Dear Valued Investors,
I am pleased to present the semi-annual report for the TCW Funds, Inc. covering the six-month period ended April 30, 2022. I would like to express our appreciation for your continued investment in the TCW Funds as well as welcome new shareholders to our Fund family. As of April 30, 2022, the TCW Funds held total assets of approximately $12.6 billion.
This report contains information outlining the performance and a list of portfolio holdings as of April 30, 2022 for the TCW Funds’ Equity Funds and the TCW Conservative Allocation Fund.
The U.S. Stock Market
U.S. stocks declined 9.6% (S&P 500 Total Return Index) during the period under review, as surging inflation forced the U.S. Fed to embark on a series of interest rate hikes as well as a reduction of its balance sheet assets (“quantitative tightening”). The equity market had surged to a record high in early January once it became clear that the COVID-19 Omicron variant was not as deadly as prior waves of the pandemic, and prospects for economic growth were boosted by continued healing of the labor market, with the unemployment rate falling below 4%. However, Russia’s late-February invasion of Ukraine prompted concerns about the potential for a wider military conflict as well as worries about the impact of soaring energy prices. At the same time, consumer inflation spiked to a 40-year high in March, with the headline consumer price index (CPI) gauge jumping 8.5% in March. The Fed finally raised its reference rate 25 basis points early that month, and Chair Powell made it clear that 50 basis point rate hikes might well be required in future meetings in order to rein in inflation and achieve a “soft landing,” but investors worried that a more aggressive series of interest rate hikes might push the U.S. economy into recession next year. To be sure, growth prospects dimmed across the globe with Europe facing the possibility of a recession this year given the Ukraine war, and China’s economy was
set to slow in light of its continued draconian COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns. After bonds’ worst quarter in more than 40 years, the yield on the 10-Year U.S. Treasury Note continued to rise in April, spiking 60 basis points from 2.34% to 2.94%, as investors priced in the likelihood of the Fed hiking its reference rate to a “neutral” level of perhaps 3.25% over the next 12-18 months. As a result, a decidedly “risk-off” dynamic led to a sharp sell-off in the equity market that was led by longer-duration cash flow names in the technology-laden NASDAQ Index.
Looking forward, we note that the resilience of U.S. corporate earnings has been overshadowed by the major macroeconomic developments cited above. In 1Q22, with the vast majority of companies having reported, revenues are running at an impressive 13.7% year-over-year (YoY) growth rate, while earnings per share have advanced about 11.7% YoY (Credit Suisse, 5/13/22). While investors are certainly more focused on the prospect for forward earnings given the rising interest rate environment and the slower growth outlook, we have already witnessed a substantial de-rating of stock market valuation multiples, and any confirmation that inflation has peaked could assuage concerns about the pace of Fed rate hikes and quantitative tightening. To be sure, a policy error that pushed the U.S. economy into recession rather than achieved a “soft landing” would in general be very negative for stocks, but many companies and their equity prices could thrive in a slower growth environment characterized by elevated inflation in the 2-4% range, provided that they can avoid margin squeezes. Following the equity valuation multiple compression witnessed in the past few months, stocks are trading around 17 times forward earnings, which is still elevated but closer to the 15 times average of the past five decades. That said, we fully expect the stock market’s trajectory to be driven by macroeconomic data releases in the near-term and, as such, we expect the volatility as of late to continue.

Letter to Shareholders (Continued) | | |
Fund Performance
Our equity fund performance during the period under review struggled in light of the sharp downturn in the stock market, with most funds lagging their respective benchmarks. Those funds having substantial technology exposure were the most adversely impacted, as pandemic-driven “stay-at-home” demand dissipated. Our value-oriented equity funds proved more resilient given their exposure to the energy and materials sectors, with the Relative Valued Dividend Appreciation Fund posting a slightly positive return relative to its benchmark. In the midst of the present heightened market volatility, we believe that our emphasis on rigorous bottom-up stock research will serve our fund participants well over the longer term, especially as a higher interest rate environment likely results in greater dispersion among stock returns. At present, a key focus of our research effort has been to identify those companies which possess pricing power and/or some capacity to manage input cost pressures, given our expectation for structurally higher
inflation going forward. We believe that such focus will allow us to position our equity funds to achieve compelling long-term risk-adjusted returns for the benefit of our clients.
We truly value our relationship with you and thank you for making the TCW Funds part of your long-term investment plan. If you have any questions or require further information, I invite you to visit our website at www.tcw.com, or call our shareholder services department at 800-386-3829.
I look forward to further correspondence with you through our annual report later this year.
Sincerely,

David Lippman
President, Chief Executive Officer and Director

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and which are consistently followed
43
TCW Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Fund is considered an investment company under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. Subsequent events, if any, have been evaluated through the date of issuance in the preparation of the financial statements.
Principles of Accounting: The Funds use the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes.
Net Asset Value: The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of each class of a Fund is determined by dividing the Fund’s net assets attributable to each class by the number of shares issued and outstanding of that class on each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading.
Security Valuations: Equity securities listed or traded on the NYSE and other stock exchanges are valued at the latest sale price on the exchange. Securities traded on the NASDAQ stock market (“NASDAQ”) are valued using official closing prices as reported by NASDAQ, which may not be the last sale price. Options on equity securities and options on indexes are valued using mid prices (average of bid and ask prices) as reported by the exchange or pricing service. Investments in open-end mutual funds including money market funds are valued based on the NAV per share as reported by the investment companies. All other securities for which over-the-counter (“OTC”) market quotations are readily available, including short-term securities, swap agreements and forward currency contracts, are valued with prices furnished by independent pricing services or by broker-dealers.
The Company has adopted, after the approval by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board,” and each member thereof, a “Director”), a fair valuation methodology for foreign equity securities (exclusive of certain Latin American and Canadian equity securities). This methodology is designed to address the effect of movements in the U.S. market on the securities traded on foreign exchanges that have been closed for a period of time due to time zones differences. The utilization of the fair value model may result in the adjustment of prices taking into account fluctuations in the U.S. market. The fair value model is utilized each trading day and not dependent on certain thresholds or triggers.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, including in circumstances under which it is determined by the Advisor that prices received are not reflective of their market values, are valued by the Advisor’s Pricing Committee in accordance with the guidelines established by the Valuation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors and under the general oversight of the Board.
Fair value is defined as the price that a Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Funds disclose investments in their financial statements in a three-tier hierarchy. This hierarchy is utilized to establish classification of fair value measurements based on inputs. Inputs that go into fair value measurement refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.

April 30, 2022
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
| | |
Level 1 — | | quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. |
Level 2 — | | other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). |
Level 3 — | | significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned Level within the hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments and the determination of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to each security.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized as Level 3.
In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition, as well as changes related to liquidity of investments, could cause a security to be reclassified between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Fair Value Measurements: Descriptions of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:
Equity securities. Securities are generally valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are generally categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Restricted securities issued by publicly held companies are generally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; if a discount is applied and significant, they are categorized as Level 3. Restricted securities held in non-public entities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently, and therefore the inputs are unobservable. Certain foreign securities that are fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Mutual funds. Open-end mutual funds including money market funds are valued using the NAV as reported by the fund companies. As such, they are categorized as Level 1.
Options contracts. Options contracts traded on securities exchanges are fair valued using market mid prices; as such, they are categorized as Level 1. Option contracts traded OTC are fair valued based on pricing models and incorporate various inputs such as interest rates, credit spreads, currency exchange rates and volatility measurements for in-the-money, at-the-money, and out-of-money contracts on a given strike price. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair value of OTC option contracts would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise, the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Restricted securities. Restricted securities, including illiquid Rule 144A securities, issued by non-public entities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently, and therefore the inputs are unobservable. Any other restricted securities valued similar to publicly traded securities may be categorized as Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on whether a discount is applied and significant to the fair value.
Warrants. Warrants are generally valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are generally categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
The summary of the inputs used as of April 30, 2022 in valuing the Funds’ investments is listed after the Schedule of Investments for each Fund.
The Funds held no investments or other financial instruments at April 30, 2022 for which fair value was calculated using Level 3 inputs.
Security Transactions and Related Investment Income: Security transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on investments are recorded on the basis of specific identification.
Allocation of Operating Activity for Multiple Classes: Investment income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated among the share classes of the Funds based on the relative net assets of each class. Distribution fees, which are directly attributable to a class of shares, are charged to the operations of that class. All other expenses are charged to each Fund or class as incurred on a specific identification basis. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income for each class, and in turn differences in dividends paid by each class.
Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The TCW Global Real Estate Fund and the TCW Relative Value Dividend Appreciation Fund declare and pay, or reinvest, dividends from net investment income quarterly. The other Equity Funds and TCW Conservative Allocation Fund declare and pay, or reinvest, dividends from net investment income annually. Capital gains realized by a Fund will be distributed at least annually.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, derivative transactions, market discount and premium, losses deferred due to wash sales, excise tax regulations and employing equalization in determining amounts to be distributed to Fund shareholders. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications between paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income (loss), and/or undistributed accumulated realized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income or loss may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in subsequent periods. Any taxable income or capital gain remaining at fiscal year-end is distributed in the following year. Distributions received from real estate investment trusts may include return of capital which is treated as a reduction in the cost basis of those investments. Distributions received, if any, in excess of the cost basis of a security is recognized as capital gain.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the accompanying financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of each Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) foreign currency denominated securities and other assets and liabilities stated in foreign currencies, are translated using the daily spot rate; and (2) purchases, sales, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The resultant exchange gains and losses are included in net realized or net unrealized gain (loss) in the Statements of Operations. Pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations, certain foreign exchange gains and losses included in realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in, or are a reduction of, ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.
Foreign Taxes: The Funds may be subject to withholding taxes on income and capital gains imposed by certain countries in which they invest. The withholding tax on income is netted against the income accrued or received. Any reclaimable taxes are recorded as income. The withholding tax on realized or unrealized gain is recorded as a liability.
Derivative Instruments: Derivatives are financial instruments which are valued based on the values of one or more indicators, such as a security, asset, currency, interest rate, or index. Derivative transactions can create investment leverage and may be highly volatile. A derivative contract may result in a mark-to-market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. It is possible that a derivative transaction will result in a loss greater than the principal amount invested. The Funds may not be able to close out a derivative transaction at a favorable time or price.
For the period ended April 30, 2022, the TCW Global Real Estate Fund had the following derivatives and transactions in derivatives, grouped in the following risk categories:

Counterparty Credit Risk: Derivative contracts may be exposed to counterparty risk. Losses can occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
The Funds’ risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain netted against any collateral held by the Funds.
With exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Funds since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, the credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, the Funds do not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency) of the clearing broker or clearinghouse. Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Funds.
For OTC derivatives, the Funds mitigate their counterparty risk by entering into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with each counterparty. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Funds and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/ or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, the Funds may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. In addition, certain ISDA Master Agreements allow counterparties to OTC derivatives to terminate derivative contracts prior to maturity in the event a Fund’s net assets declines by a stated percentage or a Fund fails to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreements, which would cause the Fund to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty.
Collateral requirements: For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral pledged or received by a Fund.
Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund is reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedule of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold, typically $250,000 or $500,000, before a transfer is required, which is determined at the close of each business day and the collateral is transferred on the next business day. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears
48
TCW Funds, Inc.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. The Funds attempt to mitigate counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that the Advisor believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds have implemented the disclosure requirements pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities that requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards.
Master Agreements and Netting Arrangements. Certain Funds are parties to various agreements, including but not limited to International Swaps and Derivatives Association Agreements and related Credit Support Annex, Master Repurchase Agreements, and Master Securities Forward Transactions Agreements (collectively “Master Agreements”), which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. These Master Agreements generally include provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and certain events of default or termination. These Master Agreements also include provisions for netting arrangements that help reduce credit and counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions (“netting arrangements”). The netting arrangements are generally tied to credit-related events that, if triggered, would cause an event of default or termination giving a Fund or counterparty the right to terminate early and cause settlement, on a net basis, of all transactions under the applicable Master Agreement. In the event of an early termination as a result of an event of default under the Master Agreement, the total value exposure of all transactions will be offset against collateral exchanged to date, which would result in a net receivable or payable that would be due from or to the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. Credit related events include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy, failure to make timely payments, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, a material decline in net assets, decline in credit rating or repudiation/moratorium. Any election made by a counterparty to early terminate the transactions under a Master Agreement could have a material adverse impact on a Fund’s financial statements. A Fund’s overall exposure to credit risk, subject to netting arrangements, can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the arrangement.
Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given Fund exceeds a specified threshold, net of collateral already in place, typically $250,000 or $500,000 depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Agreement. Collateral under the Master Agreements is usually in the form of cash or U.S. Treasury Bills but could include other types of securities. If permitted under the Master Agreement, certain funds may rehypothecate cash collateral received from a counterparty. The value of all derivative transactions outstanding under a Master Agreement is calculated daily to determine the amount of collateral to be received or pledged by the counterparty. Posting of collateral for OTC derivative transactions are covered under tri-party collateral agreements between the Fund, the Fund’s custodian, and each counterparty. Collateral for centrally cleared derivatives transactions are posted with the applicable derivatives clearing organization.
The Funds had no OTC derivatives for offset under an ISDA Master Agreement as of April 30, 2022.

Note 3 — Portfolio Investments
When-Issued, Delayed-Delivery and Forward Commitment Transactions: The Funds, with the exception of the TCW Conservative Allocation Fund, may enter into when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment transactions in order to lock in the purchase price of the underlying security or to adjust the interest rate exposure of each Fund’s existing portfolio. In when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment transactions, a Fund commits to purchase or sell particular securities, with payment and delivery to take place at a future date. Although the Fund does not pay for the securities or start earning interest on them until they are delivered, it immediately assumes the risks of ownership, including the risk of price fluctuation. If a Fund’s counterparty fails to deliver a security purchased on a when issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment basis, there may be a loss, and the Fund may have missed an opportunity to make an alternative investment.
Prior to settlement of these transactions, the value of the subject securities will fluctuate with market conditions. In addition, because the Fund is not required to pay for when-issued, delayed-delivery or forward commitment securities until the delivery date, they may result in a form of leverage to the extent the Fund does not set aside liquid assets to cover the commitment. To guard against this deemed leverage, the Fund monitors the obligations under these transactions on a daily basis and ensures that the Fund has sufficient liquid assets to cover them. There were no when-issued, delayed-delivery or forward commitment transactions in the Funds during the period ended April 30, 2022.
Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). In a repurchase agreement, the Funds purchase a security from a counterparty who agrees to repurchase the same security at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The MRA permits each Fund, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from each Fund. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of the MRA counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. Pursuant to the terms of the MRA, each Fund receives securities as collateral with a market value in excess of the repurchase price. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Fund recognizes a liability with respect to such excess collateral to reflect the Fund’s obligation under bankruptcy law to return the excess to the counterparty. There were no repurchase agreements outstanding as of April 30, 2022.
Securities Lending: The Funds may lend their securities to qualified brokers. The loans must be collateralized at all times primarily with cash although the Funds can accept money market instruments or U.S. Government securities with a market value at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. As with any extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral if the borrowers of the securities fail financially. The Funds earn additional income for lending their securities by investing the cash collateral in short-term investments. The Funds did not lend any securities during the period ended April 30, 2022.
Derivatives:
Options: The Funds may purchase and sell put and call options on a security or an index of securities to enhance investment performance and/or to protect against changes in market prices. The Funds may also enter into currency options to hedge against or to take advantage of currency fluctuations.
A call option gives the holder the right to purchase, and obligates the writer to sell, a security at the strike price at any time before the expiration date. A put option gives the holder the right to sell, and obligates the
50
TCW Funds, Inc.

Note 3 — Portfolio Investments (Continued)
writer to buy, a security at the exercise price at any time before the expiration date. A Fund may purchase put options to protect portfolio holdings against a decline in market value of a security or securities held by it. A Fund may also purchase a put option hoping to profit from an anticipated decline in the value of the underlying security. If a Fund holds the security underlying the option, the option premium and any transaction costs will reduce any profit the Fund might have realized had it sold the underlying security instead of buying the put option. A Fund may purchase call options to hedge against an increase in the price of securities that the Fund ultimately wants to buy. A Fund may also purchase a call option as a long directional investment hoping to profit from an anticipated increase in the value of the underlying security. In order for a call option to be profitable, the market price of the underlying security must rise sufficiently above the exercise price to cover the premium and transaction costs. These costs will reduce any profit a Fund might have realized had it bought the underlying security at the time it purchased the call option.
Purchasing foreign currency options gives a Fund the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell specified amounts of currency at a rate of exchange that may be exercised by a certain date. These currency options may be used as a short or long hedge against possible variations in foreign exchange rates or to gain exposure to foreign currencies.
When a Fund purchases an option, it runs the risk that it will lose its entire investment in the option in a relatively short period of time, unless the Fund exercises the option or enters into a closing sale transaction before the option’s expiration. If the price of the underlying security does not rise (in the case of a call) or fall (in the case of a put) to an extent sufficient to cover the option premium and transaction costs, the Fund will lose part or all of its investment in the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options that expire are treated as realized losses.
Options purchased or sold by a Fund may be traded on a securities or options exchange. Such options typically have minimal exposure to counterparty risk. However, an exchange or market may at times find it necessary to impose restrictions on particular types of options transactions, such as opening transactions. If an underlying security ceases to meet qualifications imposed by an exchange or the Options Clearing Corporation, new series of options on that security will no longer be opened to replace the expiring series, and opening transactions in existing series may be prohibited.
OTC options are options not traded on exchanges or backed by clearinghouses. Rather, they are entered into directly between a Fund and the counterparty to the option. In the case of an OTC option purchased by a Fund, the value of the option to the Fund will depend on the willingness and ability of the option writer to perform its obligations to the Fund. In addition, OTC options may not be transferable and there may be little or no secondary market for them, so they may be considered illiquid. It may not be possible to enter into closing transactions with respect to OTC options or otherwise to terminate such options, and as a result a Fund may be required to remain obligated on an unfavorable OTC option until its expiration.
During the period ended April 30, 2022, TCW Global Real Estate Fund entered into option contracts to hedge the Fund’s investments from market volatility in the real estate sector.
Note 4 — Risk Considerations
Market Risk: The Funds’ investments will fluctuate with market conditions, and so will the value of your investment in the Funds. You could lose money on your investment in the Funds or the Funds could underperform other investments.
Liquidity Risk: The Funds’ investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the Funds because they may not be able to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Investments in
51
TCW Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 4 — Risk Considerations (Continued)
high-yield securities, foreign securities, derivatives or other securities with substantial market and/or credit risk tend to have the greatest exposure to liquidity risk. Certain investments in private placements and Rule 144A securities may be considered illiquid investments. The Funds may invest in private placements and Rule 144A securities.
Counterparty Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may not fulfill its obligations.
Investment Style Risk: Certain Funds may also be subject to investment style risk. The Advisor’s investment styles may be out of favor at times or may not produce the best results over short or longer time periods and may increase the volatility of a Fund’s share price.
Equity Risk: Equity securities may include common stock, preferred stock or other securities representing an ownership interest or the right to acquire an ownership interest in an issuer. Equity risk is the risk that stocks and other equity securities generally fluctuate in value more than bonds and can decline in value over short or extended periods. The value of stocks and other equity securities will be affected by changes in a company’s financial condition and in overall market, economic and political conditions.
Public Health Emergencies Risk and Impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19): Pandemics and other local, national, and international public health emergencies, including outbreaks of infectious diseases such as SARS, H1N1/09 Flu, the Avian Flu, Ebola and the current outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), can result, and in the case of COVID-19 is resulting, in market volatility and disruption, and any similar future emergencies may materially and adversely impact economic production and activity in ways that cannot be predicted, all of which could result in substantial investment losses.
The COVID-19 outbreak has caused a worldwide public health emergency, straining healthcare resources and resulting in extensive and growing numbers of infections, hospitalizations and deaths. In an effort to contain COVID-19, local, regional, and national governments, as well as private businesses and other organizations, imposed and in some cases continue to impose severely restrictive measures, including instituting local and regional quarantines, restricting travel (including closing certain international borders), prohibiting public activity (including “stay-at-home,” “shelter-in-place,” and similar orders), and ordering the closure of a wide range of offices, businesses, schools, and other public venues. Consequently, COVID-19 has significantly diminished and disrupted global economic production and activity of all kinds and has contributed to both volatility and a severe decline in financial markets.
The ultimate impact of COVID-19 (and of the resulting precipitous decline and disruption in economic and commercial activity across many of the world’s economies) on global economic conditions, and on the operations, financial condition, and performance of any particular market, industry or business, is impossible to predict. However, ongoing and potential additional materially adverse effects, including further global, regional and local economic downturns (including recessions) of indeterminate duration and severity, are possible. It is difficult to assess what the longer-term impacts of an extended period of unprecedented economic dislocation and disruption will be on future economic developments, the health of certain markets, industries and businesses, and commercial and consumer behavior. The ongoing COVID-19 crisis and any other public health emergency that may arise in the future could have a significant adverse impact on the Funds’ investments and result in significant investment losses.

Note 11 — Affiliate Ownership
As of April 30, 2022, affiliates of the Funds and Advisor owned 40.06%, 26.88%, and 6.32% of the net assets of the TCW Artificial Intelligence Equity Fund, the TCW Global Real Estate Fund, and the TCW Relative Value Large Cap Fund, respectively.
Note 12 — Restricted Securities
The Funds are permitted to invest in securities that have legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities may be sold privately, but are required to be registered before being sold to the public (exemption rules apply). Private placement securities are generally considered to be restricted except for those securities traded between qualified institutional investors under the provisions of Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company considers 144A securities to be restricted if those securities have been deemed illiquid. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. There were no restricted securities held by the Funds at April 30, 2022.
Note 13 — Committed Line Of Credit
The Funds have entered into a $100,000,000 committed revolving line of credit agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”) for temporary borrowing purposes, renewable annually. The interest rate on borrowing is the higher of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.10% plus 1.25% or the Overnight Bank Funding rate plus 0.10% plus 1.25%. There were no borrowings from the line of credit as of or during the period ended April 30, 2022. The Funds pay the Bank a commitment fee equal to 0.25% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount. The commitment fees incurred by the Funds are

Note 13 — Committed Line Of Credit (Continued)
presented in the Statements of Operations. The commitment fees are allocated to each applicable portfolio in proportion to its relative average daily net assets and the interest expenses are charged directly to the applicable portfolio.
Note 14 — Liquidity Risk Management Program
Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act (the “Liquidity Rule”) requires that all registered open-end management investment companies, including the Funds, establish a written liquidity risk management program (a “Liquidity Program”). Under a fund’s Liquidity Program, a fund must assess, manage and periodically review the fund’s liquidity risk, classify the liquidity of each of the fund’s portfolio investments, determine whether to specify highly liquid investment minimum (and, if so, at what level), limit illiquid investments to 15% of fund investments, and establish policies and procedures regarding how and when a fund will engage in redemptions in-kind. Consistent with the Liquidity Rule, the Board has approved the written Liquidity Program for the Funds and has designated a committee of professionals associated with the Advisor to administer the Funds’ Liquidity Program (the “Program Administrator”).
On March 14, 2022, the Board reviewed the Program Administrator’s written annual report (the “Report”) concerning the operation of the Funds’ Liquidity Program for the calendar year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Reporting Period”). The Report addressed the operation of the Liquidity Program and assessed its adequacy and effectiveness of implementation, including, where applicable, the operation of a Fund’s Highly Liquid Investment Minimum (“HLIM”). The Report discussed, among other things: (1) the liquidity risk framework used to assess, manage, and periodically review each Fund’s liquidity risk and the results of this assessment; (2) the methodology and inputs for classifying each of the Fund’s investments into liquidity categories that reflect an estimate of their liquidity under current market conditions; (3) whether a Fund invested primarily in “Highly Liquid Investments” (as defined under the Liquidity Rule) and the operation and monitoring of the HLIM assigned to a Fund, as applicable; (4) whether a Fund invested more than 15% of its assets in “Illiquid Investments” (as defined under the Liquidity Rule) and the procedures for monitoring for this limit; and (5) the results of stress tests designed to assess liquidity under a hypothetical stressed scenario involving elevated redemptions. The Report concluded that the Liquidity Program was reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk and was adequately and effectively implemented with respect to each Fund during the Reporting Period.
There can be no assurance that the Liquidity Program will achieve its objectives in the future. Please refer to your Fund’s prospectus for more information regarding the Fund’s exposure to liquidity risk and other principal risks to which an investment in the Fund may be subject.
Note 15 — Indemnifications
Under the Company’s organizational documents, its Officers and Directors may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. In addition, the Company entered into an agreement with each of the Directors which provides that the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Director against any expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such Director in any proceeding arising out of or in connection with the Director’s services to the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws, the Maryland General Corporation Law, the Securities Act, and the 1940 Act, each as now or hereinafter in force. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is

Note 15 — Indemnifications (Continued)
unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote. The Company has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnification.

Shareholder Expenses (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur ongoing operational costs of the Fund, including management fees and other fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022 (181 days).
Actual Expenses: The first line under each Fund in the table below provides information about the actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second line under each Fund in the table below provides information about the hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account value and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

To Our Valued Shareholders | | |

| | David B. Lippman President, Chief Executive Officer and Director |
Dear Valued Investors,
We are pleased to present the semi-annual report for the TCW Funds, Inc. covering the six-month period ended April 30, 2022. As interest rates have reset higher over the past six months, asset growth in the complex stalled on weaker market pricing, ending the reporting period at $12.6 billion. In addition, as is typical in these periods, an investor review of fixed income tends to spur reallocations away from interest rate risk and the asset class, further muting the recent growth profile. These challenges notwithstanding, higher rates do imply an improved return outlook going forward and the attendant volatility brings opportunity for our teams to apply their hallmark discipline to find value for client assets across the Fund complex.
This report contains information outlining performance and an inventory of holdings as of April 30, 2022 for the TCW Funds’ Fixed Income Funds.
Economic Review and Market Environment
A little more than two years removed from the onset of COVID-19, the arrival of which led to unprecedented commercial lockdowns and massive economic stimulus, a certain reckoning has begun to play out. While the first quarter of 2021 provided a temporary preview (which was reversed by the summer) of the consequences of the sustained monetary and fiscal largesse invoked to forestall a deep recession or worse, the start of 2022 (and indeed a few months prior) has delivered a seemingly more “permanent” higher interest rate regime. This is largely because of, one, demonstrated inflation, and two, expectations for considerable Fed tightening in the months ahead. Indicative of the inflation (and the continued geopolitical upset owing to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine), commodity prices climbed 25% in the first quarter of 2022 alone as ongoing supply issues and easy money conditions were exacerbated by the war. The contrast with the pandemic depths could not be starker: the spot price of U.S. oil, having plunged to below zero in
April 2020, traded briefly above $130 in early March before settling to the low $100 range at the end of the period. Against this backdrop, the headline consumer price index (CPI) for April showed an 8.3% year-over-year increase, and expectations are for still-elevated prices in the coming months. The Fed also made it clear it will use the primary tool at hand – higher rates – to curb inflation, initiating this hiking cycle with a 25 basis point (bps) increase to the Funds rate in March 2022 and continuing with a 50 bps hike in early May. The market is currently pricing in three additional 50 bps hikes in the next three meetings, with five 25 bps hikes priced in thereafter. Given this front-loaded expectation for the increases, the Treasury yield curve re-pricing was considerable for shorter maturities. The 2-Year Treasury yield surged nearly 222 bps from six months ago to 2.72%, while the 10-Year jumped 138 bps to 2.94%. Longer dated maturities also rose, albeit at a slower pace, with the curve briefly inverting in the beginning of April amid ongoing concern of a slowdown in growth, realized with a negative 1.4% real GDP print in the first quarter. While the Fed aims to bring the economy to neutral (or close to it), continued supply chain disruptions, enduring price pressures from the war, waning investor confidence, and the risk of a policy misstep will test its ability to execute the elusive soft landing during these hard times.
In a telling sign of current market stress, the trend of rising stock prices, largely in lockstep with the rollout of congressional COVID-19 relief measures and other accommodative policy, was reversed over the past six months as the S&P 500 Index fell 9.7% during the period. Similarly, amid sharply higher Treasury yields and heightened volatility, fixed income markets delivered largely negative total returns, with the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index down 9.5%, approximately 136 bps behind duration-matched Treasuries. Agency mortgage-backed securities (MBS), in particular, were challenged in this environment of rate volatility, with further headwinds

Letter to Shareholders (Continued) | | |
coming from concerns over Fed pullback as quantitative tightening is set to begin in June with the gradual reduction of the Fed’s balance sheet. As such, the sector declined 8.5%, trailing comparable Treasuries by 192 bps. Corporate credit fell nearly 13.0% and trailed duration-matched Treasuries by 294 bps. Communications and utilities were among the worst performing sectors, while independent energy and airlines, though still negative, benefitted from a stark uptick in commodity prices and a rebound in travel. High yield credit also fell during the period, posting a negative total return of 7.4% and trailed duration-adjusted Treasuries by 183 bps. Among the other securitized sectors, commercial MBS (CMBS) was down approximately 8.0%, with both agency and non-agency collateral lagging comparable Treasuries. Finally, asset-backed securities (ABS) were down 3.8% and trailed duration-matched Treasuries by roughly 40 bps, weighed down by credit card receivables.
A Disciplined Value Philosophy
While the start to the year – one of the most difficult stretches in bond market history – also signals the possibility of turbulence in the months and quarters to come, we continue, as ever, to look at challenges as opportunity. Navigating the bumpy environment also
reminds us that performance can defy reason for temporary periods; however, with appropriate risk control, discipline and alertness to buy attractive bonds at cheap and hopefully compelling prices, the stage can be set for significant longer-term outperformance. Portfolios are currently well positioned to capitalize on these opportunities, while also maintaining substantial liquidity for flexibility in all market conditions.
We truly value our relationship with you and thank you for making the TCW Funds part of your long-term investment plan. If you have any questions or require further information, I invite you to visit our website at www.tcw.com, or call our shareholder services department at 800-386-3829.
I look forward to further correspondence with you through our annual report later this year.
Sincerely,

David Lippman
President, Chief Executive Officer and Director

(1) | Past performance is not indicative of future performance. |
(2) | Performance data includes the performance of the predecessor limited partnership for periods before the Fund’s registration became effective. The predecessor limited partnership was not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and therefore was not subject to certain investment restrictions that are imposed by the 1940 Act. If the limited partnership had been registered under the 1940 Act, the limited partnership’s performance may have been lower. |
(3) | Inception date of the predecessor entity. |

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies, which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and which are consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Fund is considered an investment company under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. Subsequent events, if any, have been evaluated through the date of issuance in the preparation of the financial statements.
Principles of Accounting: The Funds use the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes.
Principles of Consolidation: The TCW Cayman Enhanced Commodity Fund, Ltd. (the “Subsidiary”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, was incorporated as a wholly owned subsidiary acting as an investment vehicle for the TCW Enhanced Commodity Strategy Fund (the “Parent”) in order to effect certain investments for the Parent consistent with the Parent’s investment objectives and policies as specified in its prospectus and statement of additional information. The accompanying financial statements are consolidated and include the accounts of the Subsidiary. The Parent’s investment in the Subsidiary will normally not exceed 25% of the value of the Parent’s total assets tested at the time of making an investment. The net assets of the Subsidiary at April 30, 2022 were $5,237,185 or 15.75% of the Parent’s consolidated net assets. Intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Net Asset Value: The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of each class of a Fund is determined by dividing the Fund’s net assets attributable to each class by the number of shares issued and outstanding of that class on each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading.
Security Valuations: Securities listed or traded on the NYSE and other stock exchanges are valued at the latest sale price on the exchange. Securities traded on the NASDAQ stock market (“NASDAQ”) are valued using official closing prices as reported by NASDAQ, which may not be the last sale price. Investments in open-end mutual funds including money market funds are valued based on the NAV per share as reported by the investment companies. All other securities for which over-the-counter (“OTC”) market quotations are readily available, including short-term securities, swap agreements and forward currency contracts, are valued with prices furnished by independent pricing services or by broker-dealers.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, including in circumstances under which it is determined by the Advisor that prices received are not reflective of their market values, are valued by the Advisor’s Pricing Committee in accordance with the guidelines established by the Valuation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board,” and each member thereof, a “Director”) and under the general oversight of the Board.
Fair value is defined as the price that a Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Funds disclose investments in their financial statements in a three-tier hierarchy. This hierarchy is utilized to establish classification of fair value measurements based on inputs. Inputs that go into fair value measurement refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability,
104

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
| | |
Level 1 — | | quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. |
Level 2 — | | other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). |
Level 3 — | | significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned Level within the hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments and the determination of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to each security.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized as Level 3.
In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition, as well as changes related to liquidity of investments, could cause a security to be reclassified between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Fair Value Measurements: Descriptions of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:
Asset-backed securities (“ABS”) and mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”). The fair value of ABS and MBS is estimated based on pricing models that consider the estimated cash flows of each debt tranche of the issuer, establish a benchmark yield, and develop an estimated tranche-specific spread to the benchmark yield based on the unique attributes of the tranche including, but not limited to, the prepayment speed assumptions and attributes of the collateral. To the extent the inputs are observable and timely, the values would be categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; otherwise, they would be categorized as Level 3.
Bank loans. The fair value of bank loans is estimated using recently executed transactions, market price quotations, credit/market events, and cross-asset pricing. Inputs are generally observable and are obtained from independent sources. Bank loans are generally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Corporate bonds. The fair value of corporate bonds is estimated using recently executed transactions, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, or credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. Corporate bonds are generally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; in instances where prices, spreads, or any of the other aforementioned key inputs are unobservable, they are categorized as Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Foreign currency contracts. The fair values of foreign currency contracts are derived from indices, reference rates, and other inputs or a combination of these factors. To the extent that these factors can be observed, foreign currency contracts are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Futures contracts. Futures contracts are generally valued at the settlement price established at the close of business each day by the exchange on which they are traded. They are categorized as Level 1.
Government and agency securities. Government and agency securities are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, quoted market prices, and reference data. Accordingly, government and agency securities are normally categorized as Level 1 or 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the liquidity and transparency of the market.
Money market funds. Money market funds are open-end mutual funds that invest in short-term debt securities. To the extent that these funds are valued based upon the reported NAV, they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Municipal bonds. Municipal bonds are fair valued based on pricing models that take into account, among other factors, information received from market makers and broker-dealers, current trades, bid-wanted lists, offerings, market movements, the callability of the bond, state of issuance, benchmark yield curves, and bond insurance. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of municipal bonds are categorized as Level 2; otherwise, the fair values are categorized as Level 3.
Options and Swaptions contracts. Exchange-listed options contracts are traded on securities exchanges and are fair valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange, and to the extent valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized as Level 1. If valuation adjustments are applied and such adjustments are observable and timely, the fair values of exchange-listed options contracts would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3. Options and swaptions contracts traded over-the-counter (“OTC”) are fair valued based on pricing models and incorporate various inputs such as interest rates, credit spreads, currency exchange rates and volatility measurements for in-the-money, at-the-money, and out-of-the-money contracts based on a given strike price. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of OTC options and swaptions contracts would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.
Restricted securities. Restricted securities, including illiquid Rule 144A securities, issued by non-public entities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently, and therefore the inputs are unobservable. Any other restricted securities valued similar to publicly traded securities may be categorized as Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on whether a discount is applied and significant to the fair value.
Short-term investments. Short-term investments are valued using market price quotations, and are categorized as Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

Total return swaps. Total return swaps are fair valued using pricing models that take into account, among other factors, index spread curves, nominal values, modified duration values and cash flows. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of credit default swaps would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise, the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.
Warrants. Warrants are generally valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange. To the extent these securities are actively traded, and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are generally categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
The summary of the inputs used as of April 30, 2022 in valuing the Funds’ investments is listed after the Schedule of Investments for each Fund.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Security Transactions and Related Investment Income: Security transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on investments are recorded on the basis of specific identification.
Allocation of Operating Activity for Multiple Classes: Investment income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated among the share classes of the Funds based on the relative net assets of each class. Distribution fees, which are directly attributable to a class of shares, are charged to the operations of that class. All other expenses are charged to each Fund or class as incurred on a specific identification basis. Differences in class-specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income for each class, and in turn differences in dividends paid by each class.
Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The TCW Enhanced Commodity Strategy Fund declares and pays, or reinvests, dividends from net investment income quarterly. The other Fixed Income Funds declare and pay, or reinvest, dividends from net investment income monthly. Capital gains realized by a Fund will be distributed at least annually.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, derivative transactions, market discount and premium, losses deferred due to wash sales, excise tax regulations and employing equalization in determining amounts to be distributed to Fund shareholders. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications between paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income (loss), and/or undistributed accumulated realized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income or loss may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in subsequent periods. Any taxable income or capital gain remaining at fiscal year-end is distributed in the following year.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the accompanying financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of each Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) foreign currency denominated securities and other assets and liabilities stated in foreign currencies are translated using the daily spot rate; and (2) purchases, sales, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The resultant exchange gains and losses are included in net realized or net unrealized gain (loss) in the Statements of Operations. Pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations, certain foreign exchange gains and losses included in realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in, or are a reduction of, ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.
Foreign Taxes: The Funds may be subject to withholding taxes on income and capital gains imposed by certain countries in which they invest. The withholding tax on income is netted against the income accrued or received. Any reclaimable taxes are recorded as income. The withholding tax on realized or unrealized gain is recorded as a liability.
Derivative Instruments: Derivatives are financial instruments which are valued based on the values of one or more indicators, such as a security, asset, currency, interest rate, or index. Derivative transactions can create investment leverage and may be highly volatile. A derivative contract may result in a mark-to-market

loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. It is possible that a derivative transaction will result in a loss greater than the principal amount invested. The Funds may not be able to close out a derivative transaction at a favorable time or price.
For the period ended April 30, 2022, the following Funds had derivatives and transactions in derivatives, grouped in the following risk categories:

Counterparty Credit Risk: Derivative contracts may be exposed to counterparty risk. Losses can occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
The Funds’ risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain netted against any collateral held by the Funds.
With exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Funds since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, the credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, the Funds do not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency) of the clearing broker or clearinghouse. Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Funds.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
For OTC derivatives, the Funds mitigate their counterparty risk by entering into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with each counterparty. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Funds and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, the Funds may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. In addition, certain ISDA Master Agreements allow counterparties to OTC derivatives to terminate derivative contracts prior to maturity in the event a Fund’s net assets declines by a stated percentage or a Fund fails to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreements, which would cause the Fund to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty.
Collateral requirements: For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral pledged or received by a Fund.
Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund is reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedule of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold, typically $250,000 or $500,000, before a transfer is required, which is determined at the close of each business day and the collateral is transferred on the next business day. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. The Funds attempt to mitigate counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that the Advisor believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds have implemented the disclosure requirements pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities that requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards.
Master Agreements and Netting Arrangements. Certain Funds are parties to various agreements, including but not limited to International Swaps and Derivatives Association Agreements and related Credit Support Annex, Master Repurchase Agreements, and Master Securities Forward Transactions Agreements (collectively “Master Agreements”), which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. These Master Agreements generally include provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and certain events of default or termination. These Master Agreements also include provisions for netting arrangements that help reduce credit and counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions (“netting arrangements”). The netting arrangements are generally tied to credit-related events that, if triggered, would cause an event of default or termination giving a Fund

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
or counterparty the right to terminate early and cause settlement, on a net basis, of all transactions under the applicable Master Agreement. In the event of an early termination as a result of an event of default under the Master Agreement, the total value exposure of all transactions will be offset against collateral exchanged to date, which would result in a net receivable or payable that would be due from or to the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. Credit related events include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy, failure to make timely payments, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, a material decline in net assets, decline in credit rating or repudiation/moratorium. Any election made by a counterparty to early terminate the transactions under a Master Agreement could have a material adverse impact on a Fund’s financial statements. A Fund’s overall exposure to credit risk, subject to netting arrangements can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the arrangement.
Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given Fund exceeds a specified threshold, net of collateral already in place, typically $250,000 or $500,000 depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Agreement. Collateral under the Master Agreements is usually in the form of cash or U.S. Treasury Bills but could include other types of securities. If permitted under the Master Agreement, certain funds may rehypothecate cash collateral received from a counterparty. The value of all derivative transactions outstanding under a Master Agreement is calculated daily to determine the amount of collateral to be received or pledged by the counterparty. Posting of collateral for OTC derivative transactions are covered under tri-party collateral agreements between the Fund, the Fund’s custodian, and each counterparty. Collateral for centrally cleared derivatives transactions are posted with the applicable derivatives clearing organization.
The following table presents the Funds’ OTC derivatives assets and liabilities by counterparty net of amounts available for offset under an ISDA Master Agreement and net of the related collateral received by the Funds as of April 30, 2022:

Note 3 — Portfolio Investments
Mortgage-Backed Securities: The Funds may invest in MBS which represent interests in pools of mortgages in which payments of both principal and interest on the securities are generally made monthly, in effect “passing through” monthly payments made by borrowers on the residential or commercial mortgage loans which underlie the securities (net of any fees paid to the issuer or guarantor of the securities). Mortgage pass-through securities differ from other forms of debt securities which normally provide for periodic payment of interest in fixed amounts with principal payments at maturity or specified call dates. The Funds may also invest in Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”). CMOs are debt obligations collateralized by residential or commercial mortgage loans or residential or commercial
115

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 3 — Portfolio Investments (Continued)
mortgage pass-through securities. Interest and principal are generally paid monthly. CMOs may be collateralized by whole mortgage loans or private mortgage pass-through securities but are more typically collateralized by portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities guaranteed by Ginnie Mae, Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae. The issuer of a series of CMOs may elect to be treated for tax purposes as a Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit. CMOs are structured into multiple classes, each bearing a different stated maturity. Monthly payment of principal received from the pool of underlying mortgages, including prepayments, is first returned to investors holding the shortest maturity class. Investors holding the longer maturity classes usually receive principal only after shorter classes have been retired. An investor may be partially protected against a sooner than desired return of principal because of the sequential payments. The Funds may invest in stripped MBS. Stripped MBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. In certain cases, one class will receive all of the interest (the interest only or “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal only or “PO” class). The yield to maturity on IOs is sensitive to the rate of principal repayments (including prepayments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and principal payments may have a material effect on yield to maturity. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, a Fund may not fully recoup its initial investment in IOs.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds: The Funds may invest in inflation-indexed bonds, which are fixed income securities whose principal value or coupon is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. Any increase or decrease in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be included as interest income.
Inflation-indexed securities issued by the U.S. Treasury have maturities of five, ten, twenty, or thirty years, although it is possible that securities with other maturities will be issued in the future. The U.S. Treasury securities pay interest on a semi-annual basis, equal to a fixed percentage of the inflation-adjusted principal amount.
If the periodic adjustment rate measuring inflation falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a smaller principal amount) will be reduced. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds, even during a period of deflation. However, the current market value of the bonds is not guaranteed, and will fluctuate. The Funds may also invest in other inflation-related bonds which may or may not provide a similar guarantee. If a guarantee of principal is not provided, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.
The value of inflation-indexed bonds is expected to change in response to changes in real interest rates. Real interest rates in turn are tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if inflation were to rise at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates might decline, leading to an increase in value of inflation-indexed bonds. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increased at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds.
While the values of these securities are expected to be protected from long-term inflationary trends, short-term increases in inflation may lead to declines in values. If interest rates rise due to reasons other than

inflation (for example, due to changes in currency exchange rates), investors in these securities may not be protected to the extent that the increase is not reflected in the bond’s inflation measure.
When-Issued, Delayed-Delivery, To Be Announced (“TBA”) and Forward Commitment Transactions: The Funds may enter into when-issued, delayed-delivery, TBA or forward commitment transactions in order to lock in the purchase price of the underlying security or to adjust the interest rate exposure of each Fund’s existing portfolio. In when-issued, delayed-delivery, TBA or forward commitment transactions, a Fund commits to purchase or sell particular securities, with payment and delivery to take place at a future date. Although the Fund does not pay for the securities or start earning interest on them until they are delivered, it immediately assumes the risks of ownership, including the risk of price fluctuation. If a Fund’s counterparty fails to deliver a security purchased on a when-issued, delayed-delivery, TBA or forward commitment basis, there may be a loss, and the Fund may have missed an opportunity to make an alternative investment.
Prior to settlement of these transactions, the value of the subject securities will fluctuate with market conditions. In addition, because the Fund is not required to pay for when-issued, delayed-delivery, TBA or forward commitment securities until the delivery date, they may result in a form of leverage to the extent the Fund does not set aside liquid assets to cover the commitment. To guard against this deemed leverage, the Fund monitors the obligations under these transactions on a daily basis and ensures that the Fund has sufficient liquid assets to cover them.
Dollar Roll Transactions: The Funds may enter into dollar roll transactions with financial institutions to take advantage of opportunities in the MBS market. A dollar roll transaction involves a simultaneous sale of securities by a Fund with an agreement to repurchase substantially similar securities at an agreed upon price and date, but generally will be collateralized at time of delivery by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories than those securities sold. These transactions are accounted for as financing transactions as opposed to sales and purchases. The differential between the sale price and the repurchase price is recorded as deferred income and recognized between the settlement dates of the sale and repurchase. During the period between the sale and repurchase, a Fund will not be entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold. Dollar roll transactions involve risk that the market value of the security sold by a Fund may decline below the repurchase price of the security and the counterparties may potentially be unable to complete the transaction. There were no such transactions by the Funds for the period ended April 30, 2022.
Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). In a repurchase agreement, the Funds purchase a security from a counterparty who agrees to repurchase the same security at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The MRA permits each Fund, under certain circumstances including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from each Fund. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of the MRA counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. Pursuant to the terms of the MRA, each Fund receives securities as collateral with a market value in excess of the repurchase price. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Fund recognizes a liability with respect to such excess collateral to reflect the Fund’s obligation under bankruptcy law to return the excess to the counterparty. There were no repurchase agreements outstanding as of April 30, 2022.

Note 3 — Portfolio Investments (Continued)
Reverse Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may enter into reverse repurchase agreements. Under a reverse repurchase agreement, a Fund sells portfolio assets subject to an agreement by the Fund to repurchase the same assets at an agreed upon price and date. The Funds may utilize reverse repurchase agreements when it is anticipated that the interest income to be earned from the investment of the proceeds of the transaction is greater than the interest expense of the transaction. During the term of the reverse repurchase agreement, the Funds continue to receive the principal and interest payments on the securities sold. There were no reverse repurchase agreements outstanding during the period ended April 30, 2022.
Securities Lending: The Funds may lend their securities to qualified brokers. The loans must be collateralized at all times primarily with cash although the Funds can accept money market instruments or U.S. Government securities with a market value at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. As with any extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral if the borrowers of the securities fail financially. The Funds earn additional income for lending their securities by investing the cash collateral in short-term investments. The Funds did not lend any securities during the period ended April 30, 2022.
Derivatives:
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts: The Funds enter into forward foreign currency contracts as a hedge against fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked-to-market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Funds as unrealized gains or losses in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When a contract is closed or delivery is taken, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The TCW Core Fixed Income Fund, the TCW Global Bond Fund, the TCW Short Term Bond Fund, and the TCW Total Return Bond Fund entered into forward foreign currency contracts during the period ended April 30, 2022 to hedge against the foreign currency exposure within the Funds. Outstanding foreign currency forward contracts at April 30, 2022 are disclosed in the Schedule of Investments.
Futures Contracts: The Funds may enter into futures contracts. A Fund may seek to manage a variety of different risks through the use of futures contracts, such as interest rate risk, equity price risk, and currency risk. A Fund may use index futures to hedge against broad market risks to its portfolio or to gain broad market exposure. Securities index futures contracts are contracts to buy or sell units of a securities index at a specified future date at a price agreed upon when the contract is made, and are settled in cash. Positions in futures may be closed out only on an exchange or board of trade which provides a secondary market for such futures. Because futures contracts are exchange-traded, they typically have minimal exposure to counterparty risk. Parties to a futures contract are not required to post the entire notional amount of the contract, but rather a small percentage of that amount (by way of margin), both at the time they enter into futures transactions, and then on a daily basis if their positions decline in value; as a result, futures contracts are highly leveraged. Such payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by a Fund as unrealized gains or losses. Because futures markets are highly leveraged, they can be extremely volatile, and there can be no assurance that the pricing of a futures contract will correlate precisely with the pricing of the asset or index underlying it or the asset or liability of a Fund that is the subject of the hedge. It may

not always be possible for a Fund to enter into a closing transaction with respect to a futures contract it has entered into at a favorable time or price. When a Fund enters into a futures transaction, it is subject to the risk that the value of the futures contract will move in a direction unfavorable to it.
When a Fund uses futures contracts for hedging purposes, it is likely that the Fund will have an asset or liability that will offset any loss (or gain) on the transactions, at least in part. When a futures contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. The TCW Core Fixed Income Fund, the TCW Global Bond Fund, the TCW High Yield Bond Fund, the TCW Short Term Bond Fund, and the TCW Total Return Bond Fund utilized futures during the period ended April 30, 2022 to help manage interest rate duration of those Funds. Futures contracts outstanding at April 30, 2022 are listed on the Schedule of Investments.
Options: The Funds may purchase and sell put and call options on a security or an index of securities to enhance investment performance and/or to protect against changes in market prices. The Funds may also enter into currency options to hedge against or to take advantage of currency fluctuations.
A call option gives the holder the right to purchase, and obligates the writer to sell, a security at the strike price at any time before the expiration date. A put option gives the holder the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, a security at the exercise price at any time before the expiration date. A Fund may purchase put options to protect portfolio holdings against a decline in market value of a security or securities held by it. A Fund may also purchase a put option hoping to profit from an anticipated decline in the value of the underlying security. If a Fund holds the security underlying the option, the option premium and any transaction costs will reduce any profit the Fund might have realized had it sold the underlying security instead of buying the put option. A Fund may purchase call options to hedge against an increase in the price of securities that the Fund ultimately wants to buy. A Fund may also purchase a call option as a long directional investment hoping to profit from an anticipated increase in the value of the underlying security. In order for a call option to be profitable, the market price of the underlying security must rise sufficiently above the exercise price to cover the premium and transaction costs. These costs will reduce any profit a Fund might have realized had it bought the underlying security at the time it purchased the call option.
Purchasing foreign currency options gives a Fund the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell specified amounts of currency at a rate of exchange that may be exercised by a certain date. These currency options may be used as a short or long hedge against possible variations in foreign exchange rates or to gain exposure to foreign currencies.
When a Fund purchases an option, it runs the risk that it will lose its entire investment in the option in a relatively short period of time, unless the Fund exercises the option or enters into a closing sale transaction before the option’s expiration. If the price of the underlying security does not rise (in the case of a call) or fall (in the case of a put) to an extent sufficient to cover the option premium and transaction costs, the Fund will lose part or all of its investment in the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options that expire are treated as realized losses.
Options purchased or sold by a Fund may be traded on a securities or options exchange. Such options typically have minimal exposure to counterparty risk. However, an exchange or market may at times find it necessary to impose restrictions on particular types of options transactions, such as opening transactions. If an underlying security ceases to meet qualifications imposed by an exchange or the Options Clearing
119
TCW Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 3 — Portfolio Investments (Continued)
Corporation, new series of options on that security will no longer be opened to replace the expiring series, and opening transactions in existing series may be prohibited.
OTC options are options not traded on exchanges or backed by clearinghouses. Rather, they are entered into directly between a Fund and the counterparty to the option. In the case of an OTC option purchased by a Fund, the value of the option to the Fund will depend on the willingness and ability of the option writer to perform its obligations to the Fund. In addition, OTC options may not be transferable and there may be little or no secondary market for them, so they may be considered illiquid. It may not be possible to enter into closing transactions with respect to OTC options or otherwise to terminate such options, and as a result a Fund may be required to remain obligated on an unfavorable OTC option until its expiration.
Swap Agreements: The Funds may enter into swap agreements. Swap agreements are typically two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors. In a standard “swap” transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments, which may be adjusted for an interest factor. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties are generally calculated with respect to a “notional amount” (i.e., the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate or in a “basket” of securities representing a particular index).
In a total return swap, one party typically agrees to pay to the other a short-term interest rate in return for a payment at one or more times in the future based on the increase in the value of an underlying security or other asset, or index of securities or assets; if the underlying security, asset, or index declines in value, the party that pays the short-term interest rate must also pay to its counterparty a payment based on the amount of the decline. A Fund may take either side of such a swap, and so may take a long or short position in the underlying security, asset, or index. A Fund may enter into a total return swap to hedge against an exposure in its portfolio — such as interest rate risk (including to adjust the duration or credit quality of a Fund’s bond portfolio), equity risk, or credit risk — or generally to put cash to work efficiently in the markets in anticipation of, or as a replacement for, cash investments. A Fund may also enter into a total return swap to gain exposure to securities or markets in which it might not be able to invest directly (in so-called market access transactions).
Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a floating rate of interest on a notional principal amount and receives a fixed rate of interest on the same notional principal amount for a specified period of time. Alternatively, a party may pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate. In more complex swaps, the notional principal amount may decline (or amortize) over time. A Fund’s maximum risk of loss due to counterparty default is the discounted NAV of the cash flows paid to/received from the counterparty over the interest rate swap’s remaining life.
The Funds may write (sell) and purchase put and call swaptions. Swaption contracts written by the Funds represent an option that gives the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to enter into a new swap agreement, or to shorten, extend, cancel or modify an existing swap agreement, on a future date on specified terms. See “Swap Agreements” below. Depending on the terms of the particular option agreement, a Fund will generally incur a greater degree of risk when it writes a swaption than it will incur when it purchases a swaption. When a Fund purchases a swaption, it risks losing only the amount of the premium it has paid should it decide to let the option expire unexercised. However, when a Fund writes a swaption, upon exercise of the option the Fund will become obligated according to the terms of the

Note 3 — Portfolio Investments (Continued)
underlying agreement. During the period ended April 30, 2022, the TCW Core Fixed Income Fund and the TCW Global Bond Fund held written swaptions.
A Fund may enter into credit default swap transactions as a “buyer” or “seller” of credit protection. In a credit default swap, one party provides what is in effect insurance against a default or other adverse credit event affecting an issuer of debt securities (typically referred to as a “reference entity”). In general, the buyer of credit protection is obligated to pay the protection seller an upfront amount or a periodic stream of payments over the term of the swap. If a “credit event” occurs, the buyer has the right to deliver to the seller bonds (or other obligations of the reference entity with a value up to the full notional value of the swap), and to receive a payment equal to the par value of the bonds or other obligations. Credit events that would trigger a request that the seller make payment are specific to each credit default swap agreement, but generally include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, or repudiation/moratorium. When a Fund buys protection, it may or may not own securities of the reference entity. When a Fund sells protection under a credit default swap, the position may have the effect of creating leverage in the Fund’s portfolio through the Fund’s indirect long exposure to the issuer or securities on which the swap is written. When a Fund sells protection, it may do so either to earn additional income or to create such a “synthetic” long position.
Whenever a Fund enters into a swap agreement, it takes on counterparty risk — the risk that its counterparty will be unable or unwilling to meet its obligations under the swap agreement. A Fund also takes the risk that the market will move against its position in the swap agreement. In the case of a total return swap, the swap will change in value depending on the change in value of the asset or index on which the swap is written. When a Fund enters into any type of swap for hedging purposes, it is likely that the Fund will have an asset or liability that will offset any loss (or gain) on the swap, at least in part. Swap agreements may be non-transferable or otherwise highly illiquid, and a Fund may not be able to terminate or transfer a swap agreement at any particular time or at an acceptable price.
During the term of a swap transaction, changes in the value of the swap are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by marking-to-market to reflect the market value of the swap. When the swap is terminated, a Fund will record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transaction and the Fund’s basis in the agreement. Upfront swap premium payments paid or received by a Fund, if any, are recorded within the value of the open swap agreement on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities and represent payments paid or received upon entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between stated terms of the swap agreement and prevailing market conditions (credit spreads, currency exchange rates, and other relevant factors). These upfront payments are recorded as realized gains or losses on each Fund’s Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap agreement.
During the term of a swap transaction, the periodic net payments can be made for a set period of time or may be triggered by a predetermined credit event. The net periodic payments may be based on a fixed or variable interest rate, the change in market value of a specified security, basket of securities or index, or the return generated by a security. These periodic payments received or made by the Funds are recorded as realized gains and losses, respectively. During the period ended April 30, 2022, the TCW Core Fixed Income Fund entered into interest rate swaps to manage duration, the yield curve or interest rate risk by economically hedging the value of the fixed rate bonds which may decrease when interest rates rise

(interest rate risk); the TCW Enhanced Commodity Strategy Fund used total return swap agreements to gain exposure to the commodity market.
Note 4 — Risk Considerations
Market Risk: The Funds’ investments will fluctuate with market conditions, and so will the value of your investment in the Funds. You could lose money on your investment in the Funds or the Funds could underperform other investments.
Liquidity Risk: The Funds’ investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the Funds because they may not be able to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Investments in high-yield securities, foreign securities, derivatives or other securities with substantial market and/or credit risk tend to have the greatest exposure to liquidity risk. Certain investments in private placements and Rule 144A securities may be considered illiquid investments. The Funds may invest in private placements and Rule 144A securities.
Interest Rate Risk: The values of the Funds’ investments fluctuate in response to movements in interest rates. If rates rise, the values of debt securities generally fall. The longer the average duration of a Fund’s investment portfolio, the greater the change in value.
Mortgage-Backed Securities Risk: Each Fund may invest in mortgage-backed securities. The values of some mortgage-backed securities may expose a Fund to a lower rate of return upon reinvestment of principal. When interest rates rise, the value of mortgage-related securities generally will decline; however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage-related securities with prepayment features may not increase as much as other fixed-income securities. The rate of prepayments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may shorten or extend the effective maturity of the security beyond what was anticipated at the time of purchase. The value of these securities may fluctuate in response to the market’s perception of the creditworthiness of the issuers. Additionally, although mortgages and mortgage-related securities are generally supported by some form of government or private guarantee and/or insurance, there is no assurance that private guarantors or insurers will meet their obligations.
Derivatives Risk: Use of derivatives, which at times is an important part of the Funds’ investment strategies, involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Investments in derivatives could cause the Funds to lose more than the principal amount invested. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that the Funds will achieve their objective through the use of the derivatives.
Credit Risk: The values of any of the Funds’ investments may also decline in response to events affecting the issuer or its credit rating. The lower-rated debt securities in which a Fund may invest are considered speculative and are subject to greater volatility and risk of loss than investment-grade securities, particularly in deteriorating economic conditions. The value of some mortgage-related securities in which the Funds invest also may fall because of unanticipated levels of principal prepayments that can occur when interest rates decline. Certain Funds invest a material portion of their assets in securities of issuers that hold mortgage- and asset-backed securities and direct investments in securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets. The value and related income of these securities are sensitive to changes in economic conditions, including delinquencies and/or defaults. Continuing shifts
122

Note 4 — Risk Considerations (Continued)
in the market’s perception of credit quality on securities backed by commercial and residential mortgage loans and other financial assets may result in increased volatility of market price and periods of illiquidity that can negatively impact the valuation of certain issuers held by the Funds.
MBS and ABS are characterized and classified in a variety of different ways. These classifications include a view of the securities’ cash flow structure (pass-through, sequential pay, prepayment-protected, interest only, principal only, etc.), the security of the claim on the underlying assets (senior, mezzanine and subordinated), as well as types of underlying collateral (prime conforming loans, prime non-conforming loans, Alt-A loans, subprime loans, commercial loans, etc.). In many cases, the classification incorporates a degree of subjectivity: a particular loan might be categorized as “prime” by the underwriting standards of one mortgage issuer while another might classify the loan as “subprime.” In addition to other functions, the risk associated with an investment in a mortgage loan must take into account the nature of the collateral, the form and the level of credit enhancement, the vintage of the loan, the geography of the loan, the purpose of the loan (refinance versus purchase versus equity takeout), the borrower’s credit quality (e.g., FICO score), and whether the loan is a first trust deed or a second lien.
Counterparty Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may not fulfill its obligations.
Commodities Risk: The TCW Enhanced Commodity Strategy Fund has exposure to commodity markets through its investments in total return swap agreements. Therefore, the price of its shares is affected by factors particular to the commodity markets and may decline and fluctuate more than the price of shares of a fund with a broader range of investments. Commodity prices can be extremely volatile and are affected by many factors, including changes in overall market movements, real or perceived inflationary trends, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates or currency exchange rates, population growth and changing demographics, nationalization, expropriation, or other confiscation, international regulatory, political and economic developments (e.g., regime changes and changes in economic activity levels), and developments affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods or other weather conditions, livestock disease, trade embargoes, competition from substitute products, transportation bottlenecks or shortages, fluctuations in supply and demand, and tariffs.
Foreign Currency Risk: The Funds may be exposed to the risk that the value of the Funds’ investments denominated in foreign currencies will decline in value because the foreign currencies have declined in value relative to the U.S. dollar.
Foreign Investing Risk: The Funds may be exposed to the risk that the Funds’ share prices will fluctuate with market conditions, currency exchange rates and the economic and political climates in countries where the Funds invest.
Investment Style Risk: Certain Funds may also be subject to investment style risk. The Advisor’s investment styles may be out of favor at times or may not produce the best results over short or longer time periods and may increase the volatility of a Fund’s share price.
LIBOR Risk: The London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) historically has been and currently is used extensively in the U.S. and globally as a “benchmark” or “reference rate” for various commercial and financial contracts, including corporate and municipal bonds, bank loans, asset-backed and mortgage-related securities, interest rate swaps and other derivatives. For example, debt securities in which a Fund invests may pay interest at floating rates based on LIBOR or may be subject to interest caps or floors based
123

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 4 — Risk Considerations (Continued)
on LIBOR. A Fund’s derivative investments may also reference LIBOR. In July 2017, the head of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority announced the intention to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. However, the ICE Benchmark Administration, in its capacity as administrator of USD LIBOR, announced it would extend publication of 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month USD LIBOR by 19 months to June 2023. It is expected that market participants will transition to the use of different alternative reference or benchmark rates. However, although regulators have encouraged the development and adoption of alternative rates such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), there is currently no definitive information regarding the future utilization of LIBOR or of any particular replacement reference rate. Abandonment of or modifications to LIBOR could have adverse impacts on newly issued financial instruments and existing financial instruments that reference LIBOR. The expected discontinuation of LIBOR could have a significant impact on the financial markets and may present a material risk for certain market participants, including investment companies such as the Funds. Abandonment of or modifications to LIBOR could lead to significant short- and long-term uncertainty and market instability. The risks associated with this discontinuation and transition may be exacerbated if the work necessary to effect an orderly transition to an alternative reference rate is not completed in a timely manner. It remains uncertain how such changes would be implemented and the effects such changes would have on the Funds, issuers of instruments in which the Funds invest, and the financial markets generally.
Public Health Emergencies Risk and Impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19): Pandemics and other local, national, and international public health emergencies, including outbreaks of infectious diseases such as SARS, H1N1/09 Flu, the Avian Flu, Ebola and the current outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), can result, and in the case of COVID-19 is resulting, in market volatility and disruption, and any similar future emergencies may materially and adversely impact economic production and activity in ways that cannot be predicted, all of which could result in substantial investment losses.
The COVID-19 outbreak has caused a worldwide public health emergency, straining healthcare resources and resulting in extensive and growing numbers of infections, hospitalizations and deaths. In an effort to contain COVID-19, local, regional, and national governments, as well as private businesses and other organizations, imposed and in some cases continue to impose severely restrictive measures, including instituting local and regional quarantines, restricting travel (including closing certain international borders), prohibiting public activity (including “stay-at-home,” “shelter-in-place,” and similar orders), and ordering the closure of a wide range of offices, businesses, schools, and other public venues. Consequently, COVID-19 has significantly diminished and disrupted global economic production and activity of all kinds and has contributed to both volatility and a severe decline in financial markets.
The ultimate impact of COVID-19 (and of the resulting precipitous decline and disruption in economic and commercial activity across many of the world’s economies) on global economic conditions, and on the operations, financial condition, and performance of any particular market, industry or business, is impossible to predict. However, ongoing and potential additional materially adverse effects, including further global, regional and local economic downturns (including recessions) of indeterminate duration and severity, are possible. It is difficult to assess what the longer-term impacts of an extended period of unprecedented economic dislocation and disruption will be on future economic developments, the health of certain markets, industries and businesses, and commercial and consumer behavior. The ongoing COVID-19 crisis and any other public health emergency that may arise in the future could have a significant adverse impact on the Funds’ investments and result in significant investment losses.

Note 4 — Risk Considerations (Continued)
Bank Loan Risk: There is a risk of investing in corporate loans made by commercial banks and other financial institutions or institutional investors to companies that need capital to grow or restructure, which includes interest rate risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. A Fund may also be subject to the credit risk of other financial institutions and the risks associated with insufficient collateral securing a bank loan, limited available public information about a bank loan, delayed settlement, and less protection for holders of bank loans as compared to holders of registered securities. Bank loans are not registered and otherwise may not be treated as securities under the federal securities laws, meaning investors in loans have less protection against improper practices than investors in securities that are registered under or are otherwise subject to the protections of the securities laws.
For more information on risks related to investing in the Funds, please refer to the Funds’ prospectus and the Statement of Additional Information which can be obtained on the Funds’ website (www.tcw.com) or by calling customer service at 800-FUND-TCW (800-386-3829).
Note 5 — Federal Income Taxes
It is the policy of each Fund to comply with the requirements under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its net taxable income, including any net realized gains on investments, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.
At April 30, 2022, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments for federal income tax purposes was as follows:

Note 13 — Liquidity Risk Management Program
Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act (the “Liquidity Rule”) requires that all registered open-end management investment companies, including the Funds, establish a written liquidity risk management program (a “Liquidity Program”). Under a fund’s Liquidity Program, a fund must assess, manage and periodically review the fund’s liquidity risk, classify the liquidity of each of the fund’s portfolio investments, determine whether to specify highly liquid investment minimum (and, if so, at what level), limit illiquid investments to 15% of fund investments, and establish policies and procedures regarding how and when a fund will engage in redemptions in-kind. Consistent with the Liquidity Rule, the Board has approved the written Liquidity Program for the Funds and has designated a committee of professionals associated with the Advisor to administer the Funds’ Liquidity Program (the “Program Administrator”).
On March 14, 2022, the Board reviewed the Program Administrator’s written annual report (the “Report”) concerning the operation of the Funds’ Liquidity Program for the calendar year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Reporting Period”). The Report addressed the operation of the Liquidity Program and assessed its adequacy and effectiveness of implementation, including, where applicable, the operation of a Fund’s Highly Liquid Investment Minimum (“HLIM”). The Report discussed, among other things: (1) the liquidity risk framework used to assess, manage, and periodically review each Fund’s liquidity risk and the results of this assessment; (2) the methodology and inputs for classifying each of the Fund’s investments into liquidity categories that reflect an estimate of their liquidity under current market conditions; (3) whether a Fund invested primarily in “Highly Liquid Investments” (as defined under the Liquidity Rule) and the operation and monitoring of the HLIM assigned to a Fund, as applicable; (4) whether a Fund invested

more than 15% of its assets in “Illiquid Investments” (as defined under the Liquidity Rule) and the procedures for monitoring for this limit; and (5) the results of stress tests designed to assess liquidity under a hypothetical stressed scenario involving elevated redemptions. The Report concluded that the Liquidity Program was reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk and was adequately and effectively implemented with respect to each Fund during the Reporting Period.
There can be no assurance that the Liquidity Program will achieve its objectives in the future. Please refer to your Fund’s prospectus for more information regarding the Fund’s exposure to liquidity risk and other principal risks to which an investment in the Fund may be subject.
Note 14 — Indemnifications
Under the Company’s organizational documents, its Officers and Directors may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. In addition, the Company entered into an agreement with each of the Directors which provides that the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Director against any expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such Director in any proceeding arising out of or in connection with the Director’s services to the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws, the Maryland General Corporation Law, the Securities Act, and the 1940 Act, each as now or hereinafter in force. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote. The Company has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnification.
Note 15 — New Accounting Pronouncement
In January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-01 (“ASU 2021-01”), “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848)”. ASU 2021-01 is an update of ASU 2020-04, which is in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and particularly the risk of cessation of LIBOR; regulators have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 is elective and applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU 2021-01 update clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments in this update are effective immediately through December 31, 2022, for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of the additional requirements and its impact on the Funds’ financial statements.

TCW Funds, Inc.
Shareholder Expenses (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur ongoing operational costs of the Fund, including management fees and other fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022 (181 days).
Actual Expenses: The first line under each Fund in the table below provides information about the actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second line under each Fund in the table below provides information about the hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account value and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

To Our Valued Shareholders | | |

Dear Valued Investors,
I am pleased to present the semi-annual report for the TCW Funds, Inc. covering the six-month period ended April 30, 2022. I would like to express our appreciation for your continued investment in the TCW Funds as well as welcome new shareholders to our Fund family. As of April 30, 2022, the TCW Funds held total assets of approximately $12.6 billion.
This report contains information outlining the performance and a list of portfolio holdings as of April 30, 2022 for the TCW Funds’ International fixed income and equity funds.
The International Markets
Emerging Markets (EM) has been under pressure since the beginning of the fiscal year for a number of reasons, including inflationary pressures and rising U.S. rates, the global growth slowdown, particularly with respect to China’s zero-COVID policies, and the ongoing Russia/Ukraine war and its impact on commodity price inflation and growth in Europe.
We believe these concerns are likely to persist in the near term. Inflation appears to be approaching peak levels in both emerging market countries and advanced economies (AE), but in our view, will remain sticky for a prolonged period of time. While there may be some reprieve in inflation in the near term due to the gradual normalization of supply chains, the war in Ukraine could still bring additional inflationary pressures that will have varying impacts depending on domestic monetary conditions. Additional Russia sanctions are also possible, putting upside pressure on energy prices, with continued constraints on fertilizer supply likely to result in additional food inflation.
In addition, rising U.S. inflation and the Fed’s hawkish stance has raised concerns about a potential recession. In our view, the Fed will continue to more aggressively
remove excess monetary liquidity until the challenging inflation dynamics move lower.
As for China, short-term headwinds to growth are rising. Some are external (weaker global demand due to the Russia/Ukraine war, higher commodity prices). However, many of the growth headwinds are policy-induced, as officials maintain widespread lockdowns to contain COVID and remain determined to shift investment away from, and promote consolidation in, the property sector. Lockdowns and weak credit demand also impair the transmission of monetary and fiscal stimulus. In our base case, we forecast Chinese growth of 4.25%, with continued COVID lockdowns and weak property investment offset by greater fiscal and monetary support. In addition, we anticipate some easing of regulations on tech and property to help cushion the downturn in the latter. However, in the near term, we do not anticipate a material loosening of China’s zero-COVID policy, particularly not before the fall’s Party Congress, which continues to present downside risks to growth in the near term.
As for Russia/Ukraine, in our base case, the war rages on with multiple points of escalation as various third party-led diplomatic efforts fail to achieve tangible results. The absence of an internationally recognized peace agreement means that all main international sanctions against Russia are likely to remain in place indefinitely, deepening Russia’s economic isolation, and perpetuating global supply disruption for key sectors such as agriculture and metals.
While we see value in emerging markets relative to history and relative to developed markets, we believe that concerns about growth, inflation and the Russia/Ukraine war are likely to persist in the near term. As such, opportunities to add risk in a meaningful way may not present until the second half of the calendar year, as we watch for signs of stabilization in growth and a peak in inflation.

The limited partnership was not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), and therefore was not subject to certain investment restrictions that are imposed by the 1940 Act. If the limited partnership had been registered under the 1940 Act, the limited partnership’s performance may have been lower. |

Increasing values, in absolute terms when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the reference entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreements. |

Note 1 — Organization (Continued)
All of the Funds currently offer two classes of shares: I Class and N Class, except for the TCW Emerging Markets Income Fund, which also offers Plan Class shares. The three classes of a Fund are substantially the same except that the Class N shares are subject to a distribution fee (see Note 7).
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies, which are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and which are consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. Each Fund is considered an investment company under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) No. 946, Financial Services — Investment Companies. Subsequent events, if any, have been evaluated through the date of issuance in the preparation of the financial statements.
Principles of Accounting: The Funds use the accrual method of accounting for financial reporting purposes.
Net Asset Value: The net asset value (“NAV”) per share of each class of a Fund is determined by dividing the Fund’s net assets attributable to each class by the number of shares issued and outstanding of that class on each day the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading.
Security Valuations: Securities listed or traded on the NYSE and other stock exchanges are valued at the latest sale price on the exchange. Securities traded on the NASDAQ stock market (“NASDAQ”) are valued using official closing prices as reported by NASDAQ, which may not be the last sale price. Investments in open-end mutual funds including money market funds are valued based on the NAV per share as reported by the investment companies. All other securities for which over-the-counter (“OTC”) market quotations are readily available, including short-term securities, swap agreements and forward currency contracts, are valued with prices furnished by independent pricing services or by broker-dealers.
The Company has adopted, after the approval by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board,” and each member thereof, a “Director”), a fair valuation methodology for foreign equity securities (exclusive of certain Latin American and Canadian equity securities). This methodology is designed to address the effect of movements in the U.S. market on the securities traded on foreign exchanges that have been closed for a period of time due to time zones differences. The utilization of the fair value model may result in the adjustment of prices taking into account fluctuations in the U.S. market. The fair value model is utilized each trading day and not dependent on certain thresholds or triggers.
Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, including in circumstances under which it is determined by the Advisor that prices received are not reflective of their market values, are valued by the Advisor’s Pricing Committee in accordance with the guidelines established by the Valuation Committee of the Board and under the general oversight of the Board.
Fair value is defined as the price that a Fund would receive upon selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP, the Funds disclose investments in their financial statements in a three-tier hierarchy. This hierarchy is utilized to establish classification of fair value measurements based on inputs. Inputs that go into fair value measurement refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk. Inputs may be observable or unobservable. Observable inputs
41
TCW Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the inputs market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.
| | |
Level 1 — | | quoted prices in active markets for identical investments. |
Level 2 — | | other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.). |
Level 3 — | | significant unobservable inputs (including the Funds’ own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments). |
Changes in valuation techniques may result in transfers in or out of an investment’s assigned Level within the hierarchy. The inputs or methodologies used for valuing investments are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those investments and the determination of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to each security.
The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment. Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized as Level 3.
In periods of market dislocation, the observability of prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition, as well as changes related to liquidity of investments, could cause a security to be reclassified between Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3.
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
Fair Value Measurements: Descriptions of the valuation techniques applied to the Funds’ major categories of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are as follows:
Corporate bonds. The fair value of corporate bonds is estimated using recently executed transactions, market price quotations (where observable), bond spreads, or credit default swap spreads adjusted for any basis difference between cash and derivative instruments. Corporate bonds are generally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; in instances where prices, spreads, or any of the other aforementioned key inputs are unobservable, they are categorized as Level 3 of the hierarchy.
Credit default swaps. Credit default swaps are fair valued using pricing models that take into account, among other factors, index spread curves, nominal values, modified duration values and cash flows. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of credit default swaps would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise, the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Equity securities. Securities are generally valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange. To the extent these securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied, they are generally categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. Restricted securities issued by publicly held companies are generally categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy; if a discount is applied and significant, they are categorized as Level 3. Restricted securities held in non-public entities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently, and therefore the inputs are unobservable. Certain foreign securities that are fair valued using a pricing service that considers the correlation of the trading patterns of the foreign security to the intraday trading in the U.S. markets are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Foreign currency contracts. The fair values of foreign currency contracts are derived from indices, reference rates, and other inputs or a combination of these factors. To the extent that these factors can be observed, foreign currency contracts are categorized as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Futures contracts. Futures contracts are generally valued at the settlement price established at the close of business each day by the exchange on which they are traded. They are categorized as Level 1.
Money market funds. Money market funds are open-end mutual funds that invest in short-term debt securities. To the extent that these funds are valued based upon the reported NAV, they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.
Options and Swaptions contracts. Exchange-listed options contracts are traded on securities exchanges and are fair valued based on quoted prices from the applicable exchange, and to the extent valuation adjustments are not applied, they are categorized as Level 1. If valuation adjustments are applied and such adjustments are observable and timely, the fair values of exchange-listed options contracts would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3. Options and swaptions contracts traded over-the-counter (“OTC”) are fair valued based on pricing models and incorporate various inputs such as interest rates, credit spreads, currency exchange rates and volatility measurements for in-the-money, at-the-money, and out-of-the-money contracts based on a given strike price. To the extent that these inputs are observable and timely, the fair values of OTC options and swaptions contracts would be categorized as Level 2; otherwise the fair values would be categorized as Level 3.
Restricted securities. Restricted securities, including illiquid Rule 144A securities, issued by non-public entities are categorized as Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because they trade infrequently, and therefore the inputs are unobservable. Any other restricted securities valued similar to publicly traded securities may be categorized as Level 2 or 3 of the fair value hierarchy depending on whether a discount is applied and significant to the fair value.
Short-term investments. Short-term investments are valued using market price quotations, and are categorized as Level 1 or Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
U.S. and foreign government and agency securities. Government and agency securities are normally valued using a model that incorporates market observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers, quoted market prices, and reference data. Accordingly, U.S. and foreign government and agency securities are normally categorized as Level 1 or 2 of the fair value hierarchy depending on the liquidity and transparency of the market.
The summary of the inputs used as of April 30, 2022 in valuing the Funds’ investments is listed after the Schedule of Investments for each Fund.

Security Transactions and Related Investment Income: Security transactions are recorded as of the trade date. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. Realized gains and losses on investments are recorded on the basis of specific identification.
Allocation of Operating Activity for Multiple Classes: Investment income, common expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated among the share classes of the Funds based on the relative net assets of each class. Distribution fees, which are directly attributable to a class of shares, are charged to the operations of that class. All other expenses are charged to each Fund or class as incurred on a specific identification basis. Differences in class- specific fees and expenses will result in differences in net investment income for each class, and in turn differences in dividends paid by each class.
Dividends and Distributions: Dividends and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The TCW Emerging Markets Income Fund and the TCW Emerging Markets Local Currency Income Fund declare and pay, or reinvest, dividends from net investment income monthly. The other International Funds declare and pay, or reinvest, dividends from net investment income annually. Capital gains realized by a Fund will be distributed at least annually.

Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies (Continued)
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign currency transactions, derivative transactions, market discount and premium, losses deferred due to wash sales, excise tax regulations and employing equalization in determining amounts to be distributed to Fund shareholders. Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications between paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income (loss), and/or undistributed accumulated realized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income or loss may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in subsequent periods. Any taxable income or capital gain remaining at fiscal year-end is distributed in the following year.
Use of Estimates: The preparation of the accompanying financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of each Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars as follows: (1) foreign currency denominated securities and other assets and liabilities stated in foreign currencies are translated using the daily spot rate; and (2) purchases, sales, income and expenses are translated at the rate of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The resultant exchange gains and losses are included in net realized or net unrealized gain (loss) in the Statements of Operations. Pursuant to U.S. federal income tax regulations, certain foreign exchange gains and losses included in realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in, or are a reduction of, ordinary income for federal income tax purposes.
Foreign Taxes: The Funds may be subject to withholding taxes on income and capital gains imposed by certain countries in which they invest. The withholding tax on income is netted against the income accrued or received. Any reclaimable taxes are recorded as income. The withholding tax on realized or unrealized gain is recorded as a liability.
Derivative Instruments: Derivatives are financial instruments which are valued based on the values of one or more indicators, such as a security, asset, currency, interest rate, or index. Derivative transactions can create investment leverage and may be highly volatile. A derivative contract may result in a mark -to -market loss if the value of the contract decreases due to an unfavorable change in the market rates or values of the underlying instrument. It is possible that a derivative transaction will result in a loss greater than the principal amount invested. The Funds may not be able to close out a derivative transaction at a favorable time or price.

Counterparty Credit Risk: Derivative contracts may be exposed to counterparty risk. Losses can occur if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
The Funds’ risk of loss from counterparty credit risk on OTC derivatives is generally limited to the aggregate unrealized gain netted against any collateral held by the Funds.
With exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps, there is less counterparty credit risk to the Funds since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, the credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, the Funds do not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default (including the bankruptcy or insolvency) of the clearing broker or clearinghouse. Additionally, credit risk exists in exchange-traded futures and centrally cleared swaps with respect to initial and variation margin that is held in a clearing broker’s customer accounts. While clearing brokers are required to segregate customer margin from their own assets, in the event that a clearing broker becomes insolvent or goes into bankruptcy and at that time there is a shortfall in the aggregate amount of margin held by the clearing broker for all its clients, typically the shortfall would be allocated on a pro rata basis across all the clearing broker’s customers, potentially resulting in losses to the Funds.
For OTC derivatives the Funds mitigate their counterparty risk by entering into an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement (“ISDA Master Agreement”) or similar agreement with each counterparty. An ISDA Master Agreement is a bilateral agreement between the Funds and a counterparty that governs OTC derivatives and typically contains, among other things, collateral posting terms and netting provisions in the event of a default and/or termination event. Under an ISDA Master Agreement, the Funds may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments’ payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. The provisions of the ISDA Master Agreement typically permit a single net payment in the event of default including the bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in bankruptcy, insolvency or other events. In addition, certain ISDA Master Agreements allow counterparties to OTC derivatives to terminate derivative contracts prior to maturity in the event a Fund’s net assets declines by a stated percentage or a Fund fails to meet the terms of its ISDA Master Agreements, which would cause the Fund to accelerate payment of any net liability owed to the counterparty.
Collateral requirements: For derivatives traded under an ISDA Master Agreement, the collateral requirements are typically calculated by netting the mark-to-market amount for each transaction under such agreement and comparing that amount to the value of any collateral pledged or received by a Fund.
Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of a Fund is reported separately on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Non-cash collateral pledged by a Fund, if any, is noted in the Schedule of Investments. Generally, the amount of collateral due from or to a party has to exceed a minimum transfer amount threshold, typically $250,000 or $500,000, before a transfer is required, which is determined at the close of each business day and the collateral is transferred on the next business day. To the extent amounts due to a Fund from its counterparties are not fully collateralized, contractually or otherwise, the Fund bears the risk of loss from counterparty non-performance. The Funds attempt to

mitigate counterparty risk by entering into agreements only with counterparties that the Advisor believes have the financial resources to honor their obligations and by monitoring the financial stability of those counterparties. For financial reporting purposes, the Funds do not offset derivative assets and derivative liabilities that are subject to netting arrangements in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Funds have implemented the disclosure requirements pursuant to FASB Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-11, Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities that requires disclosures to make financial statements that are prepared under GAAP more comparable to those prepared under International Financial Reporting Standards.
Master Agreements and Netting Arrangements. Certain Funds are parties to various agreements, including but not limited to International Swaps and Derivatives Association Agreements and related Credit Support Annex, Master Repurchase Agreements, and Master Securities Forward Transactions Agreements (collectively “Master Agreements”), which govern the terms of certain transactions with select counterparties. These Master Agreements generally include provisions for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral, and certain events of default or termination. These Master Agreements also include provisions for netting arrangements that help reduce credit and counterparty risk associated with relevant transactions (“netting arrangements”). The netting arrangements are generally tied to credit-related events that, if triggered, would cause an event of default or termination giving a Fund or counterparty the right to terminate early and cause settlement, on a net basis, of all transactions under the applicable Master Agreement. In the event of an early termination as a result of an event of default under the Master Agreement, the total value exposure of all transactions will be offset against collateral exchanged to date, which would result in a net receivable or payable that would be due from or to the counterparty. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against the right of offset in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of the counterparty. Credit related events include, but are not limited to, bankruptcy, failure to make timely payments, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, a material decline in net assets, decline in credit rating or repudiation/moratorium. Any election made by a counterparty to early terminate the transactions under a Master Agreement could have a material adverse impact on a Fund’s financial statements. A Fund’s overall exposure to credit risk, subject to netting arrangements can change substantially within a short period, as it is affected by each transaction subject to the arrangement.
Master Agreements can also help limit counterparty risk by specifying collateral posting arrangements at pre-arranged exposure levels. Under the Master Agreements, collateral is routinely transferred if the total net exposure to certain transactions under the relevant Master Agreement with a counterparty in a given Fund exceeds a specified threshold, net of collateral already in place, typically $250,000 or $500,000 depending on the counterparty and the type of Master Agreement. Collateral under the Master Agreements is usually in the form of cash or U.S. Treasury Bills but could include other types of securities. If permitted under the Master Agreement, certain funds may rehypothecate cash collateral received from a counterparty. The value of all derivative transactions outstanding under a Master Agreement is calculated daily to determine the amount of collateral to be received or pledged by the counterparty. Posting of collateral for OTC derivative transactions are covered under tri-party collateral agreements between the Fund, the Fund’s custodian, and each counterparty. Collateral for centrally cleared derivatives transactions are posted with the applicable derivatives clearing organization.

Note 3 — Portfolio Investments
When-Issued, Delayed-Delivery, and Forward Commitment Transactions: The Funds may enter into when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment transactions in order to lock in the purchase price of the underlying security or to adjust the interest rate exposure of each Fund’s existing portfolio. In when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment transactions, a Fund commits to purchase or sell particular securities, with payment and delivery to take place at a future date. Although the Fund does not pay for the securities or start earning interest on them until they are delivered, it immediately assumes the risks of ownership, including the risk of price fluctuation. If a Fund’s counterparty fails to deliver a security purchased on a when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment basis, there may be a loss, and the Fund may have missed an opportunity to make an alternative investment.
Prior to settlement of these transactions, the value of the subject securities will fluctuate with market conditions. In addition, because the Fund is not required to pay for when-issued, delayed-delivery, or forward commitment securities until the delivery date, they may result in a form of leverage to the extent the Fund does not set aside liquid assets to cover the commitment. To guard against this deemed leverage, the Fund monitors the obligations under these transactions on a daily basis and ensures that the Fund has sufficient liquid assets to cover them.
Repurchase Agreements: The Funds may enter into repurchase agreements under the terms of a Master Repurchase Agreement (“MRA”). In a repurchase agreement, the Funds purchase a security from a counterparty who agrees to repurchase the same security at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The MRA permits each Fund, under certain circumstances, including an event of default (such as bankruptcy or insolvency), to offset payables and/or receivables under the MRA with collateral held and/or posted to the counterparty and create one single net payment due to or from each Fund. However, bankruptcy or insolvency laws of a particular jurisdiction may impose restrictions on or prohibitions against such a right of offset in the event of the MRA counterparty’s bankruptcy or insolvency. Pursuant to the terms of the MRA, each Fund receives securities as collateral with a market value in excess of the repurchase price. Upon a bankruptcy or insolvency of the MRA counterparty, the Fund recognizes a liability with respect to such excess collateral to reflect the Fund’s obligation under bankruptcy law to return the excess to the counterparty. There were no repurchase agreements outstanding as of April 30, 2022.
Participation Notes: The Funds may invest in participation notes of equity-linked instruments (collectively, participation notes), through which a counterparty provides exposure to common stock, in the form of an unsecured interest, in markets where direct investment by a Fund is not possible. Participation notes provide the economic benefit of common stock ownership to a Fund, while legal ownership and voting rights are retained by the counterparty. Although participation notes are usually structured with a defined maturity or termination date, early redemption may be possible. Risks associated with participation notes include possible failure of the counterparty to perform in accordance with the terms of the agreement, inability to transfer or liquidate the notes, potential delays or an inability to redeem before maturity under certain market conditions, and limited legal recourse against the issuer of the underlying common stock. None of the Funds held participation notes as of April 30, 2022.
Securities Lending: The Funds may lend their securities to qualified brokers. The loans must be collateralized at all times primarily with cash although the Funds can accept money market instruments or U.S. Government securities with a market value at least equal to the market value of the securities on loan. As with any extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral if the borrowers of the securities fail financially. The Funds earn additional income for lending

their securities by investing the cash collateral in short-term investments. The Funds did not lend any securities during the period ended April 30, 2022.
Derivatives:
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts: The Funds enter into forward foreign currency contracts as a hedge against fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked-to market daily and the change in market value is recorded by the Funds as unrealized gains or losses in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. When a contract is closed or delivery is taken, a Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Outstanding foreign currency forward contracts at April 30, 2022 are disclosed in the Schedule of Investments.
Futures Contracts: The Funds may enter into futures contracts. A Fund may seek to manage a variety of different risks through the use of futures contracts, such as interest rate risk, equity price risk, and currency risk. A Fund may use index futures to hedge against broad market risks to its portfolio or to gain broad market exposure. Securities index futures contracts are contracts to buy or sell units of a securities index at a specified future date at a price agreed upon when the contract is made and are settled in cash. Positions in futures may be closed out only on an exchange or board of trade which provides a secondary market for such futures. Because futures contracts are exchange-traded, they typically have minimal exposure to counterparty risk. Parties to a futures contract are not required to post the entire notional amount of the contract, but rather a small percentage of that amount (by way of margin), both at the time they enter into futures transactions, and then on a daily basis if their positions decline in value; as a result, futures contracts are highly leveraged. Such payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by a Fund as unrealized gains or losses. Because futures markets are highly leveraged, they can be extremely volatile, and there can be no assurance that the pricing of a futures contract will correlate precisely with the pricing of the asset or index underlying it or the asset or liability of a Fund that is the subject of the hedge. It may not always be possible for a Fund to enter into a closing transaction with respect to a futures contract it has entered into at a favorable time or price. When a Fund enters into a futures transaction, it is subject to the risk that the value of the futures contract will move in a direction unfavorable to it.
When a Fund uses futures contracts for hedging purposes, it is likely that the Fund will have an asset or liability that will offset any loss (or gain) on the transactions, at least in part. When a futures contract is closed, the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. There were no futures contracts outstanding at April 30, 2022.
Options: The Funds may purchase and sell put and call options on a security or an index of securities to enhance investment performance and/or to protect against changes in market prices. The Funds may also enter into currency options to hedge against or to take advantage of currency fluctuations.
A call option gives the holder the right to purchase, and obligates the writer to sell, a security at the strike price at any time before the expiration date. A put option gives the holder the right to sell, and obligates the writer to buy, a security at the exercise price at any time before the expiration date. A Fund may purchase put options to protect portfolio holdings against a decline in market value of a security or securities held by
52
TCW Funds, Inc.

Note 3 — Portfolio Investments (Continued)
it. A Fund may also purchase a put option hoping to profit from an anticipated decline in the value of the underlying security. If a Fund holds the security underlying the option, the option premium and any transaction costs will reduce any profit the Fund might have realized had it sold the underlying security instead of buying the put option. A Fund may purchase call options to hedge against an increase in the price of securities that the Fund ultimately wants to buy. A Fund may also purchase a call option as a long directional investment hoping to profit from an anticipated increase in the value of the underlying security. In order for a call option to be profitable, the market price of the underlying security must rise sufficiently above the exercise price to cover the premium and transaction costs. These costs will reduce any profit a Fund might have realized had it bought the underlying security at the time it purchased the call option.
Purchasing foreign currency options gives a Fund the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell specified amounts of currency at a rate of exchange that may be exercised by a certain date. These currency options may be used as a short or long hedge against possible variations in foreign exchange rates or to gain exposure to foreign currencies.
When a Fund purchases an option, it runs the risk that it will lose its entire investment in the option in a relatively short period of time, unless the Fund exercises the option or enters into a closing sale transaction before the option’s expiration. If the price of the underlying security does not rise (in the case of a call) or fall (in the case of a put) to an extent sufficient to cover the option premium and transaction costs, the Fund will lose part or all of its investment in the option. Premiums paid for purchasing options that expire are treated as realized losses.
Options purchased or sold by a Fund may be traded on a securities or options exchange. Such options typically have minimal exposure to counterparty risk. However, an exchange or market may at times find it necessary to impose restrictions on particular types of options transactions, such as opening transactions. If an underlying security ceases to meet qualifications imposed by an exchange or the Options Clearing Corporation, new series of options on that security will no longer be opened to replace the expiring series, and opening transactions in existing series may be prohibited.
OTC options are options not traded on exchanges or backed by clearinghouses. Rather, they are entered into directly between a Fund and the counterparty to the option. In the case of an OTC option purchased by a Fund, the value of the option to the Fund will depend on the willingness and ability of the option writer to perform its obligations to the Fund. In addition, OTC options may not be transferable and there may be little or no secondary market for them, so they may be considered illiquid. It may not be possible to enter into closing transactions with respect to OTC options or otherwise to terminate such options, and as a result a Fund may be required to remain obligated on an unfavorable OTC option until its expiration.
During the period ended April 30, 2022, the TCW Emerging Markets Income Fund and the TCW Emerging Markets Multi-Asset Opportunities Fund entered into options to hedge the currency exposure of the Funds.
Swap Agreements: The Funds may enter into swap agreements. Swap agreements are typically two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors. In a standard “swap” transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments, which may be adjusted for an interest factor. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties are generally calculated with respect to a “notional amount” (i.e., the return on or increase in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate or in a “basket” of securities representing a particular index).
53
TCW Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 3 — Portfolio Investments (Continued)
In a total return swap, one party typically agrees to pay to the other a short-term interest rate in return for a payment at one or more times in the future based on the increase in the value of an underlying security or other asset, or index of securities or assets; if the underlying security, asset, or index declines in value, the party that pays the short-term interest rate must also pay to its counterparty a payment based on the amount of the decline. A Fund may take either side of such a swap, and so may take a long or short position in the underlying security, asset, or index. A Fund may enter into a total return swap to hedge against an exposure in its portfolio — such as interest rate risk (including to adjust the duration or credit quality of a Fund’s bond portfolio), equity risk, or credit risk — or generally to put cash to work efficiently in the markets in anticipation of, or as a replacement for, cash investments. A Fund may also enter into a total return swap to gain exposure to securities or markets in which it might not be able to invest directly (in so-called market access transactions).
Interest rate swaps are agreements in which one party pays a floating rate of interest on a notional principal amount and receives a fixed rate of interest on the same notional principal amount for a specified period of time. Alternatively, a party may pay a fixed rate and receive a floating rate. In more complex swaps, the notional principal amount may decline (or amortize) over time. A Fund’s maximum risk of loss due to counterparty default is the discounted NAV of the cash flows paid to/received from the counterparty over the interest rate swap’s remaining life.
A Fund may enter into credit default swap transactions as a “buyer” or “seller” of credit protection. In a credit default swap, one party provides what is in effect insurance against a default or other adverse credit event affecting an issuer of debt securities (typically referred to as a “reference entity”). In general, the buyer of credit protection is obligated to pay the protection seller an upfront amount or a periodic stream of payments over the term of the swap. If a “credit event” occurs, the buyer has the right to deliver to the seller bonds or other obligations of the reference entity (with a value up to the full notional value of the swap), and to receive a payment equal to the par value of the bonds or other obligations. Credit events that would trigger a request that the seller make payment are specific to each credit default swap agreement, but generally include bankruptcy, failure to pay, restructuring, obligation acceleration, obligation default, or repudiation/moratorium. When a Fund buys protection, it may or may not own securities of the reference entity. When a Fund sells protection under a credit default swap, the position may have the effect of creating leverage in the Fund’s portfolio through the Fund’s indirect long exposure to the issuer or securities on which the swap is written. When a Fund sells protection, it may do so either to earn additional income or to create such a “synthetic” long position.
Whenever a Fund enters into a swap agreement, it takes on counterparty risk — the risk that its counterparty will be unable or unwilling to meet its obligations under the swap agreement. A Fund also takes the risk that the market will move against its position in the swap agreement. In the case of a total return swap, the swap will change in value depending on the change in value of the asset or index on which the swap is written. When a Fund enters into any type of swap for hedging purposes, it is likely that the Fund will have an asset or liability that will offset any loss (or gain) on the swap, at least in part. Swap agreements may be non-transferable or otherwise highly illiquid, and a Fund may not be able to terminate or transfer a swap agreement at any particular time or at an acceptable price.
During the term of a swap transaction, changes in the value of the swap are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by marking-to-market to reflect the market value of the swap. When the swap is terminated, a Fund will record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference, if any, between the proceeds from (or cost

of) the closing transaction and the Fund’s basis in the agreement. Upfront swap premium payments paid or received by a Fund, if any, are recorded within the value of the open swap agreement on the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities and represent payments paid or received upon entering into the swap agreement to compensate for differences between stated terms of the swap agreement and prevailing market conditions (credit spreads, currency exchange rates, and other relevant factors). These upfront payments are recorded as realized gains or losses on each Fund’s Statement of Operations upon termination or maturity of the swap agreement.
During the term of a swap transaction, the periodic net payments can be made for a set period of time or may be triggered by a predetermined credit event. The net periodic payments may be based on a fixed or variable interest rate, the change in market value of a specified security, basket of securities or index, or the return generated by a security. These periodic payments received or made by the Funds are recorded as realized gains and losses, respectively. During the period ended April 30, 2022, the TCW Emerging Markets Income Fund and the TCW Emerging Markets Multi-Asset Opportunities Fund used credit default swaps to limit certain credit exposure within each Fund.
Note 4 — Risk Considerations
Market Risk: The Funds’ investments will fluctuate with market conditions, and so will the value of your investment in the Funds. You could lose money on your investment in the Funds or the Funds could underperform other investments.
Liquidity Risk: The Funds’ investments in illiquid securities may reduce the returns of the Funds because they may not be able to sell the illiquid securities at an advantageous time or price. Investments in high-yield securities, foreign securities, derivatives or other securities with substantial market and/or credit risk tend to have the greatest exposure to liquidity risk. Certain investments in private placements and Rule 144A securities may be considered illiquid investments. The Funds may invest in private placements and Rule 144A securities.
Interest Rate Risk: The values of the Funds’ investments fluctuate in response to movements in interest rates. If rates rise, the values of debt securities generally fall. The longer the average duration of a Fund’s investment portfolio, the greater the change in value.
Investment Style Risk: Certain Funds may also be subject to investment style risk. The Advisor’s investment styles may be out of favor at times or may not produce the best results over short or longer time periods and may increase the volatility of a Fund’s share price.
LIBOR Risk: The London Interbank Offer Rate (“LIBOR”) historically has been and currently is used extensively in the U.S. and globally as a “benchmark” or “reference rate” for various commercial and financial contracts, including corporate and municipal bonds, bank loans, asset-backed and mortgage related securities, interest rate swaps and other derivatives. For example, debt securities in which a Fund invests may pay interest at floating rates based on LIBOR or may be subject to interest caps or floors based on LIBOR. A Fund’s derivative investments may also reference LIBOR. In July 2017, the head of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority announced the intention to phase out the use of LIBOR by the end of 2021. Most LIBOR settings were published for the final time on December 31, 2021, although the publication of 1-month, 3-month, and 6-month USD LIBOR was extended until June 2023. It is expected that market participants will transition to the use of different alternative reference or benchmark rates. However, although regulators have encouraged the development and adoption of alternative rates such as the Secured Overnight Financing Rate
55
TCW Funds, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 4 — Risk Considerations (Continued)
(“SOFR”), there is currently no definitive information regarding the future utilization of LIBOR or of any particular replacement reference rate. Abandonment of or modifications to LIBOR could have adverse impacts on newly issued financial instruments and existing financial instruments that reference LIBOR. The expected discontinuation of LIBOR could have a significant impact on the financial markets and may present a material risk for certain market participants, including investment companies such as the Funds. Abandonment of or modifications to LIBOR could lead to significant short- and long-term uncertainty and market instability. The risks associated with this discontinuation and transition may be exacerbated if the work necessary to effect an orderly transition to an alternative reference rate is not completed in a timely manner. It remains uncertain how such changes would be implemented and the effects such changes would have on the Funds, issuers of instruments in which the Funds invest, and the financial markets generally.
Derivatives Risk: Use of derivatives, which at times is an important part of the Funds’ investment strategies, involves risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with investing directly in securities and other traditional investments. Investments in derivatives could cause the Funds to lose more than the principal amount invested. Also, suitable derivative transactions may not be available in all circumstances and there can be no assurance that the Funds will achieve their objective through the use of the derivatives.
Credit Risk: The values of any of the Funds’ investments may also decline in response to events affecting the issuer or its credit rating. The lower rated debt securities in which a Fund may invest are considered speculative and are subject to greater volatility and risk of loss than investment-grade securities, particularly in deteriorating economic conditions.
Counterparty Risk: The Funds may be exposed to counterparty risk, the risk that an entity with which the Funds have unsettled or open transactions may not fulfill its obligations.
Foreign Currency Risk: The Funds may be exposed to the risk that the value of the Funds’ investments denominated in foreign currencies will decline in value because the foreign currencies have declined in value relative to the U.S. dollar.
Foreign and Developing/Emerging Markets Investing Risk: The Funds may be exposed to the risk that the Funds’ share prices will fluctuate with market conditions, currency exchange rates and the economic and political climates in countries where the Funds invest. The Funds are also subject to risks associated with financial, economic and other global market developments and disruptions, including those arising from war, terrorism, market manipulation, government interventions, defaults and shutdowns, and political changes or diplomatic developments, which can all negatively impact the securities markets and cause a Fund to lose value. As one current example, Russia’s recent military incursions in Ukraine have led to sanctions being levied against Russia by the United States, European Union and other countries, which has adversely affected European and global energy and financial markets and thus could affect the value of a Fund’s investments.
Public Health Emergencies Risk and Impact of the Coronavirus (COVID-19): Pandemics and other local, national, and international public health emergencies, including outbreaks of infectious diseases such as SARS, H1N1/09 Flu, the Avian Flu, Ebola and the current outbreak of the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”), can result, and in the case of COVID-19 is resulting, in market volatility and disruption, and any similar future emergencies may materially and adversely impact economic production and activity in ways that cannot be predicted, all of which could result in substantial investment losses.
The COVID-19 outbreak has caused a worldwide public health emergency, straining healthcare resources and resulting in extensive and growing numbers of infections, hospitalizations and deaths. In an effort to
56

Note 4 — Risk Considerations (Continued)
contain COVID-19, local, regional, and national governments, as well as private businesses and other organizations, imposed and in some cases continue to impose severely restrictive measures, including instituting local and regional quarantines, restricting travel (including closing certain international borders), prohibiting public activity (including “stay-at-home,” “shelter-in-place,” and similar orders), and ordering the closure of a wide range of offices, businesses, schools, and other public venues. Consequently, COVID-19 has significantly diminished and disrupted global economic production and activity of all kinds and has contributed to both volatility and a severe decline in financial markets.
The ultimate impact of COVID-19 (and of the resulting precipitous decline and disruption in economic and commercial activity across many of the world’s economies) on global economic conditions, and on the operations, financial condition, and performance of any particular market, industry or business, is impossible to predict. However, ongoing and potential additional materially adverse effects, including further global, regional and local economic downturns (including recessions) of indeterminate duration and severity, are possible. It is difficult to assess what the longer-term impacts of an extended period of unprecedented economic dislocation and disruption will be on future economic developments, the health of certain markets, industries and businesses, and commercial and consumer behavior. The ongoing COVID-19 crisis and any other public health emergency that may arise in the future could have a significant adverse impact on our investments and result in significant investment losses.

Note 10 — Affiliate Ownership

TCW Funds, Inc.
April 30, 2022
Note 11 — Restricted Securities
The Funds are permitted to invest in securities that have legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These securities may be sold privately, but are required to be registered before being sold to the public (exemption rules apply). Private placement securities are generally considered to be restricted except for those securities traded between qualified institutional investors under the provisions of Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). However, the Company considers 144A securities to be restricted if those securities have been deemed illiquid. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. There were no restricted securities held by the Funds at April 30, 2022.
Note 12 — Committed Line Of Credit
The Funds have entered into a $100,000,000 committed revolving line of credit agreement with State Street Bank and Trust Company (the “Bank”) for temporary borrowing purposes, renewable annually. The interest rate on borrowing is the higher of the Federal Funds rate plus 0.10% plus 1.25% or the Overnight Bank Funding rate plus 0.10% plus 1.25%. There were no borrowings from the line of credit as of or during the period ended April 30, 2022. The Funds pay the Bank a commitment fee equal to 0.25% per annum on the daily unused portion of the committed line amount. The commitment fees incurred by the Funds are presented in the Statements of Operations. The commitment fees are allocated to each applicable portfolio in proportion to its relative average daily net assets and the interest expenses are charged directly to the applicable portfolio.
Note 13 — Liquidity Risk Management Program
Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act (the “Liquidity Rule”) requires that all registered open-end management investment companies, including the Funds, establish a written liquidity risk management program (a “Liquidity Program”). Under a fund’s Liquidity Program, a fund must assess, manage and periodically review the fund’s liquidity risk, classify the liquidity of each of the fund’s portfolio investments, determine whether to specify highly liquid investment minimum (and, if so, at what level), limit illiquid investments to 15% of fund investments, and establish policies and procedures regarding how and when a fund will engage in redemptions in-kind. Consistent with the Liquidity Rule, the Board has approved the written Liquidity Program for the Funds and has designated a committee of professionals associated with the Advisor to administer the Funds’ Liquidity Program (the “Program Administrator”).
On March 14, 2022, the Board reviewed the Program Administrator’s written annual report (the “Report”) concerning the operation of the Funds’ Liquidity Program for the calendar year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Reporting Period”). The Report addressed the operation of the Liquidity Program and assessed its adequacy and effectiveness of implementation, including, where applicable, the operation of a Fund’s Highly Liquid Investment Minimum (“HLIM”). The Report discussed, among other things: (1) the liquidity risk framework used to assess, manage, and periodically review each Fund’s liquidity risk and the results of this assessment; (2) the methodology and inputs for classifying each of the Fund’s investments into liquidity categories that reflect an estimate of their liquidity under current market conditions; (3) whether a Fund invested primarily in “Highly Liquid Investments” (as defined under the Liquidity Rule) and the operation and monitoring of the HLIM assigned to a Fund, as applicable; (4) whether a Fund invested more than 15% of its assets in “Illiquid Investments” (as defined under the Liquidity Rule) and the procedures for monitoring for this limit; and (5) the results of stress tests designed to assess liquidity under a hypothetical stressed scenario involving elevated redemptions. The Report concluded that the

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)
Note 13 — Liquidity Risk Management Program (Continued)
Liquidity Program was reasonably designed to assess and manage each Fund’s liquidity risk and was adequately and effectively implemented with respect to each Fund during the Reporting Period.
There can be no assurance that the Liquidity Program will achieve its objectives in the future. Please refer to your Fund’s prospectus for more information regarding the Fund’s exposure to liquidity risk and other principal risks to which an investment in the Fund may be subject.
Note 14 — Indemnifications
Under the Company’s organizational documents, its Officers and Directors may be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses arising out of the performance of their duties to the Company. In addition, the Company entered into an agreement with each of the Directors which provides that the Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Director against any expenses actually and reasonably incurred by such Director in any proceeding arising out of or in connection with the Director’s services to the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws, the Maryland General Corporation Law, the Securities Act, and the 1940 Act, each as now or hereinafter in force. Additionally, in the normal course of business, the Company enters into agreements with service providers that may contain indemnification clauses. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Company that have not yet occurred. However, based on experience, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote. The Company has not accrued any liability in connection with such indemnification.
Note 15 — New Accounting Pronouncement
In January 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2021-01 (“ASU 2021-01”), “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848).” ASU 2021-01 is an update of ASU 2020-04, which is in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and particularly the risk of cessation of LIBOR; regulators have undertaken reference rate reform initiatives to identify alternative reference rates that are more observable or transaction based and less susceptible to manipulation. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2020-04 is elective and applies to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The ASU 2021-01 update clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the discounting transition. The amendments in this update are effective immediately through December 31, 2022, for all entities. Management is currently evaluating the implications, if any, of the additional requirements and its impact on the Funds’ financial statements.

Shareholder Expenses (Unaudited)
As a shareholder of a Fund, you incur ongoing operational costs of the Fund, including management fees and other fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars and cents) of investing in a Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from November 1, 2021 to April 30, 2022 (181 days).
Actual Expenses: The first line under each Fund in the table below provides information about the actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line for your Fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes: The second line under each Fund in the table below provides information about the hypothetical expenses based on each Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account value and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
