factors

for

all

classes,

we

use

company

or

disclosures,

public

data

sources,

and

independent

third-party

data

(where

available)

as

inputs

into

our

analytical

processes.

With

respect

to

certain

holdings,

such

as

of

data

on

material

ESG

considerations

may

be

limited.

Because

fixed

income

investments

generally

represent

a

promise

to

pay

principal

and

interest

by

an

issuer,

and

not

an

ownership

interest,

and

may

involve

complex

structures,

ESG-related

investment

considerations

may

have

a

more

limited

impact

on

risk

and

return

(or

may

have

an

impact

over

a

different

investment

time

horizon)

relative

to

other

asset

classes,

and

this

may

be

particularly

true

for

shorter-term

investments.

The

consideration

of

ESG

factors

as

part

of

the

fund’s

investment

process

does

not

mean

that

the

fund

pursues

a

specific

“ESG”

or

“sustainable”

investment

strategy,

and

we

may

make

investment

decisions

for

the

fund

other

than

on

the

basis

of

relevant

ESG

considerations.
