Cash Reserve
Product Description
An actively-managed portfolio constructed using the full range of domestic short-maturity investment grade fixed income securities. Invests in U.S. government and agencies securities, as well as high quality corporate debt and asset-backed securities. The portfolio is designed to extract the term and liquidity premium that is inherent in the short-maturity yield curve. Duration is typically in line with the benchmark.

Risk Management
Portfolio risk is systematically measured and budgeted
across all portfolio decisions (credit, yield curve, duration, liquidity,
etc.) based on our forecast confidence, return and risk expectations,
and experience. No single decision dominates the contribution to
risk or return. To maintain liquidity, we invest in the deepest
and most liquid sectors of the short-maturity fixed income markets.
