Fund Description

The fund was incepted in May 1994 and is managed by Federated Investment Management Company. The fund's investment objective is to seek a high level of current income. The fund allocates the portfolio primarily among three categories of fixed income securities, domestic investment grade (including U.S. government, mortgage backed and corporate), domestic non-investment grade corporate and foreign. Based upon historical returns, the fund expects the three categories of investments to have different returns and risks under similar market conditions. The fund relies on the differences in the expected performance of each category to manage risks by allocating the fund's portfolio among the three categories. The fund seeks to enhance the performance by allocating more of its portfolio to the category that the fund expects to offer the best balance between risk and return. While the fund's portfolio usually includes securities from all three categories, the fund limits the amount it may invest in a single category to 50% of its assets. The fund offers dividends monthly and capital gains annually.
