Risk management is integrated into the process to provide every client with the best fit.
In our Core Bond Management styles, our goal is to maximize long-term total returns at risk levels that closely approximate that of the broad markets. We invest in a full range of fixed income sectors. This style is managed against Lehman Aggregate Index and invests only in investment-grade corporate bonds. This style is managed against Lehman Aggregate Index and opportunistically invests in below investment-grade securities, although the overall credit quality of these portfolios is only moderately lower than our other Core Bond styles. This style focuses on the 1-10 year portion of the bond market and has a lower level of volatility than our Core Bond styles.
