About ACCKX
The American Century Core Plus Fund Class C is a fixed income mutual fund designed to provide investors with a diversified portfolio focused on total return, combining income and capital appreciation. Its primary function is to invest mainly in investment-grade bonds, but it also incorporates exposures to lower-rated and non-traditional fixed income sectors, aiming to enhance returns beyond standard core bond strategies. The fund strategically allocates assets across a broad spectrum of the U.S. bond market, including government, corporate, mortgage-backed, and asset-backed securities, as well as select international holdings.
The fund is benchmarked against the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, which represents the performance of the broader U.S. investment-grade fixed-rate bond market. Class C shares are typically distributed through financial intermediaries and are often selected by investors seeking greater accessibility with lower initial investment requirements, albeit with higher ongoing expenses. The fund’s holdings tend to exhibit moderate sensitivity to interest rate movements and maintain a medium average credit quality.
As a core-plus bond offering, the American Century Core Plus Fund Class C plays a key role for investors and institutions aiming to build or enhance fixed income allocations in diversified portfolios, balancing income potential with risk considerations across various economic environments.
