C000106861 Investment Objective and Strategy

JNL/Franklin Templeton Global Multisector Bond 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 to seek total investment return consisting of a combination of interest income, capital appreciation, and currency gains.

Principal investment strategy

Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets (net assets plus amount of any borrowings made for investment purposes) in fixed and floating rate debt securities and debt obligations (including convertible bonds) of governments, government agencies and government-related or corporate issuers located anywhere in the world, including developing markets (collectively, bonds). Bonds include debt securities of any maturity, such as bonds, notes, bills and debentures, and may be denominated and issued in the local currency or in another currency. The Fund may also invest in inflation-indexed securities and securities or structured products that are linked to or derive their value from another security, asset or currency of any nation. In addition, the Funds assets will be invested in issuers located in at least three countries (including the U.S.); the Funds investments will generally be invested predominately outside the United States.

Under normal market conditions, the Fund expects to invest at least 40% of its net assets in foreign securities. The Fund may buy bonds rated in any category, including securities in default. The Fund may invest in debt securities of any maturity or duration, and the average maturity of debt securities in the Funds portfolio will fluctuate depending on the Sub-Advisers outlook on changing market, economic, and political conditions. The Fund may invest in fixed-income securities of any credit quality, including below investment grade or high-yield securities (sometimes referred to as junk bonds), and may buy bonds that are in default. For purposes of satisfying the 80% requirement, the Fund may also invest in derivative instruments that have economic characteristics similar to the fixed-income instruments mentioned above.

Fixed-income Instruments include bonds, debt securities and other similar instruments issued by various U.S. and non-U.S. public- or private-sector entities. For purposes of pursuing its investment goals, the Fund regularly enters into various currency related transactions involving derivative instruments, principally currency and cross currency forwards but may also use currency and currency index futures contracts. The Fund maintains significant positions in currency related derivative instruments as a hedging technique or to implement a currency investment strategy, which could expose a large amount of the Funds assets to obligations under these instruments. The result of such transactions may represent, from time to time, a large component of the Funds investment returns. The use of derivative transactions may allow the fund to obtain net long or net negative (short) exposure to selected currencies.

The Fund may also enter into various other transactions involving derivatives, including interest/bond futures and interest rate swap agreements (which may include interest rate and credit default swaps). These derivative instruments may be used for hedging purposes, to enhance returns, or to obtain net long or net negative (short) exposure to selected currencies, interest rates, countries, durations, or credit risks. Franklin Advisers, Inc. (Sub-Adviser) allocates the Funds assets based upon its assessment of changing market, political and economic conditions. It will consider various factors, including evaluation of interest and currency exchange rate changes and credit risks. The Sub-Adviser may consider selling a security when it believes the security has become fully valued due to either its price appreciation or changes in the issuers fundamentals, or when the Sub-Adviser believes another security is a more attractive investment opportunity.

The Fund is a non-diversified fund, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), and may invest more of its assets in fewer issuers than diversified mutual funds.
