About ABNCX
AB Bond Inflation Strategy Class C is an actively managed mutual fund focused on providing inflation-aware fixed income exposure. The portfolio centers on Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities and related instruments, complemented by selective allocations to other high-quality fixed-income sectors to pursue a core-plus profile with an inflation anchor. The strategy is managed to a shorter-duration benchmark—specifically the Bloomberg 1–10 Year TIPS Index—to help limit interest-rate sensitivity while maintaining inflation linkage through direct holdings and derivatives such as total-return swaps tied to TIPS. Within the short-term inflation-protected bond landscape, it targets a balance of real return potential and volatility control by emphasizing shorter maturities and high-quality issuers. The fund’s role in the market is to serve investors seeking explicit inflation protection within a diversified bond allocation, offering an alternative to TIPS-only approaches by incorporating non-Treasury sectors for incremental yield opportunities while retaining a disciplined, inflation-oriented mandate. Morningstar classifies this vehicle within the short-term inflation-protected bond category, reflecting its focus on inflation-indexed exposure and constrained duration.
Performance
ABNCX had a total return of 5.45% in the past year, including dividends. Since the fund's inception, the average annual return has been 4.41%.
