PIMCO GIS Em Mkts Bd Instl GBPH 

The investment objective of the Fund is to seek to maximise total return, consistent with prudent investment management. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its assets in Fixed Income Instruments of issuers that economically are tied to countries with emerging securities markets. Such securities may be denominated in non-U.S. currencies and the USD. The Fund will consider an issuer to be economically tied to a country with an emerging securities market if (1) the issuer maintains its registered office in the country or (2) the issuer has predominant operations in the country. The average portfolio duration of this Fund will normally be within two years (plus or minus) of the JP Morgan Emerging Markets Bond Index Global (the “Index”).
