C000090917 Investment Objective and Strategy
JNL/BlackRock Global Allocation Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by JNL Series Trust.
Investment objective
The investment objective of the Fund is high total investment return.
Principal investment strategy
The Fund invests in a portfolio of equity, debt and money market securities. Generally, the Fund will invest in both equity and debt securities. For purposes of this Fund, equity securities include common stock, rights and warrants, preferred stock, securities convertible into common stock, or securities or other instruments whose price is linked to the value of common stock. For purposes of this Fund, debt securities include, but are not limited to, U.S. and foreign government bonds, corporate bonds, convertible bonds, structured notes, credit-linked notes, mortgage- and asset-backed securities, loan assignments and loan participations, and securities issued by certain international organizations such as the World Bank. The Fund uses derivatives as a means of managing exposure to foreign currencies and other adverse market movements, as well as to increase returns.
At any given time, the Fund may emphasize either debt securities or equity securities; however, over time the Funds portfolio of assets will tend to be relatively balanced between equity and debt securities and widely diversified among many individual investments. In selecting equity investments, the Fund mainly seeks securities that BlackRock Investment Management, LLC (Sub-Adviser) believes are undervalued. The Fund may buy debt securities with varying maturities. The Fund may invest up to 35% of its total assets in high yield or junk bonds, corporate loans and distressed securities. Junk bonds are fixed-income securities rated below investment-grade by independent rating agencies or are bonds that are unrated but that the Sub-Adviser believes are of comparable quality. The Fund may invest in corporate loans.
When choosing investments, the Sub-Adviser considers various factors, including opportunities for equity or debt investments to increase in value, expected dividends and interest rates. The Fund generally seeks diversification across markets, industries and issuers as one of its strategies to reduce volatility. The Fund may invest in the securities of companies of any market capitalization. Market capitalization is the number of shares of a companys stock, multiplied by the price per share of that stock. Market capitalization is a measure of a companys size. Generally, the Fund may invest in the securities of corporate and governmental issuers located anywhere in the world in both developed and emerging markets. The Fund may emphasize foreign securities when the Sub-Adviser expects these investments to outperform U.S.
securities. When choosing investment markets, the Sub-Adviser considers various factors, including economic and political conditions, potential for economic growth and possible changes in currency exchange rates. In addition to investing in foreign securities, the Fund actively manages its exposure to foreign currencies through the use of forward currency contracts and other currency derivatives. From time to time, the Fund may own foreign cash equivalents or foreign bank deposits as part of the Funds investment strategy. The Fund will also invest in non-U.S. currencies, however, the Fund may underweight or overweight a currency based on the Sub-Advisers outlook. The Funds composite Reference Benchmark has at all times since the Funds formation included a 40% weighting in non-U.S. securities.
The Reference Benchmark is an unmanaged weighted index comprised as follows: 36% of the Standard & Poors (S&P) 500 Index; 24% FTSE World (ex-U.S.) Index; 24% ICE BofA Current 5-Year US Treasury Index; and 16% FTSE Non-US Dollar World Government Bond Index. Throughout its history, the Fund has maintained a weighting in non-U.S. securities, often exceeding the 40% Reference Benchmark weighting and rarely falling below this allocation. Under normal circumstances, the Fund anticipates it will continue to allocate a substantial amount (approximately 40% or more unless market conditions are not deemed favorable by the Sub-Adviser, in which case the Fund would invest at least 30%) of its total assets in securities of (i) foreign government issuers; (ii) issuers organized or located outside the U.S.; (iii) issuers which primarily trade in a market located outside the U.S.; or (iv) issuers doing a substantial amount of business outside the U.S., which the Fund considers to be companies that derive at least 50% of their revenue or profits from business outside the U.S.
or have at least 50% of their sales or assets outside the U.S. The Fund will allocate its assets among various regions and countries, including the United States (but in no less than three different countries). For temporary defensive purposes, when purchases or redemptions require, or during transitions, the Fund may deviate very substantially from the allocation described above. The Fund may use derivatives, including options, futures, indexed securities, inverse securities, swaps and forward contracts both to seek to increase in the return of the Fund and to hedge (or protect) the value of its assets against adverse movements in currency exchange rates, interest rates and movements in the securities markets. The Fund may invest in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs). The Fund may also seek to provide exposure to the investment returns of real assets that trade in the commodity markets through investment in commodity-linked derivative instruments, such as structured notes, and other investment vehicles that exclusively invest in commodities, such as exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
The Fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in commodity-related instruments (which may include, among others, commodity options, futures, swaps on commodity futures, ETFs that invest in commodities, and commodity-linked structured notes) (collectively, Commodities). Total investment return is the combination of capital appreciation and investment income.
