Fund Description

The fund aims to achieve its investment objective by maintaining a balanced portfolio of approximately 45% equity securities and 55% fixed income investments, with a permissible variance of +/-5%. Allocation decisions are made by the sub-adviser, Wellington Management Company LLP, based on assessments of the investment environment and asset category attractiveness. The equity portion primarily consists of common stocks with strong dividend histories, focusing on companies above $2 billion in market capitalization. For fixed income, the fund invests mainly in investment-grade corporate bonds, with allowances for non-investment grade debt, foreign issuers, and emerging market securities. Derivatives may be utilized for risk management and other investment purposes.
