Integrity Dividend Harvest Fund Class A Shares (IDIVX)

Overview

The fund is positioned in the investment market focusing on high-yield, high-risk corporate debt obligations, typically known as "junk bonds". It strategically allocates its assets in debt securities that are considered to have a lower quality, targeting those rated Baa by Moody's or BBB by S&P, or even lower. This implies that the fund seeks to benefit from higher interest earnings than those offered by top-tier, low-yield debt securities, albeit at an increased risk of default. In line with its investment philosophy, at least 80% of the fund’s net assets, along with any borrowings for investment purposes, are dedicated to these types of instruments. Despite this high-risk strategy, the fund aims to manage its portfolio's risk profile by maintaining an average maturity of less than ten years for its holdings, attempting to moderate the overall volatility associated with longer-dated debt securities.
