Resources

Performance is available on a daily, monthly, and quarterly basis. Monthly and quarterly performance shows standardized performance that reflects the maximum deduction of all expenses within the product and two versions of non-standardized performance: "best-case" performance that reflects the deduction of some expenses, but not all possible expenses from the performance returns, and a "worst case" performance that reflects the deduction of all expenses (non-standardized performance is calculated from the inception date of the underlying investment option). The daily performance reflects non-standardized performance due to timeframe rather than reflecting the maximum deduction of all expenses within the product. Once on a product's performance page, click on the fund or investment option name to access the Prospectus and Lipper Fact Sheets for that fund.

Mutual fund shares are at Net Asset Value (NAV). If the sales loads were reflected in the accompanying performance data, it would reduce the quoted performance.
