Effective December 31, 2020, the Bloomberg US Aggregate Bond Index will be added as the Fund's secondary benchmark. Please note that that the Fund's primary benchmark, the Bloomberg US Government/Credit Bond Index, will remain unchanged. Likewise, there are no changes to the Fund's investment strategy or process as a result of this secondary benchmark addition. Please refer to the prospectus for more details.

Class N shares of the Fund are subject to a $1,000,000 initial investment minimum. There is no initial investment minimum for Certain Retirement Plans and funds of funds that are distributed by Natixis Distribution, LLC (the “Distributor”).

Diversification does not ensure a profit or guarantee against a loss.

¹ As of the most recent prospectus, the investment advisor has contractually agreed to waive fees and/or reimburse expenses (with certain exceptions) once the expense limitation of the fund has been exceeded. This arrangement is set to expire on 4/30/24. Transfer Agent Fee waivers for Class N are contractual and are set to expire 4/30/24. When an expense limitation has not been exceeded, the fund may have similar expense ratios and/or yields.

²The 30-day SEC yield is a standardized calculation, calculated by dividing the net investment income per share for the 30-day period by the maximum offering price per share at the end of the period and annualizing the result. Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) are designed to provide protection against inflation through monthly adjustments to the principal value of TIPS, which increases with inflation and decreases with deflation as measured by the Consumer Price Index. Monthly principal adjustments for inflation (increases and decreases) are excluded from the 30-day SEC yield calculation. Such adjustments can vary substantially from one month to the next, and if they were included, may materially impact the 30-day SEC yield either higher or lower. A subsidized 30-day SEC yield reflects the effect of fee waivers and expense reimbursements. The SEC yield is not based upon distributions of the fund and actual income distributions may be higher or lower than the 30-day SEC yield amounts. During periods of unusual market conditions and/or activity in the sales or redemptions of fund shares, the fund’s 30-day SEC yield amounts may be materially higher or lower than its actual income distributions. Unsubsidized 30-day SEC yield is calculated using the gross expenses of the fund. Gross expenses do not include any fee waivers or reimbursement.
