| Standard & Poor's Fund Ratings represent an opinion only, not a recommendation to buy or sell. The 'AAAf' credit quality rating reflects extremely strong protection against losses from credit defaults. The 'S1' volatility rating signifies that a fund provides low sensitivity to changing market conditions. Aggregate risk is less than or equal to a portfolio of government securities maturing in one to three years with no currency risk. Volatility ratings evaluate the fund's sensitivity to interest rate movements, credit risk, investment diversification or concentration, liquidity, leverage, and other factors. As part of our volatility analysis, S&P assessed the management, portfolio-level risk, target durations, and comparable return strategies of the Portfolio. Not all bond funds have volatility ratings, there is no standardized method for assigning ratings and there is no guarantee the Fund will have the same rating or perform in the future as rated. Consideration was paid to S&P by the Fund's advisor to perform the ratings analysis and assign the ratings. The portfolio composition may have changed since the date of the last rating |
