About AEDGX
American Century Emerging Markets Debt Fund Investor Class is an actively managed mutual fund focused on fixed income securities from developing economies. Its primary objective is to provide broad emerging-markets exposure through investment in sovereign, quasi-sovereign, and corporate debt across both U.S. dollar–denominated and local-currency markets. The strategy blends top-down country allocation with bottom-up security selection, seeking diversified credit and interest rate profiles across regions. Benchmarks referenced for portfolio construction include widely used J.P. Morgan emerging-markets debt indices that represent hard-currency sovereigns and local-currency government bonds, reflecting the fund’s dual-market opportunity set. The mandate permits investment across the ratings spectrum, including investment-grade and high-yield issues, acknowledging the varied credit landscape typical of emerging markets. The fund’s design emphasizes risk-aware exposure to macroeconomic, currency, and credit factors that drive returns in developing fixed-income markets, positioning it as a vehicle for investors aiming to access the income and diversification characteristics of emerging-market debt within a professionally managed framework.
