Fixed-Income Strategies

^* Within approximately the last year, the Fund has undergone changes which may have included the fund name, objective, principal investment strategy and/or benchmark. For more details, see the applicable Fund’s prospectus.

Investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal. • Fixed income security risks include credit, liquidity, call, duration, event and interest-rate risk. As interest rates rise, bond prices generally fall. • Foreign investments may be more volatile and less liquid than US investments and are subject to the risk of currency fl uctuations and adverse political, economic, and regulatory developments. These risks may be greater, and include additional risks, for investments in emerging markets or if a fund focuses in a particular geographic region or country.

Hartford Floating Rate Fund and Hartford Floating Rate High Income Fund should not be considered as alternatives to CDs or money market funds. These Funds are for investors who are looking to complement their traditional fixed-income investments. 

ETFs are not mutual funds. Unlike traditional open-ended mutual funds, ETF shares are bought and sold in the secondary market through a stockbroker. ETFs trade on major stock exchanges and their prices will fluctuate throughout the day. Both ETFs and mutual funds are subject to risk and volatility.
