C000107912 Investment Objective and Strategy
Multi-Asset Absolute Return Fund describes its objective and strategy as follows, from its latest prospectus filed with the SEC by John Hancock Funds II.
Investment objective
To seek long term total return.
Principal investment strategy
The fund may use an extensive range of investment strategies and invest in a wide spectrum of equity and fixed-income securities, as well as derivative instruments, in pursuing its investment objective. The fund may invest in equity and fixed-income securities of companies and government and supranational entities around the world, including in emerging markets. The fund is not subject to any maturity, market capitalization, or credit quality restrictions and may invest in high-yield below-investment-grade bonds (junk bonds) without limitation. The fund may invest significantly in particular economic sectors. Under normal market conditions, at least 40% of the value of the fund's net assets will be invested in or exposed to obligations of issuers or obligors located outside of the United States.
The fund also invests extensively in derivative instruments, which may relate to equity securities, fixed-income securities, interest rates, total return rates, currencies or currency exchange rates, or indexes. Derivatives, including futures, options, swaps (including credit default and variance swaps), and foreign currency forward contracts, may be used for both investment and hedging purposes. The manager seeks to maximize risk-adjusted absolute return by using multiple strategies across listed equity, equity-related, and debt securities, derivatives, or other instruments as part of a diversified global portfolio. These strategies include exploiting market cyclicality and a diverse array of inefficiencies across and within global markets. The manager manages the fund's investment strategies dynamically over time and will actively modify investment strategies and develop new strategies in response to additional research, changing market conditions, or other factors.
The fund also may hold cash or invest its cash balances in cash equivalents and short-term investments, including money market funds.
