Allocations are reported as of the date a security transaction is initiated; however, certain transactions may not settle until several days later. Accordingly, cash may appear as a negative allocation as a result of forward-settling instruments such as currency forwards, certain mortgage-backed securities, and U.S. treasury futures. "Other" may include municipal bonds and non-index holdings.

Ratings (other than U.S. Treasury securities or securities issued or backed by U.S. agencies) provided by Standard & Poor's, Moody's, and Fitch. For certain securities that are not rated by any of these three agencies, credit ratings from other agencies may be used. Where the rating agencies rate a security differently, Lord Abbett uses the average rating based on numeric values assigned to each rating. Breakdown is not an S&P credit rating or an opinion of S&P as to the creditworthiness of such portfolio.
