NOTES
TO
THE
SCHEDULE
OF
INVESTMENTS
Investment
Valuation
The
Fund’s
valuation
policy
is
to
value
investments
at
fair
value.
Investments
and
Fair
Value
Measurements
U.S.
GAAP
defines
the
fair
value
of
a
financial
instrument
as
the
amount
that
would
be
received
to
sell
an
asset
or
paid
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date
(i.e.,
the
exit
price);
the
Fund’s
policy
is
to
use
the
market
approach.
GAAP
establishes
a
fair
value
hierarchy
that
prioritizes
the
inputs
to
valuation
techniques
used
to
measure
fair
value.
The
hierarchy
gives
the
highest
priority
to
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
assets
or
liabilities
(Level
1
measurements)
and
the
lowest
priority
to
unobservable
inputs
(Level
3
measurements).
The
level
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy
within
which
the
fair
value
measurement
in
its
entirety
falls
shall
be
determined
based
on
the
lowest
level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
measurement
in
its
entirety.
The
levels
used
for
classifying
investments
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
these
investments.
The
three
levels
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy
are
described
below:
Level
1
Unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
that
are
accessible
at
the
measurement
date
for
identical,
unrestricted
assets
or
liabilities;
Level
2
Quoted
prices
in
markets
that
are
not
active
or
financial
instruments
for
which
significant
inputs
are
observable
(including,
but
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
investments,
interest
rates,
foreign
exchange
rates,
volatility
and
credit
spreads),
either
directly
or
indirectly;
Level
3
Prices
or
valuations
that
require
significant
unobservable
inputs
(including
GSAM’s
assumptions
in
determining
fair
value
measurement).
The
Board
of
Trustees
(“Trustees”)
has
approved
Valuation
Procedures
that
govern
the
valuation
of
the
portfolio
investments
held
by
the
Fund,
including
investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
not
readily
available.
With
respect
to
the
Fund’s
investments
that
do
not
have
readily
available
market
quotations,
the
Trustees
have
designated
the
Adviser
as
the
valuation
designee
to
perform
fair
valuations
pursuant
to
Rule
2a-5
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940
(the
“Valuation
Designee”).
GSAM
has
day-to-day
responsibility
for
implementing
and
maintaining
internal
controls
and
procedures
related
to
the
valuation
of
the
Fund’s
investments.
To
assess
the
continuing
appropriateness
of
pricing
sources
and
methodologies,
GSAM
regularly
performs
price
verification
procedures
and
issues
challenges
as
necessary
to
third
party
pricing
vendors
or
brokers,
and
any
differences
are
reviewed
in
accordance
with
the
Valuation
Procedures.
A.
Level
1
and
Level
2
Fair
Value
Investments
The
valuation
techniques
and
significant
inputs
used
in
determining
the
fair
values
for
investments
classified
as
Level
1
and
Level
2
are
as
follows:
Money
Market
Funds
Investments
in
the
Goldman
Sachs
Financial
Square
Government
Fund
(“Underlying
Money
Market
Fund”)
are
valued
at
the
NAV
per
share
of
the
Institutional
Share
class
on
the
day
of
valuation.
These
investments
are
generally
classified
as
Level
1
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
For
information
regarding
the
Underlying
Money
Market
Fund’s
accounting
policies
and
investment
holdings,
please
see
the
Underlying
Money
Market
Fund’s
shareholder
report.
Debt
Securities
Debt
securities
for
which
market
quotations
are
readily
available
are
valued
daily
on
the
basis
of
quotations
supplied
by
dealers
or
an
independent
pricing
service.
The
pricing
services
may
use
valuation
models
or
matrix
pricing,
which
consider:
(I)
yield
or
price
with
respect
to
bonds
that
are
considered
comparable
in
characteristics
such
as
rating,
interest
rate
and
maturity
date
or
(ii)
quotations
from
securities
dealers
to
determine
current
value.
With
the
exception
of
treasury
securities
of
G7
countries,
which
are
generally
classified
as
Level
1,
these
investments
are
generally
classified
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
i.
Mortagage-Backed
and
Asset-Backed
Securities
Mortgage-backed
securities
represent
direct
or
indirect
participations
in,
or
are
collateralized
by
and
payable
from,
mortgage
loans
secured
by
residential
and/or
commercial
real
estate
property.
Asset-backed
securities
include
securities
whose
principal
and
interest
payments
are
collateralized
by
pools
of
other
assets
or
receivables.
The
value
of
certain
mortgage-backed
and
asset-backed
securities
(including
adjustable
rate
mortgage
loans)
may
be
particularly
sensitive
to
changes
in
prevailing
interest
rates.
The
value
of
these
securities
may
also
fluctuate
in
response
to
the
market’s
perception
of
the
creditworthiness
of
the
issuers.
Asset-backed
securities
may
present
credit
risks
that
are
not
presented
by
mortgage-backed
securities
because
they
generally
do
not
have
the
benefit
of
a
security
interest
in
collateral
that
is
comparable
to
mortgage
assets.
Some
asset-backed
securities
may
only
have
a
subordinated
claim
on
collateral.

(Unaudited)
Stripped
mortgage-backed
securities
are
usually
structured
with
two
different
classes:
one
that
receives
substantially
all
interest
payments
(interest-only,
or
“IO”
and/or
high
coupon
rate
with
relatively
low
principal
amount,
or
“IOette”),
and
the
other
that
receives
substantially
all
principal
payments
(principal-only,
or
“PO”)
from
a
pool
of
mortgage
loans.
Little
to
no
principal
will
be
received
at
the
maturity
of
an
IO;
as
a
result,
periodic
adjustments
are
recorded
to
reduce
the
cost
of
the
security
until
maturity.
These
adjustments
are
included
in
interest
income.
ii.
Treasury
Inflation
Protected
Securities
TIPS
are
treasury
securities
in
which
the
principal
amount
is
adjusted
daily
to
keep
pace
with
inflation,
as
measured
by
the
U.S.
Consumer
Pricing
Index
for
Urban
Consumers.
The
repayment
of
the
original
bond
principal
upon
maturity
is
guaranteed
by
the
full
faith
and
credit
of
the
U.S.
Government.
iii.
When-Issued
Securities
and
Forward
Commitments
When-issued
securities,
including
TBA
(“To
Be
Announced”)
securities,
are
securities
that
are
authorized
but
not
yet
issued
in
the
market
and
purchased
in
order
to
secure
what
is
considered
to
be
an
advantageous
price
or
yield
to
the
Fund.
A
forward
commitment
involves
entering
into
a
contract
to
purchase
or
sell
securities,
typically
on
an
extended
settlement
basis,
for
a
fixed
price
at
a
future
date.
The
purchase
of
securities
on
a
when-issued
or
forward
commitment
basis
involves
a
risk
of
loss
if
the
value
of
the
security
to
be
purchased
declines
before
the
settlement
date.
Conversely,
the
sale
of
securities
on
a
forward
commitment
basis
involves
the
risk
that
the
value
of
the
securities
sold
may
increase
before
the
settlement
date.
Although
the
Fund
will
generally
purchase
securities
on
a
when-issued
or
forward
commitment
basis
with
the
intention
of
acquiring
the
securities
for
its
portfolio,
the
Fund
may
dispose
of
when-issued
securities
or
forward
commitments
prior
to
settlement,
which
may
result
in
a
realized
gain
or
loss.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
cash
collateral
that
has
been
pledged
to
cover
obligations
of
the
Fund
and
cash
collateral
received,
if
any,
is
reported
separately
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
as
receivables/payables
for
collateral
on
other
investments.
Non-cash
collateral
pledged
by
the
Fund,
if
any,
is
noted
in
the
Schedule
of
Investments.
Derivative
Contracts
derivative
is
an
instrument
whose
value
is
derived
from
underlying
assets,
indices,
reference
rates
or
a
combination
of
these
factors.
The
Fund
enters
into
derivative
transactions
to
hedge
against
changes
in
interest
rates,
securities
prices,
and/or
currency
exchange
rates,
to
increase
total
return,
or
to
gain
access
to
certain
markets
or
attain
exposure
to
other
underliers
.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
cash
collateral
that
has
been
pledged
to
cover
obligations
of
the
Fund
and
cash
collateral
received,
if
any,
is
reported
separately
on
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
as
either
due
to
broker/receivable
for
collateral
on
certain
derivative
contracts.
Non-cash
collateral
pledged
by
the
Fund,
if
any,
is
noted
in
the
Schedule
of
Investments.
Exchange-traded
derivatives,
including
futures
and
options
contracts,
are
generally
valued
at
the
last
sale
or
settlement
price
on
the
exchange
where
they
are
principally
traded.
Exchange-traded
options
without
settlement
prices
are
generally
valued
at
the
midpoint
of
the
bid
and
ask
prices
on
the
exchange
where
they
are
principally
traded
(or,
in
the
absence
of
two-way
trading,
at
the
last
bid
price
for
long
positions
and
the
last
ask
price
for
short
positions).
Exchange-traded
derivatives
typically
fall
within
Level
1
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Over-the-counter
(“OTC”)
and
centrally
cleared
derivatives
are
valued
using
market
transactions
and
other
market
evidence,
including
market-based
inputs
to
models,
calibration
to
market-clearing
transactions,
broker
or
dealer
quotations,
or
other
alternative
pricing
sources.
Where
models
are
used,
the
selection
of
a
particular
model
to
value
OTC
and
centrally
cleared
derivatives
depends
upon
the
contractual
terms
of,
and
specific
risks
inherent
in,
the
instrument,
as
well
as
the
availability
of
pricing
information
in
the
market.
Valuation
models
require
a
variety
of
inputs,
including
contractual
terms,
market
prices,
yield
curves,
credit
curves,
measures
of
volatility,
voluntary
and
involuntary
prepayment
rates,
loss
severity
rates
and
correlations
of
such
inputs.
For
OTC
and
centrally
cleared
derivatives
that
trade
in
liquid
markets,
model
inputs
can
generally
be
verified
and
model
selection
does
not
involve
significant
management
judgment.
OTC
and
centrally
cleared
derivatives
are
classified
within
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy
when
significant
inputs
are
corroborated
by
market
evidence.
i.
Forward
Contracts
A
forward
contract
is
a
contract
between
two
parties
to
buy
or
sell
an
asset
at
a
specified
price
on
a
future
date.
A
forward
contract
settlement
can
occur
on
a
cash
or
delivery
basis.
Forward
contracts
are
marked-to-market
daily
using
independent
vendor
prices,
and
the
change
in
value,
if
any,
is
recorded
as
an
unrealized
gain
or
loss.
Cash
and
certain
investments
may
be
used
to
collateralize
forward
contracts.
A
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contract
is
a
forward
contract
in
which
the
Fund
agrees
to
receive
or
deliver
a
fixed
quantity
of
one
currency
for
another,
at
a
pre-determined
price
at
a
future
date.
All
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
are
marked
to
market
daily
by
using
the
outright
forward
rates
or
interpolating
based
upon
maturity
dates,
where
available.
Non-deliverable
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
are
settled
with
the
counterparty
in
cash
without
the
delivery
of
foreign
currency.

Futures
Contracts
Futures
contracts
are
contracts
to
buy
or
sell
a
standardized
quantity
of
a
specified
commodity
or
security.
Upon
entering
into
a
futures
contract,
the
Fund
deposits
cash
or
securities
in
an
account
on
behalf
of
the
broker
in
an
amount
sufficient
to
meet
the
initial
margin
requirement.
Subsequent
payments
are
made
or
received
by
the
Fund
equal
to
the
daily
change
in
the
contract
value
and
are
recorded
as
variation
margin
receivable
or
payable
with
a
corresponding
offset
to
unrealized
gains
or
losses.
iii.
Options
When
the
Fund
writes
call
or
put
options,
an
amount
equal
to
the
premium
received
is
recorded
as
a
liability
and
is
subsequently
marked-to-market
to
reflect
the
current
value
of
the
option
written.
Swaptions
are
options
on
swap
contracts.
Upon
the
purchase
of
a
call
option
or
a
put
option
by
the
Fund,
the
premium
paid
is
recorded
as
an
investment
and
subsequently
marked-
to-market
to
reflect
the
current
value
of
the
option.
Certain
options
may
be
purchased
with
premiums
to
be
determined
on
a
future
date.
The
premiums
for
these
options
are
based
upon
implied
volatility
parameters
at
specified
terms.
iv.
Swap
Contracts
Bilateral
swap
contracts
are
agreements
in
which
the
Fund
and
a
counterparty
agree
to
exchange
periodic
payments
on
a
specified
notional
amount
or
make
a
net
payment
upon
termination.
Bilateral
swap
transactions
are
privately
negotiated
in
the
OTC
market
and
payments
are
settled
through
direct
payments
between
the
Fund
and
the
counterparty.
By
contrast,
certain
swap
transactions
are
subject
to
mandatory
central
clearing.
These
swaps
are
executed
through
a
derivatives
clearing
member
(“DCM”),
acting
in
an
agency
capacity,
and
submitted
to
a
central
counterparty
(“CCP”)
(“centrally
cleared
swaps”),
in
which
case
all
payments
are
settled
with
the
CCP
through
the
DCM.
Swaps
are
marked-to-market
daily
using
pricing
vendor
quotations,
counterparty
or
clearinghouse
prices
or
model
prices,
and
the
change
in
value,
if
any,
is
recorded
as
an
unrealized
gain
or
loss.
Upon
entering
into
a
swap
contract,
the
Fund
is
required
to
satisfy
an
initial
margin
requirement
by
delivering
cash
or
securities
to
the
counterparty
(or
in
some
cases,
segregated
in
a
triparty
account
on
behalf
of
the
counterparty),
which
can
be
adjusted
by
any
mark-to-market
gains
or
losses
pursuant
to
bilateral
or
centrally
cleared
arrangements.
For
centrally
cleared
swaps
the
daily
change
in
valuation,
if
any,
is
recorded
as
a
receivable
or
payable
for
variation
margin.
An
interest
rate
swap
is
an
agreement
that
obligates
two
parties
to
exchange
a
series
of
cash
flows
at
specified
intervals,
based
upon
or
calculated
by
reference
to
changes
in
interest
rates
on
a
specified
notional
principal
amount.
The
payment
flows
are
usually
netted
against
each
other,
with
the
difference
being
paid
by
one
party
to
the
other.
A
credit
default
swap
is
an
agreement
that
involves
one
party
(the
buyer
of
protection)
making
a
stream
of
payments
to
another
party
(the
seller
of
protection)
in
exchange
for
the
right
to
receive
protection
on
a
reference
security
or
obligation,
including
a
group
of
assets
or
exposure
to
the
performance
of
an
index.
The
Fund’s
investment
in
credit
default
swaps
may
involve
greater
risks
than
if
the
Fund
had
invested
in
the
referenced
obligation
directly.
Credit
events
are
contract
specific
but
may
include
bankruptcy,
failure
to
pay,
restructuring
and
obligation
acceleration.
If
the
Fund
buys
protection
through
a
credit
default
swap
and
no
credit
event
occurs,
its
payments
are
limited
to
the
periodic
payments
previously
made
to
the
counterparty.
Upon
the
occurrence
of
a
specified
credit
event,
the
Fund,
as
a
buyer
of
credit
protection,
is
entitled
to
receive
an
amount
equal
to
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap
and
deliver
to
the
seller
the
defaulted
reference
obligation
in
a
physically
settled
trade.
The
Fund
may
also
receive
a
net
settlement
amount
in
the
form
of
cash
or
securities
equal
to
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap
reduced
by
the
recovery
value
of
the
reference
obligation
in
a
cash
settled
trade.
As
a
seller
of
protection,
the
Fund
generally
receives
a
payment
stream
throughout
the
term
of
the
swap,
provided
that
there
is
no
credit
event.
In
addition,
if
the
Fund
sells
protection
through
a
credit
default
swap,
the
Fund
could
suffer
a
loss
because
the
value
of
the
referenced
obligation
and
the
premium
payments
received
may
be
less
than
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap
paid
to
the
buyer
of
protection.
Upon
the
occurrence
of
a
specified
credit
event,
the
Fund,
as
a
seller
of
credit
protection,
may
be
required
to
take
possession
of
the
defaulted
reference
obligation
and
pay
the
buyer
an
amount
equal
to
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap
in
a
physically
settled
trade.
The
Fund
may
also
pay
a
net
settlement
amount
in
the
form
of
cash
or
securities
equal
to
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap
reduced
by
the
recovery
value
of
the
reference
obligation
in
a
cash
settled
trade.
Recovery
values
are
at
times
established
through
the
credit
event
auction
process
in
which
market
participants
are
ensured
that
a
transparent
price
has
been
set
for
the
defaulted
security
or
obligation.
In
addition,
the
Fund
is
entitled
to
a
return
of
any
assets,
which
have
been
pledged
as
collateral
to
the
counterparty
upon
settlement.
The
maximum
potential
amount
of
future
payments
(undiscounted)
that
the
Fund
as
seller
of
protection
could
be
required
to
make
under
a
credit
default
swap
would
be
an
amount
equal
to
the
notional
amount
of
the
agreement.
These
potential
amounts
would
be
partially
offset
by
any
recovery
values
of
the
respective
referenced
obligations
or
net
amounts
received
from
a
settlement
of
a
credit
default
swap
for
the
same
reference
security
or
obligation
where
the
Fund
bought
credit
protection.

The
Funds’
risks
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
the
following:
Derivatives
Risk
The
Fund’s
use
of
derivatives
and
other
similar
instruments
(collectively
referred
to
in
this
paragraph
as
“derivatives”)
may
result
in
loss,
including
due
to
adverse
market
movements.
Derivatives,
which
may
pose
risks
in
addition
to
and
greater
than
those
associated
with
investing
directly
in
securities,
currencies
or
other
assets
and
instruments,
may
increase
market
exposure
and
be
illiquid
or
less
liquid,
volatile,
difficult
to
price
and
leveraged
so
that
small
changes
in
the
value
of
the
underlying
assets
or
instruments
may
produce
disproportionate
losses
to
the
Fund.
Certain
derivatives
are
also
subject
to
counterparty
risk,
which
is
the
risk
that
the
other
party
in
the
transaction
will
not,
or
lacks
the
capacity
or
authority
to,
fulfill
its
contractual
obligations,
liquidity
risk,
which
includes
the
risk
that
the
Fund
will
not
be
able
to
exit
the
derivative
when
it
is
advantageous
to
do
so,
and
risks
arising
from
margin
requirements,
which
include
the
risk
that
the
Fund
will
be
required
to
pay
additional
margin
or
set
aside
additional
collateral
to
maintain
open
derivative
positions.
The
use
of
derivatives
is
a
highly
specialized
activity
that
involves
investment
techniques
and
risks
different
from
those
associated
with
investments
in
more
traditional
securities
and
instruments.
Losses
from
derivatives
can
also
result
from
a
lack
of
correlation
between
changes
in
the
value
of
derivative
instruments
and
the
portfolio
assets
(if
any)
being
hedged.
Floating
and
Variable
Rate
Obligations
Risk
Floating
rate
and
variable
rate
obligations
are
debt
instruments
issued
by
companies
or
other
entities
with
interest
rates
that
reset
periodically
(typically,
daily,
monthly,
quarterly,
or
semiannually)
in
response
to
changes
in
the
market
rate
of
interest
on
which
the
interest
rate
is
based.
Such
market
rates
are
generally
the
Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate
(“SOFR”),
a
term
SOFR
rate
published
by
CME
Group
Benchmark
Administration
Limited
(CBA)
calculated
using
certain
derivatives
markets
(“Term
SOFR”),
London
Interbank
Offered
Rate
(“LIBOR”),
the
Prime
Rate
of
a
designated
U.S.
bank,
the
Federal
Funds
Rate,
or
another
base
lending
rate
used
by
commercial
lenders.
For
floating
and
variable
rate
obligations,
there
may
be
a
lag
between
an
actual
change
in
the
underlying
interest
rate
benchmark
and
the
reset
time
for
an
interest
payment
of
such
an
obligation,
which
could
harm
or
benefit
the
Fund,
depending
on
the
interest
rate
environment
or
other
circumstances.
In
a
rising
interest
rate
environment,
for
example,
a
floating
or
variable
rate
obligation
that
does
not
reset
immediately
would
prevent
the
Fund
from
taking
full
advantage
of
rising
interest
rates
in
a
timely
manner.
However,
in
a
declining
interest
rate
environment,
the
Fund
may
benefit
from
a
lag
due
to
an
obligation’s
interest
rate
payment
not
being
immediately
impacted
by
a
decline
in
interest
rates.
Some
floating
or
variable
rate
obligations
or
investments
of
the
Fund
may
reference
(or
may
have
previously
referenced)
the
London
Interbank
Offered
Rate
(“LIBOR”).
As
a
result
of
benchmark
reforms,
publication
of
most
LIBOR
settings
has
ceased.
Some
LIBOR
settings
continue
to
be
published
but
only
on
a
temporary,
synthetic
and
non-representative
basis
and
are
expected
to
cease
being
published
in
September
2024.
Regulated
entities
have
generally
ceased
entering
into
new
LIBOR
contracts
in
connection
with
regulatory
guidance
or
prohibitions.
Public
and
private
sector
actors
have
worked
to
establish
alternative
reference
rates,
like
SOFR
or
Term
SOFR,
to
be
used
in
place
of
LIBOR.
There
is
no
assurance
that
any
such
alternative
reference
rate
will
be
similar
to
or
produce
the
same
value
or
economic
equivalence
as
LIBOR
or
that
it
will
have
the
same
volume
or
liquidity
as
did
LIBOR
which
may
affect
the
value,
volatility,
liquidity
or
return
on
certain
of
the
Fund’s
floating
and
variable
rate
obligations
and
investments
and
result
in
costs
incurred
in
connection
with
changing
reference
rates
used
for
positions,
closing
out
positions
and
entering
into
new
trades.
Certain
of
the
Fund’s
obligations
or
investments
may
have
transitioned
from
LIBOR
or
may
transition
from
LIBOR
in
the
future.
The
transition
from
LIBOR
to
alternative
reference
rates
may
result
in
operational
issues
for
the
Fund
or
its
obligations
or
investments.
Any
pricing
adjustments
to
the
Fund’s
obligations
or
investments
resulting
from
use
of
an
alternative
reference
rate
may
also
adversely
affect
the
Fund’s
performance
and/or
NAV.
No
assurances
can
be
given
as
to
the
impact
of
the
LIBOR
transition
(and
the
timing
of
any
such
impact)
on
the
Fund
and
its
obligations
and
investments.
Interest
Rate
Risk
When
interest
rates
increase,
fixed
income
securities
or
instruments
held
by
a
Fund
will
generally
decline
in
value.
Long-term
fixed
income
securities
or
instruments
will
normally
have
more
price
volatility
because
of
this
risk
than
short-term
fixed
income
securities
or
instruments.
A
wide
variety
of
market
factors
can
cause
interest
rates
to
rise,
including
central
bank
monetary
policy,
rising
inflation
and
changes
in
general
economic
conditions.
Changing
interest
rates
may
have
unpredictable
effects
on
the
markets,
may
result
in
heightened
market
volatility
and
may
detract
from
the
Fund’s
performance.
In
addition,
changes
in
monetary
policy
may
exacerbate
the
risks
associated
with
changing
interest
rates.
Funds
with
longer
average
portfolio
durations
will
generally
be
more
sensitive
to
changes
in
interest
rates
than
funds
with
a
shorter
average
portfolio
duration.
Fluctuations
in
interest
rates
may
also
affect
the
liquidity
of
fixed
income
securities
and
instruments
held
by
the
Fund.
A
sudden
or
unpredictable
increase
in
interest
rates
may
cause
volatility
in
the
market
and
may
decrease
the
liquidity
of
the
Fund’s
investments,
which
would
make
it
harder
for
the
Fund
to
sell
its
investments
at
an
advantageous
time.

Schedule
of
Investments
(continued)
September

2023
(Unaudited)
Investments
in
Other
Investment
Companies
Risk
As
a
shareholder
of
another
investment
company,
the
Fund
will
indirectly
bear
its
proportionate
share
of
any
net
management
fees
and
other
expenses
paid
by
such
other
investment
companies,
in
addition
to
the
fees
and
expenses
regularly
borne
by
the
Fund.
Large
Shareholder
Transactions
Risk
The
Fund
may
experience
adverse
effects
when
certain
large
shareholders,
such
as
other
funds,
participating
insurance
companies
and
Goldman
Sachs
affiliates,
purchase
or
redeem
large
amounts
of
shares
of
the
Fund.
Such
large
shareholder
redemptions,
which
may
occur
rapidly
or
unexpectedly,
may
cause
the
Fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities
at
times
when
it
would
not
otherwise
do
so,
which
may
negatively
impact
the
Fund’s
NAV
and
liquidity.
These
transactions
may
also
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income
to
shareholders
if
such
sales
of
investments
resulted
in
gains,
and
may
also
increase
transaction
costs.
In
addition,
a
large
redemption
could
result
in
the
Fund’s
current
expenses
being
allocated
over
a
smaller
asset
base,
leading
to
an
increase
in
the
Fund’s
expense
ratio.
Similarly,
large
Fund
share
purchases
may
adversely
affect
the
Fund’s
performance
to
the
extent
that
the
Fund
is
delayed
in
investing
new
cash
or
otherwise
maintains
a
larger
cash
position
than
it
ordinarily
would.
Liquidity
Risk
The
Fund
may
make
investments
that
are
illiquid
or
that
may
become
less
liquid
in
response
to
market
developments
or
adverse
investor
perceptions.
Illiquid
investments
may
be
more
difficult
to
value.
Liquidity
risk
may
also
refer
to
the
risk
that
the
Fund
will
not
be
able
to
pay
redemption
proceeds
within
the
allowable
time
period
or
without
significant
dilution
to
remaining
investors’
interests
because
of
unusual
market
conditions,
declining
prices
of
the
securities
sold,
an
unusually
high
volume
of
redemption
requests,
or
other
reasons.
To
meet
redemption
requests,
the
Fund
may
be
forced
to
sell
investments
at
an
unfavorable
time
and/or
under
unfavorable
conditions.
If
the
Fund
is
forced
to
sell
securities
at
an
unfavorable
time
and/or
under
unfavorable
conditions,
such
sales
may
adversely
affect
the
Fund’s
NAV
and
dilute
remaining
investors’
interests.
Liquidity
risk
may
be
the
result
of,
among
other
things,
the
reduced
number
and
capacity
of
traditional
market
participants
to
make
a
market
in
fixed
income
securities
or
the
lack
of
an
active
market.
The
potential
for
liquidity
risk
may
be
magnified
by
a
rising
interest
rate
environment
or
other
circumstances
where
investor
redemptions
from
fixed
income
funds
may
be
higher
than
normal,
potentially
causing
increased
supply
in
the
market
due
to
selling
activity.
Redemptions
by
large
shareholders
may
have
a
negative
impact
on
the
Fund’s
liquidity.
Market
and
Credit
Risks
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Fund
trades
financial
instruments
and
enters
into
financial
transactions
where
risk
of
potential
loss
exists
due
to
changes
in
the
market
(market
risk).
The
value
of
the
securities
in
which
the
Fund
invests
may
go
up
or
down
in
response
to
the
prospects
of
individual
companies,
particular
sectors
or
governments
and/or
general
economic
conditions
throughout
the
world
due
to
increasingly
interconnected
global
economies
and
financial
markets.
Events
such
as
war,
acts
of
terrorism,
social
unrest,
natural
disasters,
the
spread
of
infectious
illness
or
other
public
health
threats
could
also
significantly
impact
the
Fund
and
its
investments.
Additionally,
the
Fund
may
also
be
exposed
to
credit
risk
in
the
event
that
an
issuer
or
guarantor
fails
to
perform
or
that
an
institution
or
entity
with
which
the
Fund
has
unsettled
or
open
transactions
defaults.
