Derivatives may be utilized within the portfolio for the purpose of efficient portfolio management. This could include strategies aimed at hedging against risk or enhancing returns. The careful and strategic use of derivatives can contribute to the Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective while managing exposure to market fluctuations.
