## Frequently Asked Questions

### What does GTOQ invest in?

IHYF operates as an actively managed fund, employing a systematic, factor-based investment strategy. Its primary objective is to identify fixed-income securities that the Sub-adviser believes offer superior risk-adjusted returns compared to other bonds, based on quantifiable issuer characteristics. This approach typically leads to a higher allocation towards bonds exhibiting strong value, low volatility, or high carry potential. The portfolio managers have the flexibility to adapt, introduce, or modify these underlying factors as they deem appropriate to mitigate specific investment risks. In addition to core bond holdings, the fund may also allocate to various other instruments, within specified limits, including U.S. Treasuries, collateralized debt obligations (CDOs), and distressed bonds. It's important to note that market movements can cause the fund's asset allocation to deviate from its intended limits. A significant aspect of the strategy is its emphasis on derivatives, such as options, futures, forward contracts, swaps, and certain mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. This extensive use of derivatives is primarily for hedging purposes, aiming to protect the portfolio against key investment risks like interest rate fluctuations and adverse foreign currency movements.

### What is the credit quality of GTOQ?

### What is the yield to maturity of GTOQ?

Yield to maturity (YTM) is the total return you'd earn from GTOQ if every bond in the portfolio is held to maturity at the current price.

### Why does GTOQ cost more than a fund like VOO?

GTOQ is actively managed (current expense ratio 0.39%). Active funds charge more than passive index trackers in exchange for the manager's discretion to over- or under-weight positions. The Cost Verdict card above tells you whether GTOQ's fee is competitive for the active-management cohort.
