Fund Description
The Fund invests in a mix of equity and debt securities. It normally invests 40% of its assets in equity securities of US companies, 20% in foreign equity securities, and 40% in investment-grade fixed-income securities (those rated BBB or higher, including government and convertible bonds) including money market instruments and cash. When selecting equities, the Fund follows a value investing approach and principally invests in income-producing securities of companies in mature markets with market capitalizations greater than $5 billion. When selecting fixed-income securities, the Fund may utilize a blend of US government securities, US-dollar issues of foreign governments, and investment-grade corporate debt securities, as well as money market instruments. The Fund seeks to maintain a dollar weighted average effective maturity for its fixed-income portfolio of 5-10 years, with the aim of managing portfolio volatility and liquidity.
