NOTES TO SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS (all amounts in thousands)(continued):

 

(2) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, utilized in determining the market value of credit default swap agreements on corporate issues or sovereign issues of an emerging country as of period end serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include 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. A credit spread identified as “Defaulted” indicates a credit event has occurred for the referenced entity or obligation.
(3) The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to make as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement.
(4) If the Fund is a seller of protection and a credit event occurs, as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement, the fund will either (a) pay to the buyer of protection an amount equal to the notional amount of the swap and take delivery of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index or (b) pay a net settlement amount in the form of cash or securities equal to the notional amount of the swap less the recovery value of the referenced obligation or underlying securities comprising the referenced index.
(5) The quoted market prices and resulting values for credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities and credit indices serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood of an expected liability (or profit) for the credit derivative had the notional amount of the swap agreement been closed/sold as of the period ended. Increasing market values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the references 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.

Transamerica Partners Portfolios (each a “Portfolio” and collectively, the “Portfolios” )is an open-end management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Portfolios.

Repurchase agreements: Securities purchased subject to repurchase agreements are held at the Portfolios’ terms of the repurchase agreements, must be collateralized by securities with an aggregate market value greater than or equal to 100% of the resale price. The Portfolios will bear the risk of value fluctuations until the securities can be sold and may encounter delays and incur costs in liquidating the securities. In the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of the seller, delays and costs may be incurred.

Foreign currency denominated investments: The accounting records of the Portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars. Securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the closing exchange rate each day. The cost of foreign securities is translated at the exchange rates in effect when the investment was acquired.

Foreign currency denominated assets may involve risks not typically associated with domestic transactions. These risks include revaluation of currencies, adverse fluctuations in foreign currency values, and possible adverse political, social, and economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry, country, or region.

Forward foreign currency contracts: The Portfolios are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk exposure in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Portfolios, with the exception of Transamerica Partners Money Market Portfolio (“Money Market”) , enter into forward foreign currency contracts to hedge against exchange rate risk arising from investments in securities denominated in foreign currencies. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked to market daily. Risks may arise from changes in market value of the underlying currencies and from the possible inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts.

Open forward foreign currency contracts at March 31, 2012 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.

Option and swaption contracts: The Portfolios are subject to equity price risk, interest rate risk, and foreign currency exchange rate risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Portfolios, with the exception of Money Market, enter into option contracts to manage exposure to various market fluctuations. Options are valued at the average of the bid and ask (“Mean Quote”) established each day at the close of the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. The primary risks associated with options are: an imperfect correlation between the change in value of the securities held and the prices of the option contracts, the possibility of an illiquid market, and an inability of the counterparty to meet the contract terms.

The Portfolios write call and put options/swaptions on futures, swaps, securities, or currencies they own or in which they invest. The Portfolios purchase put and call options/swaptions on foreign or U.S. securities, indices, futures, swaps, and commodities. Purchasing call options tends to increase exposure to the underlying instrument. Purchasing put options tends to decrease exposure to the underlying instrument. Options are marked to market daily to reflect the current value of the option/swaption written.

The underlying face amounts of open option and swaption contracts at March 31, 2012 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.

Futures contracts: The Portfolios are subject to equity price risk, interest rate risk, foreign currency exchange rate risk, and commodity risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Portfolios, with the exception of Money Market, use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in the value of equities, interest rates, or foreign currencies. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date. Upon entering into such contracts, the Portfolios are required to deposit with the broker, either in cash or securities, an initial margin in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount.

Subsequent payments (variation margin) are paid or received by the Portfolios each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the contracts. Upon entering into such contracts, the Portfolios bear the risk of interest or exchange rates or security prices moving unexpectedly, in which case, the Portfolios may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may realize losses. With futures, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Portfolios since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default.

The open futures contracts at March 31, 2012 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.

Swap agreements: Swap agreements are privately negotiated agreements between the Portfolios and a counterparty to exchange or swap investments, cash flows, assets, foreign currencies, or market-linked returns at specified, future intervals. Certain Portfolios, with the exception of Money Market, enter into credit default, cross-currency, interest rate, total return, variance, and other forms of swap agreements to manage exposure to credit, currency, and interest rate risk. In connection with these agreements, securities may be identified as collateral in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide assets of value and recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/insolvency. Swaps are marked to market daily based upon values from third party vendors or quotations from market makers to the extent available. Specific risks and accounting related to each type of swap agreement are identified and described in the following paragraphs:

Credit default swap agreements: The Portfolios are subject to credit risk in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. The Portfolios enter into credit default swaps to manage their exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market, to reduce their risk exposure to defaults of corporate and sovereign issuers, or to create exposure to corporate or sovereign issuers to which they are not otherwise exposed. Credit default swaps involve the exchange of a fixed-rate premium for protection against the loss in value of an underlying security in the event of a defined credit event, such as payment default or bankruptcy (buy protection).

Under a credit default swap, one party acts as a guarantor by receiving the fixed periodic payment in exchange for the commitment to purchase the underlying security at par if the defined credit event occurs (sell protection). The Portfolios’ maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk, either as the protection seller or as the protection buyer, is the notional amount of the contract. This risk is mitigated by having a master netting arrangement between the Portfolios and the counterparty, and by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to the Portfolios to cover the Portfolios’ exposure to the counterparty.

Certain Portfolios sell credit default swaps which expose them to risk of loss from credit risk related events specified in the contracts. Although contract-specific, credit events are generally defined as bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, or repudiation/moratorium. The aggregate fair value of the credit default swaps are disclosed in the Schedules of Investments. The aggregate fair value of assets posted as collateral, net of assets received as collateral, for these swaps are included in the footnotes to the Schedules of Investments. If a defined credit event had occurred during the period, the swaps’ credit-risk-related contingent features would have been triggered and the Portfolios would have been required to pay the notional amounts for the credit default swaps with a sell protection less the value of contracts’ related reference obligations.

Interest rate swap agreements: The Portfolios are subject to interest rate risk exposure in the normal course of pursuing their investment objectives. To help hedge against this risk, the Portfolios enter into interest rate swap contracts. Interest rate swaps are agreements between two parties to exchange cash flows based on a notional principal amount. The Portfolios with interest rate swap agreements can elect to pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate, or, receive a fixed rate and pay a floating rate on a notional principal amount. The risks of interest rate swaps include changes in market conditions which will affect the value of the contract or the cash flows and the possible inability of the counterparty to fulfill its obligations under the agreement. The Portfolios’ maximum risk of loss from counterparty credit risk is the discounted net value of the cash flows to be received from/paid to the counterparties over the contracts’ remaining lives, to the extent that that amount is positive. This risk is mitigated by having a master netting arrangement between the Portfolios and the counterparty and by the posting of collateral by the counterparty to the Portfolios to cover the Portfolios’ exposure to the counterparty.

The open swap agreements at March 31, 2012 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.

Short sales: A short sale is a transaction in which a Portfolio, with the exception of Money Market, sells securities it does not own, but has borrowed, in anticipation of a decline in the market price of the securities. The Portfolios are obligated to replace the borrowed securities at the market price at the time of replacement. The Portfolios’ obligation to replace the securities borrowed in connection with a short sale is fully secured by collateral deposited with the custodian. In addition, the Portfolios consider the short sale to be a borrowing by the Portfolios that are subject to the asset coverage requirements of the 1940 Act. Short sales represent an aggressive trading practice with a high risk/return potential, and short sales involve special considerations. Risks of short sales include that possible losses from short sales may be unlimited (e.g., if the price of stocks sold short rises), whereas losses from direct purchases of securities are limited to the total amount invested, and the Portfolios may be unable to replace borrowed securities sold short.

Loan participations/assignments: Participations/assignments in commercial loans may be secured or unsecured. These investments may include standby financing commitments, including revolving credit facilities that obligate the Portfolios to supply additional cash to the borrowers on demand. Loan participations/assignments involve risks of insolvency of the lending banks or other financial intermediaries. As such, the Portfolios assume the credit risks associated with the corporate borrowers and may assume the credit risks associated with the interposed banks or other financial intermediaries.

The Portfolios, with the exception of Money Market, may be contractually obligated to receive approval from the agent banks and/or borrowers prior to the sale of these investments. Loan participations typically represent direct participation in loans to corporate borrowers, and generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending syndicates. The Portfolios that participate in such syndications, or can buy a portion of the loans, become part lenders. Loans are often administered by agent banks acting as agents for all holders.

Loan participations/assignments (continued):

The agent banks administer the terms of the loans, as specified in the loan agreements. In addition, the agent banks are normally responsible for the collection of principal and interest payments from the corporate borrowers and the apportionment of these payments to the credit of all institutions that are parties to the loan agreements. Unless, under the terms of the loans or other indebtedness, the Portfolios have direct recourse against the corporate borrowers, the Portfolios may have to rely on the agent banks or other financial intermediaries to apply appropriate credit remedies against corporate borrowers.

The Portfolios held no unsecured loan participations at March 31, 2012.

Structured notes: Certain Portfolios invest in structured notes. A structured debt instrument is a hybrid debt security that has an embedded derivative. This type of instrument is used to manage cash flows from the debt security. All structured notes are listed within the Schedules of Investments.

To be announced (“TBA”) purchase commitments: TBA purchase commitments are entered into to purchase securities for a fixed price at a future date, typically not to exceed 45 days. They are considered securities in themselves, and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines prior to settlement date, in addition to the risk of decline in the value of the Portfolios’ other assets. Unsettled TBA purchase commitments are valued at the current value of the underlying securities, according to the procedures described under Security Valuations.

Treasury inflation-protected securities (“TIPS”): Certain Portfolios invest in TIPS, specially structured bonds in which the principal amounts are adjusted daily to keep pace with inflation as measured by the U.S. Consumer Price Index.

Restricted and illiquid securities: Restricted and illiquid securities are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale or are illiquid. Restricted securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration. A security may be considered illiquid if it lacks a readily available market or if its valuation has not changed for a certain period of time. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at the current valuation may be difficult.

The restricted and illiquid securities at March 31, 2012 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.

Payment in-kind securities (“PIKs”): PIKs give the issuer the option at each interest payment date of making interest payments in either cash or additional debt securities. Those additional debt securities usually have the same terms, including maturity dates and interest rates, and associated risks as the original bonds.

The PIKs at March 31, 2012 are listed in the Schedules of Investments.

Securities lending: Securities are lent to qualified financial institutions and brokers. The lending of the Portfolio’s securities exposes the Portfolios to risks such as the following: (i) the borrowers may fail to return the loaned securities; (ii) the borrowers may not be able to provide additional collateral; (iii) the Portfolios may experience delays in recovery of the loaned securities or delays in access to collateral; or (iv) the Portfolios may experience losses related to the investment collateral. To minimize certain risks, loan counterparties pledge cash collateral equal to at least the market value of the securities loaned. Cash collateral received is invested in the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Trust-Prime Portfolio, a money market mutual fund registered under the 1940 Act.

The value of loaned securities and related collateral outstanding at March 31, 2012 are shown in the Schedules of Investments.

Real estate investment trusts (“REITs”): There are certain additional risks involved in investing in REITs. These include, but are not limited to, economic conditions, changes in zoning laws, real estate values, property taxes, and interest rates.

Security valuations: All investments in securities are recorded at their estimated fair value. The Portfolios value their investments at the close of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), astern Time, each normally 4 p.m. Eastern Time, each day the NYSE is open 4 for business. The Portfolios utilize various methods to measure the fair value of their investments on a recurring basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America establish a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The three Levels of inputs of the fair value hierarchy are defined as follows:

Level 1—Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.

Level 2—Inputs, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates, and similar data.

Level 3—Unobservable inputs, which may include Transamerica Asset Management Inc’s (“TAM”) Valuation Committee’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments. Factors considered in making this determination may include, but are not limited to, information obtained by contacting the sub-adviser, issuer, analysts, or the appropriate stock exchange (for exchange-traded securities), analysis of the issuer’s financial statements or other available documents and, if necessary, available information concerning other securities in similar circumstances.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, but not limited to, 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 judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is generally greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3. Due to the inherent uncertainty of valuation, TAM’s Valuation Committee’s determination of values may differ significantly from values that would have been realized had a ready market for investments existed and the differences could be material.

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 that is assigned to the fair value measurement of a security is determined based on the lowest Level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

Fair value measurements: Descriptions of the valuation techniques applied to the Portfolios’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:

Equity securities (common and preferred stock): Securities are stated at the last reported sales price or closing price on the day of valuation taken from the primary exchange where the security is principally traded. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Foreign securities, for which their primary trading market closes at the same time or after the NYSE, are valued based on quotations from the primary market in which they are traded and are categorized in Level 1. Because many foreign securities markets and exchanges close prior to the close of the NYSE, closing prices for foreign securities in those markets or on those exchanges do not reflect the events that occur after that close. Certain foreign securities may be fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intra-day trading in the U.S. markets for investments such as American Depositary Receipts, financial futures, Exchange Traded Funds, and the movement of certain indices of securities based on a statistical analysis of their historical relationship; such valuations generally are categorized in Level 2.

Preferred stock, repurchase agreements, and other equities traded on inactive markets or valued by reference to similar instruments are also generally categorized in Level 2.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of equity securities are similar offered quotes, and comparability adjustments. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement.

Investment companies: Securities are valued at the net asset value of the underlying portfolio. These securities are actively traded and no valuation adjustments are applied. They are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Securities lending collateral: Securities lending collateral is a money market fund which is valued at the net assets of the underlying portfolio and no valuation adjustments are applied. It is categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

Fair value measurements (continued):

Corporate bonds: The fair value of corporate bonds is estimated using various techniques, which consider recently executed transactions in securities of the issuer or comparable issuers, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, fundamental data relating to the issuer, and credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. While most corporate bonds are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, in instances where lower relative weight is placed on transaction prices, quotations, or similar observable inputs, they are categorized in Level 3.

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of corporate bonds are probability of default, and loss severity in the event of default. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower (higher) fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the assumption used for the probability of default is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the loss severity.

Asset backed securities: The fair value of asset backed securities is estimated based on models that consider the estimated cash flows of each tranche of the entity, establish a benchmark yield, and develop an estimated tranche specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, the values would generally be categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; otherwise they would be categorized as Level 3.

Short term notes: Short-term notes are valued using amortized cost, which approximates fair value. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, the values would be generally categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Government securities: Government securities are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, and reference data. Certain securities are valued by principally using dealer quotations. Government securities generally are categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

U.S. government agency securities: U.S. government agency securities are comprised of two main categories consisting of agency issued debt and mortgage pass-throughs. Generally, agency issued debt securities are valued in a manner similar to U.S. government securities. Mortgage pass-throughs include TBA securities and mortgage pass-through certificates. Generally, TBA securities and mortgage pass-throughs are valued using dealer quotations. Depending on market activity levels and whether quotations or other observable data are used, these securities are typically categorized in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Restricted securities (equity and debt): Restricted securities for which quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by TAM’s Valuation Committee under the supervision of the Board of Trustees. Restricted securities issued by publicly traded companies are generally valued at a discount to similar publicly traded securities. Restricted securities issued by nonpublic entities may be valued by reference to comparable public entities and/or fundamental data relating to the issuer. Depending on the relative significance of valuation inputs, these instruments may be classified in either Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

Derivative instruments: Listed derivatives that are actively traded are valued based on quoted prices from the exchange and are categorized in Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Over the counter (“OTC”) derivative contracts include forward, swap, option, and swaption contracts related to interest rates, foreign currencies, credit standing of reference entities, equity prices, or commodity prices. Depending on the product and the terms of the transaction, the fair value of the OTC derivative products are modeled taking into account the counterparties’ creditworthiness and using a series of techniques, including simulation models. Many pricing models do not entail material subjectivity because the methodologies employed do not necessitate significant judgments and the pricing inputs are observed from actively quoted markets, as is the case of interest rate swap and option contracts. A substantial majority of OTC derivative products valued by the Portfolios using pricing models fall into this category and are categorized within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Other: Securities for which quotations are not readily available or whose values have been determined to be unreliable are valued at fair market value as determined in good faith by TAM’s Valuation Committee under the supervision of the Portfolio’s Board of Trustees. For instances which daily market quotes are not readily available, securities may be valued, pursuant to procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees, with reference to other instruments or indices. Depending on the relative significance of valuation inputs, these instruments may be classified in either Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. When a Portfolio must use fair valuation methods that rely on significant unobservable inputs to determine a security’s value, the Valuation Committee will choose the method that is believed to accurately reflect fair market value. These securities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy.

The hierarchy classification of inputs used to value the Portfolios investments at March 31, 2012 are disclosed in the Valuation Summary of each Portfolio’s Schedule of Investments.

For assets and liabilities for which significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) were used, there is a reconciliation of the beginning to the ending balances for reported market values that presents 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. The Level 3 reconciliation, if any, is disclosed in the Valuation Summary of each respective Portfolio’s Schedule of Investments.
