About AINOX

American Century Inflation-Adjusted Bond Fund C Class is a mutual fund specializing in the management of inflation risk through a portfolio of inflation-linked fixed income securities. The fund’s primary purpose is to offer investors both total return and protection against inflation by investing predominantly in U.S. dollar-denominated, inflation-adjusted debt securities, including Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities (TIPS) issued by the U.S. government and its agencies. These securities feature principal values and interest payments that adjust with changes in the Consumer Price Index, thus preserving purchasing power during inflationary periods. The fund maintains a high average credit quality, typically rated AA, with a marginal allocation to non-investment-grade assets. Holdings include a broad diversity of government-issued securities—its portfolio commonly comprises over 140 individual bonds. The fund is designed for investors seeking a way to mitigate the negative impact of inflation on fixed income investments. It plays a vital role in the inflation-protected bond market category by providing access to inflation-hedging instruments, and is primarily available through financial intermediaries.
