Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] What affected the Fund's performance this period?
 
Emerging-markets local-currency debt modestly declined in 2024, significantly hampered by a broadly stronger U.S. dollar and differences in the interest-rates policies between the U.S. and some emerging markets.
Against this backdrop, country selection notably detracted from the fund's performance versus the J.P. Morgan GBI-EM Global Diversified Index for the year, with an underweight in the currency of Thailand hurting most, given the strong performance of this market.
An overweight in Brazil and an underweight in China also heavily weighed on relative performance, although security selection in these markets somewhat offset this negative.
Conversely, security selection overall meaningfully contributed to the fund's relative result, especially our choices in Egypt.
Also helping versus the benchmark was security selection and an overweight in Turkey, which outperformed.
Lastly, the fund's cash position was a notable relative detractor for the year against a rising market backdrop.

Factors Affecting Performance [Text Block] What affected the Fund's performance this period?
 
Emerging-markets debt achieved a strong gain in 2024, significantly influenced by economic conditions in the U.S., investors' outlook for the magnitude and timing of U.S. Federal Reserve interest-rate cuts, and geopolitical uncertainty. Notably, market returns were hampered by a broadly stronger U.S. dollar.
Against this backdrop, security selection modestly contributed to the fund's performance versus the J.P. Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global Diversified Index for the year, with choices in Mexico and Chile helping most, driven by the fund's holdings in corporate bonds.
Security selection and an overweight in Sri Lanka was another noteworthy relative contributor. Sri Lanka bonds rose late in the year on investor optimism following the country's debt restructuring and Moody's upgrading of Sri Lanka's long-term foreign currency issuer rating. Security selection and an underweight in Peru also helped.
Country positioning significantly contributed versus the benchmark, especially an underweight in the Philippines, a market that underperformed the benchmark in 2024.
Conversely, a non-benchmark stake in U.S. Treasurys was the largest detractor versus the benchmark. We use Treasurys from time to time as a risk-management tool and a means to increase the fund's duration, a measure of sensitivity to interest rates. However, the fund's position returned about -3% in 2024.
Security selection in Ukraine detracted, overcoming the contribution of our overweight in this outperforming market. The fund's modest cash position also weighed on relative performance, given the rising market backdrop.
