The fund managed by PineBridge Investments LLC, as the sub-adviser, focuses on meeting its investment objective through a strategic allocation of assets primarily in inflation-indexed fixed-income securities. These securities are sourced from both domestic and international markets, including government entities, agencies, instrumentalities, and corporate issuers. The emphasis on inflation-indexed fixed-income securities is part of a broader strategy to offer investors a hedge against inflation, thereby preserving the purchasing power of their investments over time. PineBridge Investments LLC leverages its expertise and market insights to select securities that not only offer protection against inflation but also align with the fund’s risk-return profile.
At the core of its investment offerings, the fund invests in inflation-indexed fixed-income securities. These are bonds designed to protect investors against inflation. The principal value of these bonds is adjusted according to inflation rates, which means that if inflation rises, the bond’s principal value increases accordingly. This adjustment mechanism helps ensure that investors’ capital grows in real terms, safeguarding their purchasing power. The fund targets securities issued by a diverse range of entities, including domestic and foreign governments, their agencies or instrumentalities, and corporations. This diversification aims to mitigate risk while capitalizing on opportunities across different markets and issuers.
