Diamond Hill Core Bond Fund Class I (DHRIX)

Overview

This investment fund is focused on generating total return through a diversified portfolio predominantly comprised of investment-grade, fixed income securities. This includes a wide range of debt instruments such as bonds, and other U.S. dollar-denominated securities issued by a variety of entities. These entities range across both the public and private sectors within the U.S., as well as including non-U.S. corporations and U.S. affiliates of non-U.S. corporations. A significant characteristic of this fund is its commitment to invest at least 80% of its net assets, in addition to any borrowed amounts for investment purposes, into the aforementioned securities. Its investment strategy allows for a portion or the entirety of its assets to be allocated towards mortgage-related and mortgage-backed securities, based on the investment adviser's discretion.

Products and Services
