Organization
Russell
Investment
Funds
(the
“Investment
Company”
or
“RIF”)
is
a
series
investment
company
with
nine
different
investment
portfolios
referred
to
as
funds
(each
a
“Fund”
and
collectively
the
“Funds”).
This
Quarterly
Report
reports
on
five
of
these
Funds.
The
Investment
Company
provides
the
investment
base
for
one
or
more
variable
insurance
products
issued
by
one
or
more
insurance
companies.
These
Funds
are
offered
at
net
asset
value
(“NAV”)
to
qualified
insurance
company
separate
accounts
offering
variable
insurance
products.
The
Investment
Company
is
registered
under
the
Investment
Company
Act
of
1940,
as
amended
(“Investment
Company
Act”),
as
an
open-end
management
investment
company.
It
is
organized
and
operated
as
a
Massachusetts
business
trust
under
a
Second
Amended
and
Restated
Master
Trust
Agreement
dated
March
1,
2018,
as
amended
(“Master
Trust
Agreement”),
and
the
provisions
of
Massachusetts
law
governing
the
operation
of
a
Massachusetts
business
trust.
The
Investment
Company’s
Master
Trust
Agreement
permits
the
Board
of
Trustees
(the
“Board”)
to
issue
an
unlimited
number
of
shares
of
beneficial
interest.
Each
of
the
Funds
is
diversified.
Under
the
Investment
Company
Act,
a
diversified
company
is
defined
as
a
management
company
which
meets
the
following
requirements:
at
least
75%
of
the
value
of
its
total
assets
is
represented
by
cash
and
cash
equivalents
(including
receivables),
government
securities,
securities
of
other
investment
companies,
and
other
securities
for
the
purposes
of
this
calculation
limited
in
respect
of
any
one
issuer
to
an
amount
not
greater
in
value
than
five
percent
of
the
value
of
the
total
assets
of
such
management
company
and
to
not
more
than
10%
of
the
outstanding
voting
securities
of
such
issuer.
Significant
Accounting
Policies
The
following
is
a
summary
of
the
significant
accounting
policies
consistently
followed
by
the
Funds
in
the
preparation
of
this
Quarterly
Report.
These
policies
are
in
conformity
with
U.S.
generally
accepted
accounting
principles
(“U.S.
GAAP”),
which
require
the
use
of
management
estimates
and
assumptions
at
the
date
of
the
Quarterly
Report.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
The
Funds
are
considered
investment
companies
under
U.S.
GAAP
and
follow
the
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
applicable
to
investment
companies.
Security
Valuation
The
Funds
value
portfolio
securities
according
to
Board-approved
securities
valuation
procedures
which
include
market
and
fair
value
procedures.
The
Board
has
delegated
the
responsibility
for
administration
of
the
securities
valuation
procedures
to
Russell
Investments
Fund
Services,
LLC
("RIFUS").
U.S.
GAAP
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
that
a
Fund
would
receive
to
sell
an
asset
or
pay
to
transfer
a
liability
in
an
orderly
transaction
between
market
participants
at
the
measurement
date.
It
establishes
a
fair
value
hierarchy
that
prioritizes
inputs
to
valuation
methods
and
requires
a
separate
disclosure
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy
for
each
major
category
of
assets
and
liabilities,
that
segregates
fair
value
measurements
into
levels
(Level
1,
2,
and
3).
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities.
Levels
1,
2
and
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy
are
defined
as
follows:
Level
1
Quoted
prices
(unadjusted)
in
active
markets
or
exchanges
for
identical
assets
and
liabilities.
Level
2
Inputs
other
than
quoted
prices
included
within
Level
1
that
are
observable,
which
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
quoted
prices
for
similar
assets
or
liabilities
in
markets
that
are
active,
quoted
prices
for
identical
or
similar
assets
or
liabilities
in
markets
that
are
not
active,
and
inputs
such
as
interest
rates,
yield
curves,
implied
volatilities,
credit
spreads
or
other
market
corroborated
inputs.
Level
3
Significant
unobservable
inputs
based
on
the
best
information
available
in
the
circumstances,
to
the
extent
observable
inputs
are
not
available,
which
may
include
assumptions
made
by
RIFUS,
acting
at
the
discretion
of
the
Board,
that
are
used
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
investments.
The
availability
of
observable
inputs
can
vary
from
security
to
security
and
is
affected
by
a
wide
variety
of
factors,
including,
for
example,
the
type
of
security,
whether
the
security
is
new
and
not
yet
established
in
the
marketplace,
the
liquidity
of
markets,
and
other
characteristics
particular
to
the
security.
To
the
extent
that
valuation
is
based
on
models
or
inputs
that
are
less
observable
or
unobservable
in
the
market,
the
determination
of
fair
value
requires
more
judgement.
Accordingly,
the
degree
of
judgement
exercised
in
determining
fair
value
is
greatest
for
instruments
categorized
in
Level
3.
The
inputs
or
methodology
used
for
valuing
securities
are
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risk
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities.
The
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value
may
fall
into
different
levels
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
such
cases,
for
disclosure
purposes,
the
level
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy
within
which
the
fair
value
measurement
falls
is
determined
based
on
the
lowest
level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
measurement
in
its
entirety.

The
valuation
techniques
and
significant
inputs
used
in
determining
the
fair
market
values
of
financial
instruments
categorized
as
Level
1
and
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy
are
as
follows:
Equity
securities,
including
common
and
preferred
stock,
short
securities,
ETFs
and
restricted
securities
that
are
traded
on
a
national
securities
exchange
(or
reported
on
the
NASDAQ
national
market),
are
stated
at
the
last
reported
sales
price
on
the
day
of
valuation
or
official
closing
price,
as
applicable.
To
the
extent
these
securities
are
actively
traded,
and
valuation
adjustments
are
not
applied,
they
are
categorized
as
Level
1
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Preferred
stock
and
other
equities
traded
on
inactive
markets
or
valued
by
reference
to
similar
instruments
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Certain
foreign
equity
securities
may
be
fair
valued
using
a
pricing
service
that
considers
the
correlation
of
the
trading
patterns
of
the
foreign
security
to
the
intraday
trading
in
the
U.S.
markets
for
investments
such
as
American
Depositary
Receipts,
financial
futures,
exchange-traded
funds,
and
the
movement
of
certain
indexes
of
securities,
based
on
the
statistical
analysis
of
historical
relationships.
Foreign
equity
securities
prices
as
described
above
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Fixed
income
securities
including
corporate,
convertible,
U.S.
government
agency,
municipal
bonds
and
notes,
U.S.
treasury
obligations,
sovereign
issues,
bank
loans,
bank
notes
and
non-U.S.
bonds
are
normally
valued
by
pricing
service
providers
that
use
broker
dealer
quotations
or
valuation
estimates
from
their
internal
pricing
models.
The
pricing
service
providers’
internal
models
use
inputs
that
are
observable
such
as
issuer
details,
interest
rates,
yield
curves,
prepayment
speeds,
credit
risks/spreads
and
default
rates.
Such
fixed
income
securities
that
use
pricing
service
internal
models
as
described
above
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Such
fixed
income
securities
that
use
broker
dealer
quotations
are
categorized
as
Level
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Fixed
income
securities
purchased
on
a
delayed-delivery
basis
and
marked-to-market
daily
until
settlement
at
the
forward
settlement
date
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Mortgage
and
asset-backed
securities
are
usually
issued
as
separate
tranches,
or
classes,
of
securities
within
each
deal.
These
securities
are
also
normally
valued
by
pricing
service
providers
that
use
broker
dealer
quotations
or
valuation
estimates
from
their
internal
pricing
models.
The
pricing
models
for
these
securities
usually
consider
tranche-level
attributes,
including
estimated
cash
flows
of
each
tranche,
market-based
yield
spreads
for
each
tranche,
and
current
market
data,
as
well
as
incorporate
deal
collateral
performance,
as
available.
Mortgage
and
asset-backed
securities
that
use
these
and
similar
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
as
described
above
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Investments
in
investment
funds
that
are
not
traded
on
a
national
securities
exchange
(or
reported
on
the
NASDAQ
national
market)
will
be
valued
based
upon
the
NAV
of
such
investments.
The
Funds
have
adopted
the
authoritative
guidance
under
U.S.
GAAP
for
estimating
the
fair
value
of
investments
in
funds
that
have
calculated
NAV
per
share
in
accordance
with
the
specialized
accounting
guidance
for
investment
companies.
Accordingly,
the
Funds
estimate
the
fair
value
of
an
investment
in
a
fund
using
the
NAV
per
share
without
further
adjustment
as
a
practical
expedient,
if
the
NAV
per
share
of
the
investment
is
determined
in
accordance
with
the
specialized
accounting
guidance
for
investment
companies
as
of
the
reporting
entity’s
measurement
date.
Short-term
investments
having
a
maturity
of
60
days
or
less
are
generally
valued
at
amortized
cost,
which
approximates
fair
market
value.
These
investments
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Derivative
instruments
are
instruments
such
as
foreign
currency
contracts,
futures
contracts,
options
contracts,
or
swap
agreements
that
derive
their
value
from
underlying
asset
prices,
indices,
reference
rates,
and
other
inputs
or
a
combination
of
these
factors.
Derivatives
may
be
classified
into
two
groups
depending
upon
the
way
that
they
are
traded:
privately
traded
over-the-counter
(“OTC”)
derivatives
that
do
not
go
through
an
exchange
or
intermediary
and
exchange-traded
derivatives
that
are
traded
through
specialized
derivatives
exchanges
or
other
regulated
exchanges.
OTC
derivatives
are
normally
valued
on
the
basis
of
broker
dealer
quotations
or
pricing
service
providers.
Depending
on
the
product
and
the
terms
of
the
transaction,
the
value
of
the
derivative
instrument
can
be
estimated
by
a
pricing
service
provider
using
a
series
of
techniques,
including
simulation
pricing
models.
The
pricing
models
use
inputs
that
are
observed
from
actively
quoted
markets
such
as
issuer
details,
indices,
spreads,
interest
rates,
yield
curves,
dividends
and
exchange
rates.
OTC
derivatives
that
use
these
and
similar
valuation
techniques
and
inputs
as
described
above
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy,
with
the
exception
of
foreign
currency
spot
contracts
which
are
categorized
as
Level
1
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
OTC
derivatives
that
use
broker
dealer
quotations
are
categorized
as
level
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Exchange-traded
derivatives
are
valued
based
on
the
last
reported
sales
price
on
the
day
of
valuation
and
are
categorized
as
Level
1
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Centrally
cleared
swaps
listed
or
traded
on
a
multilateral
or
trade
facility
platform,
such
as
a
registered
exchange,
are
valued
at
the
daily
settlement
price
determined
by
the
respective
exchange.
For
centrally
cleared
credit
default
swaps,

facility
requires
its
members
to
provide
actionable
levels
across
complete
term
structures.
These
levels
along
with
external
third-
party
prices
are
used
to
produce
daily
settlement
prices.
These
securities
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Centrally
cleared
interest
rate
swaps
are
valued
using
a
pricing
model
that
references
the
underlying
rates
including
the
Overnight
Index
Swap
("OIS")
rate
and
London
Interbank
Offered
Rate
(“LIBOR”)
forward
rate
to
produce
the
daily
settlement
price.
These
securities
are
categorized
as
Level
2
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Events
or
circumstances
affecting
the
values
of
Fund
securities
that
occur
between
the
closing
of
the
principal
markets
on
which
they
trade
and
the
time
the
NAV
of
Fund
shares
is
determined
may
be
reflected
in
the
calculation
of
NAV
for
each
applicable
Fund
when
the
Fund
deems
that
the
particular
event
or
circumstance
would
materially
affect
such
Fund’s
NAV.
Funds
that
invest
primarily
in
frequently
traded
exchange-listed
securities
will
use
fair
value
pricing
in
limited
circumstances
since
reliable
market
quotations
will
often
be
readily
available.
Funds
that
invest
in
foreign
securities
use
fair
value
pricing
daily
as
events
may
occur
between
the
close
of
foreign
markets
and
the
time
of
pricing.
Although
there
are
observable
inputs
assigned
on
a
security
level,
prices
are
derived
from
factors
using
proprietary
models
or
matrix
pricing.
For
this
reason,
fair
value
factors
will
cause
movement
between
Levels
1
and
2.
Significant
events
that
could
trigger
fair
value
pricing
of
one
or
more
securities
include:
a
company
development
such
as
a
material
business
development;
a
natural
disaster,
a
public
health
emergency
affecting
one
or
more
countries
in
the
global
economy
(including
an
emergency
which
results
in
the
closure
of
financial
markets)
or
emergency
situation;
or
an
armed
conflict.
The
NAV
of
a
Fund’s
portfolio
that
includes
foreign
securities
may
change
on
days
when
shareholders
will
not
be
able
to
purchase
or
redeem
Fund
shares,
since
foreign
securities
can
trade
on
non-business
days.
For
movements
between
the
levels
within
the
fair
value
hierarchy,
the
Funds
have
adopted
a
policy
of
recognizing
the
transfers
as
of
year-end.
There
were
no
transfers
between
Levels
1,
2
and
3
for
the
period
ended
March
31,
2020.
Level
3
Fair
Value
Investments
The
valuation
techniques
and
significant
inputs
used
in
determining
the
fair
values
of
financial
instruments
classified
as
Level
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy
are
as
follows:
Securities
and
other
assets
for
which
market
quotes
are
not
readily
available,
or
are
not
reliable,
are
valued
at
fair
value
as
determined
in
good
faith
by
RIFUS
and
are
categorized
as
Level
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Market
quotes
are
considered
not
readily
available
in
circumstances
where
there
is
an
absence
of
current
or
reliable
market-based
data
(e.g.,
trade
information
or
broker
quotes).
When
RIFUS
applies
fair
valuation
methods
that
use
significant
unobservable
inputs
to
determine
a
Fund’s
NAV,
securities
will
not
be
priced
on
the
basis
of
quotes
from
the
primary
market
in
which
they
are
traded,
but
instead
may
be
priced
by
another
method
that
RIFUS
believes
accurately
reflects
fair
value
and
will
be
categorized
as
Level
3
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Fair
value
pricing
may
require
subjective
determinations
about
the
value
of
a
security.
While
the
securities
valuation
procedures
are
intended
to
result
in
a
calculation
of
a
Fund’s
NAV
that
fairly
reflects
security
values
as
of
the
time
of
pricing,
the
process
cannot
guarantee
that
fair
values
determined
by
RIFUS
would
accurately
reflect
the
price
that
a
Fund
could
obtain
for
a
security
if
it
were
to
dispose
of
that
security
as
of
the
time
of
pricing
(for
instance,
in
a
forced
or
distressed
sale).
The
prices
used
by
a
Fund
may
differ
from
the
value
that
would
be
realized
if
the
security
was
sold.
RIFUS
employs
third-party
pricing
vendors
to
provide
fair
value
measurements.
RIFUS
oversees
third-party
pricing
service
providers
in
order
to
support
the
valuation
process
throughout
the
year.
The
significant
unobservable
inputs
used
in
fair
value
measurement
of
certain
of
the
Funds'
private
equity
securities
include
market
data
of
comparable
public
companies,
discount
rates,
EBITDA
multiples,
and
future
projected
cash
flows
for
the
portfolio
company.
These
inputs
are
utilized
in
valuation
models
that
are
based
on
market
analysis
and
discounted
cash
flow
methodologies.
Significant
increases
or
decreases
in
the
unobservable
inputs
would
have
a
direct
and
proportional
impact
to
fair
value.
The
significant
unobservable
input
used
in
the
fair
value
measurement
of
certain
Funds’
debt
securities
is
the
yield
to
worst
ratio.
Significant
increases
(decreases)
in
the
yield
to
worst
ratio
would
result
in
a
lower
(higher)
fair
value
measurement.
These
significant
unobservable
inputs
are
further
disclosed
in
the
Presentation
of
Portfolio
Holdings
for
each
respective
Fund
as
applicable.
If
third-party
evaluated
vendor
pricing
is
neither
available
nor
deemed
to
be
indicative
of
fair
value,
RIFUS
may
elect
to
obtain
indicative
market
quotations
(“broker
quotes”)
directly
from
the
broker
or
passed
through
from
a
third-party
vendor.
In
the
event
that
the
source
of
fair
value
is
from
a
single
source
broker
quote,
these
securities
are
classified
as
Level
3
per
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
Broker
quotes
are
typically
received
from
established
market
participants.
Although
independently
received
on
a
daily

to
Quarterly
Report,

to
Quarterly
Report
basis,
RIFUS
does
not
have
the
transparency
to
view
the
underlying
inputs
which
support
the
broker
quotes.
Significant
changes
in
the
broker
quote
would
have
direct
and
proportional
changes
in
the
fair
value
of
the
security.
There
is
a
third-party
pricing
exception
to
the
quantitative
disclosure
requirement
when
prices
are
not
determined
by
the
reporting
entity.
RIFUS
is
exercising
this
exception
and
has
made
a
reasonable
attempt
to
obtain
quantitative
information
from
the
third-party
pricing
vendors
regarding
the
unobservable
inputs
used.
For
fair
valuations
using
significant
unobservable
inputs,
U.S.
GAAP
requires
a
reconciliation
of
the
beginning
to
ending
balances
for
reported
fair
values
that
present
changes
attributable
to
total
realized
and
unrealized
gains
or
losses,
purchases
and
sales,
and
transfers
in/out
of
the
Level
3
category
during
the
period.
Additionally,
U.S.
GAAP
requires
quantitative
information
regarding
the
significant
unobservable
inputs
used
in
the
determination
of
fair
value
of
assets
categorized
as
Level
3
in
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
accordance
with
the
requirements
of
U.S.
GAAP,
a
fair
value
hierarchy,
a
Level
3
reconciliation
and
an
additional
disclosure
about
fair
value
measurements,
if
any,
has
been
included
in
the
Presentation
of

for
each

Investment
Income
Dividend
income
is

net
of
applicable
withholding
taxes
on
the
ex-dividend
date,
except
that
certain
dividends
from
foreign
securities
are
recorded
as
soon
as
the
Funds
are
informed
of
the
dividend,
subsequent
to
the
ex-dividend
date.
To
the
extent
the
dividend
represents
a
return
of
capital
or
capital
gain
for
tax
purposes,
reclassifications
are
made
which
may
be
based
on

Interest
income
is
recorded
daily
on
the
accrual
basis.
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
classifies
gains
and
losses
realized
on
prepayments
received
on
mortgage-backed
securities
as
an
adjustment
to
interest
income.
All
premiums
and
discounts,
including
original

are
amortized/
accreted
using
the
effective

Debt
obligation
securities
may
be
placed
in
a
non-accrual

respective
trade
dates
of
such
transactions.
Net
realized
gains
or
losses
from
foreign
currency-related
transactions
arise
from:
sales
and
maturities
of
short-term
securities;
sales
of
foreign
currencies;
currency
gains
or
losses
realized
between
the
trade
and
settlement
dates
on
securities
transactions;
the
difference
between
the
amounts
of
dividends,
interest,
and
foreign
withholding
taxes
recorded
on
the
Funds’
books
and
the
U.S.
dollar
equivalent
of
the
amounts
actually
received
or
paid.
Net
unrealized
gains
or
losses
from
foreign
currency-related
transactions
arise
from
changes
in
the
value
of
assets
and
liabilities,
other
than
investments
in
securities,
as
a
result
of
changes
in
the
exchange
rates.
The
Funds
do
not
isolate
that
portion
of
the
results
of
operations
of
the
Funds
that
arises
as
a
result
of
changes
in
exchange
rates
from
that
portion
that
arises
from
changes
in
market
prices
of
investments
during
the
year.
Such
fluctuations
are
included
with
the
net
realized
and
unrealized
gain
or
loss
from
investments.
However,
for
federal
income
tax
purposes,
the
Funds
do
isolate
the
effects
of
changes
in
foreign
exchange
rates
from
the
fluctuations
arising
from
changes
in
market
prices
for
realized
gain
(or
loss)
on
debt
obligations.
Derivatives
The
Funds
may
invest
in
derivatives.
Derivatives
are
instruments
or
agreements
whose
value
is
derived
from
an
underlying
security
or
index.
They
include
options,
futures,
swaps
and
forwards.
These
instruments
offer
unique
characteristics
and
risks
that
facilitate
the
Funds’
investment
strategies.
The
Funds
typically
use
derivatives
in
three
ways:
exposing
cash
to
markets,
hedging
and
return
enhancement.
In
addition,
certain
Funds
may
enter
into
foreign
exchange
contracts
for
trade
settlement
purposes.
The
Funds
may
pursue
their
strategy
of
being
fully
invested
by
exposing
cash
to
the
performance
of
appropriate
markets
by
purchasing
securities
and/or
derivatives.
This
is
intended
to
cause
the
Funds
to
perform
as
though
cash
were
actually
invested
in
those
markets.
Hedging
may
be
used
by
certain
Funds
to
limit
or
control
risks,
such
as
adverse
movements
in
exchange
rates
and
interest
rates.
Return
enhancement
can
be
accomplished
through
the
use
of
derivatives
in
a
Fund,
including
using
derivatives
as
a
substitute
for

holding
physical
securities,
and
using
them
to
express
various
macro
views
(e.g.,
interest
rate
movements,
currency
movements,
and
macro
credit
strategies).
By
purchasing
certain
instruments,
the
Funds
may
more
effectively
achieve
the
desired
portfolio
characteristics
that
assist
them
in
meeting
their
investment
objectives.
Depending
on
how
the
derivatives
are
structured
and
utilized,
the
risks
associated
with
them
may
vary
widely.
These
risks
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
market
risk,
liquidity
risk,
leveraging
risk,
counterparty
risk,
basis
risk,
reinvestment
risk,
political
risk,
prepayment
risk,
extension
risk,
valuation
risk
and
credit
risk.
Futures,
certain
options
and
cleared
swaps
are
traded
or
cleared
on
an
exchange
or
central
exchange
clearing
house.
Exchange-
traded
or
exchange-cleared
transactions
generally
present
less
counterparty
risk
to
a
Fund.
The
exchange’s
clearing
house
stands
between
the
Fund
and
the
broker
to
the
contract
and
therefore,
credit
risk
is
generally
limited
to
the
failure
of
the
clearing
house
and
the
clearing
member.
Cleared
swap
contracts
are
subject
to
clearing
house
rules,
including
initial
and
variation
margin
requirement,
daily
settlement
of
obligations
and
the
clearing
house
guarantee
of
payments
to
the
broker.
There
is,
however,
still
counterparty
risk
due
to
the
insolvency
of
the
broker
with
respect
to
any
margin
held
in
the
brokers’
customer
accounts.
While
clearing
members
are
required
to
segregate
customer
assets
from
their
own
assets,
in
the
event
of
insolvency,
there
may
be
a
shortfall
in
the
amount
of
margin
held
by
the
broker
for
its
clients.
Collateral
and
margin
requirements
for
exchange-traded
or
exchange-cleared
derivatives
are
established
through
regulation,
as
well
as
set
by
the
broker
or
applicable
clearing
house.
In
November
2019,
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
("SEC")
proposed
new
regulations
applicable
to
a
mutual
fund's
use
of
derivatives.
If
adopted
as
proposed,
these
regulations
could
potentially
limit
or
impact
a
Fund's
ability
to
invest
in
derivatives
and
negatively
affect
the
Fund's
performance
and
ability
to
pursue
its
stated
investment
objective.
Foreign
Currency
Exchange
Contracts
Certain
Funds
may
enter
into
foreign
currency
exchange
spot
contracts
and
forward
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
(“FX
contracts”).
From
time
to
time,
certain
Funds
may
enter
into
FX
contracts
to
hedge
certain
foreign
currency-denominated
assets.
FX
contracts
are
recorded
at
fair
value.
Certain
risks
may
arise
upon
entering
into
these
FX
contracts
from
the
potential
inability
of
counterparties
to
meet
the
terms
of
their
FX
contracts
and
are
generally
limited
to
the
amount
of
unrealized
gain
on
the
FX
contracts.
For
the
period
ended
March
31,
2020,
the
following
Funds
entered
into
foreign
currency
exchange
contracts
primarily
for
the
strategies

their
derivative
activity
during
the
period
ended
March
31,
2020.
As
of
March
31,
2020,
the
Funds
had
cash
collateral
balances
in
connection
with
foreign
currency
contracts
purchased/sold
as
follows:
Options
Certain
Funds
may
purchase
and
sell
(write)
call
and
put
options
on
securities
and
securities
indices.
Such
options
are
traded
on
a
national
securities
exchange
or
in
an
OTC
market.
The
Funds
may
also
purchase
and
sell
(write)
call
and
put
options
on
foreign
currencies.
When
a
Fund
writes
a
covered
call
or
a
put
option,
an
amount
equal
to
the
premium
received
by
the
Fund
is
included
in
the
Fund’s
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities
as
an
asset
and
as
an
equivalent
liability.
The
amount
of
the
liability
is
subsequently
marked-
to-market
to
reflect
the
current
fair
value
of
the
option
written.
The
Fund
receives
a
premium
on
the
sale
of
a
call
option
but
gives
up
the
opportunity
to
profit
from
any
increase
in
the
value
of
the
underlying
instrument
above
the
exercise
price
of
the
option,
and
when
the
Fund
writes
a
put
option
it
is
exposed
to
a
decline
in
the
price
of
the
underlying
instrument.

When
a
Fund
sells
an
uncovered
call
option,
it
does
not
simultaneously
have
a
long
position
in
the
underlying
security.
When
a
Fund
sells
an
uncovered
put
option,
it
does
not
simultaneously
have
a
short
position
in
the
underlying
security.
Uncovered
options
are
riskier
than
covered
options
because
there
is
no
underlying
security
held
by
the
Fund
that
can
act
as
a
partial
hedge.
Whether
an
option
which
the
Fund
has
written
expires
on
its
stipulated
expiration
date
or
the
Fund
enters
into
a
closing
purchase
transaction,
the
Fund
realizes
a
gain
(or
loss,
if
the
cost
of
a
closing
purchase
transaction
exceeds
the
premium
received
when
the
option
was
sold)
without
regard
to
any
unrealized
gain
or
loss
on
the
underlying
security,
and
the
liability
related
to
such
option
is
extinguished.
If
a
call
option
which
the
Fund
has
written
is
exercised,
the
Fund
realizes
a
capital
gain
or
loss
from
the
sale
of
the
underlying
security,
and
the
proceeds
from
such
sale
are
increased
by
the
premium
originally
received.
When
a
put
option
which
a
Fund
has
written
is
exercised,
the
amount
of
the
premium
originally
received
will
reduce
the
cost
of
the
security
which
a
Fund
purchases
upon
exercise
of
the
option.
The
Funds’
use
of
written
options
involves,
to
varying
degrees,
elements
of
market
risk
in
excess
of
the
amount
recognized
in
the
Statements
of
Assets
and
Liabilities.
The
face
or
contract
amounts
of
these
instruments
reflect
the
extent
of
the
Funds’
exposure
to
market
risk.
The
risks
may
be
caused
by
an
imperfect
correlation
between
movements
in
the
price
of
the
instrument
and
the
price
of
the
underlying
securities
and
interest
rates.
Certain
Funds
may
enter
into
a
swaption
(an
option
on
a
swap).
In
a
swaption,
in
exchange
for
an
option,
the
buyer
gains
the
right
but
not
the
obligation
to
enter
into
a
specified
swap
agreement
with
the
issuer
on
a
specified
future
date.
The
writer
of
the
contract
receives
the
premium
and
bears
the
risk
of
unfavorable
changes
in
the
preset
rate
on
the
underlying
swap.
For
the
period
ended
March
31,
2020,
the
following
Funds
purchased
or
sold
options
primarily
for
the
strategies
listed
below:

of
the
volume
of
their
derivative
activity
during
the
period
ended
March

As
of
March
31,
2020,
the
Funds
had
no
cash
collateral
balances
in
connection
with
options
contracts
purchased/sold.
Futures
Contracts
The
Funds
may
invest
in
futures
contracts
(i.e.,
interest
rate,
foreign
currency
and
index
futures
contracts).
The
face
or
contract
value
of
these
instruments
reflect
the
extent
of
the
Funds’
exposure
to
off
balance
sheet
risk.
The
primary
risks
associated
with
the
use
of
futures
contracts
are
an
imperfect
correlation
between
the
change
in
fair
value
of
the
securities
held
by
the
Funds
and
the
prices
of
futures
contracts,
and
the
possibility
of
an
illiquid
market.
Upon
entering
into
a
futures
contract,
the
Funds
are
required
to
deposit
with
a
broker
an
amount,
termed
the
initial
margin,
which
typically
represents
5%
to
10%
of
the
purchase
price
indicated
in
the
futures
contract.
Payments
to
and
from
the
broker,
known
as
variation
margin,
are
typically
required
to
be
made
on
a
daily
basis
as
the
price
of
the
futures
contract
fluctuates.
Changes
in
initial
settlement
value
are
accounted
for
as
unrealized
appreciation
(depreciation)
until
the
contracts
are
terminated,
at
which
time
realized
gains
and
losses
are
recognized.
For

Swap
Agreements
The
Funds
may
enter
into
swap
agreements,
on
either
an
asset-based
or
liability-based
basis,
depending
on
whether
they
are
hedging
their
assets
or
their
liabilities,
and
will
usually
enter
into
swaps
on
a
net
basis
(i.e.,
the
two
payment
streams
are
netted
out,
with
the
Funds
receiving
or
paying
only
the
net
amount
of
the
two
payments).
When
a
Fund
engages
in
a
swap,
it
exchanges
its
obligations
to
pay
or
rights
to
receive
payments
for
the
obligations
to
pay
or
rights
to
receive
payments
of
another
party
(i.e.,
an
exchange
of
floating
rate
payments
for
fixed
rate
payments).
The
Funds
may
enter
into
several
different
types
of
swap
agreements
including
credit
default,
interest
rate,
total
return
(equity
and/
or
index)
and
currency
swaps.
Credit
default
swaps
are
a
counterparty
agreement
which
allows
the
transfer
of
third-party
credit
risk
(the
possibility
that
an
issuer
will
default
on
its
obligation
by
failing
to
pay
principal
or
interest
in
a
timely
manner)
from
one
party
to
another.
The
lender
faces
the
credit
risk
from
a
third-party
and
the
counterparty
in
the
swap
agrees
to
insure
this
risk
in
exchange
for
regular
periodic
payments.
Interest
rate
swaps
are
a
counterparty
agreement,
can
be
customized
to
meet
each
party’s
needs,
and
involve
the
exchange
of
a
fixed
or
variable
payment
per
period
for
a
payment
that
is
not
fixed.
Total
return
swaps
are
a
counterparty
agreement
where
two
parties
exchange
two
sets
of
cash
flows
on
predetermined
dates
for
an
agreed
upon
amount
of
time.
The
cash
flows
will
typically
be
an
equity
index
value
swapped
with
a
floating
rate
such
as
LIBOR
plus
or
minus
a
pre-defined
spread.
Total
return
swap
agreements
are
a
counterparty
agreement
intended
to
expose
cash
to
markets
or
to
effect
investment
transactions
consistent
with
those
Funds’
investment
objectives
and
strategies.
Currency
swaps
are
a
counterparty
agreement
where
two
parties
exchange
specified
amounts
of
different
currencies
which
are
followed
by
each
paying
the
other
a
series
of
interest
payments
that
are
based
on
the
principal
cash
flow.
At
maturity
the
principal
amounts
are
returned.
The
Funds
generally
expect
to
enter
into
these
transactions
primarily
to
preserve
a
return
or
spread
on
a
particular
investment
or
portion
of
their
portfolios
or
to
protect
against
any
increase
in
the
price
of
securities
they
anticipate
purchasing
at
a
later
date,
or
for
return
enhancement.
Under
most
swap
agreements
entered
into
by
a
Fund,
the
parties'
obligations
are
determined
on
a
"net
basis".
The
net
amount
of
the
excess,
if
any,
of
the
Funds’
obligations
over
their
entitlements
with
respect
to
each
swap
will
be
accrued
on
a
daily
basis
and
an
amount
of
cash
or
liquid
assets
having
an
aggregate
NAV
at
least
equal
to
the
accrued
excess
will
be
segregated.
To
the
extent
that
the
Funds
enter
into
swaps
on
other
than
a
net
basis,
the
amount
maintained
in
a
segregated
account
will
be
the
full
amount
of
the
Funds’
obligations,
if
any,
with
respect
to
such
swaps,
accrued
on
a
daily
basis.
If
there
is
a
default
by
the
other
party
to
such
a
transaction,
the
Funds
will
have
contractual
remedies
pursuant
to
the
agreement
related
to
the
transaction.
A
Fund
may
not
receive
the
expected
amount
under
a
swap
agreement
if
the
other
party
to
the
agreement
defaults
or
becomes
bankrupt.
As
of
March
31,
2010,
the
Funds
had
cash
collateral
balances
in
connection
with
swap
contracts
purchased/sold
as
follows:
Credit
Default
Swaps
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
enter
into
credit
default
swaps.
A
credit
default
swap
can
refer
to
corporate
issues,
government
issues,
asset-backed
securities
or
an
index
of
assets,
each
known
as
the
reference
entity
or
underlying
asset.
The
Fund
may
act
as
either
the
buyer
or
the
seller
of
a
credit
default
swap
involving
one
party
making
a
stream
of
payments
to
another
party
in
exchange
for
the
right
to
receive
a
specified
return
in
the
event
of
a
default
or
other
credit
event.
Depending
upon
the
terms
of
the
contract,
the
credit
default
swap
may
be
closed
via
physical
settlement.
However,
due
to
the
possible
or
potential
instability
in
the
market,
there
is
a
risk
that
the
Fund
may
be
unable
to
deliver
the
underlying
debt
security
to
the
other
party
to
the
agreement.
Additionally,
the
Fund
may
not
receive
the
expected
amount
under
the
swap
agreement
if
the
other
party

the

defaults
or
becomes
bankrupt.
In
an
unhedged
credit
default
swap,
the
Fund
enters
into
a
credit
default
swap
without
owning
the
underlying
asset
or
debt
issued
by
the

Credit
default
swaps
allow
the
Fund
to
acquire
or
reduce
credit
exposure
to
a
particular
issuer,
asset
or
basket
of
instruments.
As
the
seller
of
protection
in
a
credit

a
Fund
would
be
required
to
pay
the

or
other

credit
event)
and
the
counterparty
would
be
required
to
surrender
the
reference
debt
obligation.
In
return,
the
Fund
would
receive
from
the
counterparty
a
periodic
stream
of
payments
over
the
term
of
the
contract
provided
that
no
credit
event
has
occurred.
If
no
credit
event
occurs,
the
Fund
would
keep
the
stream
of
payments
and
would
have
no
payment
obligations.
As
a
seller
of
protection,
the
Fund
would
effectively
add
leverage
to
its
portfolio
because,
in
addition
to
its
total
net
assets,
that
Fund
would
be
subject
to
investment
exposure
on
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap.
The
Fund
may
also
purchase
protection
via
credit
default
swap
contracts
in
order
to
offset
the
risk
of
default
of
debt
securities
held
in
their
portfolios
or
to
take
a
short
position
in
a
debt
security,
in
which
case
the
Fund
would
function
as
the
counterparty
referenced
in
the
preceding
paragraph.
If
a
credit
event
occurs
and
cash
settlement
is
not
elected,
a
variety
of
other
deliverable
obligations
may
be
delivered
in
lieu
of
the
specific
referenced
obligation.
The
ability
to
deliver
other
obligations
may
result
in
a
cheapest-to-deliver
option
(the
buyer
of
protection’s
right
to
choose
the
deliverable
obligation
with
the
lowest
value
following
a
credit
event).
The
Fund
may
use
credit
default
swaps
to
provide
a
measure
of
protection
against
defaults
of
the
issuers
(i.e.,
to
reduce
risk
where
the
Fund
owns
or
has
exposure
to
the
referenced
obligation)
or
to
take
an
active
long
or
short
position
with
respect
to
the
likelihood
(as
measured
by
the
credit
default
swap’s
spread)
of
a
particular
issuer’s
default.
Deliverable
obligations
for
credit
default
swaps
on
asset-backed
securities
in
most
instances
are
limited
to
the
specific
referenced
obligation
as
performance
for
asset-backed
securities
can
vary
across
deals.
Prepayments,
principal
paydowns,
and
other
writedown
or
loss
events
on
the
underlying
mortgage
loans
will
reduce
the
outstanding
principal
balance
of
the
referenced
obligation.
These
reductions
may
be
temporary
or
permanent
as
defined
under
the
terms
of
the
swap
agreement
and
the
notional
amount
for
the
swap
agreement
generally
will
be
adjusted
by
corresponding
amounts.
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
use
credit
default
swaps
on
asset-
backed
securities
to
provide
a
measure
of
protection
against
defaults
(or
other
defined
credit
events)
of
the
referenced
obligation
or
to
take
an
active
long
or
short
position
with
respect
to
the
likelihood
of
a
particular
referenced
obligation’s
default
(or
another
defined
credit
event).
Credit
default
swap
agreements
on
credit
indices
involve
one
party
making
a
stream
of
payments
to
another
party
in
exchange
for
the
right
to
receive
a
specified
return
in
the
event
of
a
write-down,
principal
shortfall,
interest
shortfall
or
default
of
all
or
part
of
the
referenced
entities
comprising
the
credit
index.
A
credit
index
is
a
basket
of
credit
instruments
or
exposures
designed
to
be
representative
of
some
part
of
the
credit
market
as
a
whole.
These
indices
are
made
up
of
reference
credits
that
are
judged
by
a
poll
of
dealers
to
be
the
most
liquid
entities
in
the
credit
default
swap
market
based
on
the
sector
of
the
index.
Components
of
the
indices
may
include,
but
are
not
limited
to,
investment
grade
securities,
high
yield
securities,
asset-backed
securities,
emerging
markets,
and/or
various
credit
ratings
within
each
sector.
Credit
indices
are
traded
using
credit
default
swaps
with
standardized
terms
including
a
fixed
spread
and
standard
maturity
dates.
An
index
credit
default
swap
references
all
the
names
in
the
index,
and
if
there
is
a
default,
the
credit
event
is
settled
based
on
that
name’s
weight
in
the
index.
The
composition
of
the
indices
changes
periodically,
usually
every
six
months,
and,
for
most
indices,
each
name
has
an
equal
weight
in
the
index.
Traders
may
use
credit
default
swaps
on
indices
to
speculate
on
changes
in
credit
quality.
Implied
credit
spreads,
represented
in
absolute
terms,
utilized
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
credit
default
swap
agreements
on
corporate
issues
as
of
period-end
are
disclosed
in
the
Schedules
of
Investments
and
generally
serve
as
an
indicator
of
the
current
status
of
the
payment/performance
risk
and
represent
the
likelihood
or
risk
of
default
(or
other
defined
credit
event)
for
the
credit
derivative.
The
implied
credit
spread
of
a
particular
referenced
entity
reflects
the
cost
of
entering
into
a
credit
default
swap
and
may
include
upfront
payments
required
to
be
made
to
enter
into
the
agreement.
For
credit
default
swap
agreements
on
asset-
backed
securities
and
credit
indices,
the
quoted
market
prices
and
resulting
values
serve
as
the
indicator
of
the
current
status
of
the
payment/performance
risk.
Wider
credit
spreads
and
increasing
fair
values,
in
absolute
terms
when
compared
to
the
notional
amount
of
the
swap,
generally
represent
a
deterioration
of
the
referenced
entity’s
credit
soundness
and
a
greater
likelihood
or
risk
of
default
or
other
credit
event
occurring
as
defined
under
the
terms
of
the
agreement.
The
maximum
potential
amount
of
future
payments
(undiscounted)
that
the
Fund
as
a
seller
of
protection
could
be
required
to
make
under
a
credit
default
swap
agreement
equals
the
notional
amount
of
the
agreement.
Notional
amounts
of
all
credit
default
swap
agreements
outstanding
as
of
March
31,
2020,
for
which
a
Fund
is
the
seller
of
protection
are
disclosed
in
the
Schedules
of
Investments.
These
potential
amounts
would
be
partially
offset
by
any
recovery
values
of
the
respective
referenced
obligations,
upfront
payments
received
upon
entering
into
the
agreement,
or
net
amounts
received
from
the
settlement
of
buy
protection
credit
default
swap
agreements
entered
into
by
the
Fund
for
the
same
referenced
entity
or
entities.
Credit
default
swaps
could
result
in
losses
if
the
Fund
does
not
correctly
evaluate
the
creditworthiness
of
the
company
or
companies
on
which
the
credit
default
swap
is
based.
Credit
default
swap
agreements
may
involve
greater
risks
than
if
the
Fund
had
invested

in
the
reference
obligation
directly
since,
in
addition
to
risks
relating
to
the
reference
obligation,
credit
default
swaps
are
subject
to
illiquidity
and
counterparty
risk.
The
Fund
will
generally
incur
a
greater
degree
of
risk
when
it
sells
a
credit
default
swap
than
when
it
purchases
a
credit
default
swap.
As
a
buyer
of
a
credit
default
swap,
the
Fund
may
lose
its
investment
and
recover
nothing
should
a
credit
event
fail
to
occur
and
the
swap
is
held
to
its
termination
date.
As
seller
of
a
credit
default
swap,
if
a
credit
event
were
to
occur,
the
value
of
any
deliverable
obligation
received
by
the
Fund,
coupled
with
the
upfront
or
periodic
payments
previously
received,
may
be
less
than
what
it
pays
to
the
buyer,
resulting
in
a
loss
of
value
to
the
Fund.
If
the
creditworthiness
of
the
Fund’s
swap
counterparty
declines,
the
risk
that
the
counterparty
may
not
perform
could
increase,
potentially
resulting
in
a
loss
to
the
Fund.
To
limit
the
counterparty
risk
involved
in
swap
agreements,
the
Fund
will
only
enter
into
swap
agreements
with
counterparties
that
meet
certain
standards
of
creditworthiness.
Although
there
can
be
no
assurance
that
the
Fund
will
be
able
to
do
so,
the
Fund
may
be
able
to
reduce
or
eliminate
its
exposure
under
a
swap
agreement
either
by
assignment
or
other
disposition,
or
by
entering
into
an
offsetting
swap
agreement
with
the
same
party
or
another
creditworthy
party.
The
Fund
may
have
limited
ability
to
eliminate
its
exposure
under
a
credit
default
swap
if
the
credit
quality
of
the
reference
entity
or
underlying
asset
has
declined.
For
the
period
ended
March
31,
2020,
the
Strategic
Bond
Fund
entered
into
credit
default
swaps
primarily
for
the
strategies
listed
below:
The
Funds'
period
end
credit
default
swap
contracts,
as
presented
in
the
table
following
the
Schedule
of

generally
are
indicative
of
the
volume
of
their
derivative
activity
during
the
period
ended
March
31,
2020.
Interest
Rate
Swaps
The
use
of
interest
rate
swaps
is
a
highly
specialized
activity
which
involves
investment
techniques
and
risks
different
from
those
associated
with
ordinary
portfolio
securities
transactions.
If
RIM
or
a
money
manager
using
this
technique
is
incorrect
in
its
forecast
of
fair
values,
interest
rates
and
other
applicable
factors,
the
investment
performance
of
a
Fund
might
diminish
compared
to
what
it
would
have
been
if
this
investment
technique
were
not
used.
Interest
rate
swaps
do
not
involve
the
delivery
of
securities
or
other
underlying
assets
or
principal.
Accordingly,
the
risk
of
loss
with
respect
to
interest
rate
swaps
is
limited
to
the
net
amount
of
interest
payments
that
a
Fund
is
contractually
obligated
to
make.
Interest
rate
swaps
are
traded
on
exchanges
and
are
subject
to
central
clearing.
If
the
clearing
house
or
futures
commission
merchant
defaults,
a
Funds'
risk
of
loss
consists
of
the
net
amount
of
interest
payments
that
a
Fund
is
contractually
entitled
to
receive.
The
counterparty
risk
for
cleared
derivatives
is
generally
lower
than
for
uncleared
derivatives.
However,
clearing
may
subject
a
Fund
to
increased
costs
or
margin
requirements.
For
the
period
ended
March
31,
2020,
the
Strategic
Bond
Fund
entered
into
interest
rate
swaps
primarily
for
the
strategies

Total
Return
Swaps
Certain
Funds
may
enter
into
total
return
swap
agreements
to
expose
cash
to
markets
or
to
effect
investment
transactions.
Total
return
swap
agreements
are
two
party
contracts
entered
into
primarily
by
institutional
investors
for
periods
ranging
from
a
few
weeks
to
more
than
one
year.
In
a
standard
total
return
swap
transaction,
the
two
parties
agree
to
exchange
the
returns
(or
differentials
in
rates
of
return)
earned
or
realized
on
particular
investments
or
instruments.
The
returns
to
be
exchanged
between
the
parties
are
calculated
with
respect
to
a
“notional
amount”
(i.e.,
a
specified
dollar
amount
that
is
hypothetically
invested
in
a
“basket”
of
securities
representing
a
particular
index).
For
the
period
ended
March

the

Fund
entered
into
total

swaps

Currency
Swaps
Certain
Funds
may
enter
into
currency
swap
agreements
to
enhance
returns
or
for
hedging
purposes.
Currency
swap
agreements
are
agreements
where
two
parties
exchange
specified
amounts
of
different
currencies
which
are
followed
by
paying
the
other
a
series
of
interest
payments
that
are
based

the
principal
cash

At

the

For

Master
Agreements
Certain
Funds
are
parties
to
International
Swaps
and
Derivatives
Association,
Inc.
Master
Agreements
(“ISDA
Master
Agreements”)
with
counterparties
that
govern
transactions
in
OTC
derivative
and
foreign
exchange
contracts
entered
into
by
the
Funds
and
those
counterparties.
The
ISDA
Master
Agreements
contain
provisions
for
general
obligations,
representations,
agreements,
collateral
and
events
of
default
or
termination.
Events
of
termination
and
default
include
conditions
that
may
entitle
either
party
to
elect
to
terminate
early
and
cause
settlement
of
all
outstanding
transactions
under
the
applicable
ISDA
Master
Agreement.
Any
election
to
terminate
early
could
be
material
to
the
financial
statements.
Since
different
types
of
forward
and
OTC
financial
derivative
transactions
have
different
mechanics
and
are
sometimes
traded
out
of
different
legal
entities
of
a
particular
counterparty
organization,
each
type
of
transaction
may
be
covered
by
a
different
ISDA
Master
Agreement,
resulting
in
the
need
for
multiple
agreements
with
a
single
counterparty.
As
the
ISDA
Master
Agreements
are
specific
to
unique
operations
of
different
asset
types,
they
allow
a
Fund
to
net
its
total
exposure
to
a
counterparty
in
the
event
of
a
default
with
respect
to
all
the
transactions
governed
under
a
single
agreement
with
a
counterparty.
Master
Repurchase
Agreements
(“Master
Repo
Agreements”)
govern
transactions
between
a
Fund
and
select
counterparties.
The
Master
Repo
Agreements
maintain
provisions
for,
among
other
things,
initiation,
income
payments,
events
of
default,
and
maintenance
of
collateral
for
repurchase
and
reverse
repurchase
agreements.
Master
Securities
Forward
Transaction
Agreements
(“Master
Forward
Agreements”)
govern
the
considerations
and
factors
surrounding
the
settlement
of
certain
forward
settling
transactions,
such
as
delayed
delivery
by
and
between
a
Fund
and
select
counterparties.
The
Master
Forward
Agreements
maintain
provisions
for,
among
other
things,
initiation
and
confirmation,
payment
and
transfer,
events
of
default,
termination,
and
maintenance
of
collateral.
Loan
Agreements
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
invest
in
direct
debt
instruments,
which
are
interests
in
amounts
owed
by
corporate,
governmental,
or
other
borrowers
to
lenders
or
lending
syndicates.
The
Fund's
investments
in
loans
may
be
in
the
form
of
participations
in
loans
or
assignments
of
all
or
a
portion
of
loans
from
third
parties.
A
loan
is
often
administered
by
a
bank
or
other
financial
institution
(the
“agent”)
that
acts
as
agent
for
all
holders.
The
agent
administers
the
terms
of
the
loan,
as
specified
in
the
loan
agreement.
When
investing
in
a
loan
participation,
the
Fund
has
the
right
to
receive
payments
of
principal,
interest
and
any
fees
to
which
it
is
entitled
only
from
the
agent
selling
the
loan
agreement
and
only
upon
receipt
by
the
agent
of
payments
from
the
borrower.
The
Fund
generally
has
no
right
to
enforce
compliance
with
the
terms
of
the
loan
agreement
with
the
borrower.
As
a
result,
the
Fund
may
be
subject
to
the
credit
risk
of
both
the
borrower
and
the
agent
that
is
selling
the
loan
agreement.
When
the
Fund
purchases
assignments
from
agents
it
acquires
direct
rights
against
the
borrower
on
the
loan.
As
of
March
31,
2020,
the
Strategic
Bond
Fund
had
no
unfunded
loan
commitments.
Local
Access
Products
Certain
Funds
may
invest
in
local
access
products,
also
known
as
certificates
of
participation,
participation
notes
or
participation
interest
notes.
Local
access
products
are
issued
by
banks
or
broker-dealers
and
are
designed
to
replicate
the
performance
of
foreign
companies
or
foreign
securities
markets
and
can
be
used
by
the
Fund
as
an
alternative
means
to
access
the
securities
market
of
a
frontier
emerging
market
country.
The
performance
results

and

Investments

companies
or
foreign
securities
markets
whose
return
they
seek
to
replicate.
There
can
be
no
assurance
that
there
will
be
a
trading
market
or
that
the
trading
price
of
local
access
products
will
equal
the
underlying
value
of
the
foreign
company
or
foreign
securities
market
that
it
seeks
to
replicate.
The
Funds
rely
on
the
creditworthiness
of
the
counterparty
issuing
the
local
access
products
and
have
no
rights
against
the
issuer
of
the
underlying
security.
The
Funds
minimize
this
risk
by
entering
into
agreements
only
with
counterparties
that
RIM
deems
creditworthy.
Due
to
liquidity
and
transfer
restrictions,
the
secondary
markets
on
which
the
local
access
products
are
traded
may
be
less
liquid
than
the
markets
for
other
securities,
or
may
be
completely
illiquid.
Short
Sales
The
U.S.
Small
Cap
Equity
Fund
may
enter
into
short
sale
transactions.
In
a
short
sale,
the
seller
sells
a
security
that
it
does
not
own,
typically
a
security
borrowed
from
a
broker
or
dealer.
Because
the
seller
remains
liable
to
return
the
underlying
security
that
it
borrowed
from
the
broker
or
dealer,
the
seller
must
purchase
the
security
prior
to
the
date
on
which
delivery
to
the
broker
or
dealer
is
required.
A
Fund
will
incur
a
loss
as
a
result
of
the
short
sale
if
the
price
of
the
security
increases
between
the
date
of
the
short
sale
and
the
date
on
which
the
Fund
must
return
the
borrowed
security.
A
Fund
will
realize
a
gain
if
the
security
declines
in
price
between
those
dates.
Short
sales
expose
a
Fund
to
the
risk
of
liability
for
the
fair
value
of
the
security
that
is
sold
(the
amount
of
which
increases
as
the
fair
value
of
the
underlying
security
increases),
in
addition
to
the
costs
associated
with
establishing,
maintaining
and
closing
out
the
short
position.
Although
a
Fund’s
potential
for
gain
as
a
result
of
a
short
sale
is
limited
to
the
price
at
which
it
sold
the
security
short
less
the
cost
of
borrowing
the
security,
its
potential
for
loss
is
theoretically
unlimited
because
there
is
no
limit
to
the
cost
of
replacing
the
borrowed
security.
When
a
Fund
makes
a
short
sale,
the
Fund
may
use
all
or
a
portion
of
the
cash
proceeds
of
short
sales
to
purchase
other
securities
or
for
any
other
permissible
Fund
purpose.
The
U.S.
Small
Cap
Equity
Fund
currently
engages
in
short
sale
transactions
that
are
effected
through
State
Street
but
reserves
the
right
to
engage
in
short
sale
transactions
through
one
or
more
other
counterparties.
For
short
sale
transactions
effected
through
State
Street,
the
Fund
typically
expects
to
collateralize
short
sale
transactions
through
the
Fund’s
reciprocal
lending
activity
with
State
Street
(i.e.,
short
sale
transactions
are
collateralized
by
securities
loaned
to
State
Street
for
purposes
of
securities
lending
activities).
The
Fund
may
also
deliver
cash
to
State
Street
for
purposes
of
collateralizing
its
short
sales
transactions
or
“memo
pledge”
securities
as
collateral,
whereby
assets
are
designated
as
collateral
by
State
Street
on
State
Street’s
books
but
remain
in
the
Fund’s
custody
account.
Similar
to
the
risks
generally
applicable
to
securities
lending
arrangements,
participation
in
the
reciprocal
lending
program
subjects
the
Fund
to
the
risk
that
State
Street
could
fail
to
return
a
security
lent
to
it
by
the
Fund,
or
fail
to
return
the
Fund’s
cash
collateral,
a
risk
which
would
increase
with
any
decline
in
State
Street’s
credit
profile.
However,
the
impact
of
State
Street’s
failure
to
return
a
security
lent
to
it
by
the
Fund,
or
failure
to
return
the
Fund’s
cash
collateral,
would
be
mitigated
by
the
Fund’s
right
under
such
circumstances
to
decline
to
return
the
securities
the
Fund
initially
borrowed
from
State
Street
with
respect
to
its
short
sale
transactions.
This
risk
may
be
heightened
during
periods
of
market
stress
and
volatility,
particularly
if
the
type
of
collateral
provided
is
different
than
the
type
of
security
borrowed
(e.g.,
cash
is
provided
as
collateral
for
a
loan
of
an
equity
security).
To
the
extent
necessary
to
meet
collateral
requirements
associated
with
a
short
sale
transaction
involving
a
counterparty
other
than
State
Street,
the
Fund
is
required
to
pledge
assets
in
a
segregated
account
maintained
by
the
Fund’s
custodian
for
the
benefit
of
the
broker.
The
Fund
may
also
use
securities
it
owns
to
meet
any
such
collateral
obligations.
Until
the
Fund
replaces
a
borrowed
security
in
connection
with
a
short
sale,
the
Fund
will:
(a)
maintain
daily
a
segregated
account,
containing
liquid
assets
at
such
a
level
that
the
amount
deposited
in
the
segregated
account
will
equal
the
current
requirement
under
Regulation
T
promulgated
by
the
Board
of
Governors
of
the
Federal
Reserve
System
under
the
authority
of
Sections
7
and
8
of
the
Securities
Exchange
Act
of
1934,
as
amended;
or
(b)
otherwise
cover
its
short
positions
in
accordance
with
positions
taken
by
the
staff
of
the
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(e.g.,
taking
an
offsetting
long
position
in
the
security
sold
short).
These
requirements
may
result
in
the
Fund
being
unable
to
purchase
or
sell
securities
or
instruments
when
it
would
otherwise
be
favorable
to
do
so,
or
in
the
Fund
needing
to
sell
holdings
at
a
disadvantageous
time
to
satisfy
its
obligations
or
to
meet
segregation
requirements.
If
the
Fund’s
prime
broker
fails
to
make
or
take
delivery
of
a
security
as
part
of
a
short
sale
transaction,
or
fails
to
make
a
cash
settlement
payment,
the
settlement
of
the
transaction
may
be
delayed
and
the
Fund
may
lose
money.

Securities
Lending
The
Investment
Company
has
a
securities
lending
program
whereby
each
Fund
can
loan
securities
with
a
value
up
to
33
1/3%
of
each
Fund's
total
assets.
The
maturity
associated
with
these
securities
is
considered
continuous.
The
Fund
receives
cash
(U.S.
currency),
U.S.
Government
or
U.S.
Government
Agency
obligations
as
collateral
against
the
loaned
securities.
The
collateral
cannot
be
resold,
repledged
or
rehypothecated.
As
of
March
31,
2020,
to
the
extent
that
a
loan
was
collateralized
by
cash,
such
collateral
was
invested
by
the
securities
lending
agent,
Goldman
Sachs
Agency
Lending
("GSAL"),
in
the
U.S.
Cash
Collateral
Fund,
an
unregistered
fund
advised
by
RIM.
To
the
extent
that
a
loan
is
secured
by
non-cash
collateral,
brokers
pay
the
Fund
negotiated
lenders'
fees,
which
are
divided
between
the
Fund
and
the
securities
lending
agent
and
are
recorded
as
securities
lending
income
for
the
Fund.
All
collateral
received
will
be
in
an
amount
at
least
equal
to
102%
(for
loans
of
U.S.
securities)
or
105%
(for
loans
of
non-U.S.
securities)
of
the
fair
value
of
the
loaned
securities
at
the
inception
of
each
loan.
The
fair
value
of
the
loaned
securities
is
determined
at
the
close
of
business
of
the
Fund
and
any
additional
required
collateral
is
delivered
to
the
Fund
the
next
day.
Should
the
borrower
of
the
securities
fail
financially,
there
is
a
risk
of
delay
in
recovery
of
the
securities
or
loss
of
rights
in
the
collateral.
Emerging
Markets
Securities
Certain
funds
may
invest
in
emerging
markets
securities.
Investing
in
emerging
markets
securities
can
pose
some
risks
different
from,
and
greater
than,
risks
of
investing
in
U.S.
or
developed
markets
securities.
These
risks
include:
a
risk
of
loss
due
to
exposure
to
economic
structures
that
are
generally
less
diverse
and
mature,
and
to
political
systems
which
may
have
less
stability,
than
those
of
more
developed
countries;
smaller
market
capitalization
of
securities
markets,
which
may
suffer
periods
of
relative
illiquidity;
significant
price
volatility;
restrictions
on
foreign
investment;
and
possible
difficulties
in
the
repatriation
of
investment
income
and
capital.
In
addition,
foreign
investors
may
be
required
to
register
the
proceeds
of
sales
and
future
economic
or
political
crises
could
lead
to
price
controls,
forced
mergers,
expropriation
or
confiscatory
taxation,
seizure,
nationalization,
or
creation
of
government
monopolies.
The
currencies
of
emerging
market
countries
may
experience
significant
declines
against
the
U.S.
dollar,
and
devaluation
may
occur
subsequent
to
investments
in
these
currencies
by
the
Funds.
Emerging
market
securities
may
be
subject
to
currency
transfer
restrictions
and
may
experience
delays
and
disruptions
in
settlement
procedures.
Inflation
and
rapid
fluctuations
in
inflation
rates
have
had,
and
may
continue
to
have,
negative
effects
on
the
economies
and
securities
markets
of
certain
emerging
market
countries.
Emerging
Markets
Debt
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
invest
in
emerging
markets
debt.
The
Fund's
emerging
markets
debt
securities
may
include
obligations
of
governments
and
corporations.
As
with
any
fixed
income
securities,
emerging
markets
debt
securities
are
subject
to
the
risk
of
being
downgraded
in
credit
rating
due
to
the
risk
of
default.
In
the
event
of
a
default
on
any
investments
in
foreign
debt
obligations,
it
may
be
more
difficult
for
the
Fund
to
obtain
or
to
enforce
a
judgment
against
the
issuers
of
such
securities.
With
respect
to
debt
issued
by
emerging
market
governments,
such
issuers
may
be
unwilling
to
pay
interest
and
repay
principal
when
due,
either
due
to
an
inability
to
pay
or
submission
to
political
pressure
not
to
pay,
and
as
a
result
may
default,
declare
temporary
suspensions
of
interest
payments
or
require
that
the
conditions
for
payment
be
renegotiated.
Repurchase
Agreements
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
enter
into
repurchase
agreements.
A
repurchase
agreement
is
an
agreement
under
which
a
Fund
acquires
a
fixed
income
security
from
a
commercial
bank,
broker
or
dealer
and
simultaneously
agrees
to
resell
such
security
to
the
seller
at
an
agreed
upon
price
and
date
(normally
within
a
few
days
or
weeks).
The
resale
price
reflects
an
agreed
upon
interest
rate
effective
for
the
period
the
security
is
held
by
a
Fund
and
is
unrelated
to
the
interest
rate
on
the
security.
The
securities
acquired
by
a
Fund
constitute
collateral
for
the
repurchase
obligation.
In
these
transactions,
the
securities
acquired
by
a
Fund
(including
accrued
interest
earned
thereon)
must
have
a
total
value
in
excess
of
the
value
of
the
repurchase
agreement
and
must
be
held
by
the
custodian
bank
until
repurchased.
A
Fund
will
not
invest
more
than
15%
of
its
net
assets
(taken
at
current
fair
value)
in
repurchase
agreements
maturing
in
more
than
seven
days.
Mortgage-Related
and
Other
Asset-Backed
Securities
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
invest
in
mortgage
or
other
asset-backed
securities
(“ABS”).
These
securities
may
include
mortgage
instruments
issued
by
U.S.
government
agencies
(“agency
mortgages”)
or
those
issued
by
private
entities
(“non-agency
mortgages”).
Specific
types
of
instruments
may
include
reverse
mortgages,
mortgage
pass-through
securities,
collateralized
mortgage
obligations

(“CMO”),
commercial
mortgage-backed
securities,
mortgage
dollar
rolls,
CMO
residuals,
stripped
mortgage-backed
securities
and
other
securities
that
directly
or
indirectly
represent
a
participation
in,
or
are
secured
by
a
payable
from,
mortgage
loans
on
real
property.
The
value
of
a
Fund’s
mortgage-backed
securities
(“MBS”)
may
be
affected
by,
among
other
things,
changes
or
perceived
changes
in
interest
rates,
factors
concerning
the
interests
in
and
structure
of
the
issuer
or
the
originator
of
the
mortgage,
or
the
quality
of
the
underlying
assets.
The
mortgages
underlying
the
securities
may
default
or
decline
in
quality
or
value.
Through
its
investments
in
MBS,
a
Fund
has
exposure
to
subprime
loans,
Alt-A
loans
and
non-conforming
loans
as
well
as
to
the
mortgage
and
credit
markets
generally.
Underlying
collateral
related
to
subprime,
Alt-A
and
non-conforming
mortgage
loans
has
become
increasingly
susceptible
to
defaults
and
declines
in
quality
or
value,
especially
in
a
declining
residential
real
estate
market.
In
addition,
regulatory
or
tax
changes
may
adversely
affect
the
mortgage
securities
markets
as
a
whole.
Mortgage-Backed
Securities
MBS
often
have
stated
maturities
of
up
to
thirty
years
when
they
are
issued,
depending
upon
the
length
of
the
mortgages
underlying
the
securities.
In
practice,
however,
unscheduled
or
early
payments
of
principal
and
interest
on
the
underlying
mortgages
may
make
the
securities’
effective
maturity
shorter
than
this,
and
the
prevailing
interest
rates
may
be
higher
or
lower
than
the
current
yield
of
a
Fund’s
portfolio
at
the
time
resulting
in
reinvestment
risk.
Rising
or
high
interest
rates
may
result
in
slower
than
expected
principal
payments
which
may
tend
to
extend
the
duration
of
MBS,
making
them
more
volatile
and
more
sensitive
to
changes
in
interest
rates.
This
is
known
as
extension
risk.
MBS
may
have
less
potential
for
capital
appreciation
than
comparable
fixed
income
securities
due
to
the
likelihood
of
increased
prepayments
of
mortgages
resulting
from
foreclosures
or
declining
interest
rates.
These
foreclosed
or
refinanced
mortgages
are
paid
off
at
face
value
(par)
or
less,
causing
a
loss,
particularly
for
any
investor
who
may
have
purchased
the
security
at
a
premium
or
a
price
above
par.
In
such
an
environment,
this
risk
limits
the
potential
price
appreciation
of
these
securities.
Agency
Mortgage-Backed
Securities
Certain
MBS
may
be
issued
or
guaranteed
by
the
U.S.
government
or
a
government
sponsored
entity,
such
as
Fannie
Mae
(the
Federal
National
Mortgage
Association)
or
Freddie
Mac
(the
Federal
Home
Loan
Mortgage
Corporation).
Although
these
instruments
may
be
guaranteed
by
the
U.S.
government
or
a
government
sponsored
entity,
many
such
MBS
are
not
backed
by
the
full
faith
and
credit
of
the
United
States
and
are
still
exposed
to
the
risk
of
non-payment.
Privately
Issued
Mortgage-Backed
Securities
MBS
held
by
a
Fund
may
be
issued
by
private
issuers
including
commercial
banks,
savings
associations,
mortgage
companies,
investment
banking
firms,
finance
companies
and
special
purpose
finance
entities
(called
special
purpose
vehicles
or
SPVs)
and
other
entities
that
acquire
and
package
mortgage
loans
for
resale
as
MBS.
These
privately
issued
non-agency
MBS
may
offer
higher
yields
than
those
issued
by
government
agencies,
but
also
may
be
subject
to
greater
price
changes
than
governmental
issues.
Subprime
loans
refer
to
loans
made
to
borrowers
with
weakened
credit
histories
or
with
a
lower
capacity
to
make
timely
payments
on
their
loans.
Alt-A
loans
refer
to
loans
extended
to
borrowers
who
have
incomplete
documentation
of
income,
assets,
or
other
variables
that
are
important
to
the
credit
underwriting
processes.
Non-conforming
mortgages
are
loans
that
do
not
meet
the
standards
that
allow
purchase
by
government-sponsored
enterprises.
MBS
with
exposure
to
subprime
loans,
Alt-A
loans
or
nonconforming
loans
have
had
in
many
cases
higher
default
rates
than
those
loans
that
meet
government
underwriting
requirements.
The
risk
of
non-payment
is
greater
for
MBS
that
are
backed
by
mortgage
pools
that
contain
subprime,
Alt-A
and
non-conforming
loans,
but
a
level
of
risk
exists
for
all
loans.
Unlike
agency
MBS
issued
or
guaranteed
by
the
U.S.
government
or
a
government-sponsored
entity
(e.g.,
Fannie
Mae
and
Freddie
Mac),
MBS
issued
by
private
issuers
do
not
have
a
government
or
government-sponsored
entity
guarantee,
but
may
have
credit
enhancements
provided
by
external
entities
such
as
banks
or
financial
institutions
or
achieved
through
the
structuring
of
the
transaction
itself.
Examples
of
such
credit
support
arising
out
of
the
structure
of
the
transaction
include
the
issue
of
senior
and
subordinated
securities
(e.g.,
the
issuance
of
securities
by
an
SPV
in
multiple
classes
or
tranches,
with
one
or
more
classes
being
senior
to
other
subordinated
classes
as
to
the
payment
of
principal
and
interest,
with
the
result
that
defaults
on
the
underlying
mortgage
loans
are
borne
first
by
the
holders
of
the
subordinated
class);
creation
of
reserve
funds
(in
which
case
cash
or
investments,
sometimes
funded
from
a
portion
of
the
payments
on
the
underlying
mortgage
loans,
are
held
in
reserve
against
future
losses);
and
overcollateralization
(in
which
case
the
scheduled
payments
on,
or
the
principal
amount
of,
the
underlying
mortgage
loans
exceeds
that
required
to
make
payment
on
the
securities
and
pay
any
servicing
or
other
fees).
However,
there
can
be
no
guarantee
that
credit
enhancements,
if
any,
will
be
sufficient
to
prevent
losses
in
the
event
of
defaults
on
the
underlying
mortgage
loans.

that
are
issued
by
private
issuers
are
not
subject
to
the
underwriting
requirements
for
the
underlying
mortgages
that
are
applicable
to
those
MBS
that
have
a
government
or
government-sponsored
entity
guarantee.
As
a
result,
the
mortgage
loans
underlying
private
MBS
may,
and
frequently
do,
have
less
favorable
collateral,
credit
risk
or
other
underwriting
characteristics
than
government
or
government-sponsored
MBS
and
have
wider
variances
in
a
number
of
terms
including
interest
rate,
term,
size,
purpose
and
borrower
characteristics.
Privately
issued
pools
more
frequently
include
second
mortgages,
high
loan-to-value
mortgages
and
manufactured
housing
loans.
The
coupon
rates
and
maturities
of
the
underlying
mortgage
loans
in
a
private-label
MBS
pool
may
vary
to
a
greater
extent
than
those
included
in
a
government
guaranteed
pool,
and
the
pool
may
include
subprime
mortgage
loans.
Privately
issued
MBS
are
not
traded
on
an
exchange
and
there
may
be
a
limited
market
for
the
securities,
especially
when
there
is
a
perceived
weakness
in
the
mortgage
and
real
estate
market
sectors.
Without
an
active
trading
market,
MBS
held
in
a
Fund's
portfolio
may
be
particularly
difficult
to
value
because
of
the
complexities
involved
in
assessing
the
value
of
the
underlying
mortgage
loans.
Asset-Backed
Securities
ABS
may
include
MBS,
loans,
receivables
or
other
assets.
The
value
of
the
Funds’
ABS
may
be
affected
by,
among
other
things,
actual
or
perceived
changes
in
interest
rates,
factors
concerning
the
interests
in
and
structure
of
the
issuer
or
the
originator
of
the
receivables,
the
market’s
assessment
of
the
quality
of
underlying
assets
or
actual
or
perceived
changes
in
the
credit
worthiness
of
the
individual
borrowers,
the
originator,
the
servicing
agent
or
the
financial
institution
providing
the
credit
support.
Payment
of
principal
and
interest
may
be
largely
dependent
upon
the
cash
flows
generated
by
the
assets
backing
the
securities.
Rising
or
high
interest
rates
tend
to
extend
the
duration
of
ABS,
making
them
more
volatile
and
more
sensitive
to
changes
in
interest
rates.
The
underlying
assets
are
sometimes
subject
to
prepayments
which
can
shorten
the
security’s
weighted
average
life
and
may
lower
its
return.
Defaults
on
loans
underlying
ABS
have
become
an
increasing
risk
for
ABS
that
are
secured
by
home
equity
loans
related
to
sub-prime,
Alt-A
or
non-conforming
mortgage
loans,
especially
in
a
declining
residential
real
estate
market.
ABS
(other
than
MBS)
present
certain
risks
that
are
not
presented
by
MBS.
Primarily,
these
securities
may
not
have
the
benefit
of
any
security
interest
in
the
related
assets.
Credit
card
receivables
are
generally
unsecured
and
the
debtors
are
entitled
to
the
protection
of
a
number
of
state
and
federal
consumer
credit
laws,
many
of
which
give
such
debtors
the
right
to
set
off
certain
amounts
owed
on
the
credit
cards,
thereby
reducing
the
balance
due.
There
is
the
possibility
that
recoveries
on
repossessed
collateral
may
not,
in
some
cases,
be
available
to
support
payments
on
these
securities.
ABS
are
often
backed
by
a
pool
of
assets
representing
the
obligations
of
a
number
of
different
parties.
To
lessen
the
effect
of
failures
by
obligors
on
underlying
assets
to
make
payments,
the
securities
may
contain
elements
of
credit
support
which
fall
into
two
categories:
(i)
liquidity
protection,
and
(ii)
protection
against
losses
resulting
from
ultimate
default
by
an
obligor
on
the
underlying
assets.
Liquidity
protection
refers
to
the
provision
of
advances,
generally
by
the
entity
administering
the
pool
of
assets,
to
ensure
that
the
receipt
of
payments
on
the
underlying
pool
occurs
in
a
timely
fashion.
Protection
against
losses
results
from
payment
of
the
insurance
obligations
on
at
least
a
portion
of
the
assets
in
the
pool.
This
protection
may
be
provided
through
guarantees,
policies
or
letters
of
credit
obtained
by
the
issuer
or
sponsor
from
third
parties,
through
various
means
of
structuring
the
transaction
or
through
a
combination
of
such
approaches.
The
Fund
will
not
pay
any
additional
or
separate
fees
for
credit
support.
The
degree
of
credit
support
provided
for
each
issue
is
generally
based
on
historical
information
respecting
the
level
of
credit
risk
associated
with
the
underlying
assets.
Delinquency
or
loss
in
excess
of
that
anticipated
or
failure
of
the
credit
support
could
adversely
affect
the
return
on
an
investment
in
such
a
security.
The
availability
of
ABS
may
be
affected
by
legislative
or
regulatory
developments.
It
is
possible
that
such
developments
may
require
the
Funds
to
dispose
of
any
then-existing
holdings
of
such
securities.
Forward
Commitments
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
contract
to
purchase
securities
for
a
fixed
price
at
a
future
date
beyond
customary
settlement
time.
The
price
of
the
underlying
securities
and
the
date
when
the
securities
will
be
delivered
and
paid
for
are
fixed
at
the
time
the
transaction
is
negotiated.
The
Fund
may
dispose
of
a
forward
commitment
transaction
prior
to
settlement
if
it
is
appropriate
to
do
so
and
may
realize
short-term
gains
(or
losses)
upon
such
sale.
When
effecting
such
transactions,
cash
or
liquid
high-grade
debt
obligations
of
the
Fund
in
a
dollar
amount
sufficient
to
make
payment
for
the
portfolio
securities
to
be
purchased
will
be
earmarked
on
the
Fund's
records
at
the
trade
date
and
until
the
transaction
is
settled.
A
forward
commitment
transaction
involves
a
risk
of
loss
if
the
value
of
the
security
to
be
purchased
declines
prior
to
the
settlement
date
or
the
other
party
to
the
transaction
fails
to
complete
the
transaction.
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
invest
in
to-be-announced
("TBA")
mortgage-backed
securities.
A
TBA
security
is
a
forward
mortgage-backed
securities
trade
in
which
a
seller
agrees
to
issue
a
TBA
mortgage-backed
security
at
a
future
date.
The
securities
Russell
Investment
Funds
Notes
to
Quarterly
Report,
continued
March

2020
(Unaudited)
Notes
to
Quarterly
Report

are
purchased
and
sold
on
a
forward
commitment
basis
with
an
approximate
principal
amount
and
maturity
date.
The
actual
principal
amount
and
maturity
date
will
be
determined
upon
settlement
when
the
specific
mortgage
pools
are
assigned.
These
securities
are
within
the
parameters
of
industry
“good
delivery”
standards.
As
of
March
31,
2020,
the
Strategic
Bond
Fund
had
no
cash
collateral
balances
in
connection
with
TBAs.
Inflation-Indexed
Bonds
The
Strategic
Bond
Fund
may
invest
in
inflation-indexed
securities,
which
are
typically
bonds
or
notes
designed
to
provide
a
return
higher
than
the
rate
of
inflation
(based
on
a
designated
index)
if
held
to
maturity.
A
common
type
of
inflation-indexed
security
is
a
U.S.
Treasury
Inflation-Protected
Security
(“TIPS”).
The
principal
of
a
TIPS
increases
with
inflation
and
decreases
with
deflation,
as
measured
by
the
Consumer
Price
Index.
When
a
TIPS
matures,
the
adjusted
principal
or
original
principal
is
paid,
whichever
is
greater.
TIPS
pay
interest
twice
a
year,
at
a
fixed
rate.
The
rate
is
applied
to
the
adjusted
principal;
so,
like
the
principal,
interest
payments
rise
with
inflation
and
fall
with
deflation.
Guarantees
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Funds
enter
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
representations
which
provide
general
indemnifications.
The
Funds’
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown
as
this
would
involve
future
claims
that
may
be
made
against
the
Funds
that
have
not
yet
occurred.
However,
the
Funds
expect
the
risk
of
loss
to
be
remote.
LIBOR
The
Funds
may
invest
in
certain
instruments
including,
but
not
limited
to,
repurchase
agreements,
collateralized
loan
obligations
and
mortgage-backed
securities,
that
rely
in
some
fashion
upon
LIBOR.
LIBOR
is
an
average
interest
rate,
determined
by
the
ICE
Benchmark
Administration,
that
banks
charge
one
another
for
the
use
of
short-term
money.
The
United
Kingdom’s
Financial
Conduct
Authority,
which
regulates
LIBOR,
has
announced
plans
to
phase
out
the
use
of
LIBOR
by
the
end
of
2021.
There
remains
uncertainty
regarding
the
future
utilization
of
LIBOR
and
the
nature
of
any
replacement
rate
(e.g.,
the
Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate,
which
is
intended
to
replace
U.S.
dollar
LIBOR
and
measures
the
cost
of
overnight
borrowings
through
repurchase
agreement
transactions
collateralized
with
U.S.
Treasury
securities).
Any
potential
effects
of
the
transition
away
from
LIBOR
on
the
Funds
or
on
certain
instruments
in
which
a
Fund
invests
can
be
difficult
to
ascertain,
and
they
may
vary
depending
on
factors
that
include,
but
are
not
limited
to:
(i)
existing
fallback
or
termination
provisions
in
individual
contracts
and
(ii)
whether,
how,
and
when
industry
participants
develop
and
adopt
new
reference
rates
and
fallbacks
for
both
legacy
and
new
products
and
instruments.
For
example,
certain
of
the
Fund’s
investments
may
involve
individual
contracts
that
have
no
existing
fallback
provision
or
language
that
contemplates
the
discontinuation
of
LIBOR,
and
those
investments
could
experience
increased
volatility
or
illiquidity
as
a
result
of
the
transition
process.
In
addition,
interest
rate
provisions
included
in
such
contracts
may
need
to
be
renegotiated
in
contemplation
of
the
transition
away
from
LIBOR.
The
transition
may
also
result
in
a
reduction
in
the
value
of
certain
instruments
held
by
a
Fund,
including
those
described
in
this
paragraph,
or
a
reduction
in
the
effectiveness
of
related
Fund
transactions
such
as
hedges.
Any
such
effects
of
the
transition
away
from
LIBOR,
as
well
as
other
unforeseen
effects,
could
result
in
losses
to
a
Fund.
Market,
Credit
and
Counterparty
Risk
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Funds
trade
financial
instruments
and
enter
into
financial
transactions
where
risk
of
potential
loss
exists
due
to
changes
in
the
market
(market
risk)
or
failure
of
the
other
party
to
a
transaction
to
perform
(credit
risk).
Similar
to
credit
risk,
the
Funds
may
also
be
exposed
to
counterparty
risk
or
risk
that
an
institution
or
other
entity
with
which
the
Funds
have
unsettled
or
open
transactions
will
default.
The
potential
loss
could
exceed
the
value
of
the
relevant
assets
recorded
in
the
financial
statements
(the
“Assets”).
The
Assets
consist
principally
of
cash
due
from
counterparties
and
investments.
Global
economies
and
financial
markets
are
becoming
increasingly
interconnected
and
political
and
economic
conditions
(including
recent
instability
and
volatility
due
to
international
trade
disputes)
and
events
(including
natural
disasters,
pandemics,
epidemics,
social
unrest
and
government
shutdowns)
in
one
country,
region
or
financial
market
may
adversely
impact
issuers
in
a
different
country,
region
or
financial
market.
As
a
result,
issuers
of
securities
held
by
a
Fund
may
experience
significant
declines
in
the
value
of
their
assets
and
even
cease
operations.
Such
conditions
and/or
events
may
not
have
the
same
impact
on
all
types
of
securities
and
may
expose
a
Fund
to
greater
market
and
liquidity
risk
and
potential
difficulty
in
valuing
portfolio
instruments
held.
This
could
cause
a
Fund
to
underperform
other
types
of
investments.
