C000011211 Investment Objective and Strategy
Pioneer Solutions Balanced Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Pioneer Asset Allocation Trust.
Investment objective
Long-term capital growth and current income.
Principal investment strategy
"The fund is a ""fund of funds."" The fund seeks to achieve its investment objectives by primarily investing in other funds (""underlying funds""). The fund invests primarily in underlying funds managed by Amundi Pioneer or one of its affiliates. The fund may also invest in securities of unaffiliated mutual funds or exchange-traded funds (ETFs) when the desired economic exposure to a particular asset category or investment strategy is not available through a Pioneer fund. The fund allocates its assets among underlying funds with exposure to the broad asset classes of equity, fixed income and short-term (money market) investments. The fund also may invest in underlying funds with exposure to non-traditional - so-called ""alternative"" - asset classes such as real estate investment trusts (REITs) or commodities, or that use alternative strategies, such as market neutral strategies (strategies that seek to achieve positive returns while attempting to limit general market exposure) or relative value strategies (strategies that seek to identify securities that are undervalued relative to each other or historical norms).
The fund may invest in underlying funds with exposure to debt and equity securities of issuers located throughout the world, including both developed and emerging markets. The fund does not have target ranges for the allocation of assets among asset classes or individual underlying funds. The fund invests a minimum of 25% of its assets in each of fixed income and equity securities. The fund's exposure to different asset classes and allocations among underlying funds will change from time to time in response to broad economic and market factors, as well as strategic and tactical considerations. The equity securities to which the fund may have exposure may be of any market capitalization. The fixed income securities to which the fund may have exposure may be of any maturity and of any credit quality, including high yield or ""junk"" bonds.
The investment adviser allocates the fund's investments in the underlying funds based on an evaluation of three components: strategic asset allocation (generally, the weighting of allocations among broad asset classes to capture market returns), tactical asset allocation (generally, the weighting of allocations to various sub-categories within broad asset classes to add value relative to the general strategic allocations) and fund selection. The adviser's analysis in selecting underlying funds includes an assessment of a fund's historical relative and absolute performance, volatility and other risk characteristics, and correlation with other funds and benchmarks. The adviser also analyzes the fund's investment strategies, investment process and portfolio management team. As part of its asset allocation strategy, the fund may invest in Pioneer Multi-Asset Income Fund, among other funds.
Pioneer Multi-Asset Income Fund has the flexibility to invest in a broad range of income-producing investments, including both debt securities and equity securities. As of July 31, 2018 approximately 25% of the fund was allocated to Pioneer Multi-Asset Income Fund. The fund's allocation among underlying funds, including Multi-Asset Income Fund, will change from time to time. The fund may also invest directly in securities. In addition, the fund may, but is not required to, use derivatives, including futures, options, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swaps, for a variety of purposes, including: in an attempt to hedge against adverse changes in the market price of securities, interest rate or currency exchange rates; as a substitute for purchasing and selling securities; to attempt to increase the fund's return, as a non-hedging strategy that may be considered speculative; to manage portfolio characteristics; and as a cash flow management technique.
In addition, certain underlying funds may use derivatives. Investments typically are sold when the adviser's overall assessment of market and economic conditions changes or the assessments of the attributes of specific investments change."
