STRUCTURED FOR STRENGTH

Traditional Investment Firm Structure

De-Emphasizes ResearchCareer Path

The difference between good investment firms and great ones comes down topeople. Wellington Management’s private partnership structure allows the firm toattract and retain some of the best talent in the investment industry. Many people whocould choose to work wherever they want choose Wellington Management.

For example, let’s look at how the firm views the critical role of research analyst. While many firms view this role as a stepping stone to becoming a portfolio manager,Wellington Management encourages people who are passionate about research tospend their entire careers in this role if that’s their primary area of interest. In fact, asignificant portion of the firm's partners are career analysts. This structure allows thefirm’s brightest research talent to get rewarded for doing what they love—and the endresult is better research for clients.

ALL-AROUNDADVANTAGEHartford Funds takes fulladvantage of WellingtonManagement’s differentiatedperspectives in fixed-income,equities, multi-strategy, andalternative investments.

Collaboration in Action

During a meeting with senior management of an airline company, aWellington Management global industry analyst learned that the airlinewould no longer be flying into and out of a particular airport.

The analyst immediately realized this would have implications for fixed-income portfolios. Airports are typically financed by issuing municipal bonds, so if an airline pulls out of an airport, it may lose revenue,making it more difficult for the airport to repay its municipal bondholders.

The analyst immediately shared this insight with Wellington Management’smunicipal bond team—insight that the team may not have discovered on itsown because often times companies provide different types of informationwhen they meet with equity and fixed-income analysts.

13

With $384 billion in fixed-income assets under management, WellingtonManagement is a market leader in the fixed-income arena (as of 3/31/15).

Strengths include:

■ Fixed-income, equity, and asset-allocation capabilities under one roof — An integrated approach to research promotes a deeper understanding of issuers’capital structures and enhances investment decision-making.

■ Holistic risk management — Quantitative tools and qualitative judgment are combined to balance upside potential with downside risk, supportingconsistency of performance.

■ Cutting-edge technology — Investment decision-making is bolstered bysophisticated proprietary tools for building portfolios, managing risk, andassessing liquidity.

investing keeps getting more

Insight Through Global Collaboration

Connections across countries and industries can be critical to a portfoliomanager’s evaluation of the opportunities and risks of a particular security.

In this case, one of Wellington Management’s London-based equity portfoliomanagers learned about an investment opportunity—a Japanese gamingsoftware company—through an equity research analyst located in the firm’sTokyo office.

The portfolio manager obtained additional key information from a technologyanalyst in the firm’s Hong Kong office, who had learned through an on-sitemeeting that Samsung was coming out with a new tablet that would use thesoftware company’s gaming platform.

The portfolio manager gained further insight from a U.S.-based telecom analyst,who told him that AT&T was utilizing the same Japanese company’s operatingsystem in its U.S. platform.

In the end, the information gleaned from sources located in three different citiesgave the portfolio manager the conviction he needed to conduct his ownquantitative and qualitative analysis of the risks and potential rewards of thisopportunity.
