Important information on risk
Past performance is no guarantee of future results. All investments carry a certain degree of risk, including the possible loss of principal, and there is no assurance that an investment will provide positive performance over any period of time. Certain products and services may not be available to all entities or persons. There is no guarantee that investment objectives will be achieved. Dividends are not guaranteed.
An investment in the fund is subject to many risks, such as market risk or the risk that stocks in the portfolio will decline in the response to such factors as adverse company news or industry developments or a general economic decline. Stocks of small- and mid--cap companies often experience sharper fluctuation than stocks of large--cap companies. Non-U.S. investments as well as securities investments in certain markets involve additional risks such as currency fluctuation, political and economic instability, lack of liquidity and differing legal and accounting standards. These risks are magnified in emerging markets. Investments in debt securities issued or guaranteed by governments or governmental entities are subject to the risk that an entity may delay or refuse to pay interest or principal on its sovereign debt because of cash flow problems, insufficient foreign reserves, or political or other considerations. In this event, there may be no legal process for collecting sovereign debts that a governmental entity has not repaid.
Non-diversified funds and funds concentrated in specific sectors invest in a limited number of issuers and are therefore more vulnerable to changes in the market value of a single issuer or group of issuers than diversified funds and may involve greater risk and volatility than more diversified investments including greater exposure to adverse economic regulatory, political, legal and other changes affecting such securities.
Credit risk arises from an issuer's ability to make interest and principal payments when due, as well as the prices of bonds declining when an issuer's credit quality is expected to deteriorate. Interest rate risk occurs when interest rates rise causing bond prices to fall. The Fund's income could decline during periods of falling interest rates. Investments in below investment grade or high yield securities are subject to liquidity risk and heightened credit risk. The potential use of derivatives involves a high degree of financial risk, including the risk that the loss of a derivate may be greater than the principal amount invested.
