All investments contain risk and may lose value. Investing in the bond market is subject to risks, including market, interest rate, issuer, credit, inflation risk, and liquidity risk. The value of most bonds and bond strategies are impacted by changes in interest rates. Bonds and bond strategies with longer durations tend to be more sensitive and volatile than those with shorter durations; bond prices generally fall as interest rates rise, and low interest rate environments increase this risk. Reductions in bond counterparty capacity may contribute to decreased market liquidity and increased price volatility. Bond investments may be worth more or less than the original cost when redeemed.

You could lose money by investing in a Money Market Fund. Because the share price of the Fund will fluctuate, when you sell your shares they may be worth more or less than what you originally paid for them. The Fund may impose a fee upon sale of your shares or may temporarily suspend your ability to sell shares if the Fund’s liquidity falls below required minimums because of market conditions or other factors. An investment in the Fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The Fund’s sponsor has no legal obligation to provide financial support to the Fund, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the Fund at any time.

PIMCO does not offer insurance guaranteed products or products that offer investments containing both securities and insurance features.

Stable value investment contracts (wrap) are over the counter agreements issued by insurance companies, banks, and other financial institutions, are intended to help reduce principal volatility of, while providing steady income from, any associated Fund fixed income investments, and are intended to be valued at contract value (typically, deposited principal plus accrued interest less redemptions). Investment contracts vary and may include insurance company separate account contracts, synthetic contracts (also known as wrap contracts), or insurance company general account contracts. Insurance company separate account contracts and synthetic contracts are a combination of fixed income investments (associated assets) and an agreement by a contract provider to allow qualified participant transfers and withdrawals from a fund at contract value. Generally, there is no immediate recognition of investment gains and losses on associated assets; instead, investment gains and losses are amortized over time into the investment contract’s performance by adjusting the contract’s credited rate of interest. A general account contract is a deposit into an insurance company’s general investment account. Stable value wrap contracts are subject to credit and management risk. Although stable value investments seek to reduce the risk of principal loss, you could lose money by investing in a Stable Value strategy.

Management risk is the risk that the investment techniques and risk analyses applied by an investment manager will not produce the desired results, and that certain policies or developments may affect the investment techniques available to the investment manager in connection with managing the strategy.
