The investment seeks to achieve positive absolute returns over the long-term with low volatility when compared to traditional market indices. The fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of convertible securities issued by both U.S. and foreign companies. These convertible securities are typically debt securities or preferred stocks that can be exchanged for, or convert automatically to, common stock. The fund may invest, long or short, in securities of issuers of any market capitalization in the U.S. or abroad.
