Description
Fund Objective
The fund has two primary investment objectives. It seeks (1) to provide a level of current income that exceeds the average yield on U.S. stocks generally and (2) to provide a growing stream of income over the years. The fund's secondary objective is to provide growth of capital.
Distinguishing Characteristics
This globally diversified fund aims to prudently generate a growing stream of income and current income that exceeds the average yield paid by U.S. companies in general. This flexible equity-income fund uses a mix of stocks and bonds in pursuit of its income objectives, which may have the potential to lead to equity-like returns with relatively less volatility than global markets.

Holdings Outside the U.S.
May invest up to 50% of assets outside the U.S.
Portfolio Restrictions
Normally, at least 90% of the fund's portfolio will be invested in income-producing securities.
