The fund invests in residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities, or issued by non-government entities, such as commercial banks or other private lenders, with an emphasis on investment-grade securities.

Under normal circumstances, the fund will invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) in investment grade tranches of RMBS, and in other instruments that have economic characteristics similar to such investments.

The fund will invest exclusively in debt tranches of RMBS. There is no limitation on the maturity of the fund’s debt investments. The RMBS in which the fund invests are generally purchased pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 and are therefore subject to certain resale restrictions.

For purposes of its investment objective, the fund defines a ‘relatively high level of income’ for this purpose as a level of income comparable to the yield to maturity of the agency component of the Bloomberg US Mortgage Backed Securities (MBS) Index. As of June 30, 2025, the yield to maturity of the agency component of the Bloomberg US Mortgage Backed Securities Index was 4.93%.
