TCW Emerging Markets Income Fund
(TGEIX/TGINX)

The TCW Emerging Markets Advantage
Experience
TCW Portfolio Managers Penny Foley, Mark Madden and Dave Robbins are Emerging Markets veterans, with extensive experience investing around the world and across numerous market cycles. Together they average 26 years of total investment experience.

• An actively managed fixed income strategy built on an integrated top-down and bottom-up investment process that emphasizes global and multi-sector diversification to generate attractive riskadjusted total returns • Highly developed investment process tested in extreme market conditions • Proven, long-term track record • Capitalizes on strengthening credit fundamentals and upward rating migration for Emerging Markets bonds • Headed by veteran portfolio managers Penny Foley and Dave Robbins • Launched in September 1996

Opportunity
Emerging Markets economies boast superior demographic trends, lower government debt levels and higher growth rates than the developed world. As a result, Emerging Markets debt and equities are forecast to outperform the developed world over the next 2-3 years.

Insight
TCW views Emerging Markets as an “under-invested” asset class, positioned to benefit as U.S. pension funds and other large institutional investors rebalance their portfolios to take advantage of compelling opportunities in Emerging Markets securities.

TCW Emerging Markets Equities Fund
(TGMIX/TGMMX)

• An actively managed equities strategy focused on compelling reward-risk opportunities across the entire spectrum of Emerging Markets countries and industries • Portfolio construction based on absolute risk-return rather than “benchmark risk” and an integrated top-down and bottom-up research process • Headed by veteran portfolio managers Dave Robbins and Mark Madden • Launched in December 2009
