A Word About Risk
Market Risk: The market values of the Portfolio’s holdings rise and fall from day to day, so investments may lose value. Interest-Rate Risk: Fixed-income securities may lose value if interest rates rise or fall—long-term securities tend to rise and fall more than short-term securities. The values of mortgage-related and asset-backed securities are particularly sensitive to changes in interest rates due to prepayment risk. Credit Risk: A bond’s credit rating reflects the issuer’s ability to make timely payments of interest or principal—the lower the rating, the higher the risk of default. If the issuer’s financial strength deteriorates, the issuer’s rating may be lowered, and the bond’s value may decline.

Investment and Insurance Products: Not FDIC insured | Not a bank deposit | Not insured by any federal government agency | No bank guarantee | May lose value
