On December 1, 2023, the Fund began to compare its performance to the standard pricing time of the ICE BofA 6-Month U.S. Treasury Bill Index (the “Index”). Index data prior to March 1, 2021 is for the Index’s standard pricing time of 3pm. Index data from March 1, 2021 through November 30, 2023 is for a custom 4pm pricing variant of the Index. Index returns beginning on December 1, 2023 reflect the Index’s new standard pricing time of 4pm. The change of the Index’s standard pricing time from 3pm to 4pm resulted in the discontinuation of the custom 4pm pricing variant used from March 1, 2021 through November 30, 2023.

2.
SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
The
financial
statements
are
prepared
in
conformity
with
accounting
principles
generally
accepted
in
the
United
States
of
America
(“U.S.
GAAP”),
which
may
require
management
to
make
estimates
and
assumptions
that
affect
the
reported
amounts
of
assets
and
liabilities
in
the
financial
statements,
disclosure
of
contingent
assets
and
liabilities
at
the
date
of
the
financial
statements
and
the
reported
amounts
of
increases
and
decreases
in
net
assets
from
operations
during
the
reporting
period.
Actual
results
could
differ
from
those
estimates.
The
Fund
is
considered
an
investment
company
under
U.S.
GAAP
and
follows
the
accounting
and
reporting
guidance
applicable
to
investment
companies.
Below
is
a
summary
of
significant
accounting
policies: 
Investment
Transactions
and
Income
Recognition:
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
investment
transactions
are
recorded
on
the
dates
the
transactions
are
executed.
Realized
gains
and
losses
on
investment
transactions
are
determined
using
the
specific
identification
method.
Dividend
income
and
capital
gain
distributions,
if
any,
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
dates.
Non-cash
dividends,
if
any,
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
dates
at
fair
value.
Interest
income,
including
amortization
and
accretion
of
premiums
and
discounts
on
debt
securities,
is
recognized
daily
on
an
accrual
basis.
Income,
expenses
and
realized
and
unrealized
gains
and
losses
are
allocated
daily
to
each
class
based
on
its
relative
net
assets.
Cash:
The
Fund
may
maintain
cash
at its
custodian
which,
at
times
may
exceed
United
States
federally
insured
limits.
The
Fund
may,
at
times,
have
outstanding
cash
disbursements
that
exceed
deposited
cash
amounts
at
the
custodian
during
the
reporting
period.
The
Fund is
obligated
to
repay
the
custodian
for
any
overdraft,
including
any
related
costs
or
expenses,
where
applicable.
For
financial
reporting
purposes,
overdraft
fees,
if
any,
are
included
in
interest
expense
in
the
Statement
of
Operations.
Distributions: 
Distributions
from
net
investment
income
are
declared daily
and
paid
monthly.
Distributions
of
capital
gains
are
recorded
on
the
ex-dividend
dates
and
made
at
least
annually.
The
character
and
timing
of
distributions
are
determined
in
accordance
with
U.S.
federal
income
tax
regulations,
which
may
differ
from
U.S.
GAAP.
Indemnifications:
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Fund
enters
into
contracts
that
contain
a
variety
of
representations
that
provide
general
indemnification.
The
Fund’s
maximum
exposure
under
these
arrangements
is
unknown
because
it
involves
future
potential
claims
against
the
Fund,
which
cannot
be
predicted
with
any
certainty.
Other:
Expenses
directly
related
to the
Fund
or
its
classes
are
charged
to
the
Fund
or
the
applicable
class.
Expenses
directly
related
to
the
Fund
and
other
shared
expenses
prorated
to
the
Fund
are
allocated
daily
to
each
class
based
on
its
relative
net
assets
or
other
appropriate
methods.
Other
operating
expenses
shared
by
several
funds,
including
other
funds
managed
by
the
Manager,
are
prorated
among
those
funds
on
the
basis
of
relative
net
assets
or
other
appropriate
methods.  
3.
INVESTMENT
VALUATION
AND
FAIR
VALUE
MEASUREMENTS 
Investment
Valuation
Policies:
 The
Fund’s
investments
are
valued
at
fair
value
(also
referred
to
as
“market
value”
within
the
financial
statements)
each
day
that
the
Fund
is
open
for
business
and,
for
financial
reporting
purposes,
as
of
the
report
date.
U.S.
GAAP
defines
fair
value
as
the
price
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.
The
Board
of
Trustees
of
the
Trust
(the
“Board”)
has
approved
the
designation
of
the
Fund’s
Manager
as
the
valuation
designee
for
the
Fund.
The
Fund
determines
the
fair
values
of
its
financial
instruments
using
various
independent
dealers
or
pricing
services
under
the
Manager’s
policies.
If
a
security’s
market
price
is
not
readily
available
or
does
not
otherwise
accurately
represent
the
fair
value
of
the
security,
the
security
will
be
valued
in
accordance
with
the
Manager’s
policies
and
procedures
as
reflecting
fair
value.
The
Manager
has
formed
a
committee
(the
“Valuation
Committee”)
to
develop
pricing
policies
and
procedures
and
to
oversee
the
pricing
function
for
all
financial
instruments,
with
assistance
from
other
BlackRock
pricing
committees.
Fair
Value
Inputs
and
Methodologies:
The
following
methods
and
inputs
are
used
to
establish
the
fair
value
of
the
Fund’s
assets
and
liabilities: 
Fixed-income investments
for
which
market
quotations
are
readily
available
are
generally
valued
using
the
last
available
bid
price
or
current
market
quotations
provided
by
independent
dealers
or
third-party
pricing
services.  Pricing
services
generally
value
fixed-income
securities
assuming
orderly
transactions
of
an
institutional
round
lot
size,
but
a
fund
may
hold
or
transact
in
such
securities
in
smaller,
odd
lot
sizes.
Odd
lots
may
trade
at
lower
prices
than
institutional
round
lots.
The
pricing
services
may
use
matrix
pricing
or
valuation
models
that
utilize
certain
inputs
and
assumptions
to
derive
values,
including
transaction
data
(e.g.,
recent
representative
bids

offers),
market
data, credit
quality
information,
perceived
market
movements,
news,
and
other
relevant
information.
Certain
fixed-income
securities,
including
asset-
backed
and
mortgage
related
securities
may
be
valued
based
on
valuation
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.
The
amortized
cost
method
of
valuation
may
be
used
with
respect
to
debt
obligations
with
sixty
days
or
less
remaining
to
maturity
unless
the
Manager
determines
such
method
does
not
represent
fair
value.
Repurchase
agreements
are
valued
at
amortized
cost,
which
approximates
market
value. 
If
events
(e.g.,
market
volatility,
company
announcement or
a
natural
disaster)
occur
that
are
expected
to
materially
affect
the
value
of
such
investment,
or
in
the
event
that application
of
these
methods
of
valuation
results
in
a
price
for
an
investment
that
is
deemed
not
to
be
representative
of
the
market
value
of
such
investment,
or
if
a
price
is
not
available,
the
investment
will
be
valued
by
the
Valuation
Committee
in
accordance
with the
Manager's policies
and
procedures
as
reflecting
fair
value
(“Fair
Valued
Investments”).
The
fair
valuation
approaches
that
may
be
used
by
the
Valuation
Committee include
market
approach,
income
approach
and
cost
approach.
Valuation
techniques
such
as
discounted
cash
flow,
use
of
market
comparables
and
matrix
pricing
are
types
of
valuation
approaches
and
are
typically
used
in
determining
fair
value.
When
determining
the
price
for
Fair
Valued
Investments,
the
Valuation
Committee
seeks
to
determine
the
price
that
the
Fund
might
reasonably
expect
to
receive
or
pay
from
the
current
sale
or
purchase
of
that
asset
or
liability
in
an
arm’s-length
transaction.
Fair
value
determinations
shall
be
based
upon
all
available
factors
that
the
Valuation
Committee
deems
relevant
and
consistent
with
the
principles
of
fair
value
measurement
as
of
the
measurement
date.
Fair
Value
Hierarchy:
Various
inputs
are
used
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments
at
the
measurement
date.
These
inputs
to
valuation
techniques
are
categorized
into
a
fair
value
hierarchy
consisting
of
three
broad
levels
for
financial reporting purposes
as
follows: 
Level
1
Unadjusted
price
quotations
in
active
markets/exchanges
that
the
Fund
has
the
ability
to
access
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;
and
Level
3 —
Inputs
that
are
unobservable
and
significant
to
the
entire
fair
value
measurement
for the
asset
or
liability
(including
the
Valuation
Committee’s
assumptions
used
in
determining
the
fair
value
of
financial
instruments).
The
hierarchy
gives
the
highest
priority
to
unadjusted
quoted
prices
in
active
markets
for
identical
assets
or
liabilities
(Level
1
measurements)
and
the
lowest
priority
to
unobservable
inputs
(Level
3
measurements).
Accordingly,
the
degree
of
judgment
exercised
in
determining
fair
value
is
greatest
for
instruments
categorized
in
Level
3.
The
inputs
used
to
measure
fair
value
may
fall
into
different
levels
of
the
fair
value
hierarchy.
In
such
cases,
for
disclosure
purposes,
the
fair
value
hierarchy
classification
is
determined
based
on
the
lowest
level
input
that
is
significant
to
the
fair
value
measurement
in
its
entirety. Investments
classified
within
Level
3
have
significant
unobservable
inputs
used
by
the
Valuation
Committee
in
determining
the
price
for
Fair
Valued
Investments.
Level
3
investments
include
equity
or
debt
issued
by
privately
held
companies
or
funds
that
may
not
have
a
secondary
market
and/or
may
have
a
limited
number
of
investors.
The
categorization
of
a
value
determined
for
financial
instruments
is
based
on
the
pricing
transparency
of
the financial
instruments
and
is
not
necessarily
an
indication
of
the
risks
associated
with
investing
in
those
securities.

Asset-Backed
and
Mortgage-Backed
Securities:
Asset-backed
securities
are
generally
issued
as
pass-through
certificates
or
as
debt
instruments.
Asset-backed
securities
issued
as
pass-through
certificates
represent
undivided
fractional
ownership
interests
in
an
underlying
pool
of
assets.
Asset-backed
securities
issued
as
debt
instruments,
which
are
also
known
as
collateralized
obligations,
are
typically
issued
as
the
debt
of
a
special
purpose
entity
organized
solely
for
the
purpose
of
owning
such
assets
and
issuing
such
debt.
Asset-backed
securities
are
often
backed
by
a
pool
of
assets
representing
the
obligations
of
a
number
of
different
parties.
The
yield
characteristics
of
certain
asset-backed
securities
may
differ
from
traditional
debt
securities.
One
such
major
difference
is
that
all
or
a
principal
part
of
the
obligations
may
be
prepaid
at
any
time
because
the
underlying
assets
(i.e.,
loans)
may
be
prepaid
at
any
time.
As
a
result,
a
decrease
in
interest
rates
in
the
market
may
result
in
increases
in
the
level
of
prepayments
as
borrowers,
particularly
mortgagors,
refinance
and
repay
their
loans.
An
increased
prepayment
rate
with
respect
to
an
asset-backed
security
will
have
the
effect
of
shortening
the
maturity
of
the
security.
In
addition,
a
fund
may
subsequently
have
to
reinvest
the
proceeds
at
lower
interest
rates.
If
a
fund
has
purchased
such
an
asset-backed
security
at
a
premium,
a
faster
than
anticipated
prepayment
rate
could
result
in
a
loss
of
principal
to
the
extent
of
the
premium
paid. 
For
mortgage
pass-through
securities
(the
“Mortgage
Assets”)
there
are
a
number
of
important
differences
among
the
agencies
and
instrumentalities
of
the
U.S.
Government
that
issue
mortgage-related
securities
and
among
the
securities
that
they
issue.
For
example,
mortgage-related
securities
guaranteed
by
Ginnie
Mae
are
guaranteed
as
to
the
timely
payment
of
principal
and
interest
by
Ginnie
Mae
and
such
guarantee
is
backed
by
the
full
faith
and
credit
of
the
United
States.
However,
mortgage-related
securities
issued
by
Freddie
Mac
and
Fannie
Mae,
including
Freddie
Mac
and
Fannie
Mae
guaranteed
mortgage
pass-through
certificates,
which
are
solely
the
obligations
of
Freddie
Mac
and
Fannie
Mae,
are
not
backed
by
or
entitled
to
the
full
faith
and
credit
of
the
United
States,
but
are
supported
by
the
right
of
the
issuer
to
borrow
from
the
U.S.
Treasury. 
Non-agency
mortgage-backed
securities
are
securities
issued
by
non-governmental
issuers
and
have
no
direct
or
indirect
government
guarantees
of
payment
and
are
subject
to
various
risks.
Non-agency
mortgage
loans
are
obligations
of
the
borrowers
thereunder
only
and
are
not
typically
insured
or
guaranteed
by
any
other
person
or
entity.
The
ability
of
a
borrower
to
repay
a
loan
is
dependent
upon
the
income
or
assets
of
the
borrower.
A
number
of
factors,
including
a
general
economic
downturn,
acts
of
God,
terrorism,
social
unrest
and
civil
disturbances,
may
impair
a
borrower’s
ability
to
repay
its
loans.
Repurchase
Agreements:
Repurchase
agreements
are
commitments
to
purchase
a
security
from
a
counterparty
who
agrees
to
repurchase
the
same
security
at
a
mutually
agreed
upon
date
and
price.
On
a
daily
basis,
the
counterparty
is
required
to
maintain
collateral
subject
to
the
agreement
and
in
value
no
less
than
the
agreed
upon
repurchase
amount.
Repurchase
agreements
may
be
traded
bilaterally,
in
a
tri-party
arrangement
or
may
be
centrally
cleared
through
a
sponsoring
agent.
Subject
to
the
custodial
undertaking
associated
with
a
tri-party
repurchase
arrangement
and
for
centrally
cleared
repurchase
agreements,
a
third-party
custodian
maintains
accounts
to
hold
collateral
for a
fund
and
its
counterparties.
Typically,
a
fund
and
counterparty
are
not
permitted
to
sell,
re-pledge
or
use
the
collateral
absent
a
default
by
the
counterparty
or the
fund,
respectively. 
In
the
event
the
counterparty
defaults
and
the
fair
value
of
the
collateral
declines, a
fund
could
experience
losses,
delays
and
costs
in
liquidating
the
collateral.

Notes

Financial

Repurchase
agreements
are
entered
into
by a
fund
under
Master
Repurchase
Agreements
(each,
an
“MRA”).
The
MRA
permits the
fund,
under
certain
circumstances
including
an
event
of
default
(such
as
bankruptcy
or
insolvency),
to
offset
payables
and/or
receivables
with
collateral
held
by
and/or
posted
to
the
counterparty.
As
a
result,
one
single
net
payment
is
created.
Bankruptcy
or
insolvency
laws
of
a
particular
jurisdiction
may
impose
restrictions
on
or
prohibitions
against
such
a
right
of
offset
in
the
event
of
the
MRA
counterparty’s
bankruptcy
or
insolvency.
Based
on
the
terms
of
the
MRA, the
fund
receives
collateral
with
a
market
value
in
excess
of
the
repurchase
price
at
maturity.
Upon
a
bankruptcy
or
insolvency
of
the
MRA
counterparty,
the
fund
would
recognize
a
liability
with
respect
to
such
excess
collateral.
The
liability
reflects
the
fund’s
obligation
under
bankruptcy
law
to
return
the
excess
to
the
counterparty.

Interfund
Lending:
In
accordance
with
an
exemptive
order
(the
“Order”)
from
the
U.S.
Securities
and
Exchange
Commission
(“SEC”),
the
Fund
may
participate
in
a
joint
lending
and
borrowing
facility
for
temporary
purposes
(the
“Interfund
Lending
Program”),
subject
to
compliance
with
the
terms
and
conditions
of
the
Order,
and
to
the
extent
permitted
by
the
Fund’s
investment
policies
and
restrictions.
The
Fund
is
currently
permitted
to
borrow
and
lend
under
the
Interfund
Lending
Program.
A
lending
BlackRock
fund
may
lend
in
aggregate
up
to
15%
of
its
net
assets
but
may
not
lend
more
than
5%
of
its
net
assets
to
any
one
borrowing
fund
through
the
Interfund
Lending
Program.
A
borrowing
BlackRock
fund
may
not
borrow
through
the
Interfund
Lending
Program
or
from
any
other
source
more
than
33
1/3%
of
its
total
assets
(or
any
lower
threshold
provided
for
by
the fund’s
investment
restrictions).
If
a
borrowing
BlackRock
fund’s
total
outstanding
borrowings
exceed
10%
of
its
total
assets,
each
of
its
outstanding
interfund
loans
will
be
subject
to
collateralization
of
at
least
102%
of
the
outstanding
principal
value
of
the
loan.
All
interfund
loans
are
for
temporary
or
emergency
purposes
and
the
interest
rate
to
be
charged
will
be
the
average
of
the
highest
current
overnight
repurchase
agreement
rate
available
to
a
lending
fund
and
the
bank
loan
rate,
as
calculated
according

INCOME
TAX
INFORMATION 
It
is
the
Fund’s
policy
to
comply
with
the
requirements
of
the
Internal
Revenue
Code
of
1986,
as
amended,
applicable
to
regulated
investment
companies,
and
to
distribute
substantially
all
of
its
taxable
income
to
its
shareholders.
Therefore,
no
U.S.
federal
income
tax
provision
is
required. 
The
Fund
files
U.S.
federal
and
various
state
and
local
tax
returns.
No
income
tax
returns
are
currently
under
examination.
The
statute
of
limitations
on
the
Fund’s
U.S.
federal
tax
returns
generally
remains
open
for
a
period
of
three
years
after
they
are
filed.
The
statutes
of
limitations
on
the
Fund’s
state
and
local
tax
returns
may
remain
open
for
an
additional
year
depending
upon
the
jurisdiction. 
Management
has
analyzed
tax
laws
and
regulations
and
their
application
to
the Fund
as
of
January
31,
2025,
inclusive
of
the
open
tax
return
years,
and
does
not
believe
that
there
are
any
uncertain
tax
positions
that
require
recognition
of
a
tax
liability
in
the
Fund’s
financial
statements.
Management’s
analysis
is
based
on
the
tax
laws
and
judicial
and
administrative
interpretations
thereof
in
effect
as
of
date
of
these
financial
statements,
all
of
which
are
subject
to
change,
possibly
with
retroactive
effect
which
may
impact
the
Fund's
NAV.
As
of
July
31,
2024, the Fund
had
non-expiring
capital
loss
carryforwards
available
to
offset
future
realized
capital
gains of
$12,226,269. 
As
of
January
31,
2025, gross
unrealized
appreciation
and
depreciation
based
on
cost
of
investments
(including
short
positions
and
derivatives,
if
any)
for
U.S.
federal
income
tax
purposes
were
as
follows:

BANK
BORROWINGS 
The
Trust,
on
behalf
of
the
Fund,
along
with
certain
other
funds
managed
by
the
Manager
and
its
affiliates
(“Participating
Funds”), is
party
to
a
364-day,
$2.40
billion
credit
agreement
with
a
group
of
lenders.
Under
this
agreement,
the
Fund
may
borrow
to
fund
shareholder
redemptions.
Excluding
commitments
designated
for
certain
individual
funds,
the
Participating
Funds,
including
the
Fund,
can
borrow
up
to
an
aggregate
commitment
amount
of
$1.75
billion
at
any
time
outstanding,
subject
to
asset
coverage
and
other
limitations
as
specified
in
the
agreement.
The
credit
agreement
has
the
following
terms:
a
fee
of
0.10%
per
annum
on
unused
commitment
amounts
and
interest
at
a
rate
equal
to
the
higher
of
(a)
Overnight
Bank
Funding
Rate
(“OBFR”)
(but,
in
any
event,
not
less
than
0.00%)
on
the
date
the
loan
is
made
plus
0.80%
per
annum,
(b)
the
Fed
Funds
rate
(but,
in
any
event,
not
less
than
0.00%)
in
effect
from
time
to
time
plus
0.80%
per
annum
on
amounts
borrowed
or
(c)
the
sum
of
(x)
Daily
Simple
Secured
Overnight
Financing
Rate
(“SOFR”)
(but,
in
any
event,
not
less
than
0.00%)
on
the
date
the
loan
is
made
plus
0.10%
and
(y)
0.80%
per
annum. The
agreement
expires
in
April
2025
unless
extended
or
renewed. These
fees
were
allocated
among
such
funds
based
upon
portions
of
the
aggregate
commitment
available
to
them
and
relative
net
assets
of
Participating
Funds.
During
the
six
months ended
January
31,
2025,
the
Fund
did
not
borrow
under
the
credit
agreement.

 PRINCIPAL
RISKS 
In
the
normal
course
of
business,
the
Fund
invests
in
securities
or
other
instruments
and
may
enter
into
certain
transactions,
and
such
activities
subject
the
Fund
to
various
risks,
including
among
others,
fluctuations
in
the
market
(market
risk)
or
failure
of
an
issuer
to
meet
all
of
its
obligations.
The
value
of
securities
or
other
instruments
may
also
be
affected
by
various
factors,
including,
without
limitation:
(i)
the
general
economy;
(ii)
the
overall
market
as
well
as
local,
regional
or
global
political
and/or
social
instability;
(iii)
regulation,
taxation
or
international
tax
treaties
between
various
countries;
or
(iv)
currency,
interest
rate
and
price
fluctuations.
Local,
regional
or
global
events
such
as
war,
acts
of
terrorism,
the
spread
of
infectious
illness
or
other
public
health
issues,
recessions,
or
other
events
could
have
a
significant
impact
on
the
Fund
and its
investments.
The
Fund’s
prospectus
provides
details
of
the
risks
to
which
the
Fund
is
subject. 
Market Risk:
The
Fund
may
be
exposed
to
prepayment
risk,
which
is
the
risk
that
borrowers
may
exercise
their
option
to
prepay
principal
earlier
than
scheduled
during
periods
of
declining
interest
rates,
which
would
force
the
Fund
to
reinvest
in
lower
yielding
securities. The
Fund
may
also
be
exposed
to
reinvestment
risk,
which
is
the
risk
that
income
from
the
Fund’s
portfolio
will
decline
if
the Fund
invests
the
proceeds
from
matured,
traded
or
called
fixed-income
securities
at
market
interest
rates
that
are
below
the
Fund
portfolio’s
current
earnings
rate.
Municipal
securities
are
subject
to
the
risk
that
litigation,
legislation
or
other
political
events,
local
business
or
economic
conditions,
credit
rating
downgrades,
or
the
bankruptcy
of
the
issuer
could
have
a
significant
effect
on
an
issuer’s
ability
to
make
payments
of
principal
and/or
interest
or
otherwise
affect
the
value
of
such
securities.
Municipal
securities
can
be
significantly
affected
by
political
or
economic
changes,
including
changes
made
in
the
law
after
issuance
of
the
securities,
as
well
as
uncertainties
in
the
municipal
market
related
to,
taxation,
legislative
changes
or
the
rights
of
municipal
security
holders,
including
in
connection
with
an
issuer
insolvency.
Municipal
securities
backed
by
current
or
anticipated
revenues
from
a
specific
project
or
specific
assets
can
be
negatively
affected
by
the
discontinuance
of
the

the
project
or

or
the
inability
to
collect
revenues
for
the
project
or
from
the
assets.
Municipal
securities
may
be
less
liquid
than
taxable
bonds,
and
there
may
be
less
publicly
available
information
on
the
financial
condition
of
municipal
security
issuers
than
for
issuers
of
other
securities.
Counterparty
Credit
Risk:
The
Fund
may
be
exposed
to
counterparty
credit
risk,
or
the
risk
that
an
entity
may
fail
to
or
be
unable
to
perform
on
its
commitments
related
to
unsettled
or
open
transactions,
including
making
timely
interest
and/or
principal
payments
or
otherwise
honoring
its
obligations.
The
Fund
manages
counterparty
credit
risk
by
entering
into
transactions
only
with
counterparties
that
the
Manager
believes
have
the
financial
resources
to
honor
their
obligations
and
by
monitoring
the
financial
stability
of
those
counterparties.
Financial
assets,
which
potentially
expose
the
Fund
to
market,
issuer
and
counterparty
credit
risks,
consist
principally
of
financial
instruments
and
receivables
due
from
counterparties.
The
extent
of
the
Fund’s
exposure
to
market,
issuer
and
counterparty
credit
risks
with
respect
to
these
financial
assets
is
approximately
their
value
recorded
in
the
Statement
of
Assets
and
Liabilities,
less
any
collateral
held
by
the
Fund. 
Geographic/Asset
Class
Risk:
 A
diversified
portfolio,
where
this
is appropriate
and
consistent
with
a
fund’s
objectives,
minimizes
the
risk
that
a
price
change
of
a
particular
investment
will
have
a
material
impact
on
the
NAV
of
a
fund.
The
investment
concentrations
within
the
Fund’s
portfolio
are
disclosed
in
its Schedule
of
Investments.
The
Fund
invests
a
significant
portion
of
its
assets
in fixed-income securities and/or uses
derivatives tied
to
the
fixed-income
markets.
Changes
in
market
interest
rates
or
economic
conditions
may affect
the
value
and/or
liquidity
of
such investments.
Interest
rate
risk
is
the
risk
that
prices
of
bonds
and
other
fixed-income
securities
will
decrease
as
interest
rates
rise
and
increase
as
interest
rates
fall.
The
Fund
may
be
subject
to
a
greater
risk
of
rising
interest
rates
during
a
period
of
historically
low
interest
rates.
Changing
interest
rates
may
have
unpredictable
effects
on
markets,
may
result
in
heightened
market
volatility,
and
could
negatively
impact
the
Fund’s
performance.
The
Fund
invests
a
significant
portion
of
its
assets
in
securities
of
issuers
located
in
the
United
States.
A
decrease
in
imports
or
exports,
changes
in
trade
regulations,
inflation
and/or
an
economic
recession
in
the
United
States
may
have
a
material
adverse
effect
on
the
U.S.
economy
and
the
securities
listed
on
U.S.
exchanges.
Proposed
and
adopted
policy
and
legislative
changes
in
the
United
States
may
also
have
a
significant
effect
on
U.S.
markets
generally,
as
well
as
on
the
value
of
certain
securities.
Governmental
agencies
project
that
the
United
States
will
continue
to
maintain
elevated
public
debt
levels
for
the
foreseeable
future
which
may
constrain
future
economic
growth.
Circumstances
could
arise
that
could
prevent
the
timely
payment
of
interest
or
principal
on
U.S.
government
debt,
such
as
reaching
the
legislative
“debt
ceiling.”
Such
non-payment
would
result
in
substantial
negative
consequences
for
the
U.S.
economy
and
the
global
financial
system.
If
U.S.
relations
with
certain
countries
deteriorate,
it
could
adversely
affect
issuers
that
rely
on
the
United
States
for
trade.
The
United
States
has
also
experienced
increased
internal
unrest
and
discord.
If
these
trends
were
to
continue,
they
may
have
an
adverse
impact
on
the
U.S.
economy
and
the
issuers
in
which
the
Fund
invests.
As
of
period
end,
the
Fund’s
investments
had
the
following
industry
classifications:
Certain
Funds
invest
a
significant
portion
of
their
assets
within
the
financials
sector.
Performance
of
companies
in
the
financials
sector
may
be
adversely
impacted
by
many
factors,
including,
among
others,
changes
in
government
regulations,
economic
conditions,
and
interest
rates,
credit
rating
downgrades,
adverse
public
perception,
exposure
concentration
and
decreased
liquidity
in
credit
markets.
The
impact
of
changes
in
capital
requirements
and
recent
or
future
regulation
on
any
individual
financial
company,
or
on
the
financials
sector
as
a
whole,
cannot
be
predicted,
but
may
negatively
impact
the
Funds.
Significant
Shareholder
Redemption
Risk:
Certain
shareholders
may
own
or
manage
a
substantial
amount
of
fund
shares
and/or
hold
their
fund
investments
for
a
limited
period
of
time.
Large
redemptions
of
fund
shares
by
these
shareholders
may
force
a
fund
to
sell
portfolio
securities,
which
may
negatively
impact
the
fund’s
NAV,
increase
the
fund’s
brokerage
costs,
and/or
accelerate
the
realization
of
taxable
income/gains
and
cause
the
fund
to
make
additional
taxable
distributions
to
shareholders.
