The fund is designed to provide investors with a diversified investment in the bond market, focusing on investment-grade corporate and government securities with a shorter-term horizon. By maintaining at least 80% of its net assets in bonds, the fund aims to offer a stable and managed risk-return profile suitable for investors looking to balance their portfolio with fixed-income securities. The inclusion of mortgage- and asset-backed securities, municipal securities, money market securities, bank obligations, and a limited exposure to foreign issuers, including non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities, enhances the fund's diversification. The strategy to include up to 10% of net assets in non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities of foreign issuers allows the fund to potentially benefit from the performance of international markets while controlling the overall risk.
The core of the fund's portfolio consists of shorter-term, investment-grade bonds issued by corporations and governments. These securities are selected based on their credit quality, aiming to ensure a stable income with managed default risks.
A part of the fund's strategy includes investing in mortgage- and asset-backed securities. These investments offer the fund the ability to gain exposure to the real estate and other asset-backed markets, providing a potential for higher yields compared to traditional government or corporate bonds, with a managed level of risk.
The fund also dips into the municipal bond market, selecting shorter-term securities. Municipal bonds offer the advantage of tax-free interest income for certain investors, depending on their tax status and the laws governing the bonds. This component can enhance the after-tax return of the fund for eligible investors.
As part of its diversified strategy, the fund invests in money market securities and bank obligations. These investments are considered to have lower risk and offer liquidity to the fund, allowing it to meet redemption requests efficiently and manage its cash position effectively.
To enhance diversification and potential returns, the fund includes securities issued by foreign entities, with up to 10% of net assets in non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities. This component exposes investors to international markets, potentially benefiting from global economic growth and currency movements while keeping the overall portfolio risk in check.
