Our High Yield funds seek above average total returns utilizing an investment approach that employs a targeted universe; in-depth company research; active, but constrained industry weightings; and optimal security structures all supported by rigorous and time-tested sell disciplines.

Our Investment Grade Funds are managed based on the "bottom-up" principle of security selection along with "top-down" strategies for sector allocation and yield curve structure using rigorous fundamental research.

Our Short Duration Funds seek to produce superior absolute and relative investment performance over time by employing a multi-disciplined approach that consists of duration management, yield curve analysis, sector analysis and security selection.

For each fund with at least a 3-year history, Morningstar calculates a Morningstar Rating based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a fund’s monthly performance (including the effects of sales charges, loads, and redemption fees), placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The top 10% of funds in each category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. (Each share class is counted as a fraction of one fund within this scale and is rated separately, which may cause slight variations in the distribution percentages.) The Overall Morningstar Rating for a fund is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its 3-, 5- and 10-year (if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. Morningstar Rating is for the Institutional share class only; other classes may have different performance characteristics.
