1 Firm Description GW&K was founded in 1974 to offer innovative investment solutions consistent with our clients's objectives. Our company has grown from a local provider of investment management services to a nationally recognized manager with broad investment capabilities. We first gained attention for our municipal bond expertise, and it remains one of the cornerstones of our investment offerings. Today we serve a diverse client base of individuals and institutions. Investment Philosophy GW&K believes the key to successful bond management is to protect and grow both principal and income. We also believe that an active, national approach provides greater potential to reduce risk and maximize after-tax returns. Integral to our intermediate duration strategy is our pursuit of opportunities across the yield curve and our focus on intense fundamental research to uncover and exploit market inefficiencies. Investment Decision Making Process We developed our Municipal Bond investment program in response to our clients need for higher after-tax returns consistent with preserving and enhancing principal values. Our approach is bottom-up, active and research-intensive. Municipal bond management is a continuous process at GW&K. As interest rates are cyclical and difficult to predict, we believe that our discipline of reacting to rates and our active investment process provides advantages. We construct portfolios using a research-intensive approach, executing purchases and sales after conducting both structure and credit research. Integral to our approach is our flexibility to actively shift positioning to exploit relative value opportunities. Our focus is on the intermediate area of the yield curve that has historically provided the attractive returns of the long end without the associated volatility. As interest rates rise, we capture higher yields and minimize reinvestment risk by increasing our exposure to longer maturity bonds and extending portfolio duration. As rates decline, we aim to reduce volatility by decreasing portfolio duration. We continuously manage portfolio duration and buy and sell bonds accordingly. We balance new opportunities in the market with existing holdings while maintaining a target portfolio duration. Our extensive network of bond dealers helps us monitor our client s holdings regularly and participate in competitive bond offerings on a daily basis. To further augment performance, we have developed internal decision-support tools that help us value securities, conduct performance attribution and analyze portfolios by monitoring individual objectives and constraints. Our presence in the municipal market also provides us access to offerings and new issue opportunities nationwide enabling us to greatly diversify our portfolios and capitalize on the inefficiencies in the market to effectively manage risk. The benefit of dedicated municipal research, market access and extensive tools cannot be replicated by individual investors. We select bonds based on rigorous research and analysis. Our research analysts look beyond the financial statements to uncover opportunities that others may overlook. We carefully evaluate each bond for both credit quality and appreciation potential. After researching the underlying credit, we conduct comprehensive analysis to dissect the structure of the bond to reveal various yield measures, duration, convexity and overall potential return. It is critical to our process to analyze the collective impact of these factors on the relative attractiveness of each bond. We continuously evaluate our holdings versus bonds available in the market. When we find a bond that we believe is more attractive for our portfolios on an after-tax, after-transaction cost basis, we move to swap/sell or buy the bonds through our extensive, national broker network.
