C000059805 Investment Objective and Strategy
NVIT Core Plus Bond Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by Nationwide Variable Insurance Trust.
Investment objective
The NVIT Core Plus Bond Fund seeks long-term total return, consistent with reasonable risk.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund is designed to provide a diversified portfolio of different types of investment grade fixed-income securities. However, in contrast to a typical core bond strategy, the Fund also invests a portion of its assets in fixed-income securities that carry higher risks, but which potentially offer higher investment rewards. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in investment grade fixed-income securities, including U.S. and foreign corporate bonds, U.S. government securities, bonds issued by foreign governments and mortgage-backed securities. The Fund may also invest in high-yield bonds (commonly known as junk bonds) and asset-backed securities. Certain foreign securities may include those from emerging market countries, which generally are developing and low- or middle-income countries found in regions such as Asia, Latin America, Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa.
Certain securities in which the Fund invests may be purchased with delayed delivery. The Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in securities offering the highest level of total return while simultaneously managing investment risk. The Funds subadviser may sell a security in order to manage investment risk, to achieve an attractive total return, or to take advantage of more favorable opportunities. The Fund may engage in active and frequent trading of portfolio securities.
