The TSW Core Plus Bond Fund is managed by Bill Bellamy, who is a 21-year veteran of the firm and has been responsible for managing the strategy since 2005. The fund aims to outperform the benchmark and generate strong risk-adjusted returns over market cycles. Security selection and sector allocation have been the main drivers of return while duration and yield curve positioning are considered secondary contributors. As a nimble manager, the team feels that strong in-house fundamental analysis can lead to opportunities in the credit market often overlooked by larger investment managers. The “plus” portion of the fund is an allocation to high yield credit of up to 20% and this decision is mainly driven by relative value analysis versus investment grade bonds. The high yield allocation serves as income and return enhancer to an otherwise traditional core bond portfolio.
The investment objective of the TSW Core Plus Bond Fund (the “Fund”) is to seek strong, risk-adjusted total return over a market cycle.

Risk Considerations
The value of the Fund’s investments will fluctuate with market conditions, and the value of your investment in the Fund also will vary. Value securities are securities of companies that may have experienced adverse business, industry, or other developments or may be subject to special risks that have caused the securities to be out of favor and, in turn, potentially undervalued. Fixed income securities will increase or decrease in value based on changes in interest rates. If rates increase, the value of the Fund’s fixed income securities generally declines. On the other hand, if rates fall, the value of the fixed income securities generally increases. Below investment grade fixed income securities, also known as “junk bonds,” are not investment grade and are generally considered speculative because they present a greater risk of loss than higher quality debt securities. Investing in non-U.S. securities poses additional market risks since political and economic events unique in a country or region will affect those markets and their issuers and may not affect the U.S. economy or U.S. issuers.
Read the prospectus and summary prospectus carefully before investing. Investing includes the risk of loss.
