Global Bond Fund

Overview Commentary Management Philosophy Process Performance

The investment team at Loomis Sayles & Company, L.P. ("Loomis") believes that there are inefficiencies inherent in bond markets, hence the greatest opportunities to add value, reside in the pricing of credit risk. Their philosophy is to identify attractively valued issues through fundamental research.  The investment team and analysts at Loomis generally seek fixed income securities of issuers whose credit profiles it believes are improving. The investment team also analyzes political, economic, and other fundamental factors and combines this analysis with a comparison of the yield spreads of various fixed income securities throughout the world in an effort to find securities that they believe may produce attractive returns in comparison to their risk. Finally, if a security that is believed to be attractive is denominated in a foreign currency, Loomis analyzes whether to accept or to hedge the currency risk.
