About Performance
The performance data presented represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Total returns include reinvestment of dividends and distributions. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data presented. Performance data current to the most recent month end is available on the product detail page for each Fund. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate with market conditions. The value of an investment in the Fund, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than its original purchase cost.
Net and Gross Expense Ratios
For MWCIX the total expense ratio is 2.60%, and the net expense ratio is 0.75%. Expenses reflect a contractual agreement by the Adviser to reduce its fees and/or absorb certain expenses until July 31, 2013, unless terminated earlier by the Board of Trustees. For more information about fees and expenses, please read the prospectus.
About the Index or Indices
BofA Merrill Lynch 3-Month LIBOR Average Index – represents a high-quality base rate for 3-month constant maturity dollar denominated deposits. The index is not available for direct investment; therefore its performance does not reflect a reduction for fees or expenses incurred in managing a portfolio. The securities in the index may be substantially different from those in the Fund.
A Word About Risk
Fixed income investments entail interest rate risk, the risk of issuer default, issuer credit risk, and price volatility risk. Funds investing in bonds can lose their value as interest rates rise and an investor can lose principal. The Fund may, from time to time, invest in a limited number of issuers, which may result in the Fund being more susceptible to a single economic, political or regulatory event than a diversified fund.
