• | Rights of Accumulation. A purchaser of Fund shares may qualify for a reduced sales charge by combining a current purchase (or combined purchases as described below) with shares previously purchased and still owned; provided the cumulative value of such shares (valued at cost or current net asset value, whichever is higher) amounts to $100,000 or more. In determining the value of shares previously purchased, the calculation will include, in addition to other Class A shares of the particular fund that were previously purchased, shares of the other classes of the same fund, as well as shares of any class of any other fund advised by SunAmerica, as long as such shares were sold with a sales charge at the time of purchase or acquired in exchange for shares purchased with a sales charge. |
• | Letter of Intent. A reduction of sales charges is also available to an investor who, pursuant to a written Letter of Intent, establishes a total investment goal in Class A shares of one or more eligible funds, to be achieved through any number of investments over a thirteen-month period, of $100,000 or more. Each investment in such funds made during the period will be subject to a reduced sales charge applicable to the goal amount. The initial purchase must be at least 5% of the stated investment goal and shares totaling 5% of the dollar amount of the Letter of Intent will be held in escrow by the Transfer Agent, in the name of the investor. |
• | Combined Purchases. In order to take advantage of reductions in sales charges that may be available to you when you purchase Fund shares, you must inform the Distributor or Transfer Agent if you have entered into a Letter of Intent or right of accumulation and if there are other accounts in which there are holdings eligible to be aggregated with your purchase. To receive a reduced front-end sales charge, you or your financial intermediary must inform the Fund that you believe you qualify for a discount at the time of your purchase of Fund shares. If you purchased shares through a financial intermediary, you may need to provide certain records, such as account statements for accounts held by family members or accounts you hold at another broker-dealer or financial intermediary, in order to verify your eligibility for reduced sales charges. |
• | Financial planners, institutions, broker-dealer representatives or registered investment advisers utilizing Fund shares in fee-based investment products under an agreement with ACS. The financial planner, financial institution or broker-dealer must have a supplemental selling agreement with ACS and charge its client(s) an advisory fee based on the assets under management on an annual basis. |
• | Participants in certain employer-sponsored benefit plans. The front-end sales charge is waived with respect to shares purchased by employer-sponsored retirement plans that offer the Fund as an investment vehicle, including qualified and non-qualified retirement plans, deferred compensation plans and other employer-sponsored retirement, savings or benefit plans, such as defined benefit plans, 401(k) plans, 457 plans, 403(b) plans, and other pension, educational and profit-sharing plans, but not IRAs. |
• | Current or retired officers and Trustees of the Trust and full-time employees of SunAmerica and its affiliates, as well as family members of the foregoing. |
• | Registered management investment companies that are advised by SunAmerica. |
• | Selling brokers and their employees and sales representatives and their families (i.e., members of a family unit comprised of immediate family members). |
• | Financial intermediaries who have entered into an agreement with the Distributor to offer shares through a no-load network or platform, or through self-directed investment brokerage accounts, that may or may not charge a transaction fee to its customers. |
• | Within one year of the shareholder becoming legally disabled or his or her death (individual and spousal joint tenancy accounts only). |
• | Taxable distributions to participants made by qualified retirement plans or retirement accounts (not including rollovers) for which AIG Fund Services, Inc. (“AFS” or the “Servicing Agent”) serves as fiduciary and in which the plan participant or account holder has attained the age of 591/2 at the time the redemption is made. |
• | Payments made through the Systematic Withdrawal Plan (subject to certain conditions). |
• | Eligible participant distributions from employer-sponsored retirement plans that meet the eligibility criteria set forth above under “Waivers for Certain Investors for Class A shares,” such as distributions due to death, disability, financial hardship, loans, retirement and termination of employment, or any return of excess contributions. |
• | Involuntary redemptions (e.g., closing of small accounts described under “Shareholder Account Information”). |
• | Dividend Reinvestment. Dividends and/or capital gains distributions received by a shareholder from the Fund will automatically be reinvested in additional shares of the Fund and share class without sales charge, at the net asset value per share in effect on the payable date. Alternatively, dividends and distributions may be reinvested in any retail fund distributed by ACS. Or, you may receive amounts in excess of $10.00 in cash if you elect in writing not less than five business days prior to the payment date. You will need to complete the relevant part of the Account Application to elect one of these other options. |
• | Exchange of Shares. Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for the same class of shares of one or more other retail funds distributed by ACS at net asset value per share at the time of exchange. Please refer to “Transaction Policies — Exchanges” in this Prospectus for more details about this program. In addition, in connection with advisory fee-based programs sponsored by certain financial intermediaries, and subject to the conditions set forth in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), shareholders may exchange their shares of the Fund (i) from Class C shares of the Fund into Class A shares of the Fund, (ii) from Class A or Class C shares of the Fund into Class W shares of the Fund and (iii) from Class W shares of the Fund into Class A shares of the Fund. Please refer to “Exchange Privilege” in the SAI for more details about these types of exchanges and the corresponding sales charge arrangements. |
• | Reinstatement Privilege. Within one year of a redemption of certain Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the Fund, the proceeds of the sale may be invested in the same share class of the Fund or any other retail fund distributed by ACS without a sales charge. A shareholder may use the reinstatement privilege only one time after selling such shares. If you paid a CDSC when you sold your shares, we will credit your account with the dollar amount of the CDSC at the time of sale. This may impact the amount of gain or loss recognized on the previous sale for tax purposes. All accounts involved must be registered in the same name(s). |

• | Employer-sponsored retirement plans (e.g., 401(k) plans, 457 plans, employer-sponsored 403(b) plans, profit sharing and money purchase pension plans and defined benefit plans). For purposes of this provision, employer-sponsored retirement plans do not include SEP IRAs, Simple IRAs or SARSEPs. |

• | Shares purchased from the proceeds of redemptions within the same fund family, provided (1) the repurchase occurs within 90 days following the redemption, (2) the redemption and purchase occur in the same account, and (3) redeemed shares were subject to a front-end or deferred sales load (i.e. Rights of Reinstatement). |
• | Effective on or after May 1, 2020, clients of Edward Jones (also referred to as “shareholders”) purchasing fund shares on the Edward Jones commission and fee-based platforms are eligible only for the following sales charge discounts (also referred to as “breakpoints”) and waivers, which can differ from breakpoints and waivers described elsewhere in the mutual fund prospectus or SAI or through another broker-dealer. In all instances, it is the shareholder’s responsibility to inform Edward Jones at the time of purchase of any relationship, holdings of AIG Funds or other facts qualifying the purchaser for breakpoints or waivers. Edward Jones can ask for documentation of such circumstance. |
• | The applicable sales charge on a purchase of Class A shares is determined by taking into account all share classes (except any money market funds and retirement plan share classes) of AIG Funds held by the shareholder or in an account grouped by Edward Jones with other accounts for the purpose of providing certain pricing considerations (“pricing groups”). This includes all share classes held on the Edward Jones platform and/or held on another platform. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the rights of accumulation calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying his or her financial advisor of such assets at the time of calculation. |
• | ROA is determined by calculating the higher of cost or market value (current shares x NAV). |
• | Through a LOI, shareholders can receive the sales charge and breakpoint discounts for purchases shareholders intend to make over a 13-month period from the date Edward Jones receives the LOI. The LOI is determined by calculating the higher of cost or market value of qualifying holdings at LOI initiation in combination with the value that the shareholder intends to buy over a 13-month period to calculate the front-end sales charge and any breakpoint discounts. Each purchase the shareholder makes during that 13-month period will receive the sales charge and breakpoint discount that applies to the total amount. The inclusion of eligible fund family assets in the LOI calculation is dependent on the shareholder notifying his or her financial advisor of such assets at the time of calculation. Purchases made before the LOI is received by Edward Jones are not covered under the LOI and will not reduce the sales charge previously paid. Sales charges will be adjusted if LOI is not met. |
• | Associates of Edward Jones and its affiliates and their family members who are in the same pricing group (as determined by Edward Jones under its policies and procedures) as the associate. This waiver will continue for the remainder of the associate’s life if the associate retires from Edward Jones in good-standing. |

• | Shares exchanged into class A shares from another share class so long as the exchange is into the same fund and was initiated at the discretion of Edward Jones. Edward Jones is responsible for any remaining CDSC due to the fund company, if applicable. Any future purchases are subject to the applicable sales charge as disclosed in the prospectus. |

When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery and Forward Commitment Securities | X | X | X |
Zero Coupon Securities | X | X | X |
• | Issuer: A bank, other financial institution or commodity producer. |
• | Maturity: Commodity-Linked Notes (12–18 months). |
• | Purchase Price: The Fund purchases a Note at a specified face value, for example $100 or $1,000. |
• | Payment Characteristics: A Fund receives an interest payment at a fixed coupon rate determined at the time of purchase. A Fund also receives a payment at maturity that is based on the price movement of the underlying commodity, for example heating oil, or a commodity index, (e.g., the Bloomberg Commodity Index Total Return). This payment will typically be an amount that is a multiple of the price increase or decrease of the underlying commodity or commodity index. |
• | “Put” and Automatic Redemption Features: A Fund typically has the right to “put” (or sell) a commodity-linked note to the issuer at any time, at a price based on the commodity-linked note’s face value as adjusted to reflect the price movement of the underlying commodity, commodity futures or option contract, commodity index, or other economic variable. A typical Note also provides that the issuer will automatically repurchase the Note from a Fund if the value of the Note decreases to a specified level, which would occur if the price of the underlying commodity, commodity futures or option contract, or commodity index, whichever the case may be, reached a level specified under the terms of the Note. |
• | Retail Properties. Retail properties are affected by the overall health of the applicable economy and may be adversely affected by the growth of alternative forms of retailing, bankruptcy, departure or cessation of operations of a tenant, a shift in consumer demand due to demographic changes, spending patterns and lease terminations. |
• | Office Properties. Office properties are affected by the overall health of the economy and other factors such as a downturn in the businesses operated by their tenants, obsolescence and non-competitiveness. |
• | Hotel Properties. The risks of hotel properties include, among other things, the necessity of a high level of continuing capital expenditures, competition, increases in operating costs which may not be offset by increases in revenues, dependence on business and commercial travelers and tourism, increases in fuel costs and other expenses of travel and adverse effects of general and local economic conditions. |
• | Healthcare Properties. Healthcare properties and healthcare providers are affected by several significant factors, including federal, state and local laws governing licenses, certification, adequacy of care, pharmaceutical distribution, medical rates, equipment, personnel and other factors regarding operations; continued availability of revenue from government reimbursement programs (primarily Medicaid and Medicare); and competition on a local and regional basis. |
• | Multifamily Properties. The value and successful operation of a multifamily property may be affected by a number of factors such as the location of the property, the ability of the management team, the level of mortgage rates, presence of competing properties, adverse economic conditions in the locale, oversupply and rent control laws or other laws affecting such properties. |
• | Insurance Issues. Certain real estate companies may carry comprehensive liability, fire, flood, earthquake extended coverage and rental loss insurance with various policy specifications, limits and deductibles. |
• | Credit Risk. REITs (as defined below) may be highly leveraged, and financial covenants may affect the ability of REITs to operate effectively. |
• | Environmental Issues. In connection with the ownership (direct or indirect), operation, management and development of real properties that may contain hazardous or toxic substances, a portfolio company may be considered an owner, operator or responsible party of such properties and, therefore, may be potentially liable for removal or remediation costs, as well as certain other costs, including governmental fines and liabilities for injuries to persons and property. |
• | Smaller Companies. Even the larger REITs in the industry tend to be small- to medium-sized companies in relation to the equity markets as a whole. REIT shares, therefore, can be more volatile than, and perform differently from, larger company stocks. |
• | REIT Tax Issues. REITs are subject to a highly technical and complex set of provisions in the Code. It is possible that the Fund may invest in a real estate company which purports to be a REIT and that the company could fail to qualify as a REIT. In the event of any such unexpected failure to qualify as a REIT, the company would be subject to corporate level taxation, significantly reducing the return to a Fund on its investment in such company. |
1. | Purchase securities on margin, but each Fund may obtain such short-term credits as may be necessary for the clearance of transactions; |
2. | Issue senior securities or borrow money or pledge its assets except that each Fund may borrow for temporary or emergency purposes in amounts not exceeding 5% (33 1/3% for Strategic Bond Fund, and the Flexible Credit Fund) (taken at the lower of cost or current value) of its total assets (not including the amount borrowed) and pledge its assets to secure such borrowings; |
3. | Purchase any security (other than obligations of the U.S. government, its agencies, or instrumentalities) if as a result: (i) as to 75% of the Fund’s total assets (taken at current value), more than 5% of such assets would then be invested in securities of a single issuer, or (ii) as to all of the Fund’s total assets, more than 25% of the Fund’s total assets (taken at current value) would be invested in a single industry, or (iii) as to all of the Fund’s total assets, the Fund would then hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of an issuer; |
4. | Buy or sell commodities or commodity contracts (except financial futures as described under “Investment Objectives and Policies” above) or real estate or interests in real estate, although it may purchase and sell securities which are secured by real estate and securities of companies which invest or deal in real estate; |

7. | Except for the Flexible Credit Fund, make short sales of securities to maintain a short position, except that each Fund may effect short sales against the box; |
8. | Purchase any security if as a result the Fund would then have more than 5% of its total assets (taken at current value) invested in securities of companies (including predecessors) less than three years old; |
9. | Invest in any securities of any issuer if, to the knowledge of the Fund, any officer, Trustee or director of the Trust or of the Adviser owns more than 1⁄2 of 1% of the outstanding securities of such issue, and such officers, Trustees or Directors who own more than 1⁄2 of 1% own in the aggregate more than 5% of the outstanding securities of such issuer; |

• | Base Salary—Each individual is paid a fixed base salary, which is designed to be competitive in light of the individual’s experience and responsibilities. Management uses independent, third-party compensation surveys of the investment industry to evaluate competitive market compensation for its employees. |
• | Incentive Bonus—Incentive bonus pools for non-investment personnel are generally based upon overall profitability. Annual incentive payments for investment personnel are based on targeted compensation levels, adjusted for profitability and investment performance factors, and a subjective assessment of contribution to the team effort. Individual payments are assessed using comparisons of actual investment performance with specific peer group or index measures. For compensation purposes, a fund’s performance is generally measured over one-, three-, and five-year periods and an individual manager’s participation is based on the performance of each fund/account managed. The short-term incentive payment is generally paid in cash, but a portion may be payable in RSUs. |
• | Other Benefits—Employees are also eligible to participate in broad-based plans including 401(k), health, and other employee benefit plans. |
• | Trade Allocations. One situation where a conflict may arise between a Fund and Other Client Accounts is in the allocation of trades among the Fund and the Other Client Accounts. For example, the Adviser or subadviser, as applicable, and/or portfolio manager may determine that there is a security that is suitable for a Fund as well as for Other Client Accounts that have a similar investment objective. Likewise, a particular security may be bought for one or more clients when one or more other clients are selling that same security, or the portfolio manager may take “short” positions in Other Client Accounts with respect to securities held “long” within a Fund, which may adversely affect the value of securities held by the Fund. In certain instances, the Adviser, a subadviser and/or portfolio manager may have ownership or different interests in Other Client Accounts, including different compensation with respect to Other Client Accounts, such as incentive fees. Such ownership or different interests may cause a conflict of interest. A Fund, the Adviser and the subadviser have adopted policies, procedures and/or practices regarding the allocation of trades and brokerage, which a Fund, the Adviser and the subadviser believe address the conflicts associated with managing multiple accounts for multiple clients (including affiliated clients). Subject to cash and security availability and lot size, among other factors, the policies, procedures and/or practices generally require that securities be allocated among a Fund and Other Client Accounts with a similar investment objective in a manner that is fair, equitable and consistent with their fiduciary obligations to each. |
• | Allocation of Portfolio Managers’ Time. The portfolio managers’ management of a Fund and Other Client Accounts may result in the portfolio manager devoting a disproportionate amount of time and attention to the management of a Fund and Other Client Accounts if the Fund and Other Client Accounts have different objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees. Generally, the Adviser or the subadvisers, as the case may be, seek to manage such competing interests for the time and attention of the portfolio managers. Although the Adviser or the subadvisers do not track the time a portfolio manager spends on the Fund or a single Other Client Account, the Adviser and the subadviser do periodically assess whether a portfolio manager has adequate time and resources to effectively manage all of such portfolio manager’s accounts. In certain instances, portfolio managers may be employed by two or more employers. Where the portfolio manager receives greater compensation, benefits or incentives from one employer over another, the portfolio manager may favor one employer over the other (or Other Client Accounts) causing a conflict of interest. |
• | Personal Trading by Portfolio Managers. The management of personal accounts by a portfolio manager may give rise to potential conflicts of interest. While generally, the Adviser’s and subadvisers’ Codes of Ethics will impose limits on the ability of a portfolio manager to trade for his or her personal account, especially where such trading might give rise to a potential conflict of interest, there is no assurance that the Adviser’s and Subadvisers’ Codes of Ethics will eliminate such conflicts. |

(d) | Systematic Withdrawal Plan. CDSCs may be waived when routine bill payment or periodic withdrawals are made from an investor’s account up to a maximum amount of 12% per year based on the value of the account at the time the Systematic Withdrawal Plan is established or at the time of withdrawal. All dividends and capital gains distributions must be reinvested. |

* | Class A shares may be subject to a CDSC on redemption of shares within twelve months of purchase. Rounded to nearest one-hundredth percent; assumes maximum sales charge is applicable. |
** | Class B shares are not subject to an initial sales charge but may be subject to a CDSC on redemption of shares within six years of purchase. |
*** | Class C shares are not subject to an initial sales charge but may be subject to a CDSC on redemption of shares within twelve months of purchase. |
Aaa | Obligations rated Aaa are judged to be of the highest quality, subject to the lowest level of credit risk. |
Aa | Obligations rated Aa are judged to be of high quality and are subject to very low credit risk. |
A | Obligations rated A are judged to be upper-medium grade and are subject to low credit risk. |
Baa | Obligations rated Baa are judged to be medium-grade and subject to moderate credit risk and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. |
Ba | Obligations rated Ba are judged to be speculative and are subject to substantial credit risk. |
B | Obligations rated B are considered speculative and are subject to high credit risk. |
Caa | Obligations rated Caa are judged to be speculative of poor standing and are subject to very high credit risk. |
Ca | Obligations rated Ca are highly speculative and are likely in, or very near, default, with some prospect of recovery of principal and interest. |
C | Obligations rated C are the lowest rated and are typically in default, with little prospect for recovery of principal or interest. |
P-1 | Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-1 have a superior ability to repay short-term debt obligations. |
P-2 | Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-2 have a strong ability to repay short-term debt obligations. |
P-3 | Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Prime-3 have an acceptable ability to repay short-term obligations. |
NP | Issuers (or supporting institutions) rated Not Prime do not fall within any of the Prime rating categories. |
MIG 1 | This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by established cash flows, highly reliable liquidity support, or demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing. |
MIG 2 | This designation denotes strong credit quality. Margins of protection are ample, although not as large as in the preceding group. |
MIG 3 | This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Liquidity and cash-flow protection may be narrow, and market access for refinancing is likely to be less well-established. |
* | By their terms, hybrid securities allow for the omission of scheduled dividends, interest, or principal payments, which can potentially result in impairment if such an omission occurs. Hybrid securities may also be subject to contractually allowable write-downs of principal that could result in impairment. Together with the hybrid indicator, the long-term obligation rating assigned to a hybrid security is an expression of the relative credit risk associated with that security. |
SG | This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Debt instruments in this category may lack sufficient margins of protection. |
VMIG 1 | This designation denotes superior credit quality. Excellent protection is afforded by the superior short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand. |
VMIG 2 | This designation denotes strong credit quality. Good protection is afforded by the strong short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand. |
VMIG 3 | This designation denotes acceptable credit quality. Adequate protection is afforded by the satisfactory short-term credit strength of the liquidity provider and structural and legal protections that ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand. |
SG | This designation denotes speculative-grade credit quality. Demand features rated in this category may be supported by a liquidity provider that does not have a sufficiently strong short-term rating or may lack the structural or legal protections necessary to ensure the timely payment of purchase price upon demand. |
• | The likelihood of payment—the capacity and willingness of the obligor to meet its financial commitments on an obligation in accordance with the terms of the obligation; |
• | The nature and provisions of the financial obligation, and the promise S&P imputes; and |
• | The protection afforded by, and relative position of, the financial obligation in the event of a bankruptcy, reorganization, or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting creditors’ rights. |
* | Plus (+) or minus (-): The ratings from ‘AA’ to ‘CCC’ may be modified by the addition of a plus (+) or minus (-) sign to show relative standing within the rating categories. |
AAA | An obligation rated ‘AAA’ has the highest rating assigned by S&P Global Ratings. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is extremely strong. |
AA | An obligation rated ‘AA’ differs from the highest-rated obligations only to a small degree. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is very strong. |
A | An obligation rated ‘A’ is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher-rated categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is still strong. |
BBB | An obligation rated ‘BBB’ exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. |
BB; B; CCC; CC; and C | Obligations rated ‘BB’, ‘B’, ‘CCC’, ‘CC’, and ‘C’ are regarded as having significant speculative characteristics. ‘BB’ indicates the least degree of speculation and ‘C’ the highest. While such obligations will likely have some quality and protective characteristics, these may be outweighed by large uncertainties or major exposure to adverse conditions. |
BB | An obligation rated ‘BB’ is less vulnerable to nonpayment than other speculative issues. However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions that could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. |
B | An obligation rated ‘B’ is more vulnerable to nonpayment than obligations rated ‘BB’, but the obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. Adverse business, financial, or economic conditions will likely impair the obligor’s capacity or willingness to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. |
CCC | An obligation rated ‘CCC’ is currently vulnerable to nonpayment and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. In the event of adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, the obligor is not likely to have the capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. |
CC | An obligation rated ‘CC’ is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment. The ‘CC’ rating is used when a default has not yet occurred but S&P Global Ratings expects default to be a virtual certainty, regardless of the anticipated time to default. |
C | An obligation rated ‘C’ is currently highly vulnerable to nonpayment, and the obligation is expected to have lower relative seniority or lower ultimate recovery compared with obligations that are rated higher. |
D | An obligation rated ‘D’ is in default or in breach of an imputed promise. For non-hybrid capital instruments, the ‘D’ rating category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due, unless S&P Global Ratings believes that such payments will be made within five business days in the absence of a stated grace period or within the earlier of the stated grace period or 30 calendar days. The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of similar action and where default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay provisions. A rating on an obligation is lowered to ‘D’ if it is subject to a distressed exchange offer. |
A-1 | A short-term obligation rated ‘A-1’ is rated in the highest category by S&P Global Ratings. The obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is strong. Within this category, certain obligations are designated with a plus sign (+). This indicates that the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on these obligations is extremely strong. |
A-2 | A short-term obligation rated ‘A-2’ is somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic conditions than obligations in higher rating categories. However, the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation is satisfactory. |
A-3 | A short-term obligation rated ‘A-3’ exhibits adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken an obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. |
B | A short-term obligation rated ‘B’ is regarded as vulnerable and has significant speculative characteristics. The obligor currently has the capacity to meet its financial commitments; however, it faces major ongoing uncertainties that could lead to the obligor’s inadequate capacity to meet its financial commitments. |
C | A short-term obligation rated ‘C’ is currently vulnerable to nonpayment and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic conditions for the obligor to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. |
D | A short-term obligation rated ‘D’ is in default or in breach of an imputed promise. For non-hybrid capital instruments, the ‘D’ rating category is used when payments on an obligation are not made on the date due, unless S&P Global Ratings believes that such payments will be made within any stated grace period. However, any stated grace period longer than five business days will be treated as five business days. The ‘D’ rating also will be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of a similar action and where default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay provisions. A rating on an obligation is lowered to ‘D’ if it is subject to a distressed exchange offer. |
• | Amortization schedule—the larger the final maturity relative to other maturities, the more likely it will be treated as a note; and |
• | Source of payment—the more dependent the issue is on the market for its refinancing, the more likely it will be treated as a note. |
SP-1 | Strong capacity to pay principal and interest. An issue determined to possess a very strong capacity to pay debt service is given a plus (+) designation. |
SP-2 | Satisfactory capacity to pay principal and interest, with some vulnerability to adverse financial and economic changes over the term of the notes. |
SP-3 | Speculative capacity to pay principal and interest. |
D | ‘D’ is assigned upon failure to pay the note when due, completion of a distressed exchange offer, or the filing of a bankruptcy petition or the taking of similar action and where default on an obligation is a virtual certainty, for example due to automatic stay provisions. |
AAA: | Highest credit quality. ‘AAA’ ratings denote the lowest expectation of credit risk. They are assigned only in cases of exceptionally strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This capacity is highly unlikely to be adversely affected by foreseeable events. |
AA: | Very high credit quality. ‘AA’ ratings denote expectations of very low credit risk. They indicate very strong capacity for payment of financial commitments. This capacity is not significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events. |
A: | High credit quality. ‘A’ ratings denote expectations of low credit risk. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered strong. This capacity may, nevertheless, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings. |
BBB: | Good credit quality. ‘BBB’ ratings indicate that expectations of credit risk are currently low. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate, but adverse business or economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity. |
BB: | Speculative. ‘BB’ ratings indicate an elevated vulnerability to credit risk, particularly in the event of adverse changes in business or economic conditions over time; however, business or financial alternatives may be available to allow financial commitments to be met. |
B: | Highly speculative. ‘B’ ratings indicate that material credit risk is present. |
CCC: | Substantial credit risk. ‘CCC’ ratings indicate that substantial credit risk is present. |
CC: | Very high levels of credit risk. ‘CC’ ratings indicate very high levels of credit risk. |
C: | Exceptionally high levels of credit risk. ‘C’ indicates exceptionally high levels of credit risk. |
F1: | Highest Short-Term Credit Quality. Indicates the strongest intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments; may have an added “+” to denote any exceptionally strong credit feature. |
F2: | Good Short-Term Credit Quality. Good intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments. |
F3: | Fair Short-Term Credit Quality. The intrinsic capacity for timely payment of financial commitments is adequate. |
B: | Speculative Short-Term Credit Quality. Minimal capacity for timely payment of financial commitments, plus heightened vulnerability to near term adverse changes in financial and economic conditions. |
C: | High Short-Term Default risk. Default is a real possibility. |
RD: | Restricted Default. Indicates an entity that has defaulted on one or more of its financial commitments, although it continues to meet other financial obligations. Typically applicable to entity ratings only. |
D: | Default Indicates a broad-based default event for an entity, or the default of a short-term obligation. |
IFSAI - 7/20 | 113 |
(a) | a final decision on the merits by a court or other body before whom the proceeding was brought that the person to be indemnified (“Indemnitee”) was not liable by reason of having engaged in willful malfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duties (“Disabling Conduct”); or |
(b) | in the absence of such a decision, a reasonable determination, based upon a review of the facts, that the Indemnitee was not liable by reason of Disabling Conduct, made by either: |
(i) | a majority of a quorum of Trustees who are neither “interested persons” of the Trust, as defined in section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, nor parties to the action, suit or proceeding (“Independent Non-Party Directors”); or |
(ii) | the then-current legal counsel to the Independent Directors or (ii) other legal counsel chosen by a majority of the Independent Directors (or if there are no Independent Directors with respect to the matter in question, by a majority of the Directors who are not “interested persons” of the Fund as defined in Section 2(a)(9) of the 1940 Act) and determined by them in their reasonable judgment to be independent, in a written opinion (“Independent Counsel”). |
(a) | the Trust receives a written undertaking by the Covered Person to reimburse the Trust if it shall ultimately be determined that the standards of conduct necessary for indemnification have not been met; and |
(b) | at least one of the following conditions has been met: |
(i) | the Covered Person has provided adequate security for his or her undertaking, or |
(ii) | the Trust has been insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances; or |
(iii) | a majority of a quorum of the Independent Non-Party Directors, or Independent Counsel in a written opinion has concluded, based on a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry), that there is substantial reason to believe that the Covered Person ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification. |
