If more than one rating is available for an underlying security, the lower of the two ratings is used. If a bond issued by a national government, national government agency or supranational issuer is not rated, the issuer’s credit rating will be used. If two issuer ratings are available, the lower of the two is used. If only one rating is available in all scenarios, we will use the rating provided. If no rating is available, the security will be not rated. Not rated securities do not necessarily indicate lower credit quality. Ratings and portfolio credit quality may change over time.
