About AGBDX
American Century Global Bond Fund R6 Class is an actively managed mutual fund focused on investment‑grade fixed income across developed and select emerging markets. Its primary objective is long‑term total return, achieved by investing at least 80% of assets in bonds under normal conditions, with broad exposure to government, agency, and corporate issuers worldwide and a policy framework that commonly employs currency hedging to the U.S. dollar to moderate foreign‑exchange volatility. The strategy tracks the global opportunity set defined by the Bloomberg Global Aggregate Bond universe for context and risk budgeting, emphasizing diversified interest‑rate and credit risk across the U.S., Europe, and Asia‑Pacific. The R6 share class is designed for group employer‑sponsored retirement plans, offering an institutional pricing structure without distribution fees to support cost efficiency in plan lineups. Within the global bond segment, the fund serves as a core fixed‑income holding that can complement domestic bond allocations by adding cross‑country duration sources, yield curves, and issuer diversification, while maintaining a disciplined, benchmark‑aware approach to risk across sectors and regions.
