Message to Shareholders of State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust

Dear Shareholders,

Thank you for investing with State Farm Mutual Funds®. Enclosed is the Semi-Annual Report for the 6-month period ended May 31, 2020, for the State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust. We encourage your review and consideration of this entire report.

State Farm Investment Management Corp. has consistently maintained a long-term, disciplined approach to managing investment risk and providing competitive investment products that can help you, our valued shareholder, with your investment goals.1 We believe that remaining focused on your long-term goals and maintaining an appropriate asset allocation mix are important elements in pursuing investment success.2

Market Review

During the 6-month period ended May 31, 2020, the U.S. equity market experienced a negative total return, while the U.S. fixed income market was positive.

As represented by the S&P 500 Index (the “Index”) in the chart below, U.S. equities rose to a record closing-price high of 3,386 on February 19.3 The historic mark was followed by the Index sharply falling through most of March, bottoming out at 2,237 on March 23. Stocks quickly rebounded, however, and the Index finished the period at 3,044 – slightly lower than it had started (3,140) – while posting a –2.10% total return as its dividend yield was not enough to offset the negative price return.

Message to Shareholders of State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust (continued)

 

It was a tale of two markets during the time period, generally distinguished by pre-Covid-19 (December, January and February) and during Covid-19 (March, April and May). In December, equity markets continued to climb to close out the broad-based calendar year rally, supported by positive U.S. labor market data and reduced uncertainty surrounding U.S.-China trade disputes. By mid-January, the Index had marched ahead of its December closing mark. However, initial concerns over the Covid-19 outbreak in China started to slow investor optimism, spurring a brief sell-off before markets rallied again, posting several days of record highs. But selling accelerated shortly thereafter as more cases of Covid-19 surfaced, and following a short-lived rebound in early March, stocks fell dramatically as the U.S. and other countries imposed lockdowns on business and social activities. After reaching its latest all-time high on February 19, the market dropped by –34% through March 23, in the process entering bear market territory in the shortest amount of time (16 trading days) in history.

The passage of the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act at the end of March – as well as additional monetary policy measures – helped ease investors’ concerns. The Index surged into April and after a brief retreat, made an uneven climb through the month, supported by the stimulus packages and positive news related to the development of treatments and vaccines to combat Covid-19. Logging a 13% increase in April – its best monthly return since January 1987 –the Index continued its rebound in May. Amid investor optimism as economies began to reopen and progress on vaccines lifted sentiment further, U.S. equities finished May with a 4.8% gain for the month.

Among the major fixed income indices, the Bloomberg Barclays 1-5 Year Treasury Index4 and the Bloomberg Barclays 7-Year Municipal Bond Index5 posted total returns of 4.30% and 2.07%, respectively, over the 6-month period. At the start of the time period, short-term (3-month) yields were slightly below longer-term (10-year) yields, at 1.59% and 1.78%, respectively. Yields remained relatively flat for the first half of the time period before the onset of the pandemic and related lockdowns. After closing February at 1.13% – the lowest 10-year yield since the government began offering bonds in 1790 – that yield continued its freefall in March, setting multiple historic lows along the way. Likewise, the yield on the 3-month bill plunged in March, bottoming out near 0%.

The decreases were generally attributed to two key factors: An increase in demand as investors sought relative safe havens amid the market turbulence, and stimulus measures introduced by the Fed. The central bank made two emergency rate cuts in the first half of March, initially slicing rates by 0.5% to a range between 1% to 1.25%, and again by a full 1.0% to a range of 0% to 0.25% – matching the lowest level in history. Subsequently, the Fed began deploying a multi-trillion dollar stimulus effort to help stabilize markets and provide adequate access to credit during the economic downturn. Ultimately, 3-month yields finished at 0.14% while longer-term yields settled at 0.65%.6

In the municipal bond market, investment flows were positive in January and February. However, as participants reacted to the growing pandemic, a rush to cash fueled a liquidity crisis amid two consecutive weeks of outflows during March. In addition, the rising economic uncertainty led to a decline in new supply, as issuers sought to gauge the impact of mandated shutdowns and pandemic-related costs. Consequently, municipal bond prices fell during March, resulting in negative returns for the first quarter of 2020 before the municipal market regained a semblance of normalcy in April. Outflows slowed early in the month and temporarily turned positive as investors were encouraged by the federal stimulus programs and enticed by relative bargain prices. Municipal bonds ultimately rallied in May and returned to pre-pandemic levels as investors reengaged in the market, helping the asset class outperform Treasuries during May as the general municipal bond market posted its best monthly performance since 2009 and pushed the return for the Bloomberg Barclays 7-Year Municipal Bond Index back into positive territory for the time period.

Look for a detailed discussion of factors that impacted the performance of the Funds during the time frame of December 1, 2019 through November 30, 2020 in the State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust Annual Report.

On behalf of the entire State Farm Mutual Funds team, thank you for your continued business and allowing us to help serve your investment needs.

Expense Example (unaudited)

As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. The Example in the following table is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period as stated in the table below.

Actual Expenses

The first line under each Fund name in the table below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value for a Fund by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” for the applicable Fund to estimate the expenses you paid on your account for that Fund during this period. If your account has multiple Fund positions, add up the results calculated for each Fund position within your account to estimate the expenses you paid on your total account value. A potential account fee of $10 per calendar quarter is not included in the expenses shown in the table. This fee will be charged to an account (other than a SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, Archer Medical Savings Account, Tax Sheltered Account under §403(b)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code or an account held under other employer-sponsored qualified retirement plans) if the balance in the account falls below $5,000 at the close of business on the second business day of the last month of the calendar quarter, unless the account has been open for less than a year as of the second business day of the last month of the calendar quarter. You should consider any account fee you incurred when estimating the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of this fee on your ending account value. This additional fee has the effect of reducing investment returns.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line under each Fund name in the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. A potential account fee of $10 per calendar quarter is not included in the expenses shown in the table. This fee will be charged to an account (other than a SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, Archer Medical Savings Account, Tax Sheltered Account under §403(b)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code or an account held under other employer-sponsored qualified retirement plans) if the balance in the account falls below $5,000 at the close of business on the second business day of the last month of the calendar quarter, unless the account has been open for less than a year as of the second business day of the last month of the calendar quarter. You should consider any account fee that you incurred when estimating the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of this fee on your ending account value. This additional fee has the effect of increasing the costs of investing.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the second line under each Fund name in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds, including those that have transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees.

1.

Investment Objective

The State Farm Associates’ Funds Trust (the “Trust”) has four separate investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”). The Trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end, management investment company. Each Fund has its own investment objective, investment policies, restrictions, and attendant risks and is diversified as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940. Each Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification 946, “Financial Services-Investment Companies.” State Farm Investment Management Corp. (“SFIMC”) is the Trust’s investment adviser.

The State Farm Growth Fund (the “Growth Fund”) seeks long-term growth of capital which may be supplemented by income. The Growth Fund seeks to achieve this objective by investing under normal circumstances at least 80% of its assets in common stocks and other income producing equity securities.

The State Farm Balanced Fund (the “Balanced Fund”) seeks long-term growth of principal while providing some current income. The Balanced Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing under normal market conditions approximately 60% of its total assets in common stocks, and ordinarily limits its common stock investments to no more than 75% of its total assets. The Balanced Fund ordinarily invests at least 25% of its total assets in fixed income securities. The Balanced Fund invests in bonds to provide relative stability of principal and income.

The State Farm Interim Fund (the “Interim Fund”) seeks the realization over a period of years of the highest yield consistent with relatively low price volatility. The Interim Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective through investment in high quality debt securities with short and intermediate-term maturities.

The State Farm Municipal Bond Fund (the “Municipal Bond Fund”) seeks as high a rate of income exempt from federal income taxes as is consistent with prudent investment management. The Municipal Bond Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective through investment primarily in a diversified selection of municipal bonds (for example, general obligation bonds of a state or bonds financing a specific project) with maturities of one to seventeen years, although from time to time SFIMC may purchase issues with longer maturities. The Municipal Bond Fund normally invests so that either (1) at least 80% of the Fund’s net investment income is exempt from regular federal income tax or (2) at least 80% of the Fund’s net assets are invested in securities that produce income exempt from regular federal income tax.

 

2.

Significant Accounting Policies

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”).

Fund Share Valuation

Fund shares are sold and redeemed on a continuous basis at net asset value. The net asset value per share is determined daily on each day the New York Stock Exchange is open. The net asset value for each Fund is determined as of the close of regular session trading on the New York Stock Exchange (usually 3:00 p.m. Central Time). The net asset value per share is computed by dividing the total value of a Fund’s investments and other assets, less liabilities, by the number of Fund shares outstanding.

Securities Valuation

All investments in securities are recorded at their fair value. For more information see Note 3 Securities Valuation.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income

For financial reporting purposes, security transactions are accounted for on trade date (date the order to buy or sell is executed) and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis, and includes amortization of premiums and discounts on fixed income securities. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are reported on an identified cost basis.

Expenses

Expenses arising in connection with a specific Fund are allocated to that Fund. Common Trust expenses are allocated between the Funds in proportion to each Fund’s relative net assets.

Income Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders

Each Fund is a separate taxpayer for federal income tax purposes. It is the Funds’ policy to comply with the provisions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and, in the manner provided therein, to distribute substantially all of their taxable income, including any net realized gain on sales of investments, reportable for federal income tax purposes.

For more information refer to Note 4 Income Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders.

Foreign Currency Translation

Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing foreign exchange rates at May 31, 2020. Purchases and sales of investment securities and income and expense items denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the prevailing foreign exchange rates on the respective dates of transactions. That portion of realized and unrealized gains and losses on investments that results from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates is not separately disclosed, but is included with realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment securities.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Commitments and Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts on behalf of the Funds that may contain provisions for general indemnifications. Each Fund’s maximum exposure under these indemnification provisions is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against each Fund that are not known at this time. However, based on experience, the Funds believe the risk of loss from these indemnification provisions is remote.

Securities Purchased on a “When-Issued” Basis

The Municipal Bond Fund may purchase municipal bonds on a “when-issued” basis. Delivery and payment for these securities may be a month or more after the purchase date, during which time such securities are subject to market fluctuations. The Municipal Bond Fund identifies and holds specific liquid assets with a market value at least equal to the amount of the when-issued purchase commitments in order to ensure that it can meet those commitments. It is possible that the securities will never be issued and the commitment cancelled. At May 31, 2020, the Municipal Bond Fund had commitments of $3,016,286 (representing 0.42% of net assets) for when-issued securities. These commitments are included within the Securities Purchased line on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In August 2018, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-13 “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement”, which removes, modifies, and adds certain fair value disclosure requirements. The amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. At this time, the Trust’s management is evaluating the impact this pronouncement may have on the Trust’s financial statements, if any.

 

3.

Securities Valuation

Investments are valued at fair value pursuant to valuation procedures approved by the Trust’s Board of Trustees (the “Board”). The valuation procedures assign to SFIMC the responsibility for determining fair value using the processes and factors as outlined in the valuation procedures. If SFIMC cannot determine fair value based on the valuation procedures, the Board or the Executive Committee of the Board will determine fair value.

Fair value is defined as the price that the Funds would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three-tier hierarchy is used to classify fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in three broad levels as follows:

 

   

Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible to the Funds for identical assets or liabilities.

 

   

Level 2 - Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, interest rates, yield curves and credit spreads. For assets or liabilities with a specified (contractual) term, a Level 2 input must be observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

 

   

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability to the extent that relevant observable inputs are not available. These inputs, based on the best information available in the circumstances, would include reasonably available information about the assumptions that a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability and might include SFIMC’s own data.

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 greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or liability might be categorized within different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In those cases, the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement. Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers into or out of an assigned level within the fair value hierarchy. The end of the reporting period method is used for determining when transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Stocks, closed-end registered investment companies and exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) traded on securities exchanges, or in an over-the-counter (“OTC”) market in which transaction prices are reported, are valued at the last sales price on the day of valuation or, if there are no reported sales on that day, at the last reported bid price for the day. Stocks traded on NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price. Long-term debt securities, U.S. Treasury bills, and short-term municipal variable rate demand notes are generally valued using quotations provided by an independent pricing service. Short-term debt securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less (other than U.S. Treasury bills) are generally valued on an amortized cost basis, which approximates market value. Investments in open-end investment companies are valued each day based on the closing net asset value of the respective fund.

Portfolio securities that are primarily traded on foreign securities exchanges (“foreign securities”) are valued at the closing values of such securities on the respective exchange where each security is primarily traded. SFIMC may determine that a market quotation for a foreign security held by a Fund is not reliable because of events or circumstances that have occurred between the time of the market quotation and the time the net asset value of the Fund is calculated (“subsequent event”). A subsequent event might include company-specific developments, a development that might affect an entire market or region, a potential global development or a significant change in one or more U.S. securities indexes. If SFIMC determines that the market quotation for a foreign security is not reliable, SFIMC may determine the foreign security’s value in SFIMC’s reasonable judgment.

For securities other than foreign securities, for which market prices are not readily available or are considered unreliable, SFIMC is required to obtain bid price quotations from brokers or dealers in the securities. If SFIMC cannot obtain a quotation for the security or if SFIMC believes the quotation does not represent the security’s fair value, then SFIMC will determine the security’s value in SFIMC’s reasonable judgment.

In determining a value based on reasonable judgment, SFIMC may use different methodologies, including multiple of earnings, multiple of book value, discount from market of a similar freely traded security or, for debt securities, yield to maturity. Other factors SFIMC may consider in determining value for a security include, but are not limited to, fundamental analytical data relating to the security, the nature and duration of any restrictions on disposition of the security, the last traded price of the security, significant global or regional events such as political unrest, natural disasters, and war, and significant movements in major market indices, ETFs, index futures or other financial instruments in the U.S. or other markets. All securities valued based on SFIMC’s reasonable judgment are subsequently reported to the Board on a quarterly basis.

SFIMC reviews the pricing methodologies of the Funds’ approved pricing vendors, including understanding a vendor’s key inputs and assumptions in valuing securities. SFIMC also engages in transaction back-testing with respect to portfolio securities sold by the Funds to compare unrealized gains and losses to realized gains and losses.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. The following is a summary of the Fund’s fair value measurements as of the end of the reporting period:

Income Taxes and Distributions to Shareholders

As of November 30, 2019, the Trust’s management completed a review of uncertain tax positions taken by the Funds, if any, and determined that no tax liability was required for unrecognized tax benefits, and no additional disclosures were needed. Generally, the tax authorities can initiate examinations of tax returns within the three year period beginning on the date such returns are filed. As a result, some tax returns are still open and subject to examination. In addition, as of November 30, 2019, management is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change for the period ending November 30, 2019.

As of May 31, 2020, each Fund’s aggregate unrealized gains and losses for all investments based on cost for federal income tax purposes were as follows:

For each Fund, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was the same as the cost of investments reflected on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities and Schedules of Investments.

 

The Growth Fund and Balanced Fund declare and pay income dividends, if any, at least annually. The Interim Fund and Municipal Bond Fund declare dividends daily equal to each Fund’s respective net investment income, and distributions of such amounts are made on the last business day of each month.

Net realized gains on sales of investments, if any, are distributed annually after the close of the Fund’s fiscal year. Dividends and distributions payable to shareholders are recorded by the respective Fund on the ex-dividend date.

On June 25, 2020, the Growth Fund declared an ordinary income dividend of $1.04 per share to shareholders of record on June 24, 2020 (reinvestment date June 25, 2020).

On June 25, 2020, the Balanced Fund declared an ordinary income dividend of $0.86 per share to shareholders of record on June 24, 2020 (reinvestment date June 25, 2020).

After utilizing capital loss carryforwards to offset realized capital gains during the year ended November 30, 2019, the following Funds had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future capital gains realized after November 30, 2019, if any. Future capital loss carryforward utilization in any given year may be subject to Internal Revenue Code limitations. If not applied, the capital losses will carryforward indefinitely as follows:

The timing and characterization of certain income and capital gain distributions are determined annually in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to the recognition of net realized losses, the timing of Fund distributions, and foreign currency transactions. As a result, net investment income and net realized gain or loss on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ from distributions during such period. Accordingly, each Fund may periodically make reclassifications for permanent differences among certain capital accounts without impacting its net asset value.

Certain officers and/or trustees of the Trust are also officers and/or directors of SFIMC. The Trust made no payments to its officers or trustees except for trustees’ fees paid to or accrued for the Trust’s independent trustees.

Expense Reduction Agreement

SFIMC has agreed to reimburse a Fund if, and to the extent, a Fund’s total annual operating expenses (excluding taxes, interest, extraordinary litigation expenses, brokerage commissions and other portfolio transaction costs) exceed 0.40% of the Fund’s average net assets. Prior-year reimbursements, if any, are not subject to recapture.

Line of Credit

State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Company (“Auto Company”), the parent company of SFIMC, has entered into a Line of Credit Agreement with the Trust. Under that agreement, a Fund may request and Auto Company, in its complete discretion, may lend money to a Fund for up to 30 days on an unsecured basis. Auto Company will not lend more than $25 million at any one time to the Funds. Under the agreement, a Fund will pay interest to Auto Company on any outstanding loan at a benchmark interest rate that approximates the rate that creditworthy corporate issuers pay on short-term commercial paper. The Funds did not borrow under the Line of Credit Agreement during the six months ended May 31, 2020.

Principal Risks

Investing in a Fund may involve certain risks including, but not limited to, those described below. Please refer to the Funds’ prospectus and statement of additional information for more information on risks associated with investing in the Funds.

Management Risk

The assessment by the Funds’ investment adviser of the securities to be purchased or sold by a Fund may prove incorrect, resulting in losses or poor performance, even in a rising market.

Market Risk

Stock prices may fluctuate widely over short or even extended periods in response to company, market, or economic news. Stock markets also tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising stock prices and periods of falling stock prices.

Interest Rate Risk and Call Risk

The risk that the bonds a Fund holds may decline in value due to an increase in interest rates. All bonds, including those issued by the U.S. Government, are subject to interest rate risk. Bonds with longer maturities are affected more by interest rate movements than bonds with shorter maturities. Another risk associated with interest rate changes is call risk. Call risk is the risk that during periods of falling interest rates, a bond issuer will “call” or repay a higher yielding bond before the maturity date of the bond. Under these circumstances, a Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds in an investment that provides a lower yield than the called bond.

Credit Risk

The risk that a bond issuer fails to make principal or interest payments when due to a Fund, or that the credit quality of the issuer falls. Corporate bonds are subject to greater credit risk than U.S. Government bonds.

Municipal Bond Risk

Municipal securities can be significantly affected by political changes as well as uncertainties related to taxation, legislative changes or the rights of municipal security holders.

Inflation Risk

The risk that the value of the assets or income from an investment will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money.

Liquidity Risk

The investment adviser to the Funds may have difficulty selling securities a Fund holds at the time it would like to sell, and at the value a Fund has placed on those securities.

STATE FARM ASSOCIATES’ FUNDS TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Tax Risk

The Growth Fund’s and Balanced Fund’s long-term ownership strategies historically has resulted in a low rate of turnover in their portfolios. Therefore, these Funds have accumulated a large amount of unrealized capital gains, and distribution of such gains to shareholders may be larger than the capital gain distributions made by other similar mutual funds. Should the Manager sell any appreciated assets, shareholders generally will receive their proportional share of the resulting realized capital gains regardless of how long they owned such shares. As a result, unless you are purchasing shares of the Growth Fund or Balanced Fund through a tax-advantaged account (such as an IRA), buying such shares at a time when the Growth Fund or Balanced Fund has unrealized gains might eventually cost you money in taxes.

Long-term Ownership Strategy Risk

The investment approach for the Growth Fund and the Balanced Fund generally emphasizes buying and holding securities over long periods. As such, the Growth Fund or the Balanced Fund could continue to hold certain securities through adverse cycles for those securities rather than selling them, which could cause such Fund to underperform compared to a fund that has invested in similar securities but actively shifts its portfolio assets to take advantage of market opportunities and that does not seek reduced portfolio turnover. In determining which portfolio securities to sell, the Manager considers, and seeks to mitigate, the amount of capital gains that may be realized by such sale.

Income Risk

The risk that the income from the bonds a Fund holds will decline. This risk applies when a Fund invests the proceeds from new share sales, or from matured or called bonds, at market interest rates that are below the portfolio’s current earnings rate.
