Past investment results are not indicative of future investment results. Returns for periods greater than one year are annualized. Gross-of-fees returns are presented before management fees, but after all trading expenses. Net-of-fees results are calculated using a model approach whereby the current highest tier of the appropriate strategy's fee schedule is used. Effective January 1, 2020, for annual periods where the actual account weighted fees are higher than the composite model fee, the actual account weighted fees will be used for the net-of-fee composite return calculations. Net-of-fee composite return calculations using actual account weighted fees may include fund returns that incur higher fees than those applied to separately managed accounts. Please see the Performance and Risk Disclosures for more information.
