Objective

The investment objective of the PGIM Emerging Market Hard Currency Debt Fund (the "Fund") is to seek to achieve a return through a combination of current income and capital appreciation while preserving invested capital. There is no assurance that such objective will be achieved. The Fund will be actively managed and will use the relative value approach through which it will seek to identify and capture market inefficiencies, such as mispriced securities relative to the Investment Manager’s expectation, within the emerging market fixed income and foreign exchange markets with an actively-managed approach. The benchmark of the Fund is the J.P. Morgan EMBI Global Diversified Index. Please see the Company's Fund Documents as described below for additional information.

MORNINGSTAR INFORMATION

The Morningstar Rating for funds, or "star rating", is calculated for managed products (including mutual funds, variable annuity and variable life subaccounts, exchange-traded funds, closed-end funds, and separate accounts) with at least a three-year history. Exchange-traded funds and open-ended mutual funds are considered a single population for comparative purposes. It is calculated based on a Morningstar Risk-Adjusted Return measure that accounts for variation in a managed product's monthly excess performance, placing more emphasis on downward variations and rewarding consistent performance. The Morningstar Rating does not include any adjustments for sales loads. The top 10% of products in each product category receive 5 stars, the next 22.5% receive 4 stars, the next 35% receive 3 stars, the next 22.5% receive 2 stars, and the bottom 10% receive 1 star. The Overall Morningstar Rating for a managed product is derived from a weighted average of the performance figures associated with its three-, five-, and 10-year(if applicable) Morningstar Rating metrics. The weights are: 100% three-year rating for 36-59 months of total returns, 60% five-year rating/40% three-year rating for 60-119 months of total returns, and 50% 10-year rating/30% five-year rating/20% three-year rating for 120 or more months of total returns. While the 10-year overall star rating formula seems to give the most weight to the 10-year period, the most recent three-year period actually has the greatest impact because it is included in all three rating periods.
