US bonds are represented by the Bloomberg US Aggregate Index. Hedged global bonds are represented by the combination of the FTSE World Government Bond Index Hedged from February 1985 through December 1989 and the Bloomberg Global-Aggregate Total Return Index Value Hedged USD from January 1990 through the present. Up capture represents the percentage of market gains captured when the US Aggregate Index return is positive. Down capture represents the percentage of market losses captured when the US Aggregate Index is negative. An investor cannot invest directly in an index, and its performance does not reflect the performance of any AB portfolio. The unmanaged index does not reflect fees and expenses associated with the active management of a portfolio.
