This fund dedicates a minimum of 80% of its net assets, including any borrowed capital, to investments specifically designed to protect against inflation. These inflation-sensitive holdings primarily consist of two types: first, inflation-indexed debt securities with various maturities, issued by a broad range of entities such as the U.S. government, international governments, their agencies, corporations, and other organizations; and second, other fixed or floating-rate debt instruments (including junior and senior loans) for which the fund enters into agreements to swap conventional interest payments for ones tied to fluctuations in the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) or alternative inflation metrics.
