It normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus any borrowings for investment purposes, in a broad range of U.S. dollar-denominated fixed income products. These include corporate bonds, notes and debentures, and effective March 31, 2018, closed-end funds that invest at least 80% of their assets in bonds, as well as U.S. government and agency securities. This strategy may not be changed unless Fund shareholders are given at least 60 days’ prior notice. The Fund generally invests in investment-grade securities, although the Fund may invest up to 35% of its assets in securities with a lower rating by both S&P and Moodys.
