fund will remain investment grade. Investment grade debt securities are rated within the four highest grades by at least one Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization, or are securities that the Fund’s adviser, Payden & Rygel (“Payden”), determines to be of comparable quality.
ª
Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 65% of its total assets in debt securities of issuers organized or headquartered in at least three countries, one of which may be the United States. The Fund may invest in debt securities of issuers organized or headquartered in emerging market countries.
ª
The Fund invests in debt securities payable in U.S. dollars and in foreign currencies, and the Fund generally hedges most of its foreign currency exposure to the U.S. dollar.
ª
The Fund invests in debt securities of any maturity. Maturity is the date when each bond or other debt security pays back its principal. Under normal market conditions, the Fund’s maximum average portfolio maturity (on a dollar-weighted basis) is four years. In calculating the Fund’s average portfolio maturity, the Fund uses a security’s stated maturity, or if applicable, an earlier date based on the Adviser’s belief that the security may be subject, for example, to a call, a put, a refunding, a prepayment, a redemption provision, an adjustable coupon rate, or the like, that will cause the security to be repaid earlier.
ª
The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in equity securities of U.S. or foreign issuers.
ª
The Fund may invest in many different types of derivatives, such as futures, forwards, swaps and options. These positions may be used for the purposes of either hedging currency exposure in the portfolio or to obtain exposure to various market sectors. Currency positions may be employed for the purposes of hedging non-dollar denominated bonds or to take an active position in a currency, both long or short.
ª
To gain exposure to various markets consistent with the investment strategies of the Fund, the Fund may invest in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) and other investment companies, including for example, other open-end or closed-end investment companies, and including investment companies for which the Adviser provides investment management services (affiliated funds).
