Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The performance of global fixed income markets was largely influenced by central bank monetary policy, interest rate volatility, inflation and other macroeconomic data. When the reporting period began in September 2023, many emerging markets central banks had already begun to cut interest rates, while the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) appeared to have reached the peak of its interest rate hiking regime. As the months progressed, bond yields fluctuated, though generally drifted down, amid shifting market sentiment about the size and timing of potential Fed easing.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The performance of U.S. fixed income markets was broadly influenced by Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy, interest rate volatility, inflation and other macroeconomic data. When the reporting period began in September 2023, the Fed appeared to have reached the peak of its interest rate hiking regime. As U.S. economic growth remained resilient and inflationary pressures receded in the months that followed, bond yields fluctuated, though generally drifted down, amid shifting market sentiment about the size and timing of potential Fed easing.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Falling interest rates and expectations around Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy had the greatest impact on preferred stocks and hybrid securities. As inflation pressures receded, the Fed hinted it might begin easing. Markets priced in 100 basis points of cuts by year end 2024, a potential positive for the preferreds market. Bond yields declined, with credit spreads tightening across the $1,000 par over-the-counter and $25 par exchange traded markets, narrowing more than investment grade and high yield corporate bond spreads.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The performance of U.S. fixed income markets was broadly influenced by Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy, interest rate volatility, inflation and other macroeconomic data. When the reporting period began in September 2023, the Fed appeared to have reached the peak of its interest rate hiking regime. As U.S. economic growth remained resilient and inflationary pressures receded in the months that followed, bond yields fluctuated, though generally drifted down, amid shifting market sentiment about the size and timing of potential Fed easing.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The European equity markets experienced volatility driven largely by prolonged higher interest rates and concerns around a weakening economy in the region but performed strongly overall, supported by persistent yet falling inflation that, in turn, fueled expectations of interest rate cuts by the European Central Bank and Bank of England. For the reporting period overall, the U.K. equity market outperformed the equity markets of continental Europe, though both the MSCI Europe ex UK Index and MSCI UK Index generated double-digit positive returns.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad international equity market experienced volatility driven by prolonged higher interest rates, persistent inflation and heightened geopolitical concerns but performed strongly overall as gradually waning inflation levels globally indicated a peaking of central bank tightening cycles and fueled expectations for potential interest rate cuts. Further boosting investor sentiment was generally positive economic data and favorable corporate earnings reports.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The Japanese equity market experienced volatility largely due to fluctuating strength in the yen but performed strongly overall, propelled by expectations of interest rate cuts in the U.S., improved domestic business sentiment, foreign investor inflows, reflation, investor optimism around corporate governance reforms, the launch of the Nippon Individual Savings Account, and the Bank of Japan’s decision to end its long-standing negative rate policy.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad U.S. equity market experienced volatility but performed strongly amid soft landing optimism supported by a gradual cooldown in economic activity even as the labor market remained resilient. Further buoying investor sentiment were disinflation traction themes, an improvement in market breadth, excitement around artificial intelligence capabilities across sectors and a shift in tone from the Federal Reserve that signaled a potential easing of monetary policy.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad global equity market experienced volatility driven by prolonged higher interest rates, persistent inflation and heightened geopolitical concerns but performed strongly overall as gradually waning inflation levels globally indicated a peaking of central bank tightening cycles and fueled expectations for potential interest rate cuts in several developed markets, with the exception of Japan. Further boosting investor sentiment was generally positive economic data and favorable corporate earnings reports.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Performance of clean energy-related equities was positive but challenged, having experienced an outsized valuation correction despite growing EBITDA, robust government and corporate support for cleaner energy and meaningfully more power demand amid the rise of artificial intelligence/data centers and reshoring trends. Toward the end of the reporting period, clean energy infrastructure stock performance improved on the back of a strong earnings cycle coupled with increased clarity on when the U.S. Federal Reserve might start cutting interest rates.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad U.S. equity market experienced volatility but performed strongly amid soft landing optimism supported by a gradual cooldown in economic activity even as the labor market remained resilient. Further buoying investor sentiment were disinflation traction themes, an improvement in market breadth, excitement around artificial intelligence capabilities across sectors and a shift in tone from the Federal Reserve that signaled a potential easing of monetary policy.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Global equities broadly experienced volatility driven by prolonged higher interest rates, persistent inflation and geopolitical concerns, but performed strongly overall as waning inflation levels globally suggested the peaking of central bank tightening cycles and potential interest rate cuts in several developed markets. Further boosting investor sentiment was generally positive economic data, favorable corporate earnings reports and a strong rally, especially among technology stocks, fueled by continued enthusiasm around artificial intelligence (AI).

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]        

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad U.S. equity market experienced volatility but performed strongly amid soft landing optimism supported by a gradual cooldown in economic activity even as the labor market remained resilient. Further buoying investor sentiment were disinflation traction themes, an improvement in market breadth, excitement around artificial intelligence capabilities across sectors and a shift in tone from the Federal Reserve that signaled a potential easing of monetary policy.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

North American midstream equities performed well, underpinned by a supportive production backdrop and an ongoing focus from company management teams on maximizing returns on invested capital and shareholder returns. Within the sector, performance was mixed. For example, during the first quarter of 2024, Master Limited Partnerships (MLPs) strongly outperformed energy infrastructure common stocks. However, that reversed in July and August 2024 when energy infrastructure common stocks materially outperformed MLPs.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Global equities broadly experienced volatility driven by prolonged higher interest rates, persistent inflation and geopolitical concerns but performed strongly overall as waning inflation globally suggested the peaking of central bank tightening cycles and potential interest rate cuts. Growth-oriented equities generally lagged other market segments, as interest rates remained elevated. Consumer-related sectors performed well but were under pressure, as price stresses led consumers to become more careful and measured in their spending.

Global equities broadly experienced volatility driven by prolonged higher interest rates, persistent inflation and geopolitical concerns but performed strongly overall as waning inflation globally suggested the peaking of central bank tightening cycles and potential interest rate cuts. Growth-oriented equities generally lagged other market segments, as interest rates remained elevated. Within health care, gains were concentrated among a select few names, such as large pharmaceutical companies with exposure to the latest generation of anti-obesity drugs.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad global equity market performed strongly as waning inflation suggested the peaking of central bank tightening cycles and potential interest rate cuts. However, persistent inflation and prolonged higher interest rates during the reporting period dampened the performance of long duration assets, including stocks in the environmental impact equity universe. Elevated inflation also pressured consumer demand for green premium products, while a pause in demand growth weighed on renewable energy companies.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Real estate and infrastructure securities broadly experienced volatility driven by prolonged higher interest rates and persistent inflation but performed strongly overall as waning inflation globally suggested the peaking of central bank tightening cycles and potential rate cuts. During the first half of the reporting period, concerns about refinancing risks and decreasing property valuations weighed on performance overall. In the second half, the possibility of rate cuts boosted investor sentiment, as falling yields seemed likely to bolster valuations.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Global equities broadly experienced volatility driven by prolonged higher interest rates and persistent inflation but performed strongly overall as waning inflation globally suggested the peaking of central bank tightening cycles. Further buoying investor sentiment were disinflation traction themes, an improvement in market breadth, excitement about artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities and a shift in tone from the Federal Reserve. Enthusiasm around mega-cap technology companies was a generally constant theme, fueling equity market gains.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]    

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The broad U.S. equity market experienced volatility but performed strongly amid soft landing optimism supported by a gradual cooldown in economic activity even as the labor market remained resilient. Further buoying investor sentiment were disinflation traction themes, an improvement in market breadth, excitement around artificial intelligence capabilities across sectors and a shift in tone from the Federal Reserve that signaled a potential easing of monetary policy.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]          

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

Municipal bond market performance was broadly influenced by Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy, interest rate volatility and supply/demand dynamics. When the reporting period began in September 2023, the Fed appeared to have reached the peak of its interest rate hiking regime. In the months that followed, municipal yields generally trended down, as inflationary pressures receded and policymakers signaled they could soon begin cutting interest rates. New issue supply increased at a record-setting pace. Demand fluctuated but was generally positive.

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The performance of the municipal bond market was broadly influenced by expectations for Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy and supply/demand dynamics. After two rounds of relatively benign inflation data, Fed officials suggested price pressures would continue to trend toward their 2% target. Maximum employment, the other side of the Fed’s dual mandate, was also in focus, as the unemployment rate increased. Municipal yields fell, as the market anticipated the start of a Fed easing cycle. New issuance was at a record pace, and demand was positive.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block]  

How did the Fund perform and what affected its performance?

The performance of the municipal bond market was broadly influenced by expectations for Federal Reserve (Fed) monetary policy and supply/demand dynamics. After two rounds of relatively benign inflation data, Fed officials suggested price pressures would continue to trend toward their 2% target. Maximum employment, the other side of the Fed’s dual mandate, was also in focus, as the unemployment rate increased. Municipal yields fell, as the market anticipated the start of a Fed easing cycle. New issuance was at a record pace, and demand was positive.
