FUND SUMMARY 
The fund seeks to earn a positive total return that exceeds the rate of inflation by 300 basis points (or 3.00%) over a reasonable period of time regardless of market conditions. This fund is designed to pursue consistent absolute returns with relatively low volatility and limited market risk through a broadly diversified portfolio reflecting uncorrelated fixed-income strategies designed to exploit market inefficiencies across global markets and fixed-income sectors, including Obligations of governments in developed and emerging markets, Credit product, and securities.
