Fund Description

Under normal circumstances, we invest:  
up to 70% of the Fund’s total assets in debt securities;
up to 70% of the Fund’s total assets in equity securities; and
up to 25% of the Fund’s net assets in commodities.
The Fund is a feeder fund that invests substantially all of its assets in the Real Return Portfolio, a master portfolio with a substantially identical investment objective and substantially similar investment strategies. We may invest in additional master portfolios, in other Allspring Funds, or directly in a portfolio of securities.
We utilize an active allocation strategy to diversify the portfolio across various investments, assets and sectors, in an attempt to generate a real return (a return in excess of the rate of inflation) over an economic cycle, consistent with an appropriate level of risk. We dynamically allocate investments to various broad asset classes across debt, equity and commodities based on our assessment of changing economic, global market, industry, and issuer conditions.
We may invest up to 70% of the Fund’s total assets in debt securities including but not limited to, inflation-indexed debt securities, corporate-issued debt, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, bank loans and government obligations. These securities may have fixed, floating or variable rates. We may invest up to 10% of the Fund’s total assets in below investment-grade debt securities, often called “high yield securities” or “junk bonds”. We do not manage the portfolio to a specific maturity or duration. We may use futures contracts to manage or adjust duration and yield curve exposure, as well as to manage risk or to enhance return.
We may invest up to 70% of the Fund’s total assets in equity securities, including but not limited to, common stock, preferred stock and real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), of domestic and foreign issuers of any market capitalization. We may invest in derivatives, such as futures and swaps, that have similar economic or financial characteristics of any security described above.
We may invest up to 25% of the Fund’s net assets in the common or preferred stock of a subsidiary of the Fund that typically invests directly or indirectly in commodity-linked derivatives such as commodity forwards, commodity futures, commodity swaps, swaps on commodity futures and other commodity-linked derivative securities; it may also invest in all other securities allowed in the Fund. These holdings may contribute more than 25% of the Fund’s risk allocation.
The Fund will incorporate a derivatives overlay strategy that contains three specific risk management components: 1.) Tactical Asset Allocation (TAA) Overlay, 2.) Tail Risk Management (TRM) and 3.) Real Return Overlay (RRO). Together these strategies will allow the Fund to attempt to manage short-term volatility, mitigate risk and/or improve returns under certain market conditions. To execute this overlay strategy, the Fund (either directly or through its subsidiary in the case of commodity exposure) invests in long and/or short positions in exchange-traded futures and/or currency forward contracts across a variety of asset classes, which include, but are not limited to, stocks, bonds, commodities, and currencies.
