PIMCO Income Fund Insti Class (PIMIX)

Overview

The fund is designed to cater to investors seeking diversified exposure to the fixed income market. With a focus on investing at least 65% of its assets in a multifaceted portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments spanning various maturities, this fund offers a dynamic approach to income generation. The instruments may include, but are not limited to, forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts, or swap agreements. This strategic diversity allows for a broad engagement with the fixed income universe, aiming to optimize returns while managing risk.

In addition to its core holdings, the fund exhibits flexibility in its investment strategy by allocating up to 50% of its total assets to high yield securities. These securities are identified as being below investment grade, as rated by major rating agencies such as Moody's, S&P, or Fitch. For securities that are unrated, the fund relies on an internal assessment by PIMCO to determine their suitability for investment. This portion of the portfolio represents a higher risk-return spectrum, aiming to enhance the overall yield of the fund through judicious selection and management of below investment grade assets.
