  Investment Objective & Strategy  
The investment seeks to provide a high level of current income.
The fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in income producing floating rate loans and other floating rate debt securities. It invests primarily in senior floating rate loans of domestic and foreign borrowers ("Senior Loans"). Loans usually are of below investment grade quality and have below investment grade credit ratings, such ratings are associated with securities having high risk and speculative characteristics (sometimes referred to as "junk").
  Morningstar Category: Bank Loan
Bank-loan portfolios primarily invest in floating-rate bank loans and floating-rate below investment-grade securities instead of bonds. In exchange for their credit risk, these loans offer high interest payments that typically float above a common short-term benchmarks such as Libor or SOFR. 
  Investment Risks
There are no additional fund specific investment risks (e.g. liquidity risk, currency risk, foreign investment risk, etc.) associated with this fund beyond the normal risks generally associated with investing in a mutual fund.
