Oakmark Bond Fd USD Class INST (OANCX) Exchange: NMFQS

The Fund invests primarily in a diversified portfolio of bonds and other fixed-income securities.  These include, but are not limited to, investment grade corporate bonds; U.S. or non-U.S.-government and government-related obligations (such as, U.S. treasury securities); below investment-grade corporate bonds; agency mortgage backed-securities; commercial mortgage- and asset-backed securities; senior loans (such as, leveraged loans, bank loans, covenant lite loans, and/or floating rate loans); assignments; restricted securities (e.g., Rule 144A securities); and other fixed and floating rate instruments.  Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings made for investment purposes) in bonds and other fixed-income securities, and other investments that the Adviser believes have similar economic characteristics, including other investment companies that provide investment exposure to such securities. Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 25% of its assets in investment-grade fixed-income securities and may invest up to 35% of its assets in below investment-grade fixed-income securities (commonly known as “high-yield” or “junk bonds”).  The Fund considers fixed-income securities to be investment-grade if, at the time of investment, they are rated Baa3 or higher by Moody’s Investors Service (“Moody’s”), BBB- or higher by S&P Global Ratings (“S&P”) or Fitch Ratings, or equivalently rated by any other nationally recognized statistical rating organization (“NRSRO”), or, if unrated, deemed to be of comparable quality by the Adviser.  The Fund considers fixed-income securities to be below investment-grade if, at the time of investment, they are rated Ba1 or lower by Moody’s, BB+ or lower by S&P, or equivalently rated by any NRSRO, or, if unrated, determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. Only one rating is required and if a security is split rated, the Adviser assigns the lowest rating. The Fund invests in senior loans that are typically rated below investment-grade and to bear interest at a floating rate that periodically resets. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its net assets in defaulted corporate securities. In seeking to achieve the objectives of the Fund, the Adviser may purchase securities on a when-issued basis and purchase or sell delayed-delivery securities.   In addition, the Fund may invest in fixed income securities structured as fixed rate debt; floating rate debt; and debt that may not pay interest at the time of issuance. The Fund may also invest in inverse floaters, as well as interest-only and principal-only securities. The Fund will prioritize differentiation through bottom-up, single-security selection across the major fixed income asset classes with a secondary focus on top-down asset allocation and interest rate and duration management.  When selecting individual securities, the Adviser uses a bottom-up approach and seeks relative price appreciation by selecting securities the Adviser believes to be undervalued based on research and fundamental analysis and by making gradual adjustment in the average duration of the Fund’s portfolio.   The Adviser’s investment strategy is a bottom-up process that first looks for opportunities by focusing on an individual issuer’s default risk pricing and then incorporates top-down considerations such as interest rate forecasting, curve selection, and other macros factors. The Adviser utilizes an investment approach that considers a quantitative valuation model combined with a qualitative ratings framework.  The Fund’s portfolio selection process uses a ranking  structure with a defined “buy” and “sell” discipline that allocates investments among a list of approved issuers and considers an individual investment’s risk reward profile, legal structure, and/or downside risk, among other factors.  The Adviser actively manages the portfolio’s asset class exposure using a top-down view of sector fundamentals.  The Adviser rotates Fund portfolio assets among sectors in various markets in an effort to maximize return. Under normal market conditions, the Adviser seeks to maintain an investment portfolio with a weighted average effective duration of no less than two years and no more than eight years. The duration of the Fund’s portfolio may vary materially from its target, from time to time, and there is no assurance that the duration of the Fund’s portfolio will meet its target. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in equity securities, such as common stocks and preferred stocks.  The Fund may also hold cash or short-term debt securities from time to time and for temporary defensive purposes. The Fund may invest in derivative instruments, such as futures, forwards (including forward foreign currency contracts), and swap agreements (including credit default swaps, interest rate swaps, and total return swaps), for a variety of purposes, including, but not limited to, managing the Fund’s duration or its exposure to fixed income securities with different maturities, currencies, interest rates, individual issuers, or sectors. In deciding which fixed income securities to buy and sell, the Adviser attempts to emphasize securities issued by companies with strong fundamentals and relatively limited anticipated volatility.  These securities are selected with the same bottom-up investment process that underpins all of the Oakmark funds.  The Fund uses a value investment philosophy in selecting its securities.  This value investment philosophy, in the context of fixed-income securities, is based upon the belief that, over time, a company’s credit default risk will converge with the Adviser’s estimate of the credit default risk associated with a company’s intrinsic value.  By “intrinsic value,” the Adviser means its estimate of the value a knowledgeable buyer would pay to acquire the entire business.  The Adviser believes that investing in securities that have credit risk priced significantly below what it believes the company’s intrinsic value implies, allows the best opportunity to achieve the Fund’s investment objective. In an effort to achieve its goal, the Fund may engage in active and frequent trading.  The Fund’s investment objective may be changed without shareholder approval.  The Fund will not alter its policy to invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus borrowings made for investment purposes) in bonds and other fixed-income securities, and other investments that the Adviser believes have similar economic characteristics, including other investment companies that provide investment exposure to such securities, without providing shareholders at least 60 days’ notice.  This test is applied at the time the Fund invests; later percentage changes caused by a change in Fund assets, market values or company circumstances will not require the Fund to dispose of a holding.
