AST Goldman Sachs Multi-Asset Portfolio describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Advanced Series Trust.

Investment objective

The investment objective of the Portfolio is to seek to obtain a high level of total return consistent with its level of risk tolerance.

Principal investment strategy

The Portfolio is a global asset allocation fund that pursues domestic and foreign equity and fixed income strategies emphasizing growth and emerging markets. Under normal circumstances, approximately 50% of the Portfolios total assets are invested to provide exposure to equity securities and approximately 50% of its total assets are invested to provide exposure to fixed income securities. Such exposures may be obtained through (i) the purchase of physical securities (such as common stocks and bonds), (ii) the use of derivatives (such as futures contracts, currency forwards, and equity index options), and (iii) investments in affiliated or unaffiliated investment companies, including exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Derivative instruments of the Portfolio, underlying funds and ETFs may include futures, foreign currency contracts, options, and swaps, such as total return swaps, credit default swaps and interest rate swaps.

The specific allocation of assets among equity and fixed income asset classes will vary from time to time, as determined by Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (the Subadviser), based on a variety of factors such as the relative attractiveness of various securities based on market valuations, growth and inflation prospects. The Subadviser utilizes a variety of different investment strategies in allocating the Portfolios assets across equity and fixed income investments. The Subadviser may change the strategies it uses for gaining exposure to these asset classes and may reallocate the Portfolios assets among them from time to time in its sole discretion.
