C000158033 Investment Objective and Strategy
AST Goldman Sachs Global Income 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 high total return, emphasizing current income and, to a lesser extent, providing opportunities for capital appreciation.
Principal investment strategy
In pursuing its investment objective, the Portfolio normally invests at least 80% of its assets (net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in a portfolio of fixed income instruments of US and foreign issuers (measured at the time of purchase). The Portfolio also enters into transactions in currencies (including foreign currencies), typically through the use of forward contracts and swap contracts to seek to enhance returns and to seek to hedge its portfolio against currency exchange rate fluctuations. The Portfolio also may invest in other derivatives for both investment and hedging purposes. Derivatives are instruments that have a value based on another instrument, exchange rate, interest rate or index. The Portfolios investments in derivatives may include futures, swaps (including credit default, index, basis, total return, volatility, interest rate and currency swaps), to-be-announced contracts (TBAs), forward rate agreements (FRAs), repurchase agreements and options and currency forwards.
The Portfolio may use derivatives instead of buying and selling bonds to manage duration, to gain exposure or to short individual securities or to gain exposure to a credit or asset backed index. The Portfolio may also employ money market instruments and affiliated mutual funds for cash management and asset allocations to specific sectors of the bond market. Under normal market conditions, the Portfolio invests at least 40% of its net assets plus any borrowings for investment purposes (measured at the time of purchase) in foreign securities. Foreign securities include securities of issuers located outside of the securities quoted or denominated in a currency other than the US dollar. The Portfolio is classified as non-diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which means that it may invest a larger percentage of its assets in fewer issuers than a diversified mutual fund.
