RISK CONSIDERATIONS  

Diversification does not protect you against a loss in a particular market; however it allows you to spread that risk across various asset classes.

There is no assurance that a mutual fund will achieve its investment objective. Funds are subject to market risk, which is the possibility that the market values ofsecurities owned by the fund will decline and that the value of fund shares may therefore be less than what you paid for them. Market values can change daily due toeconomic and other events (e.g. natural disasters, health crises, terrorism, conflicts and social unrest) that affect markets, countries, companies or governments. It isdifficult to predict the timing, duration, and potential adverse effects (e.g. portfolio liquidity) of events. Accordingly, you can lose money investing in this fund. Pleasebe aware that this fund may be subject to certain additional risks. Fixed-income securities are subject to the ability of an issuer to make timely principal and interestpayments (credit risk), changes in interest rates (interest-rate risk), the creditworthiness of the issuer and general market liquidity (market risk). In the current risinginterest-rate environment, bond prices may fall and may result in periods of volatility and increased portfolio redemptions. Longer-term securities may be moresensitive to interest rate changes. In a declining interest-rate environment, the portfolio may generate less income. Investments in foreign markets entail special riskssuch as currency, political, economic, and market risks. The risks of investing in emerging market countries are greater than the risks generally associated withinvestments in foreign developed countries. In addition to the risks associated with common stocks, investments in convertible securities are subject to the risks associated with fixed-income securities, namely credit, price and interest-rate risks. Currency fluctuations could erase investment gains or add to investment losses.When investing in value securities , the market may not have the same value assessment as the manager, and, therefore, the performance of the securities may decline.
