TCW Unconstrained Bond Fund
LU1109965431
Classe IU (USD)
100.00 12/09/2014
A “Cash-Plus” US Flexible (Fixed Income) Fund
The Sub-Fund seeks to provide investors with positive long-term returns irrespective of general securities market conditions. The Sub-Fund invests (except
when maintaining a temporary defensive position) directly at least 80% of its net assets in securities and instruments qualifying as bonds in the U.S. and
abroad, including Emerging Market Countries, and in derivative instruments that provide investment exposure to such securities. The Sub-Fund may purchase securities of varying maturities issued by domestic and foreign corporations and governments. The Sub-Fund may invest in both investment grade and high yield fixed income securities (commonly called “junk bonds”), subject to investing no more than 50% of its total assets (measured at the time of investment) in securities rated below investment grade by Moody’s, S&P or Fitch, or, if unrated, determined by the Investment Manager to be of comparable quality. The use of the term “unconstrained” in the Sub-Fund’s name means that it is not limited by the types of investments in a particular securities index. The Sub-Fund is not managed to be compared to any such index. The Sub-Fund also is unconstrained in the sense that it is not limited to any single type of investment strategy.
