The investment seeks high current income and the opportunity for capital appreciation to produce a high total return. To pursue its objective under normal market conditions, the fund invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in bonds, debentures and other fixed income securities. It may invest a substantial portion of its net assets in high-yield securities (commonly referred to as "below investment grade" or "junk" bonds). High-yield securities are rated BB/Ba or lower by a rating agency, or are unrated but determined by Lord Abbett to be of comparable quality.
