Allspring Alternative Risk Premia Fund Institutional Class WRPIX Strategy

The investment seeks long-term capital appreciation. The fund seeks to provide investors with exposure to sources of excess return, known as alternative risk premia (ARP), which result from systematic risks and/or behavioral biases existing within the financial markets. The return patterns of ARP have historically displayed low correlations with one another and with traditional asset classes. In order to capture various ARP, the fund may establish both long and short positions in equities, fixed income, currencies and commodities directly or with derivatives.
