Risk Considerations and Disclosures

Investments in fixed income securities carry risks common to debt instruments, including credit risk, liquidity risk, interest rate risk, and prepayment or extension risk. Bond prices move inversely to changes in interest rates, meaning a general rise in interest rates may cause bond prices to fall. Securities with variable or floating interest rates are generally less sensitive to interest rate movements than fixed rate securities, however, if interest rates do not change as expected or if they fall, variable or floating rate securities may not increase in value and may even decline. Credit risk arises when the issuer fails to pay interest or principal, and this risk tends to be higher for high yield or lower rated bonds. Prepayment risk occurs when the issuer repays principal sooner than anticipated, while extension risk occurs when repayment happens more slowly than expected. As a result, fixed income investments may be worth less than the original amount invested at redemption or maturity.
