At Thornburg Investment Management, each of our portfolios — whether a short-duration laddered bond fund or a flexible global equity fund — is guided by the same set of investment principles: we focus on the fundamentals, invest for the long term, and go wherever we see value. Third-party recognition reflects the performance that's borne of those investment principles.
LIPPER FUND AWARDS
Lipper Fund Awards are granted annually to the fund or family in each Lipper classification that consistently delivered the strongest risk-adjusted performance (calculated with dividends reinvested and without sales charge).

Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Fund classification awards are given for the three-year, five-year, and ten-year periods. Fund family awards are issued for the three-year period only. Thornburg did not win the awards for any time periods or years other than what's listed above. Only fund families with at least five bond funds were eligible for the Best Fixed Income Fund Family Award. Lipper's Large Company universe was comprised of fund families with more than $40 billion in total net assets for the 2012 award and more than $28 billion for the 2008 award.
Investments in the Funds carry risks, including possible loss of principal. Investing outside the United States, especially in emerging markets, entails special risks, such as currency fluctuations, illiquidity, and volatility. Investments in small capitalization companies may increase the risk of greater price fluctuations. Funds investing in bonds have the same interest rate, inflation, and credit risks that are associated with the underlying bonds. The principal value of bonds will fluctuate relative to changes in interest rates, decreasing when interest rates rise. This effect is more pronounced for longer-term bonds. Unlike bonds, bond funds have ongoing fees and expenses. Funds invested in mortgage backed securities may bear additional risk. Investments in lower rated and unrated bonds may be more sensitive to default, downgrades, and market volatility; these investments may also be less liquid than higher rated bonds. Investments in derivatives are subject to the risks associated with the securities or other assets underlying the pool of securities, including illiquidity and difficulty in valuation. Investments in the Funds are not FDIC insured, nor are they deposits of or guaranteed by a bank or any other entity.
Class I shares may not be available to all investors. Minimum investments for the I share class may be higher than those for other classes.
Before investing, carefully consider the Fund’s investment goals, risks, charges, and expenses. For a prospectus or summary prospectus containing this and other information, contact your financial advisor or visit our literature library. Read them carefully before investing.
