Products and Services
- Investment-Grade Corporate Bonds: These are bonds issued by corporations with a strong credit rating, typically rated BBB or higher. They tend to carry lower risk compared to high-yield bonds and provide stable returns over time.
- High-Yield Bonds: Also known as junk bonds, these are bonds that are rated below investment grade (below BBB). While they come with higher risk, they offer potentially higher returns which can contribute positively to the fund's overall income.
- Bank Loans: The fund may invest in loans issued by banks to corporations. These loans often have floating interest rates and can provide a hedge against rising rates, in addition to offering attractive returns.
- Preferred Securities: These securities offer fixed dividends and typically have priority over common stock dividends. Preferred securities can provide a steady income stream while carrying less volatility than common equities.
- Convertible Bonds: These are bonds that can be converted into a predetermined number of company shares. They combine features of both debt and equity, offering potential capital appreciation as well as fixed income.
- Derivatives: The fund may also utilize derivatives to manage risk or enhance income potential. This can include futures, options, and swaps, allowing for greater flexibility in investment strategies.
