Mutual Funds are subject to market risk, including loss of principal. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Mutual Funds are sold by prospectus. Before investing, consider the funds’ investment objectives, risks, charges, and expenses. This and other important information is contained in the prospectus. Please visit www.transamerica.com or contact your financial professional to obtain a prospectus or, if available, a summary prospectus containing this information. Please read it carefully before investing.
Floating rate loans are often made to borrowers whose financial condition is troubled or highly leveraged. These loans frequently are rated below investment grade and are therefore subject to risks associated with high yield bonds. High yield bonds tend to be volatile and more susceptible to adverse events, credit downgrades and negative sentiments.
During periods of market disruption (e.g. COVID 19), which may trigger trading halts, the fund's exposure to the risks described in the prospectus will likely increase. As a result, the value and liquidity of the fund's investments may be negatively affected.
Transamerica Funds are advised by Transamerica Asset Management, Inc. (TAM) and distributed by Transamerica Capital, Inc. (TCI), member of FINRA.1801 California Street, Suite 5200, Denver, Colorado 80202.
