Important Information: Capital at Risk. The value of investments and the income from them can fall as well as rise and are not guaranteed. Investors may not get back the amount originally invested.

Important Information: The value of your investment and the income from it will vary and your initial investment amount cannot be guaranteed. The Share class invests in fixed interest securities such as bonds which pay a fixed or variable rate of interest. Therefore the value of these securities is sensitive to movements in interest rates; typically when interest rates rise there is a corresponding decline in the market value of bonds. The Share class invests in fixed interest securities issued by US government sponsored enterprises such as Ginnie Mae, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. There is a risk of default where the issuing company may not pay income or repay capital to the Share class when due. Mortgage backed securities may be subject to liquidity risk (where there are insufficient buyers or sellers to allow the Share class to sell or buy investments readily), have high levels of borrowing and may not fully reflect the value of underlying assets.
