Approach
The Voya Enhanced Yield Fixed Income strategy seeks to maximize total return via a higher credit quality approach expressed through the use of Treasury, Agency, and Corporate Credit securities, both Investment Grade and Below, with 1-10 year maturities. The strategy targets greater income than pure investment grade while preserving principle by adding selective high yield bond exposure.

Past performance does not guarantee future results.
Periods greater than one year are annualized. Performance data is considered final unless indicated as preliminary. Monthly performance is based on full GIPS Composite returns. Access the GIPS page for full composite details.
"Gross Returns" are presented before the deduction of transaction costs and should be used as Supplemental Information only. "Net Returns" are calculated by subtracting a hypothetical maximum total wrap fee (estimated at 1.50% per annum) from the monthly "pure" gross-of-fee returns. For periods from January 2007 to June 2021 the hypothetical maximum fee was 2.00% per annum. The total wrap fee includes transaction costs, portfolio management, investment advisory, custodial and other administrative costs. Wrap fees vary amongst brokerage firms and may be negotiated based on account size and other factors. The hypothetical maximum total wrap fee used is deemed to be the maximum fee charged to any composite account but we cannot guarantee accuracy. More information about fees can be found in the Form ADV Part II of Voya Investment Management Co.

Disclosures
Principal Risk
The principal risks are generally those attributable to bond investing. Holdings are subject to market, issuer, credit, prepayment, extension, and other risks, and their values may fluctuate. Market risk is the risk that securities may decline in value due to factors affecting the securities markets or particular industries. Issuer risk is the risk that the value of a security may decline for reasons specific to the issuer, such as changes in its financial condition. The strategy may invest in mortgage-related securities, which can be paid off early if the borrowers on the underlying mortgages pay off their mortgages sooner than scheduled. If interest rates are falling, the strategy will be forced to reinvest this money at lower yields. Conversely, if interest rates are rising, the expected principal payments will slow, thereby locking in the coupon rate at below market levels and extending the security’s life and duration while reducing its market value. High yield bonds carry particular market risks and may experience greater volatility in market value than investment grade bonds. Foreign investments could be riskier than U.S. investments because of exchange rate, political, economics, liquidity, and regulatory risks. Additionally, investments in emerging market countries are riskier than other foreign investments because the political and economic systems in emerging market countries are less stable.
