as

a

result,

the

#### Rate
When

interest

rates

rise,

debt

security

prices

generally

fall.

The

opposite

is

also

generally

true:

debt

security

prices

rise

when

interest

rates

fall.

Interest

influenced

by

a

of

factors,

including

government

policy,

monetary

policy,

inflation

expectations,

perceptions

of

risk,

and

supply

of

and

demand

for

bonds.

In

general,

securities

with

longer

maturities

or

durations

are

more

sensitive

to

interest

rate

changes.

#### Market
The

market

values

of

securities

or

other

investments

owned

by

the

The

value

of

a

security

or

other

investment

may

be

reduced

by

market

activity

or

other

results
